THE EAGLES NEST - Home on the Kenai River
My favorite Airbnb ever, great atmosphere, great people, very clean, very friendly!

On-Site Kenai River Fishing: Soldotna Apartment!
Great location and beautiful view! I’m glad they mentioned stairs - be prepared if you select this place. Very quiet and cozy. A little clunky getting into the place at first regarding the bottom door lock but they responded and acted quickly!

Unit A at the Kenai River
Wow, what a great vacation! We could not have asked for anything more. Our hosts, Sarah, Roly, and Marilyn, took such great care of us from the time we arrived, until the day we left. Our apartment was as advertised, and set the perfect location for a great fishing trip. The river access was excellent, just a brief walk to the platform. The fish cleaning station was well lit, and very clean. There are vacuum sealers for your use to preserve your fish and several deep freezers to store your daily catch in until you leave. We were minutes from Fred Meyers, and Safeway, as well as some great places to eat. If you go, be sure to eat at Mykels, and the Acapulco. We are so looking forward to returning, and would highly recommend this property for your ultimate fishing experience, or just an amazing getaway.

Kenai Living Waters Lower level on the Kenai River
Sue and Mike are very friendly and accommodating! The house is modern, clean, roomy and beautifully decorated. The hosts have it well stocked and have thought of everything to make it feel homey. The pictures don’t do it justice! Fishing on the Kenai was a blast. Most of us caught our limit daily. Would definitely go back!! Thank you soooo much for sharing your amazing home, Sue and Mike!

Unit D at the Kenai River
This place is very nice and in a great location

The Bears Den at Catch’em AK
nice place. had places to process fish and big chest freezers to put them in, very convenient.

Two Sisters Lakeside Inn
Pauline was such a generous and kind host and it was everything she described and more. We were so blessed by the peaceful settings and the very comfortable home with so many small extras that made you feel welcome! Do not hesitate to choose to stay here. It is wonderful!

Log apartment near a lake.
The apartment was squeaky clean, new, quiet, had all the amenities you need and beautiful surroundings. Much nicer than pictures looked online. Very cozy & comfortable

Alaska Homestead Retreat on Kasilof River 3BR/2BA
Gary’s place is very special and located above the Kasilof river with incredible views. We could hardly leave our seats in front of the windows watching soaring eagles, moose and fisherman trying for salmon. This airbnb is one in a million.

Coho Cabin
Beautiful house close to fishing with stunning views. Only thing that would have topped this is if we would have gotten some northern lights. Lots of space, and amenities, bbq, tons of spices (which was great since we had none), very comfortable stay that felt like home. Hated leaving.

Lakefront next to Kenai and Kasilof Rivers.
Amber was amazing! We communicated periodically for several months before our stay, about things to do, amenities at the home, and other trip-related matters. Amber was always super responsive and went above and beyond. The hot tub was incredible, especially with the gorgeous lake view, and it was nice to be able to grill dinner each night on the back deck. There was plenty of room for the six of us, and we all felt right at home. For those interested in fishing, the place is situated about halfway between the Kenai and Kasilof Rivers and between Seward and Homer. There is also a freezer on the back deck for storing fish, as well as an excellent processor up the road in Soldotna (Tanner’s). The kitchen was supplied with everything but your food (spices, pots and pans, utensils, etc.), and the washer & dryer came in very handy. I could go on and on, but I’ll just end by saying that we would 100% stay with Amber again if we’re back on the peninsula.

Waterfront Cottage
This little cottage was so adorable and comfy! Great view of the ocean and everything was super comfortable inside

Loon Lake, Soldotna Alaska
the cabin was a great place to stay with my 2 grown grandsons and son for a fishing adventure in alaska. have rented other cabins in soldotna in previous years but this one stands way out in front. the cabin was well stocked, clean and beds were comfortable. the view of the lake was spectacular. based on my recommendation one of my friends has booked a cabin at the lake for next year.

Kenai 6BR Villa w/Ocean & Mountain View
Great location and beautiful view on a clear day. Your right on the ocean and just a short walk to the large beach. The 2 bathrooms can make it uninviting to larger groups but really that is the only downside as there is lots of room throughout the house.

Riverfront Ranch + Cabin
Can’t wait to come back again! Absolutely beautiful property with excellent accommodations and access to fishing!

NON-combat zone fishing on the Kenai
We stayed here from September through December and we LOVED it. So quiet and peaceful and being above the river never gets old. I could sit in the living room by the fireplace and watch eagles soar by the windows all day. The house has everything you’d need and Rachel is a fabulous host. She was quick to respond and made the whole stay amazing.
