Had a great stay, Heather and Jon were fantastic with communication, before and during our stay, provided fishing tips and information. Beautiful location on the Kenai river, loved the firepit right by the water. Fishing experienced was a bit mixed, while there is plenty of water to try and fish, our best chances of fishing/catching salmon was limited to 1-2 spots at the top of the drift, not ideal for a group of 4. We did have to share this spot with nextdoor neighbors for half our trip but they were very friendly. Once they left, fishing really picked up and was a blast. Overall a great stay, close to public fishing spots, not too far from town, and felt secluded. Thank you for having our group!

The house on the River was wonderful, such a great quiet location right on the river. Perfect for our family to relax and unwind after a week of go go go traveling throughout Alaska. Close enough to a store for food and such, far enough away to be very quiet. Not many salmon running while we were there but looks like a good spot. Would 100% stay here again FYI from the pictures, the little point out into the river is the neighbors property and roped off, the shoreline for fishing at this house is right in front of the table and bench.

This 3 bedroom 1 bath home was extremely clean. The communication with the host, the check in and check out process was simple. The spot right on the river allowed for east fishing. There is a fire pit and folding chairs. Found 2 fishing poles in the back we used. This house has a huge deck and grill. We really appreciated the abundance of towels, washcloths, cleaning supplies, pots/pans, foil, sandwich bags, coffee filters and snacks. Even a surprise local wine upon arrival. Great location, the Three Bears Alaska was in walking distance and provided everything you may need. Full Grocery, Ace Hardware, gas station & liquor all with in 1 mile. Perfect location in Sterling, Alaska. We would come here again.

Incredibly beautiful and calming property. Very secluded. Our entire family loved it and Heather kept it well stocked with lot's of the nice extra things including a delicious welcome gift.It is much better than a cabin on a stream! One bathroom meant we had time our showers correctly but other than that it was a flawless and great experience. I would highly recommend this property to anyone and would stay there again in a heartbeat. Thanks Heather!!!

We had a great stay at this rental located right on the kenia river. The cabin is literally only about 50ish steps away from the river with a level bank. We were able to catch some salmon, but we believe our stay was just a few days late for the big run. Not bless, we had a great stay with everything we needed. Thank you Heather!

We loved our stay! The house had everything we needed and worked well for our family. The location - you can’t beat it! Right on the water, views out the window of eagles flying, each day we saw a Mamma moose and her baby. Easy to get to all our destinations in the Kenai area. Thank you!

Awesome location on the river - isolated enough to feel alone with nature, yet close to everything you may need. We very much enjoyed our stay. My favorite was morning coffee to the sound of the flowing river.

Cabin on the River
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin on the river. The location of the cabin worked great for us to be close to site seeing and shopping. Besides being able to fish at the property, we were able to fish some of the local fishing spots that were less than 30 minutes ‘drive from the cabin. Heather and her family were great host and we would book again. It was the perfect setting for our Alaska vacation. Highly recommend!!

Heather was a great host. The location can not be beat. 120’ from the Kenai. I caught a King Salmon and Reds. Very private location and easy to get anywhere. I’d stay here again.

GREAT FISHING CABIN
We have been coming from SC to AK to vacation and fish for the last 3 years. Each year we have stayed at different rental homes. This year we stayed at this cabin and we have found our new home away from home. It is roomy and comfortable. It is located riverside and has a great bank to fish from, and since the river level was a little down, we could safely get out on the rock levy. We use a fishing guide that we meet at Bing's Landing (which is only 5 minutes away!) so this cabin is very conveniently located near that dock. If we get to travel back to AK next year, we will definitely plan to schedule this home again! Thanks, Heather for offering this great cabin!

Perfect spot on the river
Imagine camping right on a beautiful spot on the river, except with a full kitchen, hot shower, and comfy beds.
In other words, what could be better? Launched our raft right from the yard and floated 15 miles or so on a beautiful sunny day. Didn't catch any fish but that's a reason to come back and try again! Heather was wonderful and easy to work with. There was no cheese grater in the kitchen, which we viewed as a bonus because when you shred your parmesan with a veggie peeler that makes it legit camping.
In short, highly recommend!

The house and location was fine. The fishing was bad but that is because there was not a lot of fish coming through this year at this time. That is not the fault of the owner. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, it is so close to the river you walk about 50 feet and you are right there.

Cozy House With Amazing River Access
I found this house through a listing on Craigslist. The house was comfortable and had great river access. The fishing cannot be beat! We will be back for sure.
