Detailed Reviews
Had a great time at the lodge. I can’t wait to return. This is a fisherman’s lodge not a Cabo resort if you love to fish halibut and salmon you’ll love this place! We caught fish at 40-200 feet Halibut salmon bears glaciers and eagles all self guided

We loved this trip. The resort has new owners that are the best!! Very attentive to our needs. The cabins where clean and cozy. The fishing boats where stocked well with everything we needed. We had great direction where the fishing was the best. I would definitely recommend this trip to all my family be friends!!!

This was my third trip to Green Rocks Lodge. This trip we managed to hit the King salmon run. The food, lodging, and accommodations were once again great. The weather was too good as it hampered the Halibut catch. Our party of four each brought back salmon, halibut, and crab. Jason the new owner was there to help us and provide whatever we needed. The crew took great care of us as well. I plan to visit again.

Not sure where to begin. I think it really starts with the obvious, that the money you pay for your experience, not a dime goes back into the business. The boat almost sank twice on us and when it was checked out, we were told that the plug is rusted out so they just had to adjust it. The gas gauge is broken on multiple boats, one boat ran out of gas because of this and left others stranded for a period of time. The boats were not stocked with the supplies we were told they were. Three separate occasions we asked for something and they told us it’s on the boat, only for them to see for themselves it wasn’t. Overall the boats are in very poor shape. The “tackle” is almost nonexistent. The bait we received every morning was rotten, soft, gross, and unusable. We had to wake up at 4am to go up the channel to catch our own fresh bait. Every pole set up we had, had something wrong with it. One pole, the drag was broken and one other pole was split halfway down the rod. The quality of the meals were just ok, nothing more, nothing less.
Most of the help was pretty good, with the crews doing the best with what was given to them. The owner is nonexistent unless he is getting money from you.
A bad week of fishing (we didn’t do great partly because of what was mentioned above, partly because of it just wasn’t that great, and partly because we were learning what to do) beats a week of work every time except when you feel as if you paid a boat load for absolutely nothing.
Go to the lodge directly next to Green Rocks. Their patrons seemed happy every night, bringing in boat loads of fish.

If you have your own gear and know these waters well then it’s an OK place. If your a first time fisherman to the area then it’s going to suck. Didn’t give any guidance on how and where to go to catch fish. Provided minimal equipment that’s not updated or in working condition. We wasted 2 days fishing until other guests were kind enough to teach and show us where to fish. Management doesn’t interact at all with guests and seemed upset to be there. The dock hands and cook are great. But the dock hands are all new to they area so knowledge is limited.

Worst Alaska fishing experience I've ever had in 15 years!! 1 little halibut in 5 days of fishing no salmon. Other guest same experience, FYI bring your own fishing gear and rain gear. The staff was great for the resources they had . Highly not recommended for your dream Alaska fishing vacation

Great experience up in Petersburg, Alaska fishing for salmon and halibut. Green Rocks Lodge was on their A game! Beautiful views, reliable boats, good fishing gear, plenty of bait, hard working staff, good food. Can’t wait to go back again!

Area is great ! Fishing was great ! the Wranglers Jordan & Levi ) at the lodge were great ! The food was great ! The cooks were great ! The accommodation ( cabin # 1 and cabin # 2 ) are the lacking - no descent bathroom for 8 guys. The owner is only concerned about his take, how we maneuver around the channel markers, and basically non-existent after the preliminary first day. Your equipment is tired. The boats and motors need maintenance. We just got there at the tail end of August when I guess the season is dying down like everything around this place. Would I recommend this resort - no way ! There are two other resorts right beside the resort that may be better choices. The owner seems to play favorites. He was visibly absent most of the time and did little in attending to what good owners should do - that is talk to his guests about " how are doing, how can he help ". For me, the interaction was at the pick-up point and the discussion about navigating the channel system, so his boats did not get damaged. We booked early when there was lots of room left but ended up with the worse accommodation. He just seems to have a lack of interest in any NEW customers so BEWARE ! You are on your own ! Lucky for us there were other fishermen there who shared their wisdom about catching halibut or we probably would have come home empty. Dave, Paul, and Zack saved our bacon ! Oh, you might be fortunate to catch a glimpse of the owner sitting on the deck after you pay him..but from my experience that is about it

Went with a group of 10 guys for some hunting and fishing. We all had a great time. First off the food was excellent. The abundant and delitious Breakfasts and dinners hit the spot every time. We also had lunches to take out with us each day and were never without enough. The help loading and unloading the boats each morning and evening was superb, and watching her fillet the huge halibut and crab was fun.. Tim's knowledge of the area with were to find the bear and fish was top notch. I will be back and will never forget the time well spent at Green Rocks Lodge. The best part of the trip for me was filling 4 out of 5 bear tags 3 on the same day. !!!!!!!!

I started coming here about four years ago. I did not know what I was doing at all. I had never been on a Charter to go fishing in Alaska either. I went up to stay with Tim (the owner) and his crew. We caught nine Halibut (chickens) the first year. We were stoked! Did more research over the next two years and we did even better,maybe even great! My son caught 114 lbs halibut. We did it all on our own from reading maps, tide charts, all on our own. We even tied our own tackle. We chose to do self guilded and are we glad. Do your research! Catch some fish!
Green Rocks also not only gave us a great location to start from, they gave a great place to come back to. The Comfort food was just what you needed after a 12 hour day on the boat. The cabins were very clean and even more than you would expect on a island that is cut off from power and water. My son fell asleep on the couch several nights in the room watching Comedy Central on Direct TV.
Tim, your whole crew was great! Ian, Carson, Catfish, Cheech, Andrew and Ben. The food (Prime Rib and everything else) and service was great! Even just hanging out with you guys at lodge was fun! Thanks again for the adventure!
