WE opened their season with our very first visit this June and were overwhelmed by the welcoming staff. They are more than thorough in taking care of our needs and wants. They are ENTHUSIASTIC which is a very rare situation for any resort staff. The fishing was both fun and the waters surprising. We caught two King Salmon (one 25 pound, one 18 pound) our first day out and it was within easy sight of the resort docks. Cabins are extraordinary, well designed and POLISHED. We are in our 70's and totally unfamiliar with the waters. Yet we had no trouble taking our own 20 ft. boat and finding the exact locations where fishing was best and already market on our GPS sonar equipment. Easy to use and fun to do it ourselves!! Even good crabbing. An we finished our last day out with King Salmon limits!!

Top notch fishing destination spot. The accommodations are great. The crew is polite, accommodating and very helpful, as well as fun and personable. Jeff and Nadra, the owners, are wonderful folks and just great to be around. Jeff came up to our "cabin" every evening, had beer with us, and checked in to see how we were doing and offered useful advice and was, not only willing but, happpy to suggest and make sure we had the proper gear and tackle to make our fishing as successful as it could be. Looking forward to returning the next time I'm fishing Southeast Alaska.

My brother and I took my two boys to Chinook Shores for a week long fishing trip. We had been talking about doing this for years and finally pulled it together. We could not be more pleased with our choice to make Chinook Shores Lodge our destination for this once in a lifetime trip. From the very beginning we knew we were in for a treat. The owners have invested in fantastic equipment with new boats and quality gear. The cabins are very very nice and well set up. The view is absolutely amazing! Each person on staff here at Chinook Shores is ready to go the extra mile to make sure your stay is exactly what you want. Sumati was waiting to pick us up from the airport and even agreed to take us to a few stops to pick up supplies before arriving at our cabin. McKinley and Kylee prepared the days catch with care and precision. It was so cool to watch these experts work. The best part was seeing them correct my brother on the different species of Salmon. Too funny! TJ was extremely knowledgeable and helped us decide where to fish each day and was very helpful getting our equipment prepared perfectly. Finally, the hosts Jeff and Nadra were absolutely awesome and made us feel like part of the family. Thank you Chinook Shores team, you helped us experience a trip of a lifetime. We will be back!

This is the most accommodating resort I've been to!! Jeff was our guide one day, and we caught a lot of salmon and halibut. Staff people were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return again!!

I actually was not able to visit the lodge due to circumstances beyond my control but given them a 5-star review for the way they handled my situation. The owners were fantastic to work with. This lodge will be a consideration for the future.

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!

Trip was awesome! All of the staff made every effort to make our stay comfortable. Jeff and Nadra are exceptionally nice people and hosts. They genuinely want their guests to have a good time. The boats and gear is great and the whole experience takes place in a magnificent setting. We will soon be booking our fifth consecutive trip for next year!

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.
