Great Lake for Fishing

If you are traveling to Alaska for two of the state's biggest attractions, plan your trip to Campbell Lake. This scenic lake features great sport fishing and is a base for a number of scenic airplane tours over the wilderness area. The area is surrounded with homes of locals who own floatplanes. The lake offers a runway and the residents are able to store their planes right on the lake near their homes. Imagine walking out your back door and hopping on your plane. The lake is filled with salmon during spawning season because they pass through on their way north through Campbell Creek. The area is home to numerous bed and breakfasts and makes a great getaway for couples, as well as families and individuals who want to go fishing. You can choose from the Summerset B&B, the Jewel Lake B&B, the Swiss Efficiency B&B, and the Elderberry B&B. For dining, try the Kincaid Grill and Wine Bar, Las Margaritas Mexican and Italian restaurant, and local favorite, Jewel Lake Pizza and Tea Garden. This lake is a popular destination for locals and visitors to Alaska, and provides access to some of state's best activities.
