Your Own Private Lodge
on Kachemak Bay

One group at a time, without a whole lodge buyout

The whole lodge is yours. Treehouse Cove hosts one family or group at a time, so the treehouse, the beach house, the cookhouse and Captain Scott's boat are reserved for your party alone, and Scott and Janet Ogan host you personally from the dock to the dinner table.

Children of all ages are welcome. Guided halibut and salmon, home cooked meals, and Alaska's only oceanfront treehouse, on a private cove near Homer’s Kachemak Bay.

Every stay is tailored to the group, with the lodge, boat, meals and daily adventures reserved exclusively for your party.

What Private Means Here

One booking at a time

We never mix parties. When your group is here, nobody else is staying at the lodge.

Every building is yours

The treehouse, the beach house and the cookhouse are all reserved for your group for the whole stay.

The boat is yours

Captain Scott's 28 foot landing craft fishes and explores with your group only, on your schedule.

Hosted by the owners

Scott guides and Janet runs the lodge. Each day is planned around your group, the tides and the weather.

Private All-Inclusive Lodge Stay

The whole cove, without a whole camp buyout. The boat and the crew are reserved for your group, with guided halibut, salmon, rockfish and lingcod fishing out of Seldovia, subject to seasons and weather.

2 to 8 guests

Out of Seldovia

Captain Scott's custom 28 foot landing craft takes your group out for halibut, salmon, rockfish and lingcod, fishing Kachemak Bay and Cook Inlet, with optional trips out into the Gulf of Alaska, with the pace set by your crew rather than a shared lodge schedule.

Fish runs are seasonal and fishing is subject to the weather. Lingcod does not open until July 1, and salmon availability depends on the runs. We fish each species when it is running and legally open.

Three handcrafted buildings

Where You'll Sleep at Treehouse Cove

Your hosts

Hosted by Captain Scott and Janet Ogan

Captain Scott brings decades of experience on Cook Inlet and Kachemak Bay waters, along with USCG master captain credentials and deep local knowledge. Scott built the Beach House by hand, the two of them built the Treehouse by hand, and Scott designed the boat you'll fish from and helped build it, doing everything but the welding.

The Ogans are authentic, lifetime Alaskans, not distant owners.

Treehouse Cove is owner operated. The people who meet your boat are the same people who cook your dinner and plan your days.

Good to know

  • You catch it, you keep it, cleaned and filleted

What Our Guests Say

“If you have ever wanted to sleep in a comfortable tree house, this place is for you. The tree house is very well built and has a great double bed and view. We saw an eagle family, otters, black bears, and Stellar Jays from the deck. Janet is a great cook and Scott has all the equipment and knowledge of the bay to allow great fishing outings.”
