This high-end sportfishing lodge—often cited among the top three luxury lodges in Alaska—offers guests an opportunity to fish in both the saltwater and freshwater areas of Admiralty Island with local guides. Rates include round-trip transportation from Juneau, all meals, guided activities, and up to 100 pounds of fish processing and freight to Juneau.
One of Hoonah's few lodging options, the Icy Strait Lodge is a great base from which to explore this small, friendly Tlingit community. Rooms include private baths; one suite with a full kitchen is also available. The lodge, open year-round, has a restaurant and bar; live music is performed occasionally, so if noise is a concern, ask for a room facing the bay away from the action. Boat and vehicle rentals can be arranged through the lodge staff.
On a secluded beach outside Angoon, on Killisnoo Island, this lodge offers all-inclusive three- and four-night stays in waterfront cabins of varying sizes and configurations, making it a good choice for groups. In addition to saltwater and freshwater fishing excursions, guests can choose from a range of eco-tours that include flightseeing, heli-hiking (helicopter delivery to a mountain top), and kayaking. Rates include round-trip transportation from Juneau.
