Kasilof trip

Home was perfect for our family. Lots of room for visiting with friends and family. Conveniently located for site seeing, river fishing and charters. A couple of constructive suggestions: we would have liked to enjoy the yard more (perhaps cut the grass around the home and add a fire pit). Also there would be a beautiful view of the inlet if a couple of trees were cut or trimmed. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the property. Thank you to the owners who let us drop off our grocery items a little early!

Nice property on the Kenai Peninsula

A nice place with plenty of bed space for our 7 person family group. We had everything we needed, the house was clean, and it was easy to find using Maps on our I phones. It was in a nice central location with easy access to Soldotna, Ninilchik and Anchor Point.

This was a wonderful home! Very spacious and perfect kitchen to allow us the room to cook several dishes that were taken to my cousins wedding about 15mins away. The neighbors were wonderful and we will definitely consider staying here again for the next family event if it is available!

Great place

The place was very good, and the reason I gave a 4 stars was because on our last day we didn’t have hot water to take showers before leaving the place in the morning. I guess the house water boiler is powered by propane and they ran out on that day, which was little frustrating because was a cold morning and we decided to clean the place and shower before leaving. Otherwise it was a nice place. Ps: there’s no WI-FI on location.

Kasilof Dipnetting stay

This was our second time staying here and it was just as good as the first. When we arrived the power was out at no fault of the owner, but they gave us flashlights until the power came back on. We really enjoy staying here and can't wait to stay again!
