From the reviews

Beautiful hotel with an antique vibe, and a nice restaurant. The owner/receptionist is such a nice and helpful gentleman who has apparently been running this hotel for 25 years. The only thing is some of the rooms is quite a lot smaller than the others. The room I stayed in has hardly standing rooms for the two of us.

Getting married at Historic Skagway Inn

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
