The Alaskan Fishing Vacation of Your Dreams!

If you’ve dreamed of a magical Alaskan fishing vacation... far from civilization, an abundant clear river loaded with trophy salmon and arctic char just outside your private lodge, pristine wilderness as far as the eye can see, abundant wildlife, small groups, great food and guaranteed relaxation; this is it.

At Austin’s Golsovia River lodge, you’ll be fishing a beautiful clear stream on private land accessible only by boat. There are no other landowners, no roads, no airports. You're surrounded by BLM land and 40 miles from civilization. Fishing is a one minute leisurely walk from the lodge. Take your time, walk with your family or friends, try various flies and lures. When not fishing, there’s lots to do. Hike, kayak, watch wildlife and birds. Enjoy great home cooked meals; caribou, moose, ptarmigan, arctic hare, king crab, musk ox and of course fresh salmon you’ve just caught. Look forward to relaxation, magical solitude, nature, fun and incredible fishing! This is a soft adventure suitable for all ages and experience whether you fish or not.
