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
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!
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.
We are return clients to KRIRL, with another trip planned for 2025. It’s just that special of a place! On this trip, we fished for silvers, kings, halibut, rock fish and lingcod. The fishing and hospitality of Birch and Tiffany are first class. You feel like family the moment you arrive. I can’t say enough positive things about Kodiak Raspberry Island Remote Lodge. If you’re looking for cozy accommodations and world class fishing, KRIRL is the place for you.
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!
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!
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.
Thanks so much for another great trip! Good fishing, sight-seeing, beach combing, and food!!
Raspberry Island Remote (Lodge) turned out to be the highest point in a trip where nothing was low.
We thank you for the fantastic days. We will never forget your hospitality and your effort to make our stay a memory for life.
We had a wonderful time enjoying the beautiful spot you have picked out for your home and the top notch hospitality. I invite others to experience what cannot be described with words and pictures. One of the most spectacular places on earth. Truly the trip of a lifetime with memories and new friends we will cherish forever.
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 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!
Here for a week of fun, activity, rest and relaxation, I have enjoyed the days tremendously. I love finding new things to do and try and this trip had many of those.
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 sure enjoyed our stay with you! Overall an excellent experience. The Lodge, the staff and all your hospitality was unsurpassed. You really know how to treat a guest. George sure liked it, and he made it back to the South of France with all the fish intact.
