About Port Alsworth, AK

Port Alsworth is a census-designated place (CDP) in Lake and Peninsula Borough, Alaska, United States. It is 165 miles (266 km) by air southwest of Anchorage. Its population was 186 at the 2020 census, up from 159 in 2010. It is the most populated community in the borough. Port Alsworth was founded in 1950 by Babe Alsworth (1909-2004), a missionary and bush pilot, and Mary Alsworth (1923-1996), who was the town's first postmaster. Port Alsworth is located on private land within Lake Clark National Park and Preserve and is the site of the national park's field headquarters. Samaritan's Purse operates a lodge for wounded United States military veterans located in the town for "Operation Heal Our Patriots" (OHOP). There is a summer camp there called "Tanalian Bible Camp" where youth, ages 8–19, from the surrounding villages can attend. From the summer of 2013 to the spring of 2014, the local Tanalian School underwent renovation and a dearly needed expansion. The renovation tripled school square footage, bought new furniture, and doubled the size of the gym. Lake Clark Resort, a private resort in Port Alsworth, operates The Farm Lodge, which is open from June to October (depending on weather conditions).
