We had the best adventure on the Kenai Peninsula and are thrilled that we chose the Moose Cabin during our stay on the Kenai River! Ron and Katya were the best host we’ve ever had and even cheered us on as we reeled in our first Sockeye! The cabin was perfect and very clean! We would absolutely stay here again over and over! We enjoyed our evenings on the river bank cooking and fishing! Our 4 night stay here was the highlight of our Alaskan adventure!

We had a great time!!

Stayed in the Moose cabin and wolf den, both were immaculate!! Thank you Ron for helping us book our fishing trips. Captains Keith and Sean Smart made our trips the best!! Beautiful grounds and the fire pit was amazing. The fishing docks were great to fish or just relaxing on the river. We couldn’t have found a better place to stay!! Thanks again Ron for everything!!

Great location

Had a nice, relaxing stay. Great location, beautiful scenery. Excellent fire pavilion. Really friendly host! Would definitely book again. A TV might be a nice addition, to be able to see news etc in the evening. But, wouldn’t keep us from booing again ;)

Amazing cabin for any trip to the Kenai!

Moose cabin is an amazing cabin for any trip to the Kenai! We had a friends trip for fishing and the cabin and all the grounds at Eagle's Eye are simply amazing. Ron has put so much time and through into every detail of the cabin and the property to make it warm and inviting for guests, it is wonderful. You have everything you need for a perfect stay and have a remarkable experience. We will be back!

Amazing property. Best fire pit in Alaska!

Great cabin right on the Kenai river. My wife and 2 teen age boys stayed here for 7 nights; plenty of room, super clean and great fishing off his private river bank. The pavilion has an outstanding fire pit, with unlimited free wood. Ron was a perfect host and may know everyone on the peninsula for whatever you may need. Well worth the money!

This was our family's introduction to Alaska and it is going to be hard to beat. This property and all the cabins are truly amazing. You are surrounded by the feel of Alaska, steps from the river and all the fishing you could want to a grocery store in minutes. Alot of heart and soul has gone into this property and all it offers to visitors. Campfires, fishing, horseshoes, the company of other guests, and so much more. We will definitely return. Thank you Ron!

Our Journey to the Kenai River: A Tale of Love, Exploration, and Homecoming

As a Montana native and my wife hailing from Donetsk, Ukraine, our journey together over the last 25 years has been a testament to love, adventure, and the pursuit of a dream. Celebrating a quarter of a century of marriage, we've been incredibly fortunate to find and make our home on this prime piece of Kenai River property, embodying the essence of the Alaskan spirit we've grown to cherish deeply.

Our path to this beautiful estate wasn't swift; it was a deliberate quest that spanned over a decade. We searched tirelessly across the Kenai Peninsula for a place that felt like it was truly meant for us—a place where we could envision spending our golden years. This pursuit was driven by more than just the desire for a scenic backdrop; it was about finding a location that resonated with our souls, where the serene beauty of nature and the vibrant wildlife could serve as daily reminders of life's incredible wonders.

Having now called this place home for so many years, we reflect on our decision with no regrets, only gratitude. Our life here, on the brink of retirement, is everything we hoped for and more. The Alaskan lifestyle, with its promise of tranquility, adventure, and the raw beauty of the wilderness, has been more rewarding than we could have ever imagined.

This property isn't just land to us; it's a culmination of dreams, a sanctuary where we've spent nearly a decade of our lives, and a testament to our journey together. Living here, we've embraced the rhythms of the Kenai River, the changing seasons, and the wildlife that shares our space, enriching our lives beyond measure.

As we continue to build our life here, each day is a new chapter in our ongoing adventure in Alaska. Our love for this place and for each other only deepens with time, solidifying our belief that we found the perfect spot to spend our forever in the majestic wilds of the Kenai Peninsula.

Why they chose this property

A Legacy of Fishing: Our Property's Historic Charm

Nestled on land with deep historical roots, our property stands as a bridge between the past and the present. Originating from the 1850s, it once served as a crucial fishing waypoint for the Russians during the vibrant days of the Russian Trade. The remnants of an old wagon trail, still etched across our land, offer a tangible connection to those early days, inviting guests to wander through history and explore the narratives that have shaped this region.

Renowned for its exceptional fishing, this area was once the pinnacle of the early forefathers' fishing expeditions. Today, it retains its status as a premier fishing destination, blending the rich traditions of the past with the innovations of modern angling. The property sits near rapids where fish gather in abundance, creating a prime fishing spot as they prepare to navigate upstream. Right in front of our doorstep lies one of the area's finest rainbow trout holes, echoing the land's longstanding reputation as a fisherman's paradise.

Our property is more than just a place to fish; it's an opportunity to immerse yourself in the area's storied past while engaging with the natural bounty that has drawn people to these waters for centuries. Here, fishing is not just an activity—it's a connection to the legacy of those who have fished these waters before us, offering a unique blend of historical exploration and outdoor adventure against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty.

Choosing this property means becoming part of a legacy where history and nature converge, providing a fishing experience that's as rich in stories as it is in catches. It's a chance to live amidst the echoes of history, surrounded by the pristine wilderness of the Kenai River, where every cast connects you to the timeless allure of Alaska's great outdoors.

What makes this property unique

Idyllic Alaskan Haven: Our Nearly 2-Acre Riverside Retreat

From the moment my wife and I laid eyes on this almost 2-acre slice of Alaskan paradise, it was love at first sight. Our initial encounter with the land was marked by a memorable welcome from a lone eagle, perched right in front of what would become our picture window, vocalizing loudly as if to greet us into our future home. Over the years, we've come to understand the eagle's affinity for this place, with abundant food and ideal conditions for these majestic birds to thrive, mate, and raise their young.

Nestled along the banks of the Kenai River, our property boasts unparalleled views of the surrounding mountains, creating a picturesque backdrop to our daily lives. A gentle trail leads down to a prime fishing spot directly in front of our home, where the lifecycle of the wild unfolds before our eyes. Here, we witness the awe-inspiring sight of King Salmon nesting and leaping from the water, a testament to the river's rich ecosystem.

Our days are filled with the constant presence of eagles and a symphony of bird calls, each adding to the vibrant tapestry of life that surrounds us. The area's natural beauty offers endless opportunities for exploration and engagement with the wilderness, ensuring that life here is anything but mundane. Despite the lively environment, there's a profound sense of peace that comes with our secluded, natural setting.

Living here is a daily adventure, immersed in the tranquility of Alaska's wilds yet always within reach of nature's most exhilarating displays. It's a balance of relaxation and excitement, where the wonders of the natural world are our constant companions. This nearly 2-acre haven is not just a place we call home; it's a living, breathing sanctuary where life in all its forms converges, creating a truly unique and cherished existence.
