What Makes an Award-Winning Glamping Experience?
Yesterday, we shared the exciting news that Alaskan Glamping was recognized as the '2026 Best Glamping Retreat Global'.
Today, we'd like to share what we believe makes that recognition possible.
It starts with a simple idea: Alaska should be easier to experience.
Not everyone owns camping equipment. Not everyone wants to spend hours setting up camp after a long drive. And not everyone is ready to trade comfort for adventure.
That's where glamping comes in.
At Eklutna Lake, guests arrive to find comfortable beds, quality linens, locally crafted pottery, campfire seating, and the essentials already in place. Instead of focusing on logistics, they can focus on what they came for—exploring trails, paddling the lake, spending time with family, and enjoying Alaska's incredible wilderness. A retreat experience.
But the experience goes beyond the accommodations.
Our guests are supporting a local Alaska-owned business, local artisans, outdoor recreation, and community partnerships that help strengthen Alaska's outdoor lifestyle.
Every reservation helps us continue investing in experiences that connect people with the places that make Alaska special.
To everyone who has stayed with us, shared a post, left a review, referred a friend, or supported our journey—thank you. This award is a reflection of the community that has grown around Alaskan Glamping.
We can't wait to welcome the next guests who choose to experience Alaska a little differently.
