About Granite Point

Granite Point is a remote haven located on Resurrection Bay, just 12 miles from Seward, Alaska. Accessible only by boat or helicopter, the property features four private cabins and one larger lodge, all perched on a dramatic cliffside. This unique location offers unparalleled views of Resurrection Bay and the surrounding mountains.

For adventurers, Granite Point is a dream come true. Enjoy direct access to our private beach, hiking trails, and complimentary use of paddleboards and kayaks. Steps from your door, find world-class paddling—explore alongside humpback whales, sea lions, and porpoises while birdwatching, fishing, or simply soaking in the magic of the fjords.

Please note, this is a remote setting. To reach your cabin, guests will ascend four steep staircases and traverse a short 30-yard trail. As such, travelers should be self-reliant, in good physical condition, and prepared for a bit of adventure. We recommend backpack-style packing, as suitcases can be difficult to manage on the stairs. Be sure to bring gear suited to your activities, including sturdy hiking boots, full rain gear, and warm synthetic layers. Additionally, guests should plan to bring their own food and ice for coolers. Bathrooms provided are outhouses or composting toilets

Please note, the Wolf Ridge Cabin is reached by another trail climbing through the rainforest another 500 feet above the bay, so please keep this in mind for packing and access.

Perched high above Granite Point in the lush rainforest of Resurrection Bay, this private, cozy cabin offers the ultimate Alaskan adventure getaway. Handcrafted with care, the custom cabin features a spacious deck with ample seating, perfect for soaking in the stunning views of the forest, ocean, and surrounding mountains. Inside, a well-equipped kitchenette awaits, ready for you to prepare delicious meals, while comfortable queen and double beds upstairs promise restful nights after a day of exploration. Downstairs, you`ll find a luxurious Italian leather couch, recessed dimmable LED lighting throughout, and a gravity-fed water catchment system powering the sink faucet. Filtered drinking water is provided. Electricity is provided by a generator.

Reaching the cabin requires an exhilarating 20+ minute hike through the forest along a beautiful mountain trail. We recommend wearing hiking boots and packing your essentials in backpacks. This cabin experience is for adventurers who embrace a trek through the woods and seek a secluded Alaskan retreat. Once you reach the cabin, you’ll be rewarded with a modern, elegant space and jaw-dropping views that are rare to find in the deep wilderness.

Overall, this experience was both a success and a vacation of a lifetime. Our travel crew was myself, my husband and our two adult children. We managed the climb to the cabin, gear in tow, without incident, but it is not for the faint hearted. Once of the best tips I read was to bring a pair of leather work gloves for the climb. While the rest of the family climbed bare-handed. I found it very useful when navigating the ropes. There was some precipitation every day, so the ropes were wet.We sat on the deck, looking out at the water through the trees and were greeted by two bald eagles on our 1st morning. It was a lovely adventure and an experience/place we will speak lovingly of for years to come.My two primary criticisms are:(1) While our only criteria in choosing a place to stay was that it had enough beds and two toilets, this property DOES NOT have 1.5 baths as represented in the description. It is a single outhouse, nothing else - don't plan on showering during your stay.(2) The host could not articulate what the cabin had in the way of kitchen supplies, so planning meals was a bit like throwing darts at a wall. Oh - and hopefully they have replaced the French press before you arrive. It was broken when we got there, and even if it was fully intact, I think it's an inferior product (plastic, and really only works if you make a full pot of coffee - so if you brought just enough coffee to last for your stay, you are probably screwed on your caffeine intake).

We enjoyed our 5 year anniversary at the Wolf Lodge after honeymooning at the Fox Den in 2019. My husband and I cannot say enough great things about the cabins. It’s all the peace and quiet we need. You meet people from around the world and there’s opportunity for outdoor activities. Want to stay in? Download some movies BEFORE you go. Sometimes you get a rainy day. Thank you Jeff for everything!

The hike up was grueling. Going down wasn't much better. But the view is 100% worth it! It rained for our day on the ridge so we stayed inside playing games. Well stocked rustic cabin with comfy mattresses. Even the loo has a view. :)

We loved staying at this cabin and would definitely do so again. If you're looking to experience 'real Alaska', this is the place. It's inaccessible by road and you'll be isolated to an idyllic location on Resurrection Bay where you can have a beach day, kayak, paddleboard, or hike to a glacier, or just enjoy your patio view of the bay. You should know: The hike to the cabin is not easy. It's very steep and through slipper terrain up a steep grade. Jeff placed ropes there that helped us out a ton, but we were commenting that a few of our guy friends back in Chicago would not have made that hike, and you have to make it every day to leave your cabin. So word would be: pack lightly, pack in a single backpack type of bag (you literally can't carry multiple bags on this hike), and wear good shoes. Bring your bug repellent. Know that there's plenty of firewood there and you can make clean water by boiling the rainwater collection system he's created, so you don't have to bring a TON.The glacier hike is not marked super well towards the top, which we didn't mind. This was the 'wildest' Alaska hike we've been on since the trail really isn't there, it's just a suggestion of where to hike with a lot of roots and brush in the way. Our bear country hike method was to carry a portable speaker, and it worked wonderfully. The hike is advanced. There is a rock slide with medium/large boulders and you need to know where to step (and where not to). The top of the mountain is sort of a knife's edge view of the glacier, but we had lunch there and loved it.The beach: Loved it! Great kayaks, too. I would highly recommend packing an inflatable beach lounge/sofa for yourself and whoever's in your party. These are cheap and we used ours since the beach is rocky and loved it. They doubled as 'rafts' in shallow water, too. If you're into trying out Alaska cannabis, this was a great place to experience it!In summary, loved the place, plan to visit again, and is probably as close to 'real alaska' as you can get. I think the price of the cabin is probably somewhat tied to the publicity of the show for Building Alaska, but not a bad deal nonetheless. We've also rented dry cabins on Kenai Lake.
