This is a very private 2700 sq ft waterfront home on the Kenai River at the end of the road in Cooper Landing, Alaska. We have 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. We are located on the low-bank side of the river just below the Kenai River Princess Lodge, just up stream from the Upper Kenai River rapids. Our 400 yd. long gravel bar is a favorite stop for most of the guides for Trout.
The king sized master bedroom has a private bath, sitting area, balcony and a spectacular mountain view. The two Queen sized bedrooms have beautiful river views. There is a bunk room down stairs as well as two futon doubles in the upstairs game room. There is a full sized washer and dryer. The granite kitchen offers full sized appliances and is fully equipped to make your gourmet fish dinners, lunches and breakfast. We have a full sized freezer in the garage to keep all your fish and there is a cleaning table with water out by the rivers edge for fish cleaning. We provide a Food Saver vacuum packer, bring bags
Fishing in the Area: There is a wealth of things to do in the area. Fishing is probably #1 and fly fishing for Rainbow out back is great and there are a wealth of guides for all types of float trips down the river. The Russian River confluence is about 10 min. away for great Salmon fishing. Beautiful Seward is 45 to 50 min. away for great salt water charters for Halibut, Ling Cod, Rock fish and Silver Salmon. Kenai Lake & Skelack Lake offers some big Lake Trout and there are a great number of smaller lakes in the area. The Kenai River offers all 5 species of Salmon along with world record Rainbow trout and Dolly Varden. Local Guides for all of the above are available. The lower river has some of the best King Salmon fishing in the world and I believe we still hold the world record for Kings.
Other Activities: World class hiking trails are numerous in the immediate area along with very gentle easy hikes like the trail to the Russian River Falls for bear viewing. Wild life and bird viewing abound even in the back yard at times. Glacier and whale viewing tours from Seward are fantastic and make a great day trip. Mountain biking, horse back riding , and kayaking are available locally.
