About this property

Harmony Lodge at Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge and Cabins

5 DAY MINIMUM $500 PER NIGHT OR $3,000 WEEKLY RATE PLUS 3% TAX LOCATED ON THE FUNNY RIVER ROAD TO MOONSHINE DRIVE SOUTH SIDE OF KENAI RIVER SLEEPS 1 TO 6. NO PROCESSING OR FREEZING OF FISH ALLOWED ON PROPERTY.

Our Harmony Lodge is a wood sided home perched at the top of the bank with picturesque views throughout and can easily accommodate 1 to 6 people based on your desire for privacy. Entry is via steps to a large private deck so main level of Harmony Lodge is on 2nd floor. The Harmony Lodge has 2 bedrooms (1 a sleeping loft) furnished with locally crafted Alaskan Spruce log furniture. On the main floor near the one full bathroom and a private bedroom with queen bed and 1 set of twin bunk beds. One full set of linens per bed and one set of towels per guest per stay provided. Spanning the width of upper level of the lodge is a large loft with 1 queen bed and 2 twin day beds. The great room with its large panoramic windows includes a modern kitchen with gas stove/oven, microwave, side-by-side refrigerator with ice maker, (no dishwasher) with a 4 bar stool island counter and a locally crafted spruce dining table that seats 6. For your relaxing pleasure there is a large couch, double recliner, rockers and a flat screen television. The spacious deck offers picturesque viewing of the Kenai Mountains and the Kenai River. There are metal steps that drops 100 feet from the "Bluff" that overlooks our Kenai River frontage for fishing with high waders and your own fishing gear. The Harmony Lodge great room has a wood burning stove, as well as, gas wall thermostat heater that provides all the warmth you may need during your stay. Cable TV, WIFI Internet available. Limited firewood. Community laundry available. Check-in and Check-out Clean per stay. NO PROCESSING OF FISH ALLOWED ON PROPERTY.

The Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge & Cabins is nestled on the south bank of the Kenai River off Funny River Road 17 miles from town of Soldotna, Alaska. Our unique homestead will be the ideal place to start and end your day as you explore the "Last Frontier”. The town of Soldotna is centrally located for you to experience all the Kenai Peninsula has in store for your Alaskan adventurous vacation. We provide a unique place to stay that will take you back in time and you have the luxury of deciding whether you relax at our picturesque location or immerse yourself in the many guided adventure trips available.

Our lodge and cabins are offered to guests ranging from $135 to $500 per night, based on the accommodations and week you choose for your vacation. Many vacation rentals have set packages that combine lodging and other activities, but we felt it is best to provide accommodations only with the resources to connect you to guided trips so YOU plan your own itinerary. This Alaskan homestead of a Lodge (Harmony ) , 3 cabins (Prosperity, Serenity & Tranquility) is the perfect place for a family or friends gathering, as we can accommodate up to 15 people if you rent the entire acre homestead.

River fishing is possible, however requires waders to access the main river channel and the walk down to the river is by metal steps that drops 100' from the "Bluff" that overlooks the River. We are on the south side of the Kenai River off of Funny River Road, across from Bing’s Landing and a portion of the river called “the Rapids”. There are two other public access river fishing spots on our side of the Kenai River, as well as, the public access spots in Soldotna, near the Kenai Bridge (about 15 minutes from us) and you can do a search on local public fishing to see exact locations. Because of our “south side” location, we are about an hour drive to the Sterling and Russian River locations. Even though we are fairly successful fishing on our own, we are a big proponent of using guides to assure the best fishing results. The local guides know exactly where the fish are each day and our main web site (provided upon booking) lists experienced guides that you can consider to enhance your fishing experience.
All fish must be taken to a local fish processor in Soldotna but fish caught on property can be cleaned at shoreline and double bagged in your refrigerator until next trip in town to the local fish processor.


For those with an adventurous spirit, get ready to enjoy the many activities the area has to offer by simply exploring the resources we have provided on this website. Reserve our Lodge or one of our three Cabins and then start planning your vacation that you arrange directly with guide & charter companies making your selections based on your budget and desire for adventure. Some of the adventures available include guided fishing trips down the Kenai River, a fly out to Wolverine Creek and a Glacier, or a deep sea charter from Homer and Seward, hiking or horseback riding along some of the most stunning trails, clam digging along Cook’s Inlet, ATV trips, day cruises, whale and bear viewing, kayaking and canoeing, and local quaint town shopping. The Kenai Peninsula is nicknamed “Alaska’s Playground” for a reason, so book your trip and get ready to play in one of the most beautiful places on the planet.

If you prefer a relaxing vacation, you will be treated to our spectacular views of the Kenai River and Kenai Mountains as the sun rises and sets. If you want to reach your fish limit each day it is best either bring your own gear and venture out to the many available fishing spots or plan guided fishing trips and let the professionals help you. End your day with the sun setting and relaxing in our wood burning sauna or build a camp fire in the community fire ring and roast marshmallows. If you desire to grill a meal, we have a charcoal grill near the picnic table. You can wind down the evenings within your private accommodations or you can socialize with other guests on our community deck. The acre grounds are lush with trees, bushes and flowers, all overlooking the Kenai River and Mountains.

You cannot beat the Kenai Peninsula and River area for wildlife viewing as our Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge and Cabins is aptly named, with eagles commonly seen all along the river. Our lodge and cabins in Soldotna is less than a 2 hour drive to either the towns of Seward or Homer. We are a 3.5 hour scenic highway drive from Anchorage Airport (ANC) and less than an hour from the Kenai Airport. Day trips to towns of Homer, Seward, and Kenai will give you a chance to experience the diversity of Alaska and the Kenai Peninsula. Heading to Seward you will travel north from the Kenai river valley through flat wetlands with scrub spruce to the mountains with stands of Sitka Spruce forest and clear mountain lakes passing by Exit Glacier to Seward with all its beauty of Resurrection Bay. You may decide to head south on another day along the coastline of Cook Inlet to Kachemak Bay and Homer where you will be treated on a clear day the majestic views of the Aleutian mountain range and Mount Redoubt. These two drive trips are an adventure in themselves with panoramic views of volcanoes across the inlet and wildlife viewing opportunities of bears, moose, caribou and an array of birds.

For the fisherman at heart, the Kenai River has five species of Salmon with the Kings (Chinook) using it for their spawning grounds. Along with the Kings are the Silver Salmon (Coho), Sockeye Salmon (Red), Pink Salmon (Humpback), Chum Salmon (Dog), Dolly Varden and world class Rainbow Trout. The coastal waters off the Kenai Peninsula are home to Halibut, Lingcod and Rockfish, so be sure to plan for a day on a charter either out of Seward or Homer. Our area lakes are stocked annual and surround the Soldotna area.

While visiting the lovely town of Soldotna stop by the Soldotna Visitor Center for more information and to view a variety of animal exhibits on display, including the world record King Salmon, caught by Les Anderson in 1985 or take a walk along the Kenai River on the elevated boardwalk. We welcome you to Soldotna, Alaska and hope you will come stay with us and experience the Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge and Cabins in Soldotna, Alaska.

Beautiful home right of the Kenai river
The homeowners were so great to work with. We had a last minute booking due to an issue with a previous reservation and the homeowners were so accommodating. The house was very nice and they have a trail down to the Kenai River which was very cool (if only there were no mosquitoes in Alaska). The location was very central to other towns we were visiting in the Kenai peninsula which made it easy. A great place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Marc Walch

Host profile image
We are the Walch and Marcantonio family from Florida…who decided that we wanted to enjoy the “Alaskan Last Frontier” more than one week a year, so we went on a search for the perfect property. After 10 years of working with a local Realtor we found Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge and Cabins and purchased it in late summer 2015 and adjacent property in 2018. We bring over 30 years of experience of owning and operating vacation rental properties in Florida, North Carolina and even Roatan Honduras.

We wanted to offer “accommodations only” because over the years some of our party didn’t want the full fish package but we always found it hard to find a place that didn’t still require a package rate for each person. You can simply rent the Main Lodge, a Cabin or the whole homestead for your party at one price and then you decide how many of your group wants to join you on your fishing or wildlife adventures while here.

When we arrived at the homestead, we were immediately overwhelmed by sheer nature… with all the beauty of the grounds, river and mountains. If you are looking for a unique property “that isn’t cookie cutter” then come spend some time at the Kenai River Soaring Eagle Lodge and Cabins and rejuvenate your nature spirit.

Why they chose this property
