RecommendedStaff friendly, rooms clean and comfy.. Ben our guide was super nice and kind to me, didn't give up until I landed my Sockeye Salmon. Met such nice people at the fire, shared their marshmallows! 😊 This is the second year my son and I have stayed at Drifters Lodge, I hope it's an annual event..
Business response:
We hope you keep up this tradition as well. Thank you for your kind words about our friendly staff and Ben is one of our best guides on the river so we are very happy that you and your son had another great time with us. Our nightly fire is a great way to meet other clients and sit around and toast marshmallows and have a drink to unwind from another fun day. Very glad you landed your sockeye and we look forward to your visit next year.
Everything about this place was amazing. We did two days of hiking and two days of salmon fishing. Thanks Bob for everything.

Our staff is there to make sure you have a great time while you visit with us. Thank you for recommending us and we look forward to your next visit with us.
Bob and the entire staff at Drifters are the most enjoyable, hard working group you could hope to stay with. A big shout out to Jack for working so hard to put us on a limit of Sockeye in the morning then row the upper Kenai in a 30mph tail wind in the afternoon. He knows where to find some BIG bows and dollies! Thank you Jon for the good times finding Trophy Grayling (we landed near 50 Grayling!). Jason Lesmeister (Jason’s Guide Service) was a blast fishing the Refuge section of the Kenai. Jason made it happen....100%!!! Th... read more

Thank you so much for recommending us. Bob and his staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and make a great team at Drifters. Extremely happy that you limited out on sockeye and had our very capable guide Jack to assist you as he is very good to putting his clients onto nice fish.

We are repeat customers! Had a wonderful time and brought home 80 total pounds of dressed fish! Due to our ages we were housed in cabin #4, with no steps to navigate. The staff that owner Bob and manager Andy have assembled are second to none. Their enthusiasm in dealing with guests gives you the feeling that you are their only visitors, and they are sole purpose is to make your visit a memorable experience. We travel south next year but we will definitely return.
