Brooks Lodge
Brooks Lodge overlooks the world famous Brooks River in the
heart of Katmai National
Park. The lodge, originally conceived as a
fishing camp, has been in operation since 1950. The facilities have seen continuous
upgrading and have gained a world-wide reputation, attracting visitors from all
continents.
Guest accommodations consist of sixteen rustic rooms all with modern private
facilities. Rooms accommodate two to four persons. The beautiful main lodge building
boasts a spectacular view of aquamarine Naknek
Lake. Its large circular fireplace
is popular for evening relaxing and reminiscing about the day's adventures.
Hearty Alaskan fare is served three times a day buffet style in the dining area
of the lodge. Cocktails are available for purchase at the lodge bar each
afternoon and evening.
The World Famous bear viewing at Brooks Falls is only a short walk
from Brooks Lodge. As many as fifty bears live along the mile and
a
half long Brooks River during the salmon season. Many visitors see
bears within
minutes of arrival. All visitors are instructed by the National Park
Service on
how to conduct themselves in "Bear Country". Comfortable
accommodations in the heart of the magnificent Katmai wilderness make
this a
truly perfect vacation spot.
