Ravencroft Lodge offers two distinctly different types of packages. You can either come to the Lodge on a Guided Package, or you may choose to do a Self-Guided Package. Choosing the right package for you and your group depends upon several factors, including your experience and comfort level, as well as experience with operating boats and/or kayaks in a coastal marine environment. Also, your familiarity with Alaska weather and wildlife.


Self-Guided Fishing, Kayaking or Combo Packages :

Our Self-Guided packages are less expensive than our Guided packages, and designed for people with some fishing or kayaking experience, or those who simply feel they would prefer to 'be your own guide, on your own schedule', while at the lodge. The lodge provides an informative training/orientation which covers the operation of the particular fishing skiff or kayaks to be used, as well as all peripheral gear, safety equipment & radios, and safety procedures. Also included is a discussion of the area's geography, weather, fishing hotspots, fishing methods, which can be as detailed as you request.

Although we feel that our training/orientation will address every aspect of your stay at the lodge, we do not guarantee that it will cover any and all situations that may arise, nor that it will enable you as a watercraft operator or group participant, to make a proper decision if an emergency occurs while your are fishing or kayaking. Incredible fishing grounds are only 5 minutes away and usually within site of the lodge.



Packages Include the Following:
Comfortable, heated bedrooms - including bedding and towels.
Bathrooms & hot showers-accessed from the covered porch which surrounds the sleeping quarters building.
Meals - Three meals per day. Breakfast and dinner served in the lodge dining room, with a sack lunch on the boat or back at the lodge.

The Weather and What to Bring- Alaskan weather is unpredictable and can change hourly. Summer temperatures range from the mid-60's to the low 70's. Rain and showers are frequent in the summer months. Even on the sunniest days of summer, the temperature may feel cool. Layered clothes is a good idea, and you will find that long sleeve shirts feel good on most days. A light jacket will probably come in handy. Good rain gear is a must, along with warm head gear. Good rubber soled shoes, or rubber boots. Be sure to bring a camera, flashlight, binoculars and your personal items. Bring your favorite spinning rod or fly rod, or the lodge will supply one.
