POLICIES

Availability, Rates and Quotes
Availability and rates are subject to change at any time and without notice. We recommend booking early to secure the best dates and rates. Verbal discussions with our staff are not guarantees of dates or rates. Be sure to request a written quote to secure the terms of your fishing trip. The Yakutat Lodge will honor pricing and hold dates provided in a written quote for up to 14 days from the invoice date.  Dates and rates in written quotes expire 14 days from the invoice date unless secured by deposit.
Deposits
We urge our guests to book their preferred accommodations and dates well in advance. The Yakutat Lodge is one of the most popular fishing lodges in Alaska and demand is high. Dates not under deposit or held by a quote may be sold to other guests, and rates are subject to change. To hold your desired dates, contact reservations at 1-800-YAKUTAT (1-800-925-8828) or email fish@yakutatlodge.com and request a written quote. A 50% deposit and executed contract is required at the time of booking to secure all reservations. Dates not under deposit or contract may be sold to other guests without notice. Reservations that do not fulfill the deposit and payment requirements above may be subject to cancellation.
Cancellations
We understand that at times unexpected things can get in the way of your Alaska sportfishing adventure. To protect against this, we recommend that all of our guests purchase travel insurance well in advance of their trip so they know they’re covered in the event of an emergency. The Yakutat Lodge is not responsible for loss of fishing time, lodging, food, transportation, baggage, or fish boxes, as well as flight delays or other incidents resulting from inclement weather or other conditions beyond our reasonable control.
The following policy applies to all cancellations:
All cancellations will be assessed a minimum fee of $100 per person. Cancellations made between 60 and 120 days prior to arrival date will be assessed an additional cancellation fee equal to 25% of the total package price or in the form of a non-returnable deposit good for one year in addition to the minimum cancellation fee.  Cancellations made fewer than 60 days prior to arrival will be assessed a cancellation fee equal to 50% of the total package price or in the form of a non-returnable deposit good for one year in addition to the minimum cancellation fee. There are no exceptions to this cancellation policy.
COVID-19 Concerns
In the event that the state of Alaska, federal or local government bans travel to Yakutat, then we will issue refunds as expeditiously as possible. If you choose to cancel travel because of COVID concerns, but travel to Yakutat is allowed, then the normal cancellation policy applies.
