Alaska Kenai River Cabin Rental

Welcome to our Alaska Kenai River cabin, which we call the Bear's Den. It offers upscale lodging, with 2 bedrooms, and sleeps up to 4 people. Rates for lodging and shore fishing vary by date and are on a per person per night basis. Unregistered guests are not permitted to stay overnight or fish from our world class waterfront. Please contact us if you have questions.

You can prepare your meals in the fully equipped kitchen or cook your salmon on the cabin BBQ. After catching your salmon from our private shoreline or elsewhere, you can sit around your cabin's fire pit or the waterfront fire pit and tell fish stories.

Our premier rental cabins (we only have 2 rental cabins) sit on 5 acres of private waterfront with over 350 ft. of incredible salmon shore fishing. Our upscale vacation cabin is available for your use whether you are coming to the Kenai River for phenomenal fishing, wildlife viewing, as an executive retreat or a good old fashioned family sightseeing vacation.

Located on the banks of the famous Kenai River in Sterling, Alaska, on the Kenai Peninsula which is a short (2.5 hour) drive from Anchorage along beautiful Cook Inlet and through scenic mountains to the heart of Kenai Peninsula's outdoor attractions.

Our lodging and fishing package rates include fishing rods, reels and all necessary gear.

Nice place

We checked in without any problems. The accommodations in the cabin could stand an upgrade. The cabin needs some blinds or shutters, there is no privacy in the front part of the cabin. The couch, TV, and bed was not up to par. The TV was about the size of a computer screen and could have been a bit larger. The couch was not comfortable and neither was the bed in the main bedroom, for the price we paid for the cabin we thought the accommodations where not nice enough. The location and proximity to river is really nice and it is very peaceful and natural.

Great Kenai River Cabin in Sterling

The location of the cabins is perfect for fishing the middle Kenai River. The Bear Den cabin is very cozy and comfortable. Richard is a great host and was more disappointed than we were that the river had flooded with due to heavy rains making fishing more difficult during our stay. We still had an awesome time and caught plenty of fish. Richard also showed us the larger cabin which is equally as comfortable and would accommodate larger families or groups. We are looking forward to and already planning our next stay.
