Where to Stay and Travel in Alaska

There are several regions in Alaska to explore. The most populous is the South central region, but fishing, hiking, and other activities in the wilderness are beautiful and unspoiled. You'll find the network of roads convenient in getting around. The largest city in the state, Anchorage, is in this area and you'll find many restaurants and shopping destinations. Walk the city streets or visit the Alaska Aviation Museum or the Alaska Native Heritage Center to gain some background knowledge of the region. Get even closer to the animals at the Alaska Zoo. Pick the perfect spot for Alaska vacation rentals and you'll be close to it all. When you need some down time, the family can relax in the spacious accommodations and not feel claustrophobic, which can be a challenge in a hotel or motel room.

You can also find great tours of the wilderness near Anchorage. Take a glacier cruise that starts just 60 miles away, or cruise other areas of the coastal waters. Kenai is another area you can be situated in and watch the cruise ships and fishing charters come and go in Seaward Harbor. The Kenai Peninsula also offers cruises through Kenai Fjords National Park. Seals, sea lions, and whales frequent the waters and you can see them in their natural surroundings. Many people think Alaska is distant and expensive, but you can vacation Alaska at a reasonable price; many rentals prove to be an affordable option considering the amenities that are usually included.

Travel to the interior and you can find yourself in Fairbanks, the second biggest city in Alaska. This area is a year-round destination, and families can enjoy the shopping and art galleries with native art and jewelry. You can also kayak on the Chena River or snowmobile through town on rough winter days. A network of roads spreads out from the city, so you can take long drives through the wilderness and take in the wondrous scenery that spreads for miles and miles. The state's lands also spread up past the Arctic Circle and southwest toward the Central North Pacific. Alaska vacation rentals are accommodating to most budgets, and you can save even more by stocking up the kitchen and making healthy meals in your home away from home.
