About this property

Ultimate Fishing Retreat at Our Riverfront Home in Cooper Landing, Alaska

Our private 2700 sq ft waterfront home is located at the end of the road in Cooper Landing, Alaska. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, it offers a spacious and comfortable retreat. Situated on the low-bank side of the river, just below the Kenai River Princess Lodge and upstream from the Upper Kenai River rapids, our location is ideal for fishing enthusiasts. Our 400 yd. long gravel bar, a favorite spot for guides targeting Rainbow Trout, is easily accessible for wading.

The master bedroom boasts a king-sized bed, a luxurious private bath, a sitting area, a balcony, and stunning mountain views. Both queen-sized bedrooms offer beautiful river views. Downstairs, there is a bunk room, and the upstairs game room features two double-sized futons. A full-sized washer and dryer are available for your convenience. The granite kitchen is equipped with full-sized appliances and everything you need to prepare gourmet meals. Additionally, we provide a full-sized freezer in the garage for storing your catch, and a fish cleaning table with water is conveniently located by the riverside. We even offer a Food Saver vacuum packer—just bring your bags.

For bug-free outdoor dining, we have a screened-in gazebo with a table and chairs, and there's also a picnic table by the river. With the Kenai-Russian River confluence just minutes away and excellent fishing right in your own private backyard, you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Furthermore, our house is perfectly positioned for day trips to the surrounding towns of Homer, Seward, Hope, Kenai, and Soldotna, allowing you to explore the area and discover even more attractions and activities.

Might be the best place on the Kenai (Don't tell your friends)

I am hesitant to share how awesome this place is because I want to keep it to myself. It couldn't have been more perfect for our family of 6. Mike did an amazing job making sure we were welcomed and had everything we needed.

Family trip to celebrate our 40 year wedding anniversary and my 60th birthday

Everyone loved the house and the fishing access. Michael and Breezie were so easy to work with. They gave us fishing information and shared tips about what to use and where to go on the river. We also stayed in Homer, Palmer and Anchorage but everyone agreed the Cooper Landing house was the best!

Perfect For Us!

From booking to arrival to departure the adventure was awesome! The home was a perfect for the 6 adults and one 17 yr old to celebrate anniversaries by fishing for Reds and Silvers on the Russian And Kenai Rivers. We ventured out to Solditna and Homer as well and the home location was perfectly placed to allow easy trips. Loved all the appliances and staples stocked and utilized the garage to on and offload all fishing gear. Our family even talked about renting on a yearly basis because of all the attributes as well as the great communication with Michael (location property manager)! Highly recommended!! Just don’t take our dates in the future!

Fantastic getaway!

This is truly a beautiful property. The house is well equipped with everything from cooking and eating utensils to fishing gear. The hosts were especially accommodating. When we found our motel closed up for Covid protocols, they saved us from the streets of Anchorage by allowing us to start our stay a night early for which we wiIll be forever thankful. Cooper's Landing is a spectacular place and a great gathering place for friends and family. We couldn't have picked a better location.

Did not want to leave!

My family and I had an amazing stay during our trip. The gorgeous Kenai River is only steps away as soon as you head out to the backyard. Lots of space, clean, and comfortable. They even had fishing rods ready to go for us! The beauty of Cooperlanding felt like a dream. We would love to stay at this cabin again!

Perfect Location

We really enjoyed staying here right on the river! We felt we had privacy even though there are neighbors because of the size of the property. Each day we had outings planned to Homer, Seward, Whittier, and Anchorage to see all the beautiful sights! The owners were very helpful sending us tips and recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Thanks for being such great hosts, Rick and Karol!

All the comforts of home

I absolutely loved this home. Steps away form the Kenai River on the highway to Homer it is roomy, and comfortably furnished with everything you need to enjoy exploring the wondrous beauties of the Kenai Peninsula. There are restaurants nearby and numerous opportunities to get away from civilization and explore the wilds of the Peninsula. We went hiking up the Harding Ice Field Trail and also to the Russian River where we thoroughly enjoyed watching the salmon climb up the falls. Rick and his wife are excellent to work with and their team on the ground was great. They gave excellent directions, were accessible for questions, and made good recommendations when we were thinking through choices. I will note that it is not as secluded as I expected. It is not like a Philadelphia suburb, but there were other homes nearby, which I had not expected. Even with that, this is an outstanding place to stay and I highly recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Michael & Breezie

Host profile image
I am just an old goat that loves the Lord, loves my wife and loves to fish. We 1st came to AK in 1995 for vacation and fell in love with the Kenai River and Cooper Landing. Unable to find property in Cooper Landing we bought and built our retirement home on the River in Sterling about 30 minutes south of here. In June of 2007 we found this magnificent place and could not pass it up. Still in Texas working and enjoying part of the summer fishing up here, all we need now is to figure out how to retire.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house in Cooper Landing because the views are spectacular, the fishing is fantastic and the wildlife/bird viewing is great. The location makes it the ideal location to access the entire Kenai Peninsula. The residents of Cooper Landing are some of the friendliest people we have encountered and are always willing to lend a hand and teach someone how to catch the fish of their dreams.

What makes this property unique

We have some of the best tasting pure spring water on the planet. Our spring was the water supply for Cooper Landing for many years. Pipped straight into the house it is fantastic. We are only 15 minutes from the world famous Kenai-Russian River confluence. There are numerous rafting companies within 5 miles of the house and guide services as well. We are only 50 min from Seward and 2 hrs from Anchorage. There are many hiking trails within minutes of the house as well. The Russian River Falls is an easy hike for bear viewing. Golf is only 45 minutes away in Soldotna.
