Alaska Sunset View Resort

Bring your family to Independence Mine State Historical Park and learn what it was like to live and work in one of Alaska's largest gold mining camps! You'll begin your tour of the Independence Mine State Historical Park at the Mine Mangers's House, which houses the Visitor Center and museum. Inside you'll see displays about mining, natural history and the Independence Mine story. Then head out and take a self-guided interpretive tour through the mine camp!

The Sunset View Resort is the ideal location for your executive retreat, team building, or business conference! Everything the staff does is aimed at making your visit a success, and each event is treated as special and unique. With so many property and room options, plus an astounding amount of amenities, your event will be a truly unique experience for you and your coworkers!

The McKinley View Inn is more than spacious enough to accommodate your extended family (in supreme luxury, no less)! This 10,000 square foot Inn features 11 bedrooms, one of which has two bedrooms inside the Suite. The large family kitchen and family room with a library are both divine, while the fireplace is fantastic for reminiscing by. The Inn holds 24+ comfortably, so invite everyone!

The Resort's lake front property offers a beautiful setting for your event! The grounds are complete with landscaped gardens, a waterfall, and pond, with Denali and Big Lake as a gorgeous backdrop. Look forward to uninterrupted time with your family and friends with full house privileges. Make breakfast together, mingle in the large living room, or enjoy a fire by the lake, then go on with the ceremony!

For pristine beauty, head over to Nancy Lake State Recreation Area. It's one of the few flat, lake-studded landscapes in Alaska preserved for recreation purposes. The recreation area's clear waters are ringed with unspoiled forests, and provide tranquil settings for canoeing, fishing, hiking and camping. In winter, the rolling topography is ideal for cross-country skiing, dog mushing and snowmobiling.

Nearby Millers Riverboat Service has served Alaska's fisherman since 1978 and has been in continuous operation for 37 years. They fish the Deshka River, Little Susitna River, and various tributaries of the Big Susinta drainage, offering half day and multiple day fishing charters. Go catch the big one!

For unparalleled romance, make sure to reserve the Eagles Nest. This well-appointed bedroom features sumptuous linens and luxury amenities, including a formal great room. Everything is at your fingertips, including a satellite TV, private single Jacuzzi tub, and luxury bath salts for maximum relaxation.

All rooms are luxurious, but we'll single out one in particular: The Hideaway is a spacious suite which has a large lounging couch to relax or read a book. It has a King size bed with the option of adding a roll-a-way. Finally, there's a Jacuzzi for two AND a large dressing room. What more could you want?

Adjacent Big Lake is indeed big, with 67 miles of shoreline. Popular activities include swimming, camping, boating, fishing, jet skiing and tour boat rides in the summer. In the winter, there are snowmobile competitions, dog mushing, ice fishing and cross-country skiing all around (and on top of) the lake!
