About this property

JBs Alaska Getaway Beautiful Custom Log home for your Alaskan experience 2b/2b

This gorgeous log home is the result of a 15 year dream of a custom home builder. It's beauty is reflected in the details, from a custom bar foot rest featuring iron salmon, to a glass door arctic entry, hand carved oak leaf and acorn cupboard pulls, to solid hickory flooring and use of antler accent décor throughout. This house is truly a one of a kind for an Alaskan getaway! JBs Alaska Getaway

The location is perfectly situated just a few minutes from the Kenai river, a few minutes from the Cook inlet, five minutes from both Soldotna and Kenai. You can easily do day trips to Seward (1 hour 45 minutes) and Homer (1 hour 30 minutes). Soldotna and Kenai have everything you would need from grocery stores, Walmart, Fred Meyer, fun bakeries, shopping, medical care, restaurants, breweries and even a winery nearby.

This home features 2 bedrooms, the Master has a queen size sleep number bed, with a private bathroom with both a bathtub and a multi jet shower. The second bedroom is a queen bed with a private bathroom with a shower.

The sitting room is cozy with soft leather seating, and a gorgeous iron gas fireplace to take the chill off the morning or evening!

The custom bar with beautiful pendant lighting seats 8. The well stocked kitchen has beautiful stainless appliances, including a dishwasher, refrigerator, and commercial oven. Butcher block and granite counter tops give plenty of space for meal preparation.

A second Arctic entry (to be shared with the second house during pre-determined hours) has a washer, dryer and dvd library! In the attached garage you will find an extra chest freezer to freeze any prepackaged fish you may need to store until your departure.

Alaska vacation

This property was everything it stated it was on line and more! My first trip to Alaska and this VRBO was a beautiful home away from home. Perfect for 2 couples, great location, fantastic salmon fishing, delicious meals at restaurants our hosts recommended. My husband loved the fully equipped kitchen! We were there 3 nights and were sorry to leave this lovely home. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Unique and lovely

We had a great stay with another family in the guest house. The only thing missing was a dining area for all of us to eat at but there were some options outdoors. Everything was clean and the kitchen was very well appointment. Beds were comfortable and hosts were very responsive.

The PERFECT place to stay in AK!

I can't even begin to tell you how perfect this home was for our stay in Kenai/Soldatna. The owners were so helpful even before we got there with their insight on what to do while in Alaska and also very detailed about the easy check-in process. We have rented VRBOs in the past and had mixed experiences with the place being as nice as the pictures so I can't tell you how overjoyed we were to walk in for the first time and the home was EVEN BETTER than imagined. The decor was clean yet cozy and the space is so bright yet warm at the same time. We found the beds very comfortable and good window shades, since it doesn't get dark in the summer :). The bathrooms were very clean and the showers were also spotless. We LOVED the gourmet kitchen which was perfect for cooking dinners and we enjoyed a wonderful sausage and egg breakfast in the morning. The are beautiful sitting areas outside where we enjoyed coffee in the mornings and wine at night, hoping to see a mouse. Then we DID! It was so cool. He just came right up and layed down. This completed our Alaska experience perfectly! I can't say enough about this wonderful home and how great Becky was. They literally thought of every need their guests could possibly want and delivered on it! I know we will be back and wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else!

Absolutely perfect!

A wonderfully done bit of Alaskana. The kitchen is huge, complete with a high-end range. The living room is very comfortable, and the gas fireplace makes gives it that snug feeling in a hurry. Hot water on demand, so you never have to worry about running out. The decor is tasteful without kitsch. The owners were always available, and were concerned about our satisfaction. Always a bonus in a host, especially when they do not live on site. We loved it, and are looking forward to staying again next year. Thanks for an awesome experience!

Clean, Beautiful and Homey

The home is clean and beautiful. Such wonderful personal touches to every inch of this cabin. The home was well stocked with all amenities needed from washer/dryer to a blender for making smoothies. Jerry and Becky the owners where very friendly and quick to respond to any questions or problems that arose during our stay. The location is very convenient, only a few minutes to access needed groceries or any area in town but also out enough so that you do feel like you are in the wilderness, the heart of Alaska. Perfect! Thank you

About the host

Hosted by Jerry and Becky Peters

Host profile image
We visited Alaska in 2001 and fell in love. We talked and dreamed about owning our dream home there one day. We made more trips, and continued to "dream" about "someday". In 2018 we decided it was time. We traveled from our home in Southern California, and found our dream home in Soldotna , Alaska. We think you will agree after staying there that this place is unique and so very beautiful . We plan to retire there in a few years, but for now, we want to share it with others. We hope you enjoy.

Why they chose this property

We dreamed of owning a Log home some day. The moment we stepped into the property, we knew "this is the one". The previous owner was a custom builder who spent 15 years building his "dream" home. He spent hundreds of hours hand carving the pieces you see on the property, implementing antlers, and unique Alaskan details in all that he did. He built and carved the pieces you see on the property, including the oak leaf and acorn cupboard pulls, antler door pulls, the benches and even the carvings outside. He spared no expense or ignored no detail. It is truly a piece of "Art".

What makes this property unique

Not only is this a beautiful place, but it is a wonderful location. Centrally located of "K-beach", the road that takes you to Kenai, Soldotna, and Homer. You are just minutes away from the Kenai River and the Cook Inlet for world class fishing. Homer and Seward are a beautiful 1 hour and 45 minute drive away. Moose frequent the property, and in spring, momma moose often come to the property behind the house to have their babies.
