WERE BACK…. CABIN AT THE BLUFF OF KENAI RIVER WITH MOUNTAIN VIEW

With breathtaking views of the Kenai River Mouth, Beach and Cook Inlet, this newly remodeled cabin is in the perfect location. Situated in the heart of the peaceful and picturesque Kenai Old Town, you will be within easy reach of all amenities, whilst still being a few minutes’ walk from the beach and river mouth. The cabin has a luxurious sleeping loft (ladder access only) with a California King sized bed, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway.

The cabin has a front porch and outdoor furniture, for you to sit and enjoy the spectacular scenery. Beluga whales can sometimes be spotted in the Inlet. We are in a fantastic spot for dip net fishing, and the cabin is fitted with an outdoor fish cutting table and chest freezer.

Note: We have no means of disposing of fish carcasses from the property. The City of Kenai requires that fishermen dispose of fish carcasses in the water at the beach. Secondary processing, washing, vacuum sealing and freezing of fish fillets can be done outside the cabin, which is equipped with a covered, lit, outdoor area with running water, power, a fish cutting table and small chest freezer. However, fish may only be brought INSIDE the building for cooking, small amounts of filleted fish only. ALL fish processing must take place outside, using the facilities provided. Any sign or odor indicating fish processing has taken place inside the cabin will put 100% of your damage deposit at risk. It is not our intent to withhold your damage deposit but you are NOT allowed to bring fish into the cabin! And if you chose to ignore this rule you may sacrifice 100% of your deposit.

The cabin is heated and features a kitchen and a furnished lanai, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Everything you need to stay is there. Was surprised that the windows don't open in the cabin and with no ac it was a bit warm in the loft. Fan helped move air but it was raining and we couldn't open the door for air exchange. Very cute place and very clean. Would be great if you could park a little closer because hauling all our luggage in the pouring rain over the lawn was a bit messy.

Beautiful cabin on a bluff with beach views

We loved this cabin! It is set in the perfect location in Old Town Kenai. It's on a bluff overlooking the beach and is within walking distance of restaurants and tourist sites. There is even a fish cutting station off to the side of the cabin. I left something in the cabin and the owners even mailed it back to me. This place is great for a fishing weekend or just a getaway. Highly recommended!

Amazing!

I truly enjoyed my stay in the Petersen Cabin. It was very clean and neat with all the amenities. Emma was especially gracious and if we had any questions (even after hours) we received a reply almost immediately. The view is simply breathtaking and the people were very friendly. The cabin sits on the bluff and there is a path and walking bridge to the beach. Old Kenai is full of history and it was very interesting to learn. I would definitely recommend taking advantage of this opportunity!
