“The Lodge surrounded by
Kachemak Bay State Park”
In hand crafted cabins, visitors to Alaska's
Sadie Cove Wilderness Lodge are transported to a place where the troubles
of the outside world fall away like leaves in the wind. Reminiscent of the
bygone Viking era with details so often seen in the Norwegian countryside,
construction of the lodge has been an ongoing labor of love for
owner/operators Keith and Randi Iverson. Each
building is unique, and comfortable, with stunning views of Sadie
Cove and far off Mt. Augustine (One of the few
active volcanoes in the USA). To the East of the lodge, around the bend, are
3 rarely used but picturesque summer cabins. From the lodge and throughout the
remainder of the
extensive view, you will see no other man-made objects as we are one of the
very few pieces of private property inside the State Park.

Standard American
electricity is provided by an in-house hydroelectric
system operating from a clear and swift stream which tumbles
down the mountains from the high snowy peaks of Sadie
Cove. Self-sustaining and independent,
the lodge is completely off the "grid".
Lodge guests (no more than 10) are housed in
5 handcrafted private
cabins. Wonderful meals are served in the dining room and on the outer deck. A cozy, spacious lounge is available to
guests for reading, gaming, visiting, or just relaxing and enjoying
the sunset.

Kachemak Bay cabin detail |
As our world becomes increasingly technological, we have
come to feel a need for those rare places which retain their natural
beauty and individuality. Visiting Sadie Cove is its own reward in
that respect and still there are those special touches and small
details which remind us of days when the words
and "personality" and "character" had deeper meaning. Sadie
Cove Lodge is not like any other place you have ever been and, being in
the wilderness, it is definitely not predictable. Visiting this lodge
can easily be a lifelong highlight for those who seek adventure and a
place that is pleasantly apart from the "norm.".
 Uncrowded except for a night sky glittering with stars and,
on special occasions, the Northern Lights, Sadie Cove Wilderness Lodge
offers you several cozy cabins to suit the tastes of the adventurer
and the romantic alike.
Far
from the unimaginative cookie cutter resorts so often seen these days, when you
awaken at Sadie Cove there is no doubt that you are in a special place
creatively and ingeniously designed to survive Alaska's harsh winters
and bask in Alaska's warm summers.
Sadie Cove is a unique wilderness sanctuary where a person can
personally recharge in absolute comfort.

All of the cabins have running water,
toilets, 110 volt electricity,
heat, fresh air-dried linens and blankets, a view of the
cove, an outdoor deck, high thread count linens,
bathrobes, Alaskana Library, and gracious housekeeping services. Two
of the cabins have wood fires for romantic evenings and a secondary heat
source.

Organic architecture has helped the lodge buildings to blend into
the environment and become an integral part of the vista. With a
reputation for tidiness, comfort, and good companionship, you can't get much closer to nature than a peaceful yet
adventurous stay
at Sadie Cove.
What to expect - Private Lodge cabins are not so much posh as
they are practical. They are super-comfortable, but not opulent, and the
lodge itself is not a sterilized, sanitized,
Disneyland / Las Vegas
fantasy hotel experience. Sadie Cove is a hand-built Eco-Lodge - self
sustainable and non polluting - full of comfort, raw natural wood,
character, wilderness, good company, and adventures. It is a year-round
home and full-service lodge that was cut out of the beach and the wildland of Alaska totally by hand, beginning in 1972 when Kachemak Bay
pioneer Keith Iverson first landed on the beach in his Klepper Kayak.
