Soldotna getaway

We had a wedding to attend in Soldotna and needed a place for 4 couples. This house was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was excellent and the house was beautiful. I highly recommend this property for anyone staying in the Soldotna area. Thanks Brian Ardolf.

Amazing property

This property was amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. Bathrooms seemed very recently remodeled. Very spacious inside and out. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. The only drawback was the number of cameras surrounding the property that were on during our entire stay. Highly recommend!

More than you could imagine

The pictures and other reviews do not do this place justice. Everything about it was amazing. It is warm and inviting. We had 10 people staying there and it was never crowded. There is every possible kitchen amenity you could need. Beds are comfortable and the bathrooms are all beautiful. The bedrooms are spacious with so much storage space. There is plenty of seating inside and out. The location is seemingly remote but it’s a very short drive to town. It is just perfect. The view is icing on the cake. I would recommend this place to everyone I know and we certainly hope to return someday.

Imasaka Family Reunion

Awesome rental with all sorts of family friendly activities. Outdoor fire pit, bbq grill, lanai with seating to view the Kenai river, indoor fireplace, pool table, etc. that kept my entire family busy for our weeklong stay. To top it off, we had a hot run of Kenai reds and Homer halibuts. Couldn’t ask for more and will definitely return again.

Kansas wedding

Our Daughter got married in Soldotna and our immediate family all stayed together in this amazing house. There was room to relax and enjoy each other, especially the access to the Kenai River. the view from the kitchen window is amazing. If you have a big group, this is a great place to be. You would actually never have to leave it!

Alaska family vacation

The house is actually nicer than the pictures. It’s just outside Soldatna on a gravel road on the banks of the Kenai along with some other nice homes. Plenty of room for everybody. We were in between salmon runs so bank fishing was unsuccessful. So we primarily fished on the Russian river in Cooper Landing 50 minutes away. We caught so many quality rainbows that we lost count. It was truly epic.

Fourth Time Stay

As always, accommodations were wonderful. Our family greatly enjoyed the home, river and Soldotna area. Mike and Janine are wonderful people to work with. They take a lot of care in their home which shows in the additions they make to an already perfect place to vacation.

Amazing River Property

This place was absolutely amazing and everything we imagined and more. The communication beforehand was great as they answered every question clearly and quickly. The check in process was seamless and easy. But the property…. Was truly amazing. River views from everywhere, super clean and the house has tons of room. It had everything we could ever use. Oh and the fishing was amazing…. Careful of the one log under the middle of the dock that ate my red gear over and over again. You couldn’t do much better than this property. Second time staying on this street in the last two years. 5 stars and highly recommended.
