McDougall Lodge
Located along the banks of the Yentna River in one of Alaska's most productive fishing corridors, McDougall Lodge offers the opportunity to own a fully established, turn-key operation in a premier remote Alaska destination. This legacy property combines a proven income stream, world-class fishing, comfortable accommodations, and complete infrastructure. Situated on 50.69 +/- acres with approximately 1,000 +/- feet of Yentna River frontage, the lodge is positioned near the mouth of Lake Creek, an area recognized for exceptional salmon runs and premier sport fishing opportunities in Southcentral Alaska. Every salmon traveling up Lake Creek passes through this stretch of river, creating consistent fishing opportunities that have helped establish the lodge's reputation. Originally constructed in 1979 and improved over the years, McDougall Lodge has grown into a complete remote hospitality operation with more than 10,000 +/- square feet of improvements. The property accommodates up to 28 guests and 16 staff members with lodging, dining, guide housing, and operational buildings already in place. The main lodge measures approximately 3,116 +/- square feet and is complemented by a two-story dining lodge with an additional bedroom totaling approximately 3,456 +/- square feet. Guest accommodations include the Sockeye Cabin, Pike Cabin, Silver/Coho Duplex, and King Cabin. Additional improvements include a guide cabin, guide duplex, bunkhouse, bathhouse with storage, and three outhouses. The lodge's infrastructure includes a tackle shed and guide room, generator shed, woodshed, garden shed, tractor shed, and deluxe outhouse. Power, water, and satellite connectivity are established. The sale includes everything needed to continue operations, including a well-maintained fleet of guide boats and motors, one of the largest fleets on this stretch of river. Additional equipment includes tractors with attachments, a sawmill, ATV, lawn equipment, tools, and other support items. McDougall Lodge combines a remote wilderness setting with exceptional guest comfort. Visitors enjoy quality accommodations, hot showers, chef-prepared meals, and modern amenities such as flushing toilets, features uncommon in remote Alaska settings. Fishing is the foundation of the lodge's success. Direct access to productive salmon waters, experienced guides, a large boat fleet, and extensive river knowledge provide guests with the opportunity to experience world-class Alaska fishing. The surrounding wilderness offers big game hunting potential for moose and bear, rafting, wildlife viewing, backcountry exploration, and future winter operations. McDougall Lodge has demonstrated consistent performance with historical bookings averaging over $500,000 annually. The 2026 season is fully booked with more than $630,000 in reservations, and over $300,000 is already booked into the 2027 season. The seller is open to owner financing for qualified buyers and willing to assist with a transition period following the sale. Guests typically arrive by floatplane from Anchorage, with flight logistics arranged through the lodge. The property is also accessible by boat via the Yentna River and snowmachine during winter. McDougall Lodge is more than a riverfront property. It is an established business, a proven destination, and an opportunity to own a piece of Alaska history in one of Alaska's premier fishing regions. All showings are by appointment only.
