Nushagak River Adventures Lodge is an all-inclusive Alaska fishing lodge at its finest. Over the last three years we have built 9 brand-new, cozy cabins that are perfect for families or friends. We have rebuilt and upgraded our commercial kitchen, built a brand new bathhouse, and have torn down our 6-person guide dormitory to build a new 12-person staff dorm. This past spring we built The Lodge that houses the kitchen and dining facility that doubles as our visiting area.
Accommodations include comfortable, insulated 12′ x 20′ cabins complete with USB wall outlets. Real beds, quality mattresses and down pillows provide first class comfort in our remote fishing camp. We also offer flush toilets, hot showers and satellite internet. Most of our cabins accommodate four anglers and some are built for two.
Improvements haven’t stopped at this Alaska fishing lodge, we’ve upgraded our boats and fishing gear with eight new Alumaweld 20-foot boats powered by 90 HP Mercury motors that comfortably fish up to four guests and easily navigate the river. We’ve brought in all new Lamiglas rods and Daiwa line counter reels, new line and tackle. Our top-level guides are armed with the knowledge and the gear for this supreme river. Simply put, we catch fish even when other camps don’t.
We invite you to stay and fish with us on the Nushagak River. Our Alaska fishing lodge is one of the few real-wood framed camps on the lower Nushagak River, and one of only three privately held camps on the river.
Nushagak River Adventures Lodge’s Hospitality
Among the finest Alaska fishing lodge hospitality offered in Bristol Bay, we pride ourselves on being attentive hosts with our eyes and ears open to our guests. From the moment you step off the floatplane in camp you’ll be greeted by our camp leader and team ready to assist you to your cabin. After orientation, we will take you out to fish for the rest of the day. Guests come back to camp at 6 pm to get cleaned up and enjoy a cocktail, if desired. You are welcome to bring alcohol, beer or wine to relax in a responsible manner. Appetizers are served buffet style at about 6:30 pm with dinner and dessert to follow. Meals prepared by Chef Chris Lee are exquisite, well rounded and abundant. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and treats are served daily. Sample menu items include salmon, halibut, prime rib, pork chops, chicken, fresh vegetables and salads, home made breads, desserts and much more. Everything is hand crafted from quality ingredients and it is all quite delicious. Please let us know of any food allergies or restrictions at least 30 days in advance of your visit. We will do our best to accommodate you on short notice as well. We know you’ll love visiting with friends at our Alaska fishing lodge.
Most of the land along the Nushagak River is owned by the Choggiung LTD Native Corporation. This limits the number of lodges, camps, and anglers on the Nushagak which in turn provides you the very best opportunity to be “on the fish”. Some of the best Alaska fishing is right in front of our Alaska fishing lodge. Fish all day with your guide then battle fish after dinner back at the lodge. Depending on timing, our guests can catch and release kings, silvers, chum, sockeye, Dolly Varden, grayling, char, and Northern pike right off our banks.
When searching for the best Alaska lodges, many anglers overlook the physical structure of their base camp. In the Bristol Bay region, weather can shift from calm to torrential in minutes. Staying in a permanent, real-wood framed lodge—as opposed to a seasonal tent camp—is a functional necessity for serious sportsmen. Our insulated 12′ x 20′ cabins provide a thermal barrier that keeps you dry and warm, allowing your gear to dry out completely overnight. This level of infrastructure is what defines the best fishing lodge in Alaska, as it directly impacts your physical recovery and energy levels for the next day’s session on the river.
Our location on the lower Nushagak provides a strategic advantage that few best Alaskan fishing lodges can match. By being positioned closer to the salt water, we intercept salmon while they are sea-bright and at their peak fighting strength. Unlike an Alaska Sportsmen Lodge located further upriver, our guests don’t have to wait for the fish to travel to them. We fish the “fresh” side of the run. This geographic placement, combined with our fleet of Alumaweld boats, ensures that you spend more time with a tight line and less time navigating through pressurized water.
We offer 9 brand-new cabins that provide a level of privacy and comfort rare in remote camps. Our wood-framed structures and full bathhouse facilities create a safe, clean environment for anglers of all ages.
Your adventure begins with a scenic floatplane flight from Dillingham directly to our dock. We coordinate these logistics to ensure a seamless transition from the hub to the river.
Yes, Chef Chris Lee prepares all meals daily. Our menus feature high-quality proteins like prime rib and halibut, ensuring you are well-fueled for the physical demands of Alaskan fishing.
We utilize top-tier Lamiglas rods and Daiwa line counter reels. Our gear is maintained to a professional standard to ensure it can handle the power of a trophy King or Silver salmon.
While we encourage guests to disconnect, we do offer satellite internet so you can check in with family or handle essential business during your stay.
Yes, we welcome guests to bring their own beer, wine, or spirits to enjoy responsibly at the lodge after a day on the water.
With 30 days’ notice, our kitchen team can accommodate almost any dietary restriction or allergy, ensuring your dining experience is both safe and exquisite.
Depending on the run timing, you can catch King, Sockeye, and Silver salmon, as well as Northern Pike, Dolly Varden, and Grayling without ever leaving the camp.
Yes, all our guides are fully credentialed and possess the local expertise required to navigate the Nushagak’s shifting braids safely and effectively.
Being one of only three privately held camps on the river means we have exclusive access to prime land, reducing the “combat fishing” feel found at public access points and ensuring a more secluded experience.
Experience one of the best Alaska fishing lodges on the Nushagak River with all-inclusive comfort, expert guides, and world-class fishing right outside your cabin.
Peak dates fill fast—secure your trip now and enjoy a seamless, unforgettable fishing adventure.
