Established in 1984, Northwoods Lodge is a premier Alaska Fly-in fishing lodge owned and operated by lifetime Alaska residents, Eric and Shan Johnson, and their family. Nestled on Fish Lakes Creek, with access to many clear-water tributaries of the Yentna River, we offer outstanding spin and fly fishing in the heart of Alaska’s wilderness – with no daily fly-outs that can be cancelled due to weather. All of our fishing is done right from the lodge, ensuring you spend more time on the water and less time waiting on flights.

All five species of Pacific Salmon venture up the Susitna and Yentna River drainages to find their spawning beds and are still chrome bright upon their return to their home waters. Whether the fish are upstream or at the mouth of the rivers, your fishing guide has a prop boat and a jet boat at their disposal to get you to the fish.

Guests can kayak, hydro bike, stand-up paddleboard, hike scenic nature trails, or unwind in our cozy sauna. Evenings are spent sharing stories around the fire pit or enjoying a game of horseshoes or corn hole, making every stay un unforgettable Alaskan wilderness experience.
