Why
choose the Anvik River Lodge???
Because it's like
having your own private fishing reserve at our truly remote yet
extremely comfortable lodge. You won't see any other anglers,
boaters or float planes during your stay. It's just us and the
wildlife on this 120+mile river which is a subsidiary to the Yukon
River.
Located about 450
miles Northwest of Anchorage the Anvik River Lodge really is
the only lodge
on the entire Anvik River. Our nearest neighbor is about 70 miles
down stream in the
Athabaskan village
of Anvik.
Imagine floating
down the same river that was used as the original trade route for
Russian explorers on their way to the mighty Yukon.
Guests fly-in on
our privately chartered flight from Anchorage to Anvik. Once there,
the adventure begins with a comfortable boat ride from the shores of
the mighty Yukon up the Anvik River to the lodge. Upon arrival at
the lodge guests are delighted to find the comforts of home in such
a remote area. The hand hewn main lodge houses only eight guests in
four rooms, each with private baths and a great room for dining and
socializing in. We also offer a private guest cabin that
accommodates up to three guests. Imagine a whole week of not seeing
anyone else beside our staff and the other guests at the lodge.
Picture yourself
reeling in pacific salmon, world record northern pike, artic char,
Dolly Varden arctic grayling, white fish and shee fish possibly all
in the same day. While part-taking in this incredible fishing you
will enjoy close up sightings of sow grizzly bears teaching their
cubs to feed on fish, moose , gray and black wolves, otters, beavers
and over 50 species of migratory and song birds that make the Anvik
their homes.
The food at the
Anvik is consistently rated top notch by our guests. We serve
traditional fare along with vegetables mostly grown in our garden.
Bread is baked fresh daily and there are always plenty of fresh
cookies and deserts to accompany these hearty meals. We are becoming
famous for our steak and Alaskan king crab extravaganza.
The Hickson family
and staff invite you to become part of nature at the Anvik River
Lodge.
