Very clean , well stocked with the essentials. Beautiful views. Hot tub and grill were wonderful. Only drawback was that loft didn’t have blackout curtains, but eye masks were provided. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Place for the Whole Family

Our family loved our stay at Shackleford Creek! The kids were so excited to have the loft area all to themselves - toys and movies and planty ofnspace to spread out. The adults in our party loved the serene setting, all the windows, and the hot tub! It was a wonderfully relaxing place to end our 2 week travels around Alaska.

Peaceful Bliss

The Shackleford House was more than we could have imagined. It was located on a quiet street, and was unequivocally peaceful with the sound of a creek running near by. The communication was fantastic, and the home very well appointed. Thank you for a very peaceful stay!

Cooper landing stay

What a perfect spot to land after exploring the Kenai peninsula ! House was spacious and very well equipped! The loft area was perfect for my son to have his own space. Easy drive to Seward, Whittier, and Soldotna. Host was extremely helpful!!!

Great Place to Stay on the Kenai

House was a perfect basecamp to explore all the Kenai Peninsula has to offer. Just a few minutes from fishing and hiking near Cooper Landing and only an hour from Seward. House was clean, spacious, and had all the amenities you’d want. Owner communication was great. 10/10.

Perfect start to our Alaska Adventure!!

The house was perfect and location was ideal for our stay in the Kenai Peninsula. Waking up to mountain views every day was amazing! It was an easy drive to Seward for activities (if you have a chance to do the Seward Helicopter flightseeing/dog sled tour do it! It was a family favorite!). We also did a fishing trip down the Kenai River that was fun and the scenery was gorgeous! For dinner try the Kingfisher Roadhouse, the Caribou Stroganoff was delicious!! We would definitely recommend a stay at The Shackleford House!

Beautiful Home, Great Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Shackleford Creek Mountain House. The location is peaceful, yet conveniently close enough to hiking and fishing. The drive to Seward for the National Park is an easy and beautiful one. The house itself is comfortable and very clean. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are oh-so-comfy. Our 11 year old grandson especially enjoyed having the loft and tv to himself. Both the host, Tim, and the concierge, Stefanie, are responsive and friendly. If we return to the Kenai Peninsula, we will definitely book this home again.

Perfect Retreat

My wife and I spent our 25th anniversary in Alaska. I wanted to plan something unique and special and Cooper Landing did not disappoint. Not only was the location ideal to see everything (Seward, Homer, Whittier) the house was the perfect retreat after long days of exploring. Unwinding in the hot tub, relaxing in the loft listening to nature, or eating breakfast looking at the magnificent mountains, this home had everything we could possibly want. And corresponding with the owners was a breeze - they were so timely and provided us with great information about the area. All around a joy.

Awesome Stay!

We had a great girls trip to this beautiful property. The cabin is so idyllic and beautifully set up - we were able to cook some great meals, explore the many trails in the area, paddle board on the lake and wind down in the hot tub. We can’t wait for a return visit!
