Baranof Wilderness Lodge

  • Location: Sitka

Fodor's Review:

This cozy fishing lodge is nestled in Warm Springs Bay, 20 air mi from Sitka on the wild east side of Baranof Island. Guest cabins have pine paneling, private baths, and electricity from a small hydroelectric plant. Packages range from two-night stays ($585 per person) to seven-night fishing adventures ($4,850 per person). All include floatplane transport from Sitka, boats and guide service, lodging in cabins with private baths, plus gourmet food and wines served at communal meals. Special wildlife photography seminars and fly-fishing classes are offered throughout the summer. The lodge has two wood-fired hot tubs, and nearby is a natural hot springs that pours 108°F water into a series of pools overlooking a waterfall. Most of the surrounding land is within Tongass National Forest.
