Great place for a wedding

Marissa and Jessica were very helpful and communicative the entire process of planning a wedding the the opposite coast! When everything came together that day, after not even seeing the resort, we were so pleased! The family had a great time on the boats, around the fire, in the sauna and around the trails! Our time there could not have been better! The cabins were super comfortable! We loved our stay!! Thank you Marissa for all of your attention to detail, for going above and beyond and for making ‘suggestions’ to lead us to the right decisions!! Totally recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Meier Lake

As a native Alaskan-owned business, we sought to find a property that spoke to the beauty of Alaska, and the tranquility we hold so dearly. Meier Lake met all of those requirements, and after 70 years of serving the community as a youth camp and conference center, we sought to expand on that special relationship with our neighbors to offer a place where even more meaningful memories can be made.
The endless attention to detail and the stunning natural beauty combine to offer our guests a one-of-a-kind experience unlike any other in Alaska. We invite you to come and visit us and see for yourself because we're certain you'll fall in love with Meier Lake the moment you pass through our gates.

For weddings, please visit our website or send us a request at info@meierlake.com
