The setting and views are wonderful. Service outstanding. Make sure the activities you want to do are available when you go. Not all of them arevavialible each day.

When I saw that other preposterous review, I simply had to knock it off the top! The Tutka Bay Lodge was amazing and a highlight of our Alaska trip. John and Nelda couldn't have been nicer in accomodating our diverse needs. We were a group of nine people: my husband and I, our three boys ages 17, 15 and 10... More

We, also, kayaked and saw cute sea otters, and we hiked a pretty... More

Wife and I had a wonderful week at the Tutka Bay Wilderness Lodge. This was part of our third trip to Alaska, and we have stayed at many lodges around the world as a part of our passion for fishing. Homer is, of course, one of the world-class venues for salt water fishing for halibut, salmon and reef fish, but... More

I'm sitting at Tutka Bay Wilderness Lodge as I type this review. I was concerned that normal life would take precedence after I arrived home and a review would fall by the wayside. Currently, I can see the lagoon, mountains, an eagle soaring and an otter resting in the water securely wrapped in kelp. (That's how otters rest.) Tutka Bay... More

The setting was breathtaking. Jon, Nelda and the staff provided warm hospitality for our visit to Tutka Bay to celebrate our 25th anniversary. This was our first visit to Alaska, and we learned a great deal from our hosts about the history of the state and the general area. We enjoyed the hiking and sea kayaking.

Our visit to Tutka Bay had many highlights and most especially the charming hosts, Jon and Nelda, who offer great food and a high level of comfort in a beautiful setting. Be sure and have Nelda tell you about the Christmas poster. We had a cabin that is shown in one of the posted photos. We thought it was pretty... More

We just finished our stay at Tutka Bay Lodge and we needed to write to you to rave about this extraordinary lodge in a magical setting off Homer, Alaska. Tutka offers kayaking, boating, hiking, sauna, jacuzzi and even ATV tours. The food, prepared by a friendly and professional staff, was exquisite. The real gems that define Tutka, however, are its...

We were greeted like dear friends and treated as such for our entire stay. The food was fabulous with great attention paid to presetation whether it was a sack lunch or a wonderful... More

Our family, including 2 teenage grandsons have just returned from the lodge. From the time Jon met us on the dock the hospitality was wonderful I felt like we had been welcomed to their home and in reality we were. The staff was so friendly and informative about their past diverse travel experiences. The food was excellent and the anticipation... More
