We do not cut corners at Alaska Sportsman's Lodge. We take great pride in providing excellence in the customer service side of the destination sport fishing lodge business. You will find that we have a staff that is dedicated to ensuring you have a safe and enjoyable experience while with us. Our guides and pilots do this for their livelihood'this is not a part-time deal for them'this is their career.
The culinary program is world-class. Our professional chefs will create three delicious meals per day for you while here with us.
The location of the lodge is key. We are on the Kvichak River which connects Lake Iliamna (Alaska's largest lake) to Bristol Bay. We have superb fishing right in front of our lodge on the river and we use boats to access the many different fishing spots on the Kvichak. We also have aircraft that will fly you to the numerous nearby rivers to fish for the day.
Our location provides us the unique opportunity to either fish the home water or fly out for the day. The important point is that you have high quality fishing right in front of the lodge should weather prevent you from flying out on a particular day.
