Independent Systems, Seamless Experience

Off-Grid Living on Raspberry Island

isn’t a talking point here—it’s simply how we live. There is no town or public infrastructure on Raspberry Island, and access is only by boat or seaplane. Independence is not an aesthetic; it is our daily reality.
 
At Kodiak Raspberry Island Remote Lodge, we generate our own electricity through a combination of hydro and solar power, with two permanent magnet hydro alternators and 48 bifacial solar panels totaling nearly 26 kW of capacity. Power is stored in a lithium iron phosphate battery bank of more than 60 kWh and distributed throughout the property by two 15 kW inverters. For added redundancy, the system is backed by both 40 kW CAT and 28 kW Northern Lights diesel generators. The result is seamless, uninterrupted power — 24 hours a day — without reliance on the outside world.
 
Our fresh water begins in the same watershed that powers us. A dedicated line diverts from the same system, passes through filtration and pressure regulation, and supplies the property with remarkably pure, cold mountain water — some of the best you will ever drink.
 
Operating in true wilderness requires self-reliance. Over the years, we have built the infrastructure to support that standard: full maintenance and workshop facilities, a complete wood shop, on-site fish processing with walk-in freezer storage, equipment sheds, and dedicated on-site housing for our team. Living and working here requires more than seasonal logistics—it requires commitment.
 
Our location within Alaska’s wild demands independence, yet guests experience only comfort. Most forget we are off-grid at all. That is exactly as it should be.

Mike B., AK

Thanks for the opportunity to hunt the Raspberry Island area and to learn of the wonderful opportunities for duck hunting and retrievers in Kodiak…. You and your family were spectacular in your hospitality and the effort you made to put us into the right places was excellent…. You certainly have a great location.

THE LODGE

Kodiak Raspberry Island Remote Lodge is an off-grid wilderness property within the Kodiak Archipelago, built around access to fishing, wildlife, and coastal Alaska while maintaining comfort, privacy, and simplicity in a remote setting.

The Main Lodge

Built from locally milled Sitka spruce, the main lodge is the center of daily life at the property—warm, open, and positioned to look directly across Raspberry Strait toward the surrounding mountains and ocean.

Private Cabins

Eight private, fully appointed guest cabins offer quiet separation from the main lodge while remaining only a short walk away. Each cabin has its own view of the surrounding property and wilderness beyond.

Food and Drink

Meals are prepared from scratch each day, often centered around locally harvested seafood, with fresh breads, plated dinners, and complimentary beer and wine served in a relaxed communal atmosphere.

Pause

The pace naturally slows between activities—whether in the wood-fired sauna, hot tub, cold plunge, or simply watching weather and wildlife move through the strait from the deck.

Location

Located roughly 35 miles from Kodiak City on Raspberry Island, the lodge sits within a remote network of protected waterways, forested mountains, and open Pacific coastline accessible only by boat or floatplane.
