A very nice place to take the family when visiting Wasilla.
Off season, and couldn't find anyone in the morning, but would gladly stay there again. Great view. Spacious room.
Great rooms, the view of the lake and mountains was perfect.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
Sofa bed was broken. Staff arranged for us to have another room additional room so we could sleep 3. Bathroom could be updated. Caulking around edges of shower were missing. Food still in refrigerator. It would be nice to have extra coffee supplies and towels for both rooms since we were there for multiple nights.
The staff was very nice, when we arrived our room had a missing remote so the TV did not work. The young lady who came to the room to check it out did not have a solution. The next day the person took a remote from the restaurant who had 5 of them and had us use it. Wonderful thinking outside of the box. The room and furniture were fantastic but the mattress was very soft so I did not do so good but my husband slept fine.
Beautiful location right on the lake! Fun watching the fish jumping in the lake and planes taking off and landing right at the dock. The attached restaurant is fantastic!! Service is very good. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom could use some TLC and updating. Just beware when staying here...They close at 9:00! We were driving from the airport and got a call they would leave the key to our room in a lock box on the door and they gave us the code as the front desk would be closed when we arrived. They do not offer breakfast or even coffee in the morning. They open at 11:00! If you are staying over a weekend be sure you have plenty to toilet paper as they closed all day on Monday and don't open again until 4:00 on Tuesday!! There is no one on the premises to assist you. A lady would come by daily and ask if you need towels but there wasn't any daily room service to make the bed or clean etc.
Do yourself a favor and book a room upstairs. We stayed on the first floor for the first part of our visit and it was very noisy. We went away for the weekend and stayed upstairs upon our return and it was quieter.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. The best part was the restaurant! Great food!
Great location overlooking the lake, very peaceful and beautiful view. A desk in the room would be good for working & teams/zoom meetings. Might be nicer to keep the big gate between the accommodations and the kitchen shut, trash gets a little stinky in the heat. Restaurant is fantastic, great food and great service. The live music was an unexpected and really nice touch.
Could use a pale ale on the beer menu, but i made do lol. Enjoyed my stay - thanks!
We got there about 7:30pm and COULD not find where to check in or even to get help. Had to call the after hours number -and no answer. Called the facility director who helped me. Finally got our room. VERY clean and amazing views. Quiet and just had a great experience and plan on going back!!
Amazing lodge overlooking a beautiful lake. Rooms were appointed nicely and very clean. Service and food at the restaurant were excellent. Would highly recommend.

No heat. Had to call and get an electric heater because the boiler was off. First night it was 58 degrees in the room.
The Mat-Su Resort is a great spot to explore the valley. Centrally located, rooms were of good size and comfortable amenities. The attached restaurant offered quality meal options, parking was easy, and the views were breathtaking!
Kitchenette amenities could be improved to support those choosing to have food options in the room.
The lake view was outstanding! Food quality at Everett’s was also very good - rooms are quite large, LOVED the private balcony - and the mattress and bedding were among the most comfortable we’ve had in any resort stay EVER!!
Overall, we would definitely stay here again winter or summer… walk to the restaurant from rooms was a tad precarious when iced over, and we had to buy a stopper for the bathtub — no other improvements we would suggest for this wonderfully affordable and lovely place!!
