Kenai River Lodge A Great Place To Fish

By Tracie Knight


When looking for beauty in small town America, traveling to Alaska can offer a one of a kind experience. The Kenai River Lodge, located 75 miles from the nearest major airport, is a great inn under new management. Since 2012, the new owners have treated every guest as family and offer a personal touch not found at chains or other local establishments.

Great features abound for the bank fisherman at this fishing centered location. From a four hundred bank private fishing area to the cleanest cleaning areas, it is great for anyone desiring to fish and clean a catch on the spot. Whether traveling with children or otherwise, individuals will love the walkways and stairs which lead down to the water for great shallow water wading.

For those wishing to store a catch and cook out, two large freezers are available on a first come first serve basis. There is also a bar-b-q pit available weather permitting. Travelers may also want to check out different eating options in the area as recommended by owners and staff.

Everyone visiting the lodge will enjoy having a variety of choice in room types. Each has a view, some overlooking the river and others with a side view or view of the property. All rooms are clean and well stocked. As there are three levels to the hotel, those with health issues may want to inquire about the location of a specific room when making a reservation.

A microwave, mini-fridge and coffee maker can be found in all rooms. Suites offer a full fridge, table and other amenities not found in the smaller ones. Each suite has a name with Suite 201 being the largest. This suite offers two living rooms, two bedrooms and a pull out couch in each room. It also offers a full size kitchen, fridge and dinette. The Crows Nest is the next size down and offers a queen bed and four twins, great for a family or small group desiring to stay in the same room.

Whether traveling as a couple or alone, Suite 100 can offer more room to spread out with a queen bed and separate sitting area. This suite also includes a full size fridge and dining table to accommodate guests for longer stays. As with smaller rooms, it also includes a coffee maker and microwave.

The new owners take great pride in offering the cleanest rooms in the area. Each guest is treated with dignity and respect as the owners want every guest to leave happily satisfied. Problems are often few and far between as the owners maintain the property on a daily basis. If a guest has a problem, it is attended to immediately and resolved as quickly as possible.

If looking for a safe, fun and successful fishing experience, guests can not beat this great location. The area is renowned for the best fishing in the region. Catches are often frequent with great results. This great river lodge has everything fish oriented travelers could ask for in a great place to stay, fish, wade, clean, and some of the best accommodations and scenery for picture taking with clean rooms, great attitudes and a bar-b-q pit for use during the best of seasons.
