We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay! It was perfect, it was clean, spacious, comfortable and even better than advertised! Kevin was an awesome host, great communication! It felt like home! We plan to return next year!

We absolutely loved our stay at this property. Kevin was a great host and had terrific communication with us. The house was so roomy and so cozy. We enjoyed hanging out on the deck and near the river. We were close to restaurants, grocery stores and breweries. Great for families and we would love to stay here again!

What a wonderful stay our family party of six had at the Fraley’s home on the Kenai River. The home has a spacious, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, a spacious family room, and large deck, with several areas to sit and enjoy the river view. We enjoyed the propane heater on the deck and the large, gas grill. The house is well-situated in a quiet neighborhood in Soldotna with easy access to stores and highways. Our fishermen enjoyed fishing for salmon for the first time. They are skilled fishermen in the Midwest, but fishing for salmon was a challenge, if you follow the fishing regulations on limits and snagging fish. The dock area by the Kenai River is as described, including excellent railings up the steps from the river, but be aware that there are sixty, steep steps from the dock to the house. The kitchen and two main bedrooms and family room are all on one level which was very convenient for us. However, the main level is only accessible via the deck or through the downstairs level. This was difficult for one of our older family members. Kevin communicated so well with us. He called us before our stay to make sure we understood how to get there and answered any questions we had about the home. Since we were arriving late into the evening, he even made sure that outside lights were left on, so we could locate the house easily. We appreciated the helpful hints and expectations he left in a binder at the house. No wonder the house is in such excellent shape. We appreciate the care that the Fraleys take to maintain such a gem on the Kenai!

This is by far one of the best VRBO rentals we have stayed at in the last several years. Immaculately clean and every area was stocked well with all necessary items. The location on the river was perfect with amazing views. I would highly recommend staying at this location. Communication with the owner was easy and fast.

We had a wonderful time at this great home in a beautiful setting! Very well stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes, utensils, pots, etc for lots of cooking! Very comfortable beds! Beautiful deck for morning coffee and evening happy hour! We hope to stay again in the future! Thanks so much for sharing your home!

The house was perfect for a family get together of 11. The house fit our every need. It was so beautiful to sit at the kitchen table and look out onto the river. The outside porch was great as well. We enjoyed the fire pit and the owners were so nice and helpful. We definitely recommend this house! Outstanding!!

We were there for 3 nights right on the bank of the Kenai River in Soldotna. The town center was 5 minutes away. The VRBO was a great experience on its own. We had a wonderful time.

This place was amazing, the house had everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was far better stocked then most, it was very homey and comfortable. Lot's of inside space and the deck is just amazing, so many places to get comfortable and relax. And of course right on the beautiful Kenai, we really couldn't have asked for more!!

The house is very big and comfortable. It is in a residential area so you do have to drive to food, grocery etc. The outdoor deck area is beautiful and we did grill and enjoy our evenings. We were hoping to fish off the dock and purchased equipment in town but it was not a good time for fishing. We did see eagles on the river. We drove one hour to Cooper's Landing for a float trip and 20 minutes to Kasilof for a salmon fishing trip (no salmon yet). Overall the house was well stocked and the owners were very easy to communicate with.

We got married here June 2021. The property is spacious, clean, beautiful, and the deck is a wonderful place for the family to hang out. Very nice view of the Kenia offered a great backdrop for our outdoor wedding on the deck. The owners are very easy to work with and accommodating.

House was perfect for our group. Plenty of room to roam with a wonderful view. Will use again.

Excellent property. Would stay again

Our family enjoyed a wonderful week on the Kenai River in this awesome home. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable. We loved the extra master suite. The teens downstairs said this was the best vacation house ever! We were able to fish right off the dock till almost midnight, with plenty of freezer space to store all that we caught. We were right down the street from the grocery store and hardware/fishing supply store, yet we felt away from town and into the natural beauty. We would definitely recommend this beautiful home to anyone, and Jill and Kevin were great hosts.

We were a group of five fishermen from the Midwest, and we had a great week even in the middle of the pandemic. We had our groceries delivered via Instacart, and left the house very little. The most convenient place to get firewood is Centennial Park, which is a nearby campground that sells bundles for $6 each. The stairs leading down to the fishing platform are very handy and all of us, even the over 65 group, were able to negotiate the stairs to get to the river and back up again. The numbers of sockeye were a bit down this year from previous years but we were still able to catch a good amount of fish. The hosts were great, the WiFi was good, the river view was great from the spacious decks, and everything worked, and we had a very nice stay.

This is our 4th time to Soldotna / Kenai and we thoroughly enjoyed Kevin and Jill’s house over the Thanksgiving holiday! The location on the river was beautiful, it is convenient to town and everything you need is within a 5 minute drive — which was important to us in case of bad weather. The house was super clean and had lots of supplies (kitchen spices, comfortable beds, modern amenities, etc...). Kevin was very attentive to our questions/needs. Very good WiFi, lots of TV channels, and quality family time sitting around the large kitchen table playing cards and games. Thank you, Kevin and Jill! It couldn’t have been a better holiday in your home away from our home! We’ll be back! And sometime we’d like to return in the summer so that we can use that amazing deck!

Everything was perfect. Beautiful property with everything one could possibly need. So spacious, we didn't even use much of the home.

This property is a gem! Our annual fishing trip was interrupted by the Swan Lake Fire and were required to make some last minute changes to our regular plans. We were surprised to find this amazing property available on such short notice. The property location is breathtaking and the amazing back deck allows you to take in the gorgeous views day and night. The owners were very responsive to our initial request and we received great communication regarding the property particulars and their expectations during our stay. The house was extremely comfortable for our small group of 4 but could accommodate a much larger group for family gatherings. The cleanliness of the property was second to none. Should we ever need accommodations in the Soldotna/Kenai area in the future, this will be the place for us to stay!

Great.

This is a beautiful home. The views of the river from the house were stunning and the dock was beautiful to sit on and watch the river go by. All pictures are accurate and it is even more beautiful in person. I’d love to go back. We had a wonderful time and Kevin was very responsive to my call, texts and emails. Thank you!

Everything was just as advertised. We were completely impressed with the accommodations and the attention to detail the Fraley's put into this home. Great views and a wonderful experience. Thank you.

This property is beautiful. Highly recommend. Owners were more than accommodating.

All of us enjoyed this lovely, comfortable and clean home. The view from the deck was fabulous, the fishing was phenomenal, and the well stocked home was perfect. We had a memorable family vacation. Thank you!!
