Wild Beauty, Deeply Personal Luxury
Alaska isn’t just a place on the map for me — it’s a place written across my heart. I was lucky enough to live there, and to this day, it remains one of the most awe-inspiring, soul-stirring places I’ve ever known. There’s a kind of magic to Alaska: wild, untamed, humbling — and absolutely unforgettable.
At Edge of Wonder Travels Unlimited, we design handcrafted wilderness experiences that honor Alaska’s grandeur while cocooning you in exclusive comfort. Here’s our insider’s guide to Alaska’s most extraordinary luxury wilderness lodges.
Top Handpicked Wilderness Lodges
Sheldon Chalet, Denali National Park
Perched on a nunatak five miles from Denali’s summit, this five-room lodge offers jaw-dropping views, glacier treks, and aurora-spotting right from your bed.
Pro Tip: We arrange private helicopter transfers and curated glacier adventures — because you deserve to experience the top of the world in true style.
Tutka Bay Lodge, Kachemak Bay
A remote coastal lodge where forest meets sea, blending rustic charm with top-tier cuisine (led by a James Beard Award-winning chef!).
Insider Tip: Ask us about private cooking classes or foraging excursions with the chef herself.
Winterlake Lodge, Along the Iditarod Trail
Set along the historic dog sledding route, this family-owned lodge offers heli-hiking, wildlife spotting, and jaw-dropping mountain serenity.
Pro Tip: We can add a private helicopter glacier trek and arrange for you to meet real Iditarod mushers.
Stillpoint Lodge, Halibut Cove
An eco-luxury lodge accessible only by boat, featuring gourmet organic cuisine, yoga by the sea, and personal kayaks for exploring the wild coves.
Insider Tip: Book during shoulder season for even more intimate encounters with whales, otters, and eagles.
Ultima Thule Lodge, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park
The definition of “off-grid luxury.” Deep in America’s largest national park, Ultima Thule offers custom bush plane adventures into untouched wilderness.
Pro Tip: We’ll tailor a flightseeing safari just for you — glaciers, grizzlies, wildflower valleys — wherever the spirit takes you.
