The Islander Lodge

At The Islander Lodge, we believe the best fishing trips don’t end with exhaustion — they end with satisfaction, comfort, and stories worth retelling. Located 30 miles offshore at the Chandeleur Islands, our fully remodeled jack-up fishing lodge offers the perfect escape for serious anglers and laid-back vacationers alike. From the moment you step aboard, you’ll discover a floating oasis that’s always safe, always clean, and always ready for your next adventure.

Whether you’re reeling in world-class redfish and speckled trout, enjoying a guided wade fishing trip, or casting lines from our illuminated night-fishing dock, The Islander Lodge makes it easy to stay where the action is. With hearty, all-inclusive meals, open bar access, and air-conditioned lodging, your day on the water ends with a satisfying dinner, a cool drink, and a good night’s sleep—far from the chaos of the mainland.

No boat? No problem. Bring your own or let us help with transportation and skiff rentals. Our lodge is your home base for fishing, fun, and unforgettable Gulf Coast views. Whether you’re here with a group of friends or booking a private adventure, The Islander Lodge makes every trip to the islands feel like a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
