Kenai River Salmon Fishing Lodges

Centrally located on the Kenai Peninsula, Jimmie Jack Fishing offers two fishing lodges that provide ideal accommodations for your salmon fishing trip to the Kenai River. Unlike other lodges, the conditions are excellent; you won’t exactly be roughing it when you stay with us. 

  • Original Alaska Fishing Lodge – The full Alaska experience is available at the Original Lodge. The setting atop a bluff overlooking the Cook Inlet means that you’ll be treated to beautiful views. After a day out on the water, you can relax on a lodge deck while waves crash below you. Lodge packages come with groups having their own room or cabin for a private, relaxed experience when not exploring the outdoors.
  • Alaska Seascape Lodge – For a more luxurious experience, choose the Alaska Seascape Lodge. One of the few all-inclusive lodges in the region, the Alaska Seascape Lodge is perfect for those who want the amenities of a five-star property alongside their fishing adventure. A menu featuring halibut, salmon (of course), and king crab blends perfectly with complimentary wine and drinks. This lodge maxes out at 20 guests, so book early for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

With well-appointed accommodations, great amenities, fantastic service, and, most importantly, quick access to some of the best fishing spots in Alaska, it’s no wonder so many choose one of Jimmie Jack’s lodges as the home base for their ultimate Alaskan fishing trip!
