Our eco-lodge is off-grid, beyond the reach of technology & city-related stress...wake up to the sound of Bald Eagles chirping from the trees outside your cabin window. Take your morning coffee out on the deck & watch sea otters play in the ocean below. Out on the boat for the day, you'll be fully outfitted & guided as you catch King Salmon, Silver Salmon, Pink Salmon, Pacific Halibut, Pacific Grey Cod, & more! Our record halibut for the summer of 2008 was 196# & it was caught just 100 yards off our private beach!!

    We're all--inclusive, so once your feet touch down on Kodiak Island, we've got everything covered. Transport between town & the lodge, meals, ocean front cabins/rooms, nightly sauna, all necessary fishing gear, guided hiking/kayaking, are all part of the package when you visit Alderwood Retreat.

    Our Fishing Fool package includes four days of saltwater fishing & a one-day river rafting fishing trip, where the odds are good you'll float right past Kodiak bear!! Prices are drastically reduced from last year, so book now!!

    We specialize in small groups, so the atmosphere is homey/friendly. We're self-sustaining, with hydropower providing 100% of our electricity, an organic garden, a strong recycling program, and we provide opportunities for guests to contribute to local conservation efforts.
