Terrific place to stay. Chris was very responsive, check-in was a breeze, and the cabin is actually nicer than it appears in the photos.
Pros: Quiet, Wireless internet was very fast and capable of supporting browsing/text/VOIP, gas grill on back deck looks brand new and worked flawlessly, upstairs bed was very comfortable (not too soft). Water pressure was amazing and the tankless water heater means unlimited hot water...you aren't working off some tiny tank. The front-loading washer/dryer were awesome to have also as being able to do laundry at home is a huge plus. Conveniently located in the full bathroom downstairs off the kitchen.
Cons, as other people might look at them, there was no functional TV service at all. Not a single channel worked. Not a problem for us as we don't watch TV at home and didn't plan to on our trip. The cabin is a few miles from Soldotna but we saw quite a few moose on the neighborhood roads to the cabin every couple days including a cow with her calf. (She was wearing an orange radio collar). The drive also takes you past the waste transfer site where you can drop off your trash/recycling. The kitchen probably isn't what a chef is looking for though there is a drip coffeemaker, Keurig, toaster, microwave, gas range and oven. The basic stuff is there (we left a pizza cutter and a sharp chef's knife) so making meals is easy. The upstairs loft area needs some blackout shades on the end window as it was sometimes difficult to sleep with the endless daylight during our trip.
This cabin's location is convenient to everything on the Kenai Peninsula. Took about 3 hours to drive to the cabin from Anchorage but from here it's about 20 minutes to the town of Soldotna (Fred Meyer grocery store, gas stations, Sportsman's Warehouse), and just a little further to the Wal-Mart in Kenai.
We made the two hour drive to Seward a few times, drove to Homer (well, Ninilchik Beach), fished the Kenai and Kasilof Rivers as well as a couple local stocked lakes. Check out Johnson Lake for some outstanding rainbow action on a rooster tail.
Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. My only 'dream' improvements would be a hot tub and a chest freezer/fish cleaning table available for guests.
