Perfect Location

We stayed at the property which was near a family member’s cabin on the Kenai River. It was the perfect location for us to stay at night and fish during the day. Having two freezers to store our catch and laundry available was great. The property manager was responsive and helpful.

Alaska Adventure

Our stay was great! We had 6 people and everyone had plenty of room. The house is located in a perfect spot to venture out and explore the peninsula. It was fully stocked and communication with the host was outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would definitely stay there again!

Alaska VRBO review

Five of us stayed at the property and were very pleased with the amenities and the property in general. The deck was spacious and provided a nice place to enjoy cocktails in the evening. The Bar-b-que worked fine and we used it a number of times to cook fish. A small freezer on the deck allowed us to freeze some of our fish that we brought home to smoke. All in all a great place for all of us to relax and enjoy our stay.

Great Spacious Cabin

The location of this cabin is about 5 min drive from the center of Soldotna. Super short drive to geocery store. The cabin is huge and spacious! We were a party of 5 and had enough space. Kitchen were a little under equipped lacking of backing sheets or pans, etc. . . We enjoyed this location. The lake wasnt accessible or can be viewed, it appears to be peivate lake with private homes. Other than that its great and clean! Host is very communicative
