About this property

Beautiful Log Cabin Retreat. Access Kenai River/Bings Landing State Park

Welcome to the world famous Kenai Peninsula. This beautiful log cabin with front porch and view of Redoubt Volcano is in the heart of the peninsula. Sleeps 7. 2 bedrooms plus loft. 2 bathrooms. WiFi. Very private setting. Lots of trees on lot. Lots of wildlife around area and property. Moose, bears and eagles frequent the area. Located at the end of a cul-de-sac - there is very little road traffic in the area. The Kenai River is across road. Access to the river is nearby at Bings Landing State Park (best fishing hole on the river) also known as the Naptowne Rapids. You can walk to the state park from the cabin. In this area you can fish for salmon and trout most of the summer. Lots of room to fish and within walking distance to the town of Sterling. Sterling is 10 miles north of Soldotna and 2.5 hours south of Anchorage. Sterling is the heart of the peninsula. Close to Kenai, Seward and Homer.

Seward and Homer have fishing and sightseeing charters. Seward is home to the famous Kenai Fjords National Park with boats to see sea wildlife and glaciers calving. You can also fish for salmon in Seward or visit the Alaska Sealife Center.

Homer is the halibut capital of the world. In Homer you can travel to the famous Homer spit for fish-n-chips or take a charter to catch monster halibut or take a water taxi to Halibut Cove or Seldovia for some sea kayaking.

This beautiful cabin has a gas fireplace, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, log beds and furniture. Barbecue and outdoor chairs to relax after a long day of fun. All linens supplied. Plenty of parking.

New upgraded queen beds and one new upgraded twin bed July 2019.

Secluded cabin in woody

Excellent spot to explore the Kenai Peninsula. Centrally located to Anchorage, Homer, and Seward, all of which have things to keep you busy during your stay. The cabin is on the edge of the Kenai River and spots to fish are all close by. If you are planning to salmon fish, we learned mid July to mid August is the time to come

Great place close to everything we needed. We would stay here again.

Only issue we had was we weren’t able to access the WiFi. Other than that it was a great location and place was clean.

Cozy Cabin

This cabin was very comfortable for the 4 of us. It was well stocked. The beds were comfortable. We arrived late and let Niki (neighbor and property mgr with her husband) know we had arrived. They sent over some eggs and bread for the next days breakfast which was very nice. We took a fishing excursion on the Kenai River. A lot of charters leave from Bing's Landing which is right down the road. We did a number of hikes and went to Homer for the day. Would recommend this cabin!

Incredible and comfortable.

We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The cabin was so clean and comfortable. It was very well stocked, and we really felt at home. So close to fishing, but also quiet and private. Will definitely stay here again next time we are in Alaska.

This property was full of supplies, well maintained and very close to the Kenai River...for those hoping to catch some Sockeye. We loved everything about this property. So, if planning an Alaska trip, book / reserve early, to find a great stay like this one. Thanks for everything.

This cabin was immaculately clean and was fully stocked with anything and everything we needed.

This cabin was just perfect for our stay. Centrally located on the Peninsula and such easy access to all towns and attractions in all directions. Immaculately clean and decorated. Private yet so close to amenities. Fully stocked kitchen and extra ice chests to use for day trips and fishing. A freezer to keep fish to take home. It was just perfect. Niki who takes care of the property was very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas and fishing places. Great WiFi and cell service. We will definitely stay here again.
