SUMMER
May 26 – September 26
Fishing, Sea Kayaking, Hiking, Fly-out Bear Viewing, and Wildlife Cruises
Set among the Sitka spruce and salmonberry bushes on our property, at the foot of a mountain and on the edge of the sea, our eight private guest cabins, central main lodge, and Nordic-themed spa emphasize comfort within the surrounding wilderness. Many guests come for the fishing, but others choose to build their stay around a mix of outdoor experiences.
Our family has shaped Kodiak Raspberry Island Remote Lodge for over four decades, spanning three generations, for new and returning travelers who value Alaska’s wilderness without surrendering comfort, safety, or thoughtful care. We invite you to join us here and experience what makes this part of Alaska so special.
FALL
September 31 – December 13
Roosevelt Elk, Sitka Black-Tailed Deer, and Sea Ducks
Raspberry Island and nearby Southwest Afognak Island are home to Alaska’s Roosevelt elk and Sitka black-tailed Deer. The waters between these islands provide important wintering habitat for harlequin, Barrows goldeneye, long-tailed ducks, scoters, red-breasted and common mergansers, and other puddlers.
Our modern, off-grid, oceanfront wilderness lodge serves as a safe and comfortable base of operations, offering unguided daily boat drop-off and pick-up hunts for elk and deer, along with fully guided fair chase hunts for sea duck species collection. We invite you to join us here—enjoy the hunting part of your hunt, let us take care of the rest.
What Our Guests Say
A dream come true! Years of talking about a fishing trip to Alaska is finally a reality with experiences we will remember forever. We met great people and were treated with the highest respect and greatest accommodations. The fishing was better then expected and the scenery was out of this world. You made this father-son fishing trip our best ever!
Thoreau had his Walden Pond, his serene, peaceful, beautiful bit of the wonder of Nature. Anyone visiting Raspberry Island, its Remote Camp, the exquisite beauty of the forested hill sides falling precipitously towards inviting fishing waters, has found their own magical Walden Pond, here in this spot. Add to this, warm hospitality…and you have a very special inviting repose. Thank you for all of this, memories long to be cherished, and especially the “best carrot cake” in the world. Till we meet again.
We…leave with the kind of regret you feel when you leave family behind. Our intent was to escape work and experience Alaska together…..All was achieved on a grand scale—we celebrated reeling in those big fish and kayaking along magnificent scenery (even spotting a bear close to us on a rocky shore) together….What a wonderful, peaceful, secluded fun spot managed by delightful people….
Truly wondrful place, must be because this is our sixth trip!! No better place to unplug, enjoy the remoteness, enjoy great fishing, and be treated like family.
An accountant might look at Raspberry Island Remote (Lodge) and determine that the assets are the lodge, boat, cabins; but the real assets of this place are the people that run it. Thanks for the good fishing, exceptional kayaking & hikes, but most of all, thanks for letting me be a member of the family for a wonderful week!
Amazing place with so much attention to detail! It was the perfect family vacation and had something for every member of our family. We especially enjoyed the staff. They all worked extremely hard to make our stay enjoyable and memorable. I don’t know how we are ever going to top this one.
Wonderful 5 days of fishing and relaxing. Taking home plenty of halibut, salmon and crab-limited on all 2 days, last day of ‘fun fishing’ incredible, I caught and released over 15 Silvers and uncounted Pinks on flies and spinners. Birch did a great job putting us on the fish and keeping us relaxed with the conversation. I’ve fished Alaska before but this is the only place that I’m already planning to come back to. Wonderful people, wonderful fishing, wonderful site. 5 stars on everything.
Thanks so much for another great trip! Good fishing, sight-seeing, beach combing, and food!!
What another wonderful stay at Raspberry Island! The level of comfort provided by Tiffany, Birch and staff makes this one of the best lodges in Alaska. The food was great, the fishing was outstanding and the facilities are top notch. The ability to fish for different species and to fish in several different locations in one day makes this area very unique.
I’ve fished out of several camps and lodges and Raspberry Island Remote (Lodge) is the best by a long shot. I wouldn’t change a thing. The fish and fishing was better than I expected and the hospitality was the best.
Honestly, I don’t know where to begin. From the moment Mark and Andy started planning this trip, I have been replaying our previous Alaska vacations in my mind. Each one was different, floating, bare boating, lots of fishing–BUT nothing prepared me for your wonderful lodge experience! I have never felt so instantly welcomed, so involved and so satisfied at the end of the day. Thank you for all of your hard work and kindness…. And of course, the big bonus-lots of fish and crab!
I find myself smiling some days thinking of what a wonderful place Raspberry Island is. Great people, fishing, food, views…. You know!
What a fun week spending our time eating fantastic food and drinking good beer mingled in with tracking bears and chasing whales. Thank you for your kind hospitality. Hope to see you again next year!
Thank you for being so wonderful to me and my clients, as they said it themselves, ‘this trip, the food, the fish, the people, have exceeded our expectations.’ ‘Top Shelf.’ ‘5 Star.’ You make everything you do look easy even though you never really stop for very long- Raspberry Island is the only place to go for the best of everything.
Unbelievable experience! From daily limits of fish, fantastic scenery, the bears, the whales, porpoises, and the food!! The Robbins’ hospitality is second to none. We will never forget you and will always treasure the time spent here.
