We loved our stay here! The view of the river is beautiful. One night we got take out and sat on the deck to eat dinner. It is especially nice that every bedroom has its own bathroom. There are a couple places to eat close by in Moose Pass. We drove to Seward one morning to do the Kenai Fjords Glacier and Wildlife cruise.
