A 25% deposit is required prior to December 1, 2005 to hold your 2006 dates and another 25% by January 15, 2006 with the balance due by June 1, 2006. Reservations made after June 1st require full payment at the time of booking.
Deposits will be refunded only if dates cancelled can be rebooked. Since bookings are set far in advance, there can not be partial refunds for late arrivals or early departures. Dierick's Tsiu River Lodge will not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, or injury to persons or property, however caused, or any cancellations or delays due to transportation or weather problems. Many natural variables have bearings on these factors.

Getting to The Lodge

Clients are responsible for all airfares and housing to and from Dierick's Tsiu River Lodge.
Clients fly from their originating city to either Cordova or Yaktuat, Alaska via Alaska Airlines, and then to Dierick's Tsiu River Lodge by FAA approved, single-engine aircraft.

Cost of the airfare to the lodge by air taxi depends on the number of people aboard. Sometimes air taxi fares can be reduced by splitting charter flights with incoming or outgoing clients.
We can make the air taxi reservations for you if you wish.

In order to serve you better, on your arrival we need to know how many pounds of fish you plan to take home with you. We pack the frozen fish in wetlock boxes which hold 70 lbs. maximum.

  • Warm (heated), comfortable cabin, with electricity
  • Bathrooms in each cabin
  • Four bunks per cabin with mattresses & linens
  • Home style meals served in lodge
  • Transportation to and from river from camp (all the fishing you want)
  • Preparation of your fish to take home (a fee is assessed to fillet, vacuum seal, box, and freeze your catch)
