Wilderness Place Lodge | Alaska Fishing | Adventures

We had an amazing time fishing and sight seeing in Alaska with Wilderness Place Lodge. The staff were friendly, the accommodations were comfortable and clean, the food was phenomenal, guides were knowledgeable and patient, activities were family friendly, and best of all we got a package tailored to our group without having to worry about anything from the heavy lifting to the tiniest detail. All we had to do was get to Anchorage and every other arrangement had been made for us. I highly recommend!

5 star. Great experience. The staff was as good as you could be possibly get, they even did our laundry. We enjoyed the fishing, great guide for the whole stay, incredible food and there is a deck with a solo fireplace where we met some great people with a Samoa station right on the River. One hour flight in with the professionals from Rust, my next review.

I was particularly struck with the quality of your staff, everyone was friendly and attentive. The food was outstanding, with the chef & team coming out to talk with us every night after dinner. The lodge staff was always asking what else they could do to make our stay even better. I was also really happy to see how our guides approached being on the water. They were considerate of other anglers and showed a lot of respect for the fish and other wildlife. As someone who has a high ethical standard when it comes to hunting and fishing, this was something that I was worried about. I was also a bit worried since no one in my family had any real fishing experience, but the guides did a great job making us comfortable - even with a fly rod.

WPL is an unmatched lodging experience AND an unmatched fishing experience. The staff is over and above thoughtful and work as a team to ensure everyone gets what they want and need from their trip. The culinary staff is exceptional and they even offered a salmon-focused culinary course, teaching the differences between the species you’ll encounter and emphasizing sustainable fishing practices in both the sport and commercial fishing worlds. Lastly, our guide, Ryan, was unbelievably easy to fish with. He was positive, offered improvements or different techniques in a professional, light-hearted way, and tailored the entire schedule to us and what we wanted. This is the best kept secret of Alaskan fishing and I can’t wait to come back some day!

Best retreat! I live in Anchorage and came to the lodge with my daughter to reconnect, unwind, and recharge. Our stay was awesome! The caretakers, Angie and Tommy were soo welcoming, and they treated us like family! They exceeded our expectations by a long-shot and we can’t wait to go back! We stayed in Cabin #4. It was very clean and spacious and had a full kitchen. They even hung a welcome sign with our names on it, outside of the door! Very nice touch💕 Angie and Tommy made sure we had everything we needed. We visited and roasted marshmallows and made s’mores. Best time we’ve had in a long time! Thank you Tommy and Angie, you’re tge best!!!
