On the far side of Skilak Lake from the Sterling Highway, reached by boat, this lodge is not about fishing -- it's about being in a beautiful place, hiking to tree line, lake kayaking, and enjoying quiet in an environmentally sustainable place. The tent cabins and log cabins are hidden in the woods on the lakeshore, connected by gravel paths, and the feeling is authentically wild and remote, but there are flush toilets and hot showers in the shower house and the food offered in the central lodge is terrific. You can stay as part of one of their package trips or come for the lodge alone. Log cabins are $50 more than tent cabins; a cabin with its own bathroom is $100 more.
Facilities:
Restaurant (family style); boating and other outdoor equipment

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
