For your special occasion, Alpenglow lodge is an unforgettable experience.
The lodge is two stories and has many large windows allowing for incredible mountain views overlooking Anchorage. There is a lawn area in front of the lodge for outdoor ceremonies and, for those who are interested in additional views of the Chugach range, our chairlift is also available to rent (weather permitting). The lodge has a buffet style kitchen with a large front serving counter.
We have open catering, which means you can use whatever caterer you like, self cater or even have a potluck if you want!
We have parking for up to 500 cars and a front door turnaround for easy access by guests, catering staff, and musicians.Our normal lodge rental period is Memorial Day weekend through September.
Availability
The Alpenglow Lodge summer rental season runs from mid-May to the end of September, due to variable road and weather conditions in May and October.
During the ski season special arrangements can be made to rent part of the lodge while we are open, or the whole lodge when closed. We are an operating ski area on weekends and some school holidays from whenever there is enough snow to open, until mid-April. Additional road plowing costs may apply.
We have just a handful of weekend dates left for summer 2017:
- Friday May 26 through Saturday May 27
- Friday June 2
2018 lodge rentals will be accepted beginning June 1, 2017, however we’re happy to show the lodge and talk about our offerings at any time. Send us an email or inquiry (below) to get details on your preferred dates.
