Alaska Family Vacations


Our unique Alaska family vacations have something for everyone. Your family will feel welcome from the moment you arrive in the picturesque community of Cordova, Alaska. Cordova, Alaska borders the Chugach National Forest, and is on the eastern shores of Prince William Sound. These natural habitats are a winning combination for exciting Alaska family vacations. 

You will be pleasantly surprised when you check in at our distinctive Alaska Lodging facilities. Kid friendly rooms, and ample outside play area. Rocky beaches for exploring, tide pools to look for interesting critters, and salmon jumping right offshore are just a few of the highlights of this natural playground. Or watch the kids catch salmon as you relax in your chair.

Whether you choose a 2-3 hour trek across the ice or a more adventurous ice climbing excursion, you won’t be disappointed. Our Alaska family vacations feature very knowledgeable guides, which are always eager to lead you on a hike to learn more of the natural history of this region. Temperate rainforests, alpine tundra, coastal wetlands and beach habitats are their specialties.
