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
Birch, Tiffany, et al…. thank you for such a wonderful experience. you have opened your home, cabins and hearts to us. everyone who works here is caring and believes in the mission of Raspberry Island Remote. You feel how special this place is the moment you walk off the boat until you walk balk on to leave for the last time. tank you for great memories, thank you for being special people and tank you for a great life experience.
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….
We have had a delightful, if all too brief, first visit to Raspberry Island. We have been planning this trip for years and imagining the place, but the reality far outweighs the imagining. The hospitality has been delightful and the environment wonderful. We will be taking home heavy boxes of fish, but the memories will far outweigh that!
Our experience was worth every penny and we recommend Raspberry Island Remote Lodge to anyone who would like to experience the beauty, wildlife and fishing that Alaska has to offer. Thanks Birch!
What a great setting and excellent meals. We enjoyed the hospitality and the fishing. Our bear watch in Katmai was successful as well as three days of great fishing. Raspberry….does provide for the complete Alaska Experience. We hope to return soon.
Thank you so much for sharing your home and Kodiak Island. My adventure was incredible, as incredible as your hospitality. My memories of this place will be unforgettable. I can’t wait to come back and make more, especially to share them with my family and friends.
Words can not describe how lucky we are to have met such a wonderful family and a place so magnificent. This IS heaven on earth. The food was delicious and all the dinners were especially first class. Thank you for the bear viewing, the kayaking, hiking, fishing…Thank you again for sharing one of many Alaskan treasures. We look forward to our next visit.
Got to spend the week with my Son – so it had to be good. The silvers were hit and miss for a while and then ended with a bang! Caught 2 82 lb butt-fish and my fly rod is aching. Great setting, food and hosts! My expectations were high and they were exceeded in every way! Thanks Robbins!
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.
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.
I came up here with my dad for his birthday. I didn’t know what to expect from a “remote camp.” This place is like a luxury spa. The cabins are roomy and comfortable. My bed was like sleeping on a cloud….First class all the way. If these meals were served in Boston it would get 5 stars. Absolutely outstanding. I could write neater, but my wrist and hand hurt from catching all those fish….Thanks so much.
Thanks so much for another great trip! Good fishing, sight-seeing, beach combing, and food!!
Thanks again for a wonderful stay at Raspberry Island. All of us are raving about the fantastic hospitality and accommodations offered by you and the staff. The fishing was fantastic. The meals were fantastic. The kayaking and hiking were fantastic. You surpassed our expectations and provided us an experience we will never forget.
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.
In two short days we have seen whales, bears, otters, fox, eagles, and puffins, thank you the Robbins family.
