This is an all-inclusive luxury lodge that sits on a heavily wooded island in the Sitka Sound about a mile off the coast. There are three beautiful cabins hidden in the trees, each with three bedrooms and room for up to six guests. These cabins are fully-loaded, with comfortable queen beds, living rooms, kitchens and wide decks. The gourmet meals are served family-style in the main lodge, where you’ll also find a hot tub and outdoor massage pavilion.

As part of your vacation package, the lodge will pick you up at the airport, then ferry you out to the island on their boat. During your stay, you’ll rely on them for transportation to every activity you choose, even if it’s simply shopping in downtown Sitka. Most guests include fishing on their itinerary. The lodge has experienced captains and guides to make sure you catch your fair share of halibut and salmon. If you want to take a break from fishing, hiking and kayaking, the owners will take you to nearby attractions, such as the Alaska Raptor Center and the Sitka National Historic Park. For its all-inclusive packages and unique island location, the Talon Lodge is a great choice for your Alaskan family vacation.
