Welcome to the Copper River Lodge

Please download Java(tm). The Copper River is one of the premier wild rainbow rivers in Alaska; and considered by many, one of the premier rivers in the world. It is a State of Alaska designated "trophy rainbow river" and regulated to "fly fishing only; catch and release." It is this designation that has kept the fishing on the river so outstanding.

The Copper River Lodge is a small lodge that caters to only six people per week. This ensures personal service, and a relaxing atmosphere that is hard to find in the larger lodges of Alaska. You'll find our staff to be very experienced, polite and professional. This is why over 70% of our guests have fished with us before.

We also offer fly out trips to the upper Copper to reach water not accessible by jet boat. These trips do involve an additional charge (typically about $120) but keep in mind that if weather doesn't permit flying you don't pay for it -- unlike the fly-out lodges that charge a premium price whether you fly or not. Additionally, we access the Gibraltor river (about a 45 minute ride) by means of a comfortable 20ft lake boat.
