The house was just perfect for us! When we come back to fish we will definitely stay here again. Such a comfortable clean home. The chocolate covered coffee beans were the best. Thank you!

Beautiful cabin and great location
We enjoyed the beautiful copper landing cabin. The pictures don’t do justice. The home was warm, clean, and cozy. The location is great as well.

Beautiful Home
Very nice & roomy home. Clean & comfortable. Our host, Marypat was very informative of area activities. Her suggestion to take the Resurrection Bay with Fox Island cruise turned out awesome! Only suggestion would be to have supplementary heat in the baths. Thanks for sharing your home with us, Roger & Rhonda Tepen, and Tim & Sue Martens

Perfect cabin in the woods
We had a wonderful time at Willie’s Place. I don’t think the pictures do it justice both inside and outside. Marypat answered all of my questions immediately! She also gave us ideas for things to do in the area. Cooper Landing is a such a beautiful place. The kitchen was stocked with basic supplies for cooking and there wasn’t one thing we needed that we couldn’t find! The organic coffee that was supplied was delicious! We highly recommend Willie’s Place.

Perfect place to stay in Cooper Landing
We enjoyed this home very much! It is spacious, clean and so comfortable. The outdoor deck is amazing and perfect for cooking out. The basket of goodies was much appreciated. Kenai Lake is so close and is gorgeous. This home is only and hour from Seward. We enjoyed the water activities and hiking. The closest full grocery store is an hour away, which wasn't a problem since we spent time in Seward and stopped at Safeway on the way back to the home. There are great lodges close by for convenience items. We will be back and plan to stay a full week at this home next trip. Such an inviting property!

Beautiful home in the woods
Warm, spacious house with a cozy cabin vibe. Surrounded by woods, visiting birds and a peek-a-boo view of Kenai Lake. Came with my family to celebrate my brother's 40th birthday. Cooked meals in the well equipped kitchen and played games (they have a bunch downstairs). Owners live next door and are friendly and available if you need anything. Convenient location, minutes from Cooper Landing which has a few restaurants and convience stores. We took our raft out fly fishing on the Kenai where we saw a bear (at a safe distance on the shore while we were floating) and caught several dollys, rainbows and grayling- simply gorgeous out there. Heading out blueberry picking on the area today. Great property. Makes me want to buy a cabin. We would love to visit again. If you are coming down to the Kenai to go fishing with a group, this is the perfect place to stay!
