We had a great time at Hannele’s place. It’s well stocked, comfortable, and the area and lake is super peaceful. The kids enjoyed the game shed, playing in the yard, swimming and paddling from the dock. The area is great for access to fishing. We heard loons every day and saw a moose. Awesome experience!

We had a wonderful time here. Hannele was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The house was very clean, with lots of attention to detail. Lovely welcome snack, full kitchen with coffee, monogrammed towels so everyone knows which one is theirs to use. Would definitely come back. Thank you!!!

Will Lake Lodge is the perfect getaway for a family! The lodge itself is a quaint, the street and lake are quiet. Having direct lake access is a hot commodity. The hosts were amazing an incredibly responsive!

This lake house was precisely what we wanted - a secluded and quiet stay next to natural beauty in a clean and super well appointed house. Everything about the house was so organized and logical. It was very clean too! The house itself is at the end of a dirt road overlooking a lake. We didn't see anyone for the entire time we were there, exactly what we wanted. The kids enjoyed the game house and we even took a row out on the lake. The best part is that I asked our host before we left if they happened to have Rummikub because our family has been addicated to playing - and she bought a set for the house! So all in all a perfect stay. I highly recommend Hannele's place and if we ever find ourselves in Kenai again, would definitely return.

The Lake house was everything it was promised to be. No issues with getting there or checking in. Plenty of things to do and view of the lake was outstanding. Did see a lot of wildlife even a moose wandered by. Would recommend this property for a relaxing get away for yourself and family. Thanks.

We needed a getaway for a few days and boy are we glad we booked this property. Quiet, clean, convenient to amenities and activities while still being private. The hosts provide everything you could ever need! We have been all over Alaska and this house is at the top of our list. There were 2 adults, 2 teens, and 2 dogs in our group, and we were very comfortable. The kids loved being able to swim off the dock, the activity room, and how close we were to Capt. Cook Rec Area. The hosts were immediate in their responses, but we really did not need anything! We will definitely book again!

We had a great time at this house! The house has a great lake view and the kids loved the games in the outhouse. This was a perfect place to unwind between all the Kenai excursions. We had fun using the boat, canoe and paddle board. The outdoor area was great for BBQ and building fires in the evenings. I would definelty recommend this property - we were sad to leave!
