Western Alaska lodging: Kodiak, Nome, Bethel and more
Hotels and lodges welcome birders, anglers and hunters
Alaska.com
Western Alaska's grand expanse of terrain, water and wildlife attracts many visitors with an interest in the outdoors. Its larger cities -- Kodiak, Bethel, Unalaska/Dutch Harbor and Nome -- put up quite a few visitors and governmental and commercial guests for the night.
In addition, the lodges of southwestern Alaska put up hundreds of anglers, birders and hunters each year. The Bristol Bay area is famed for its salmon and trout, and the Alaska Peninsula has bears, moose and caribou. King Salmon and Dillingham are popular launching pads for adventures in that area.
Birders and other wildlife fans also come to the area -- lists, cameras, binoculars and sketchpads in hand -- for a grand adventure.
Katmai National Park and Lake Clark National Park have limited accommodations, and there is lodging nearby.
The region is awash in national wildlife refuges, and there is also Wood-Tikchik State Park near Dillingham.
