At Katmai Wilderness Lodge you’ll find hot showers, fully equipped private bathrooms, and delightful guest rooms with comfortable accommodations. You’ll enjoy mouthwatering meals in the traditional Alaskan dining room; put up your feet in the lodge’s living room full of books, games, and DVDs; and sit back on the multi-level deck – an exceptional place to take in the view and observe the beauty of Katmai. A maximum of 12 guests will stay at the lodge at a time, therefore a personal experience is guaranteed.
An eco-friendly lodge, Katmai Wilderness Lodge uses wind and solar power to minimize the impact on the environment.
Katmai teems with an astounding array of winged creatures, especially during the spring migratory and summer breeding seasons. Puffins, ducks, geese, kittiwakes, shorebirds, and bald eagles make this region a true bird lover’s paradise. Here at Katmai Wilderness Lodge, you’ll be nestled in a rich ecosystem abundant with some of the world’s most extraordinary animals.
Throughout your stay, your expert guides ensure your complete safety and comfort. Accompanied by the professional staff, you’ll set off each morning by boat, exploring the myriad of beaches within the bay where bears congregate in search of clams or catch salmon as they travel upstream, depending on when one visits. As conditions allow, you’ll join bears and other animals on land, giving you extremely rare wildlife viewing, and of course, unparalleled photo opportunities.
