A Remote Alaska Fishing Lodge Close to Anchorage

You do not have to travel hundreds of miles from Anchorage to experience remote Alaska.

McDougall Lodge is located approximately 65 miles northwest of Anchorage at Lake Creek. Access is by floatplane, giving you a true fly-in Alaska fishing lodge experience within a relatively short flight from the city.

There are no highways leading to the lodge and no long daily drives to reach the fishing grounds.

Fish Right From the Heart of the Action

Location matters on an Alaska fishing trip.

McDougall Lodge sits on the Yentna River near the mouth of Lake Creek, putting our guests right in the middle of productive Alaska fishing water.

All five species of Pacific salmon found in Alaska move through this river system during the fishing season, including King, Sockeye, Silver, Chum, and Pink salmon.

Depending on the time of your visit, anglers can also pursue Rainbow Trout, Arctic Grayling, and Northern Pike.

Different species have different seasonal runs, which means the experience changes throughout the summer.

The Largest Boats and Fleet on the River

A great fishing lodge needs more than a great location.

McDougall Lodge operates the area's largest fishing boats and maintains the most extensive fleet on the river.

Our jet sleds allow our guides to explore the lower eight miles of Lake Creek, the Yentna River, and nearby tributaries. That gives us the flexibility to cover water and pursue different fishing opportunities throughout your stay.

Experienced angler or first-time Alaska fisherman, our guides are here to help you make the most of every day on the water.

Remote Alaska Without Giving Up the Basics

Remote does not have to mean uncomfortable.

After a full day of fishing, you can come back to McDougall Lodge for a hot shower, a comfortable room, a good meal, and a flush toilet.

Those basics can feel pretty good after spending the day chasing salmon through the Alaska wilderness.

Food is also a big part of the McDougall Lodge experience. Our guests regularly compliment the meals, and some even leave asking our chef for his recipes.

We keep things simple and focus on what matters.

Good fishing. Good food. Comfortable accommodations. Great people. Remote Alaska.
