The Cape Fox Lodge in Ketchikan, Alaska, will begin operating as the WestCoast Cape Fox Lodge on Jan. 1, when WestCoast takes over the management of the property. The parent company also operates the WestCoast International Inn in Anchorage.

The Cape Fox Lodge is owned by Cape Fox Corp., an Alaskan native business.
