Our Story · King Salmon, Alaska

About Katmai B&B

A riverfront basecamp on the Naknek, built to make the trip of a lifetime feel simple.

Why We're Here

We built the place we'd want to stay.

We're uniquely situated on the Naknek River in King Salmon, the gateway to Katmai National Park and one of the world's great bear-viewing destinations. We know firsthand that traveling to Alaska can feel overwhelming, so we give you somewhere to call basecamp and all the information you need to make the trip simple and successful.

We started this journey for our guests. At our core, we've always wanted people to have a wonderful place to stay for their trip to Katmai. Our mission is to help our guests' dreams of visiting Alaska come true, and everything that might entail.

The team at Katmai B&B
How We Got Started

How the lodge came to be.

Katmai B&B grew out of a small King Salmon operation that started in 2018, built on close attention to detail and a willingness to help guests plan every piece of their trip.

After a couple of seasons of growing a devoted following, we expanded into lodging on the Naknek River, and Katmai B&B was born.

Today we're a riverfront basecamp for Brooks Falls and Katmai National Park, serving guests from around the world who come to see one of the greatest bear-viewing spots on earth.

Your Hosts

The people who run your trip.

Your hosts live on-site in King Salmon through the whole season, a call or text away. Long before you land, we're lining up the pieces that make Katmai hard to reach on your own: your flights, the round-trip out to Brooks Falls and back, park timing, and the day-to-day logistics.

You show up, we handle the rest, so the only thing on your plate is watching the bears.

Come stay with us.

We'd love to help make your Alaska trip real. Send your dates and we'll take it from there.
