The hotels grounds, restaurants, and lobby are beautiful and stunning. But, the rooms are terrible. Old, dated, musky, just totally busted. Carpet is so dirty, we didn't want to walk barefoot. They need to re-do these rooms! They should be ashamed to charge upwards of $700 dollars for hotel rooms straight out of 1998. It's sad bc the actual hotel facility is so nice. Nordic spa is a must!

Discover the most popular places to visit in Gateway

This is one of my favorite places to take kids, family, and friends when they come for a visit. It is a truly "Alaska" experience to be able to wander among and feed the Reindeer here. And the scenery on the way can't be beat! Landscape wise, Pioneer Peak is the star of the show on this trip along the Old Glenn Highway & Bodenburg Loop Road.
