3rd fishing trip to Ketchikan, 1st stay at Chinook Shores Lodge. My wife & stayed in the apartment. It was...EXCELLENT! Very well equipped, spacious (for 2), exceptionally clean, and somewhat isolated from rest of Chinook Shores Lodge. Boats were top notch, and well-equipped for safety and fishing. Boat's hard top had optional rain curtain (we did not use). Another really appreciated feature of our boat was the aft auxillary steering wheel. With only 2 of us on board this permitted us to steer while fighting / landing fish. The fishing gear was top notch and in great condition. They even had LH reels for us. (*We were there during the August 2024 horrible rainy/windy day that culminated in the tragic Ketchikan land slide.) Owners Jeff & Nadra kept us informed and went out of their way to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. Salmon fishing ("catching") was as good as ever. In our opinion, downrigger trolling is easier than flasher w/diver. We did the self-guided gig. We enjoyed the sea lions up close at fish cleaning dock and saw an orca whale near the lodge as well as Dall's porpoise. Highly recommend Chinook Shores Lodge as an option for couples.

Amazing fishing, great location, friendly staff. Had a wonderful experience at Chinook Shores and would highly recommend. Stayed in a cabin with my family, and spent the days catching a ton of fish and had such a great time. It was nice to have our own boat and choose where we wanted to go. The boats are well equipped to catch salmon, halibut, lingcod, rockfish, or whatever else you are after. The staff processed our fish when we returned and packed and froze it for the flight home. Can’t wait to return!

The lodging accommodations were superb, homey and comfortable. The boat and related equipment were second to none, as was the information on where the fish might be found. The picturesque view from our deck was over and above expectations. A family of Bald Eagles treated us to a visit every evening. And to top it off, the staff was incredible. Friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful in every way. Chinook Shores Lodge is the best of the best, bar none. This was our second trip and WE'RE GOING BACK!

This place was 1st class. I have stayed at other fishing lodges before and they have all been good, but Jeff, Nadra, and McKinley took my visit one step further. The 3 of them and their whole staff were super friendly and always looking for some way to make your trip better. |The rooms rooms were clean and well stocked with all of out needs. They were willing to give us tips and guidance to help us catch a lot of fish. The boats were all outfitted well and the equipment very well maintained except a few little repairs (which is expected in the salt water environment), which they fixed immediately as soon as we brought it to their attention.|Their vans were waiting for us at the airport when we arrived and after stopping at the store for some groceries we were on the water the afternoon we arrived.|When we left, the fish was all vacuum packaged, frozen and put into insulated boxes for the ride home. When my flight arrived home 9 hours later, the fish was still frozen as solid as when we left’|A great experience and i would do it again.

Chinook Shores is a top shelf vacation place. Accommodations were fabulous. Very clean, comfortable, up to date and had everything needed. Fishing boats provided were top notch, clean and reliable. Jeff, Nadra and crew were fabulous, friendly and knowledgeable. They went above and beyond when we had a fishing license oops too make sure we got on the water. We are already planning on when we can come back!!!||Doug & Pam

Two of my sons and I, just finished a weeks stay at Chinook Shores Lodge and had a WONDERFUL time!!!! Jeff and his team, provided excellent service! I would rate the lodging, boats, customer service and fishing a top rating of !! Jeff is super helpful in explaining how to fish the different species and will make sure you are set up with everything you need. When we were ready to leave, we picked up our our boxes of fish for the plane ride home. We will be back again!

This was my first time in Alaska and we were blessed with hospitality and great weather! Jeff and his team were amazing! Our lodge was clean, and had the perfect waterfront view. A crew member would meet us every morning and outfit our boat with everything we needed for a successful fishing day. They provided tips on where to go for weather and to catch the most fish! I cannot stress enough how nice everyone was. My husband and I will be making this an annual trip!

I had a party of three friends and we stayed at Chinook Shores in early August 2014. We booked the self guided package. The cabins were quite a bit nicer then we expected. The boat was in great shape and ran well. Jeff and his staff were very helpful in putting us on the fish. The fishing was quite good. If you are looking for a nice place to stay, that provides quality equipment, and has friendly and helpful staff this is the place you should book.
