Alaska Fishing Trip

Our group of 6 guys had a great time staying in Marissa's home for our salmon fishing trip to the Kenai/Kalisof rivers. The home was exactly as described. Clean, easy to find, great location, close to town and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this home.

House was nice. Host left a smore out and keychains for the kids, which we felt was a nice touch!! Everything was clean, and organized. My youngest kid wanted us to rent the house forever :)Instructions were clear and concise. Gaining access to the property was simple.

Great Fishing Trip

We traveled to Soldotna for a Halibut charter and some salmon fishing. The house was comfortable, very clean and in a nice quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our trip very much and had a lovely stay. Check-in and out was super simple and the most straightforward I’ve ever experienced at a VRBO! The host was great with communication and answered all of my questions within a few hours of my asking. Would definitely rent here again on another trip!

Great house convenient location

For a first time renter on VRBO I had a great experience! The location was great! Close by all of Soldonta’s fishing spots. The house was accurately described. It met the needs of our party 6. There were some items that were missing like a toilet plunger and a broom and dustpan but other than that the house was furnished withe everything we needed. The owner Marissa was very prompt in our communication and very pleasant to work with. Will definitely rent from again!!

Home away from home

We were a group of four adults on a weeklong fishing trip to Kenai peninsula. This house was very clean, recently updated, very well equipped and spacious. Has 2 floors of living space. On the first floor is the kitchen, living room and 3 bedrooms, including master suite, also one additional bathroom off the hallway. Downstairs is spacious family room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Kitchen was very well equipped with new gas range and extra freezer outside. Would stay again. The owner was very accommodating and helpful prior to the trip. Two suggestions: sun blocking blinds for the bedrooms and access to garden water hose outside.
