Experience Wasilla Alaska! | ||
 Wasilla
Alaska is
simply amazing! Nestled between the Matanuska and Susitna valleys, Wasilla abounds with recreational opportunities. In fact, this region of Alaska is known by Alaskans as the place "where Alaskans come to play". It is my humble opinion that any vacation in Alaska that didn't include time spent in Wasilla would be less than complete. This is lake country and Wasilla is located on two of the largest in the area... Wasilla Lake and Lake Lucille. When my wife and I first moved here in 2001, Wasilla just felt like home. We purchased a home here and have lived here ever since. We fell in love with all of the lakes (there are a ton of them here) and the mountain views...particulary that of Pioneer Peak looming in the near distance. Where to Stay in Wasilla Like
I said
earlier, if your vacation in Alaska doesn't include time spent in the
Wasilla and Palmer Alaska area, you will have missed out big time!Wasilla has only one national brand hotel and that is the Lake Lucille Best Western Resort. Additionally there is the GrandView Inn which was completely just a couple short years ago. It is practically brand new and it is conviently located and can't be missed as one arrives in Wasilla. One of the best things about Wasilla lodging is it's strong Bed and Breakfast population. If you like to stay at Bed and Breakfasts, then you'll love your choices. Last year Sheri and I discovered the Agate Inn and it currently sits a top of our favorite places to stay in Wasilla list. Granted, I haven't stayed at all of the hotels and bed and breakfasts in Wasilla, but The Agate Inn is something different. Click here to learn and see more about the Agate Inn. Places to Eat in Wasilla AlaskaThere will be more to come on this, but one place that is worth your while is the Wasilla Family Restaurant. Sheri and I took our youngest son Ethan out for breakfast the other morning. We had eaten there several times before. The food has always been good and I was happy to see, this last time, that they had upgraded the quality of their menu. I'm talking about the printing of their menu. It now includes photos of the food, a bit closer to what a restaurant like Denny's has for a menu. An IHOP opened in Wasilla several months ago. It took business from The Wasilla Family Restaurant initially, but I was happy to see The Wasilla Family Restaurant literally packed on this particular Saturday morning. The IHOP was also packed also, of course. Wasilla has it's share of other fast food places, if fast food is what you are looking for. Choices include A&W, Kentucky Friend Chicken, Arby's, Wendy's, McDonalds, Subway, Quiznos, Pizza Hut and Burger King. I'm sure that I've left a few out, but just rest assured that you won't go hungry while in Wasilla. << Return from Wasilla Alaska to Homepage Keep up to date by subscribing to our newsletter | ||
