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
Late September – mid‑December
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
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
A must stay! Plan that trip, book that trip and be ready for the best vacation. Unplug and enjoy!
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!
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 thoroughly enjoyed our time at the lodge and on the boats! Great fishery, lots of variety, and consistent catches. The whole operation is so well run and the hospitality is outstanding. Thanks for a great experience!
First time to Alaska, and this was the the best. 3 days fishing and one day bear view... Our cabin was beautiful, cozy and comfortable. Slept like a baby each night... It was just a super place, super people. Birch and Tiffany, their kids and the crew, along with friends we made – everyone was super easy to get along. We had the best best time and will always recommend Kodiak Raspberry Island Remote Lodge!
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.
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!
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!
Thanks so much for another great trip! Good fishing, sight-seeing, beach combing, and food!!
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.
