Great First-Time Stay. I'll Be Back!

I had an exceptional experience at Sheep Mountain Lodge. As a first-time solo traveler, I wasn't sure what to expect. The property was beautiful, and they made my stay so comfortable — great cabin, food, and people. Thank you!

Great spot ! The food was great, the view was great. No real negatives, WiFi is slow but that’s expected when you are on the side of a mountain pretty far away from regular utilities. Northern lights were easy to see.

Being the time in between seasons, the upgrade to a premier cabin was a nice surprise. The key was left for me with great instructions. I will recommend this lodge to my Alaskan friends who winter in the area.

Beautiful view! They offer meals delivered to your room (off season when the restaurant closes)there is only one restaurant close by. There is no tv, which was fine with us but we didn’t know that ahead of time. Bed was comfortable but super high off the floor. Our cabin smelled like a dog which made me feel like it had not been cleaned well. Helicopters taking off & landing in the parking lot gets annoying, for that reason they should offer a decent discount to people staying in the cabins.

We enjoyed the soak in the enclosed hot tub. It was just what we needed to soak our sore achey muscles. We saw some Dall sheep on the mountain behind the lodge, had to use binoculars to appreciate the sheep. The room size is generous, comfortable and plenty of hot water. Each unit is a separate cabin, nice for privacy. Hiking trails full of fall foliage behind the cabins. The restaurant offered many delicious food options. The housekeeping staff found my watch by the hot tub area where I had left it and turned it in to lost and found. I was so happy when I went an hour back to get my watch and really appreciated their honesty in taking care of my forgotten watch. Love this place and would recommend highly for anyone traveling the Glenn highway as either a place to eat or stay a night or two.
