Looking for a basecamp that feels like anything but roughing it? Currant Ridge offers some of the most comfortable and complete accommodations for camping in Alaska, tucked deep in the Wrangell–St. Elias wilderness. Located near the end of The McCarthy Road, these custom-built log guest houses are spacious, fully furnished, and ready to help you recharge after a day of epic Alaskan exploring.

Each guest house has a private deck with mountain views, a full kitchen, luxurious queen bed, and Wi-Fi—yes, even way out here. After hiking the shimmering ice on a Root Glacier Hike or visiting the old copper mill at Kennicott Glacier, you’ll be glad to have a warm tub, a real bed, and a peaceful place to relax.

This is also a prime launch point for rafting the Kennicott & Nizina Rivers, wildlife watching, or just sipping coffee on the deck with nothing but mountains and quiet. If you’re looking to go remote without giving up the good stuff, Currant Ridge has you covered.
