| When
U.S. Secretary of State William Seward bought Alaska from
the Russians in 1867 for .02 cents an acre, the project was
criticized as 'Seward's Folly'. Now 8 national parks
preserve the treasures of this wonderland and Alaska has
become a favorite vacation spot for nature lovers, native
culture enthusiasts, and sportsmen. Denali National Park,
not far from
Anchorage
(Alaska's largest city), ranks as one of the nations most
popular and largest parks. With 6 million acres of glaciers,
tundra, lakes, streams, valleys and mountains, it is home to
America's highest mountain, Mount McKinley. Easily sighted
and abundant wildlife lent to the creation of Denali's
nickname, "the subarctic Serengeti." When
traveling to Alaska be sure to enjoy the expertise of our
friendly innkeepers at a variety of accommodations from
Bed and
Breakfast Inns to cabins and
vacation rentals.
Many innkeepers are seasoned Alaskans that are eager to
share their love of this Pacific Northwest country.
