Fantastic place with a superb staff! Food is wonderful!
If you're into fly fishing and are lucky enough to catch one of the salmon runs then it's going to be hard to find a better place. Food is amazing, staff are friendly and the fishing guides are a great bunch of young men.
The experience of a lifetime. The entire staff here @ the Wilderness Place or Professional, and make you feel as if your with close Family. They go out of their way to offer you that, Experience of a lifetime. From Fishing pro’s that can have you Fly Fishing writhing hours, to the Lodge Staff that will warm your belly (*****) and the Soul; if Alaska doesn’t grab your soul first.
Outstanding hospitality in a scenic setting. Chef prepared meals are varied and tasty. Fishing guides ensure your outings are stress free. I highly recommend.
It's been just over 25 years since my visit to the lodge. I can remember the visit like it was yesterday! The staff was excellent, and the food was superb! I can recall one day questioning what time it was, as I was getting hungry. Our guide replied "11". I told him "wow, that's great! It's still early!" He laughed and said "no no no, it's 11PM! You guys have been fishing for over 13 hours!" I guess time does fly when you are having the time of your life! A few word of advise: be cautious of the "clear water". The water is so extremely clear that one cannot gage the depth as one step is 2 feet deep, and your next step is over 12 feet deep! And yes that water is cold, even in August! Watch out for the Germans. As I harvested my next day's bait from my current days catch. The Germans snatched and ate my bait (salmon eggs), within seconds of turning my back! I still smile when thinking of that. So if you love fishing (or even if you so so like it), and want to make lifelong memories; take this trip to the Lodge!
