The Last Resort
New Barrow, the Fort Lauderdale of the North

Ever since Neptune reclaimed most of our vacation coastline, people have been searching for a warm sublunary spot for recreation. Come up to New Barrow, a year round summertime vacationland. We welcome you to the sumptuous New Barrow Tropicana, a five-star resort on 400 verdant acres, located on the balmy Arctic Ocean. Come and lounge, refresh and renew yourself under sheltering palms. And, between May 10 and August 22, New Barrow is the place to be for Sun worshipers-old sol never sets.

Thrill to the trill of cardinals, bluejays, meadowlarks, bob-whites, and red-bellied woodpeckers. The New Barrow zoo of native animals is populated by alligators, chameleons bobcats, panthers, cougars, opossums and southern flying squirrels and other indigenous species. New Barrow thermometers never dip below 85º. The ubiquitous mosquitoes aren’t a problem anymore—since we installed our electronic Skeeter-Beater equipped with an octentol lure.

In keeping with the climate and overall natural milieu, our lush rooms and suites have beach house décor. We are only moments from ivory-colored sand beaches. A championship golf course lies only 100 yards from our door . Enjoy scuba diving and deep-sea fishing and be sure to catch our breathtaking aurora borealis.

Visit the fascinating natural history (Ice Age) museum. Be enthralled by wax models of an impressive array of antique creatures such as polar bears, grizzly bears, red foxes, arctic foxes caribou, moose, snowy owls, wolves, whales, beaver, Dall sheep, bearded, ringed and spotted seals, caribou--- and bowhead, finback, and humpback whales.

The Ethnographic history museum too has charming exhibits from bygone days, all in wax. See tableaux of Aleuts hunting sea lions, Arctic Athabaskans stalking Porcupine Caribou, an Inuit woman sewing a hooded jacket with sinew thread and a bone needle. Imagine Iñupiaq pursuing a whale, Yup'ik fishing for salmon and Nenet hunting reindeer.

Take our commodious launch ten miles out from the pier to do the best swordfishing in the U.S. and get a look at the site of "old" Barrow’s shoreline.
