Alaska Highway Lodging

Bob Jameson – Kenai, Alaska.

Talk to any two travelers along the Alaska Highway and you will get two totally different ideas of the perfect lodging for their vacations. Realizing this, we decided to expand the camping ideas by adding information on other types of lodging available along the Alaska Highway today.

Types of lodging available along the Alaska Highway include the many of the familiar hotel chains you're use to at home, lots of smaller chain hotels and even more private hotel and motels for you to choose from. There are some that are reminiscent of the old roadhouses of past and others that are more of a retreat than an overnight lodging.

Also available along the Alaska Highway are an assortment of cabin rentals. These are becoming more popular as people slowly find out more about where they are and what they offer. As for value, the Alaska Highway cabins for rent can be some of the best deals and also can be a bit expensive depending upon where you're at. As a rule, the cabin rentals are very close to the prices of a motel room in the same area but offer a far more northern experience for travelers.

Alaska Highway Hotels and Motels

During the main travel months of June through August it is suggested that you consider making reservations if you want a room at any of the major hotels in places like Watson Lake, Whitehorse Yukon or Teslin Yukon and also up in Tok, Delta Junction or Fairbanks Alaska. Also, in Dawson Creek B.C. the hotels and motels are quite busy with all of the industrial construction going on these days. In Fort Nelson you almost need to look at booking your rooms at least a few weeks in advance, thankfully some of the hotels are now offering camping at their locations too.
