Alaska Luxury Fishing Lodge

Our resort on Kodiak Island is amongst an elite group of Alaska lodges - priding itself on providing a level of service that is refreshingly old fashion in its emphasis on quality. Our only focus is our guests' comfort and satisfaction! This focus is reflected in all our guest-oriented activities. From the moment the floatplane sets down to the time you reluctantly leave for home, you enjoy a sense of being part of our happy family!


Our Alaska fishing lodge can accommodate up to twelve (12) guests in our six private suites. Unless working with private groups of 12 we choose to keep our guest level between 6 and 8  for the highest level of service and comfort. You will certainly enjoy our park-like setting, cozy lodge atmosphere featuring cedar and pine interiors, Alaska native artifact display, and numerous wildlife pictures and paintings.

We feature deluxe bay view bedrooms each with a private full-sized bath, a spectacular waterfront dining room, and outrageously good meals. Our amenities include our executive lounging and recreation room and spacious covered veranda for wildlife vewing. We specialize in providing our guests a relaxed vacation atmosphere, highlighting personalized service and comfort.




At the end of your adventurous day sport-fishing and sightseeing, relax in our executive lounging area, feast on our tasty hor-d'oeuvres, and enjoy your favorite drink while recounting your day's exploits with your best friends. (Though we don't provide liquor, you'll find a generous supply of ice, mixers, and soft drinks in the lounging/wet-bar area to meet your needs.) Our appetizer platters are heaping with fresh crab, smoked salmon, shrimp, cheeses, homemade dips, crackers, and other marvelous culinary masterpieces from our gourmet chef. Restrain yourself from overindulgence - I know it's hard, but leave enough room for your main course and all the trimmings!

Our recreation area has a wet bar, satellite television, VCR and videotape movies, and a card table for your enjoyment. There is a good selection of nature tapes about Alaska. You can also hook up your video camera to view your daily fishing action if you wish.


Dining at our resort on Kodiak Island is always an event! You will really enjoy your delicious meals while taking in our expansive view of the Kodiak Mountains and Larsen Bay. Your main course will range from Halibut Florentine or Halibut stuffed with crabmeat, King Salmon with Hollandaise sauce, to Porterhouse or Prime rib steaks with au jus - on the lighter side, how about Fettuccini Alfredo with smoked salmon? Savor our homemade breads and desserts!

Though we enjoy showcasing our area's fresh seafood, we realize 'one shoe' doesn't fit all our guests' palates, therefore, our head chef prepares an assortment of delicious Alaskan cuisine to make sure everyone has a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience.

Fishing Lodge Staff

Quality Control
Upon booking your Alaska Sport-fishing or Hunting Adventure to Kodiak Island we promptly mail a travel "Guest Planner' form that enables us to have your sport-fishing license prepared prior to your arrival, alert the gourmet chef of any dietary restrictions and give attention to your special requests. Our special effort to customize your vacation truly distinguishes our operation from others. We ask our guests to mail back the planning forms and a copy of the airline itinerary.


Leaving Home
You will be contacted a few days prior to the beginning of your fishing adventure to Kodiak Island. This gives you the last minute opportunity to share any special requests prior to the commencement of your adventure.


When you arrive in Alaska


We are committed to providing the highest quality adventure for our clients. As with any remote destination, a "hassle-free" travel experience is an important part of your vacation. To make sure you have no surprises during your flights to and from Kodiak Island, please take a moment to read information that follows.

Some of our trip packages include roundtrip charter air service from Anchorage to the Lodge in Larsen Bay. One of the most important factors in flying throughout Alaska is weight. On these flights we allow for the weight of the passenger, plus 50lbs of luggage and one box of fish of 50 lbs on the return flight to Anchorage. On flights from Kodiak to Larsen Bay we allow for the weight of the passenger, transportation of two 50 pound boxes of fish and 50 pounds of personal luggage. Most first-time travelers tend to over pack, so please bring only what you will need.

If you wish to go over the listed weights or want to bring more fish home, all related expenses will be your responsibility. There are several options available; For example, you may choose to send your clothing home via the U.S. Mail. A second option is to upgrade the aircraft to accommodate more weight.

If you are flying through Kodiak City be aware that local scheduled flights allow for the passenger and 50lbs only: additional weight is charged at a rate of $.60 cents per pound. The major airlines will list weight allowances on their websites and additional weight is solely you responsibility.
