Redoubt Mountain Lodge lies on the shores of Crescent Lake in Lake Clark National Park and Preserve surrounded by the dramatic Chigmit Mountains. Unforgettable Alaskan adventures start here with world-class salmon & trout fishing, hiking, kayaking & paddle boarding, photography, and most notably – some of the best bear viewing in Alaska.
Your adventure begins upon arrival in Anchorage. Assistance will be provided upon arrival as you collect your luggage and find your private vehicle and driver. A private transfer will be provided to your hotel. As Alaska’s largest city, Anchorage provides all the comforts of city life including a variety of Alaskan dining and shopping options, all just outside your front door. But the city is also just steps away from the surrounding wilderness, making it the perfect place to rest, relax, or explore after a long flight.
Spend the evening in downtown Anchorage
Enjoy breakfast at your Anchorage hotel before a private transfer takes you to the Lake Hood Seaplane Base for your 70-minute to the Redoubt Mountain Lodge located in Lake Clark National Park & Preserve. Upon arrival enjoy lunch and a lodge orientation. Spend the afternoon fishing, participating in other lodge adventures or simply relaxing and taking in the beautiful surroundings.
Climb into your waders and head out with your experienced fishing guide for great fishing on Crescent Lake and its many small tributaries, on out to the lake outlet and the salmon producing Crescent River. You can choose to fly or spin fishing along the river bank, fish from a boat, or “walk and wade” to reel in the big one.
Bear viewing doesn’t get any better than this!
Lake Clark National Park offers some of the best bear viewing and photography opportunities in Alaska. Watch these amazing animals exploring and feeding in their natural habitat. Photograph the bears as they feast on spawning salmon, forage along the shoreline, and train their young. Travel with an experienced guide by boat or kayak to watch bears up-close-and-personally. You can request helicopter fly out trips to others areas rich with bear activity as well.
Helicopter fly-out options include flightseeing throughout Lake Clark National Park as well as guided kayaking and/or paddle boarding trips on remote streams within the Alaska Range. Or you can just choose to relax and later enjoy afternoon hiking, kayaking, and paddleboarding right near Redoubt Mountain Lodge.
Lodge owners and on-site managers, Ryan and Heather Richards, are committed to providing a premier wilderness facility that offers an unforgettable Alaskan experience.
The authentic spruce log main lodge provides all the comforts of home and features cozy furnishings, a fireplace, bar, dining room, kitchen and large deck overlooking Crescent Lake.
