About this property
Tustumena Lodge in Kasilof, AK 11 cabins available
Get away from it all and enjoy what Alaska has to offer! Our rustic lodge is set in the middle of the Kenai Peninsula Borough surrounded by the best rivers and lakes for world class salmon and halibut fishing, as well as kayaking, canoeing, and swimming. Kasilof and surrounding areas also offers an abundance of activities such as hiking trails, the Kenai Cultural Exhibit, breweries, and whale, moose, caribou, and bear watching, etc. A day trip to Homer will have you on a Halibut Charter or go North in the opposite direction and be in Seward taking a water cruise to the amazing Kenai Fjords.
Your cozy cabin is the perfect place to unwind, or if you prefer, use it as your home base while you explore the surrounding area. Your room will include a kitchenette, compact refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, 3/4 bath, and a comfy bed to help unwind after your explorations.
There are 10 Cabins available, 8 of which sleep up to 4, and 2 Cabins with lofts that sleep up to 6.

Booked a room with 3 large beds for 6 ppl. When we got there we were told they have NO rooms with 3 beds and never put 6 ppl in a room. So I had to rent and pay for a second room. The owner was nice enough, but the rooms were very dirty. Bugs everywhere and the floor boards were so buckled we tripped every time we went to the bathroom. Stained bedding. No paper towels, no coffee supplies even though there was a pot. I hate to write a bad review bc the permeate were very nice. But it really was the worst accomodations of our whole week trip.

Rustic cabin
At arrival confusion prevailed. Not only had we already paid online through VRBO but also had to pay again upon arriving. Host had not received anything in account from VRBO, Host assured there would be a reimbursement, but there appeared to be a disconnect between lodge and VRBO. Actions are still pending. Room was cold until space and wall heaters were turned on. Slight leak under front of toilet. Room was rustic and comfortable. Location to fishing on Kasilof River is extremely good.
