    Hot cider $4
    Dawn C.

    My friends and I came to listen to the live music, and ended up staying for hours. We enjoyed canned ale, hot tea and playing uno, while the customers enjoyed the band. The lodge offers food and initially we planned to get pie. Free water was available ( self serve). The lodge sells drinks and food, which you order at the counter and take to open seats once ready. It was a pretty positive way to enjoy an afternoon . We arrived after lunch and others were enjoying nachos and desserts, but my group was full from a ho hum meal. So drinks were perfect, followed by hot tea. The lodge has a large patio outside, but being from Tucson it was chilly outside so I didn't hang outdoors. Some of the patrons staying in a cabin we could see at a distance in a sauna then cold plunge. More power to them. The mountain views were spectacular. We had a great time. The seating is a bit random mishmash of tables and chairs. My group of four shared seating at a picnic table and benches, while others were at tables and chairs. Friendly service.

    The cutest a frame cafe! The lady at the front was so friendly and suggested the basil grilled cheese. It did not disappoint! Everyone get the potato salad. It's to die for. We also got a nice warm hot cup of cider which was perfect. They had some little notebooks of visitors too:)

    View from the door of our cabin in the morning, was rainy and foggy and so surreal.

    Breathtaking views , nice lofted cabin. Had a compostable toilet in a small bathroom like room. No running water, had nice heater built in, water in a small cooler with cups. Towels provided for the bigger building with showers.

    Bedroom window  I'm in love!

    Great location to be away from "the city" but still be close enough to stores and businesses in case you need something. Everything is pretty painless will booking (booked 5 months out just in case). You're contacted via email with directions to cabins and how to get in. Once you're in you will be delighted with this cute cabin! We had cabin for and it was perfect for 4. Cute loft on top with a full and twin beds, queen bed in the fr room downstairs. We came to see the lights and while we didn't see it at the cabin we were close to the mountain to drive up. Of course the lights were out dancing in Wasilla while we hunted up the big mountain! We also came straight to the cabins from Happy Trails Kennel/ Alaska Mushing School. We went on a bomb dog sled ride with a knowledgeable Itidarod finisher! The owner of the place is a 4 time Itidarod winner. They not on Yelp so here's my review! Lol if you're checking out the cabins then you gotta go lights hunting AND take a dog sled ride at the Happy Trail Kennels! You will be making forever memories with your loved ones or maybe just by yourself is good too!

    Stayed one night at Hatcher Pass Lodge recently. We knew we were in for a rustic stay, since we already knew the cabins didn't have running water, but were excited to take in the views and enjoy some nature. Who I assume to be the owner, Hap, was very friendly as we checked in. The cabin had an amazing view down the valley, just beautiful. The cabins were definitely rustic, not too fancy, not super super clean, but definitely what we expected. The cabin itself did not have running water but there were bathrooms and a shower in the main lodge. We played around in the snow with our dog. There happened to be about 6ft of snow while we were there, and more coming down. We went to the lodge restaurant for a drink before dinner and were very disappointed. The woman who served us must not have had any experience mixing drinks. We ordered two drinks - a rum and coke, and a vodka with fruit juices (was on their menu of "special" drinks). The rum and coke came out in pint sized glass, with an entire can of coke in it and about 1oz of rum (same with the vodka drink). Long story short, upon ordering more rum and cokes, the woman working there decided we were "cut off" after just three drinks...each with less than a shot in them. Frustrated, we ordered dinner there anyway since hadn't brought food with us. The food was okay. It was overpriced but as the lodge is a distance from town, that was understandable. Portions weren't huge but we left full. Bottom line: great place to stay if you want to explore the Hatcher Pass area and don't need any ammenities, but restaurant is so-so. We have heard it's better for dessert.

    Cute little lodge located in the gorgeous, picturesque Talkeetna Mountains offering private cabins and meals. We came here with friends for a light lunch before our hike in Hatcher Pass. Their menu is a little limited and pricey for what they offer, but is still a nice place to just sit back and soak in the amazing alpine views. It was a bit chilly and rainy when we were there last week, but I can only imagine how beautiful the mountain peaks would be in the Winter completely covered in fresh, white snow.

    New Years 2012, where were you?! I was huddled inside at Hatcher Pass Lodge! It may have been -18 degrees, but it was still a rip-roaring good time. From the coal fireplace to the sweeping vistas, Hatcher Pass Lodge is a must see. Also, MythBusters did a special on cabin fever here!

    Best pie I have ever had!

    I you are going to Hatcher's pass, you must stop by here for a slice of pie. It's an adorable little cafe and lodge. I didn't stay here, but just ate at the cafe. I ordered the razzleberry pie with some ginger lemon tea. They serve the pie warm and a la mode if you want. I just had plain pie. It was so perfectly made. Just simple wholesome ingredients. Beautiful. Delicious. I would go back all the way to Alaska for this pie.
