Itinerary/Details

Lodge Facilities
The Fox Island Day Lodge, gift shop, and restrooms are located near the dock, allowing all guests easy access. At the Day Lodge guests will dine on the all-you-can-eat prime rib and wild Alaska salmon meal. A National Park Ranger presents a narrative talk about Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park during the meal.

We hope you will embrace the untouched beauty and appreciate the quiet comfort of our seaside wilderness location.
