Kenai River Adventure

This property was immaculate and the layout worked perfectly for our family. The river access was excellent as well. Property as described and then some! I recommend it without reservation as long as you can navigate safe but steep stairs to the water. Hope to be back!

Second year staying here even better!

Family of 9 and still had 2 beds left. The beds are really comfortable. Views and fire pit we especially good. Huge kitchen, great washer, and dryer, plenty of soap and Laundry detergent. Even though the fish count was down we came home with lots of filets! The fishing is especially good here. And we've already reserved this same house for next year!

AMAZING!!!

Best family trip ever! Prime location on the peninsula and steps away from the Kenai River. Lots of room & sleeping options for our large group. Enjoyed cooking together, bbq’ing, making s’mores around the campfire, playing horseshoes, fishing & sauna time. An eagle graced us every day sitting in the tree and we would watch him from the dining room window. Once when we were down at the dock cleaning fish he swooped down into the river just feet from us! Always super fast responses from Rachael, whenever we had any questions she would call me right away. She also gave us fishing tips and suggested places to eat. I didn’t get the pleasure of meeting her dad Tom but my family members who did said he was very nice. Day trips to Homer spit and a Whittier glacier tour are a must! We would definitely stay here again ❤️ thank you for your hospitality!!!

Wonderful Riverfront Home Away From Home!

This beautiful riverfront home did not disappoint, the amenities are abundant and location is in a word perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. So many precious moments made and much laughter shared around the fire pit, on the fishing dock and while hanging out in the great spaces up and down stairs. We were very successful fishing - both on glacial lake fly in excursions and deep sea fishing outings so the two refrigerators with freezers and the deep freeze were awesome! The owner even has scales to weigh, which was great. The one technology challenge we had was with the WIFI, three different carriers represented (AT&T, T-Mobile & Verizon) and we never could access WIFI we had the name and password and even reset the router multiple times. Highly recommend this property and the owner and care take Mr. Thom were wonderful to work with.

Best place on Kenia: Found!

We’ve fished here many times over the summers past and believe this spot on the river is set up for catching the daily limit without a doubt and ease. There’s a rock a little above the dock for fish to funnel close to the bank or rest behind. The cleaning station has a great surface with good running water. Wonderful net was provided too. Also enjoyed the bench for occasional breaks. It’s about 80 steps however helped stretched my legs and back out after standing awhile. The house is well appointed with Excellent appliances. Showers have great water pressure. My truly favorite thing was the sheets and beds were comfortable, most rental properties don’t consider the importance of a good nights rest. We truly enjoyed our stay and booked next years about 24-48 hours after we had arrived.

This place has anything and everything you could want or need. There's plenty of space, a well appointed kitchen, washer and dryer, fire pit, sauna, and more. The highlight is the river view and access, though. It just doesn't get better!
