Getting there takes planning
There is no road access. Guests arrive by floatplane or helicopter, usually by air taxi from Lake Hood in Anchorage. Arrange the trip with the lodge in advance, and leave flexibility in your itinerary for weather delays.

Redoubt Mountain Lodge is a privately operated, all-inclusive lodge on Crescent Lake in Lake Clark National Park, with guest cabins and a main lodge. Bear viewing, fishing and guided outings are the reasons to come. Plan on a booked, fly-in overnight stay.
Activities are planned with each group, with a 2:1 guest-to-guide ratio. Bear viewing can start from the main lodge deck or move out by boat, kayak or stand-up paddleboard. Fishing and hiking are also offered; some trails start by the cabins, while other outings are a short boat ride away. Wildlife sightings aren't guaranteed.
Private cabins have en-suite bathrooms, and the main lodge is where guests gather for meals. Meals and snacks are included, and fresh-caught salmon has been a highlight on some stays. Guests also have a hot tub, sauna and internet. Fishing packages include fish cleaning and vacuum packing.
Crescent Lake is glacier-fed. Redoubt Volcano, a 10,197-foot peak about eight miles away, gave the lodge its name and is visible on clear days. The appeal is the lakefront setting and guided time in the surrounding country.
