Anchorage International Airport is 100 miles north of Gwin's Lodge. There is a ground shuttle service between Anchorage International Airport and Homer, Alaska that provide two-way service and stop to drop-off at Gwin's Lodge. The ground shuttle service has only one trip per day so those flying in the afternoon or evening may need to stay in an Anchorage hotel overnight before catching the next day's shuttle.There is commuter plane service from Anchorage International to Kenai Airport located west of Gwin's Lodge for 50 miles. Unfortunately there is no ground transportation from this airport.

Employees who plan to drive from the Lower 48 to Alaska should ensure their vehicle is in good working condition with spare tire and sleeping bags/blankets in case of breakdown between towns. Add 7 days to the Lower 48 travel necessary to reach the U.S. - Canadian border to finish their drive to Cooper Landing. It is approximately 2400 miles from the border. This provides a reasonable level of miles driven per day to avoid fatigue and arrive safely. Employees are encouraged to contact lodge management to update their progress in reaching Cooper Landing. Key waypoints to consider calling are the border crossing, Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and Whitehorse, Yukon. Gas stations are often long distances apart and certainly are not open around-the-clock. By planning your driving times to ensure reaching refueling spots during business hours and avoiding passing up on refueling opportunities, you will avoid running out of gas.
