Beautiful Alaska Vacation Home Steps from Kenai River (Lynx Cottage)
Our Kenai Riverside gem, the Lynx Cottage, offers deluxe accommodations just steps away from the stunning Kenai River - the perfect location for your Alaska vacation. Nestled on the banks of the turquoise-colored Kenai River, this tranquil setting is the perfect home away from home, conveniently located in the heart of the Kenai Peninsula. From your private “basecamp,” you can explore the local area by foot, raft or fishing boat - or venture on day trips to Seward and Homer before returning to your cozy home.
This two bedroom, one bath timber frame cottage is perfect for a family or two couples. The Cottage sleeps 4 to 6 with a sleeper sofa and fresh linens provided.
The main living space boasts large windows with excellent views of the property’s wooded, riverside location, along with a full kitchen set-up suitable for any home chef. Make the most of the spectacular natural setting located just outside the front door, with a charming porch and comfy outdoor seating.
Our Lynx Cottage is one of three beautiful vacation home rentals on the banks of the Kenai River. Reserve this individual cottage for yourself and your small family or consider renting multiple homes for larger parties up to 16-20 guests.
