How we got started

Steven & Tiara moved to King Salmon, Alaska, after Steven had completed a 6-year enlistment with the USAF to continue his Air traffic control career as a contractor for the FAA.

Together they dreamed of owning a lodge in Alaska, and in 2018, Journey began as a fishing guide service in the small town of King Salmon.

After two years of growing the business, the time came to expand into providing lodging for fishing and non-fishing guests alike, and thus Katmai B&B was started.

Between Katmai fishing guides and Katmai B&B, they serve guests from around the world, helping them achieve their dreams of fishing & bear viewing in one of the most remote corners of Alaska.
