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 $150 to $600 (plus 3% tax) 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 20 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.
