Our lodge is located in a beautiful river valley at the end of the Matanuska Glacier. We provide food and lodging for visitors of the glacier. We are looking for outgoing adventurous folks to help us by cooking in our restaurant. We are more than happy to teach someone the necessary skills to succeed. The lodge has a dining room, hotel rooms, gas station, as well as a state park that we take care of. Our location allows our employees to spend their free time hiking, ice climbing, glacier trekking, four wheeling, flight seeing, skiing & enjoying nature. Ultimately we hope to pass along our love for the outdoors and encourage the next generation to protect and share the natural resources that surround us.

We pay our staff at least $13.00 per hour (more based on experience). Cooks and waitstaff share tips. We offer free housing as well as one free meal per shift.

It’s hard to put into words just how much you’ve come to mean to us over the past three years. What started as a Workaway traveler and turned into a true friendship—and honestly, you’ve felt like family from the very beginning.

I came here in the summer of '23 for the first time, fresh off backpacking through Central America and absolutely fell in the love with the place and the surrounding nature and people, so much so that after some more months of backpacking, I returned last summer as well, and had an even more amazing experience glacier trekking, white water… read more

We were lucky to have Marina join our lodge for a summer. She came with a little experience, and a whole lot of desire to learn. She wasn't afraid to try new things, get her hands dirty, or put in a hard days work. It was refreshing to have someone just out of high school with such a great work ethic.

Working up in Alaska was undoubtedly the best summer I've had. Kate and Russ were always patient and took time to answer all my questions and explain the tasks. I learned a lot about working at a restaurant and at a state park and these places became my second home in no time. Because of the variety of tasks I was given, I felt like there was a… read more

Kate and Russel run a lodge/restaurant that is so beautiful and so respected by them and the community it deserves the upmost care and energy put into it. If the great Alaskan mystic doesn’t inspire you enough to put all the soul and energy you got into the lodge, Kate and Russel’s charisma and passion for all things lodge and life will.

Josi was a great addition to our summer team. She had endless energy and was always willing to help out with any project we had to complete. She would show up every morning with a great story to share. We enjoyed hearing about her hikes, encounters with wildlife, and road trips she took on her days off. I don't think she every sat still!

This was my first experience with workaway I know it could sounds as a cliche but I couldn't ask for a better host. Honestly.

Josue came to us on a quest to improve his English. He arrived as a quiet yet extremely hard worker. He was wonderfully self motivated and picked up the daily routine around the lodge in no time. His determination to learn and perfect his English was noteworthy. All his coworkers and us enjoyed teaching him all the english slang and terms needed… read more

This workaway was one of the many hidden gems in Alaska. I can’t put into words how special Alaska and this lodge really is. I spent the summer working at the lodge and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I was able to learn so much from my experiences here and see and travel all around the beautiful state of Alaska.

Kate and… read more Russel the owners are some of the greatest people you will ever meet who were always their to help and teach me. It also helped that they had the same sarcastic humor I ( and the rest of my coworkers) have and we really had fun in the workplace. They picked a great team for the summer we had a great culture and everybody working really got along. It went so far beyond just learning to work at the restaurant any question I asked they really took the time out to help me learn it and really fully understand. Which was great for me because I love to learn. They went out of their way to teach me how to change oil in my car, brake pads, some of the business side of things and many other things. They also took time out to make me feel comfortable, show me around the area and make all the different people working at the lodge really fit in. They really boosted my confidence and now I feel like I can attack any project with the right resources.

I really enjoyed the actual job especially during the super busy months of summer.if you love to keep moving and working this job is great because there is usually always something to do at the lodge. Working as a server will really change the way you interact with people and I can say after this summer my conversations skills have drastically improved. Some of the tasks I got to enjoy were serving, very basic bartender, cleaning lodge rooms, making deserts or whatever was needed in the kitchen, basic maintenance and cleaning around the lodge and so many other tasks. This job also really help me save up and fund some of my future travels.

Going into town will take over an hour either way but the drive is amazing and hard not to enjoy. If you need a lot of people around this might not be the best place for you as most people only come to visit local area for a day. But this was great for me because I really enjoyed disconnecting and just enjoying nature and living. It helps to be self sufficient to live in area. The local area is full of hikes and many tours and things to do. If you enjoy nature like me you will never be bored especially during the summer with the excess of sunlight. I can go on and on about this experience as it really has help shape the next chapter of my life. If you have the oppurtunity to work at the lodge I highly recommend it. I also can’t thank Kate and Russel enough for everything they did for me and everything I was able to learn from this summer. I will definitely be back to Alaska as it has a special place in my heart.

Hope to see you guys soon. Thank you again.

Tim arrived at our lodge after a 4000+ mile road trip from the East Coast to Alaska with a grin on his face more than ready to get to work.
