The space
These homes were the dream of a custom builder from New York. They were built as his permanent home! He put so much care and talent into each detail. All the carvings and custom furniture you see he built! We hope that you will love and respect this beautiful piece of art as much as we do! If you want to do more than sleep in Alaska, but truly experience Alaska, this is the place for you!
Guest access
You will have both homes, plus the freezer in garage, and ability to store you fishing gear in the garage. You are not allowed to do any fish processing on the premises!! If it is found that processing was done, you will forfeit your deposit. We would be more than happy to refer you to amazing fish guides who will process for you, or reputable businesses in town that can do it as well. You are welcome to keep your packaged fish in the freezer in the garage until departure.
There is also a washer, dryer and dvd library in the stone entry area of the main house.
Other things to note

Please be aware that there are security cameras on the exterior front and back of the home to protect the house when it is vacant. No cameras are located inside the home, so cameras can only see what your neighbor can see.

Such a great place for a big group. 2 couples and 5 kids, everyone had their own bed. Well appointed kitchen for easy meal prep and easy access to Soldatna and the surrounding area. The hosts were super communicative and very helpful. The cabin was super cozy, clean, and comfy. Beautiful yard and views, we loved our stay!!

We would love the opportunity to host you again in the future!
We really enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of room for the 10 of us. This home was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. The owner was very quick to respond when we needed her. Would definitely recommend staying here.

A True Gem on the Kenai – Like a Four Seasons VRBOI’ve fished the Kenai with my boys for about six years, and each visit we’ve struggled to find high-quality accommodations—until now. While there’s no Four Seasons on the Kenai, JB’s property comes impressively close. I’d describe it as the Four Seasons VRBO of the Kenai Peninsula.The cleanliness was immediately noticeable, and the attention to detail throughout the property stood out. From the quality furnishings and comfortable mattresses to the premium bedding, full private showers, and an incredibly well-stocked kitchen—everything was thoughtfully chosen for comfort and function. There was always plenty of hot water, which we appreciated after long days on the river.Communication with the host was excellent, both before and during our stay. Prompt, helpful, and professional.In short, we were thrilled to finally find a property we can return to year after year.Many thanks to the hosts for providing such a top-tier experience!!

Wow! Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We so enjoyed hosting your group! I absolutely look forward to seeing you on our reservation list again! Again, many thanks!

Not a single complaint! Everything was spectacular, and very accommodating. The host Becky was on top of everything we needed. This home is amazing and every attention to detail was thought of. 10 of us between the two homes was a perfect fit. The kitchen is amazing, the appliances were professional grade and top notch. Also, the host has a tiny store inside the laundry room. If you forgot anything, the host has it for you. She also has Alaskan crafts for sell, which we took advantage of. The highlight was when a big moose walked into the property, just 10 feet away from us. We highly recommend this place!
Thanks Becky!

Excellent Log Home Vacation in the heart of the Kenai Peninsula
This log home complex exceeded our expectations and we will definitely stay here again when we visit next year. We reserved both the main log house and the adjacent log cabin for our family to stay at for a week-long schedule of wedding events. Everyone had comfortable beds to sleep in, plenty of bathrooms to share, very nicely appointed accommodations, a fantastic main kitchen and bar area with tons of bar stool seating for everyone, and a full kitchen for everyone's convenience in the smaller cabin (not so small, actually). The upgraded decor and appliances were fantastic (you'll love the pro-chef gas stove and ovens). And the owners bought an additional freezer chest for extra food items that we purchased to have on hand for the wedding festivities. I can't say enough about how responsive and accommodating the owners Becky and Jerry are. They ensured our stay was perfect. Book either or both of these cabins if you plan to visit the Soldotna area. You'll love your stay in this Kenai lodge paradise.

Thank you so much Joan for your kind words! You were honestly dream guests for us, and I cannot wait to host you again next year!
There were 9 of us that stayed here comfortably. All guests were thrilled with the accommodations. The overall experience was wonderful. Becky was an amazing host and very quick to respond to questions. The kitchen in the main house is an awesome gathering spot, with enough space to prepare food for the entire group. This house is a perfect Alaskan getaway for a large group. We hope to book again next year! Thanks for an amazing trip Becky! We hope to book again next year.

Thank you so very much Jack! I loved hosting your group! I look forward to having you back next year! Thanks again!
This property deserves better than a 5 star rating! There were 7 of us in town for a wedding and we couldn't have been happier. The cabins are beautifully appointed and extremely comfortable. Plenty of outdoor seating and great grill. The kitchen has every cooking utensil you could ever imagine. Plenty of dishes, silverware and glassware. All and all, we would stay there again in a heart beat!

About the host
Hosted by Jerry and Becky Peters
We visited Alaska in 2001 and fell in love. We talked and dreamed about owning our dream home there one day. We made more trips, and continued to "dream" about "someday". In 2018 we decided it was time. We traveled from our home in Southern California, and found our dream home in Soldotna , Alaska. We think you will agree after staying there that this place is unique and so very beautiful . We plan to retire there in a few years, but for now, we want to share it with others. We hope you enjoy.
Why they chose this property
We dreamed of owning a Log home some day. The moment we stepped into the property, we knew "this is the one". The previous owner was a custom builder who spent 15 years building his "dream" home. He spent hundreds of hours hand carving the pieces you see on the property, implementing antlers, and unique Alaskan details in all that he did. He built and carved the pieces you see on the property, including the oak leaf and acorn cupboard pulls, antler door pulls, the benches and even the carvings outside. He spared no expense or ignored no detail. It is truly a piece of "Art".
What makes this property unique
Not only is this a beautiful place, but it is a wonderful location. Centrally located of "K-beach", the road that takes you to Kenai, Soldotna, and Homer. You are just minutes away from the Kenai River and the Cook Inlet for world class fishing. Homer and Seward are a beautiful 1 hour and 45 minute drive away. Moose frequent the property, and in spring, momma moose often come to the property behind the house to have their babies.
