Sleeping Where the Bears Roam: Bear Viewing and Overnight Lodge Stay
Experience Alaska’s mighty brown bears in their natural habitat by day, then unwind at a cozy lodge nestled on the shores of Lake Illiamna by night.
An all inclusive 2-day and 1-night Alaskan Wilderness Adventure
Fly deep into Alaska’s untamed backcountry for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure: guided bear viewing in Katmai followed by a cozy night at a lakeside lodge and a second day of your choice exploring the wild, your way.
Think one day wont be enough?
Enjoy a gourmet dinner, warm hospitality, and a restful night in lodge comfort, far from roads, crowds, or cell towers. The next morning, choose your own Alaskan adventure: a guided fishing trip, a serene kayaking experience, or a hike through the lake’s pristine surroundings. With personalized service, breathtaking landscapes, and a perfect mix of wilderness and comfort, this experience offers more than just bear viewing — it’s a deep dive into the heart of Alaska.

“The chef and host were absolutely delightful—warm, welcoming, and their food was phenomenal. We also got to unwind in the hot tub, soaking in the breathtaking views, which made the evening even more memorable.
The accommodations were top-notch—spacious, beautifully appointed rooms with extremely comfortable beds that made us feel right at home.”
