About this property

Cozy Cabin on a Beautiful Lake with Big Parking

Situated on a beautiful lake, this cozy cabin is great for a peaceful escape, or as a base for Alaskan adventures! Located between Kenai and Soldotna - the cabin is a short drive away from world class salmon fishing and scenic hiking trails. The property is adjacent to a 1.2 million acre moose preserve, which is the perfect location for snow machining, four-wheeling and hunting. The cabin sleeps three in its ladder accessed sleeping loft, and there is a futon in the living room, supplied with sheets, pillows and blankets. FYI water supply is from well water.

What a beautiful place to stay. We felt welcomed and comfortable in the cozy little cabin. The property grounds were absolutely stunning, wish we made more time to enjoy. The hosts were fantastic! I can't say enough good things about them. Peter went out of his way to bring me a patch for my waders so I didn't miss any quality time fishing, Thank You again..I definitely will return

Beautiful little cabin on small lake. We enjoyed our stay. Watching the loons and eagles in the evening from deck was pretty cool. Host friendly and reached out to us to see if there was anything we needed.

Nice, relaxing stay right on a lake

Great stay, enjoyed the lake and canoeing right by a bald eagle (canoe, paddle board, and kayak were available on the property)!FYI: Recommended to bring bottled water with you during your stay. Cabin is set deep in the neighborhood and you will take several right angle turns while on the same road (perhaps due to the history of military and homestead square tracts).

Cozy and perfect

The place was so peaceful and quiet. The lake is beautiful. The freezer was exactly what we needed with all of the fishing on the kenai. The bed is comfortable as well.

This tiny cabin was absolutely perfect for our stay. The owners are very nice and they thought of everything from several toiletry items to condiments in the frig and an air fryer. There is a charcoal grill and large freezer on the large patio. Nice private lake with canoes, chairs, BBQ, and a dock. We can't wait to rent out their larger cabin once they are finished with it.

Perfectly Described

Property was exactly as advertised; SUPER quite and peaceful setting. While technically not "off the grid", it felt that way to someone from a big city. So it has all the creature comforts while still relatively remote. And both the property owners were extremely responsive with questions. Highly recommend.

Nice cabin

Nice cabin but to get to the "outhouse" you need to run 100 feet through an unmowed meadow. Not very nice if it has rained before.

Amazing Setting, Nice Cabin...

First, Peter had addressed all the issues as soon as he could, and refunded 50% of the cost to compensate, however: 1. There was no response from the host days before check in and hours afte checkin, some issue with comm. on the app. 2. The water in the cabin smelled bad, and bad smell from all drains, there's definately a plumbing issue, and im not sure about the water supply, it could be that all the watewr in the area are like that, maybe its well water but it was not fun. Sorry. I wouldnt recommend before fixign the water issue
