Patagonia Baker Lodge ReviewThis is one place really focused on fly-fishing enthusiasts' needs, from McKenzie drift boats to zodiacs to a tie-table in an upstairs lounge with a glacier view to sit down and prepare to outsmart the fish. The lodge rests on the waterfront of the Baker River, the most powerful in the country, but downstream of the planned dams. At this point, the crystal-clear river is relatively wide, nearing Lake Bertrand, and the lodge takes in the marvelous view of the forest, topped off by Andean glaciers. It has roughly 1,000 sq. m (10,764 sq. ft.) of floor space but just six double rooms, all with a river view. The white-shingle, green metal-roofed building is one-storied except for the double-story lounge, decorated with Gothic wall tapestries and featuring a terrace overlooking the river. The carpeted rooms are conservative in style, with comfortable beds, tan- and cream-colored walls, and wood-burning stoves. Fishing season runs from late October to late April. The lodge can receive up to 24 guests. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
