Nice cabin. Good location in Sterling

The cabin was well supplied and with 2 bedrooms and the loft could have held more people than just my husband and me. Max communicated with us very well during the booking process and before our stay. Just 15 minutes from Soldotna and close to our son’s house, it was a perfect location for us. We recommend it.

Great Location to explore the Kenai peninsula.

This cabin's location in Sterling is great, because it is really easy to take "day trips" to anywhere on the Kenai peninsula. We took day trips to Homer, Seward, and Cooper landing. Our VRBO Host, Max, was available and responsive via cell phone.

The Cabin was decent. We were there when it was a little chilly. The refrigerator stopped working when we were there and the oven is very slow. Overall you got what you paid for.

Not What It Seems

We were surprised to discover that the cute, rustic cabin we had rented had no hot water. There was a hot water heater outside the cabin that was not hooked up. The cabin is located at the edge of a pond that was teeming with mosquitos. We were told to make sure the cabin door stayed closed to keep out the mosquitos. In addition, and very disconcertingly, we discovered that the electricity to the cabin consisted of several extension cords dropped from various points into different rooms. We were afraid to stay at the property for fear use of the electricity would start a fire. I talked with the very kind manager/staff member who said that they would give me a full refund. She was very helpful, checking to see if another place had vacancies. The other place featured actual log built cabins with hot water and properly installed electricity. We enjoyed the second property and wished we had known about it sooner.

Power out more then on!

When we booked this cabin for 8 of us all the pictures were not included correctly, it was much smaller then the pictures showed then we realized they put all the pictures for both cabins they have on the same booking site! Beware the power was off more then it was on! They had lots of generator issues and when it did come on would barely run the fridge and lights always were dim..our fish never froze very upsetting but they didn't seem to care just said we are working on it! Had to get coolers & lots of ice for our fish.there is some outside freezer space gor a cost but again the power goes out regularly !! VERY Concerning there was live exposed high voltage wires on the side of the cabin we satyed in ..in a open box very unsafe.. No smoke detectors in the cabin and the heating sourse was plugged in heat runners not safe & the little propane stove shown in the pictures doesn't work Max informed us when we checked in!! Very sketchy how this place operates especially the power problem very concerning.. But we loved Alaska

Right for the price.

Fished all day and just hung out at the cabin. Cabin was comfortable and clean. Laundry was very clean. There are several long time campers who were very friendly and helpful. Only recommendation would be to fix the leaking faucet in kitchen and shower. Thanks for the stay max

Campground location

The cabin was clean , WiFi was “iffy” sometimes you had it and sometimes not, which meant sometimes the TV worked and sometimes not 🙁. Very few kitchen amenities - making it hard to prep a meal. Would have been nice to know this cabin was located at a campground. Shirley was very nice and did her best to accommodate!

Kylie cabin

Overall, I would not recommend for a family. The toilet seat seemed to be 20 years old,looked very dirty. The bathtub and bathroom sink needs to be fixed because water will not go down right away. Nails sticking out from various sides of the stairs. Ahead of time I asked the owner that we would exceed the amout of people that i booked for, not once responded that he was okay exceeding the number of booked guests. So we assumed he was ok with it,only to find out when we got there that we needed to pay an additional $400 plus for exceeding guest limit. Vrbo site said nothing about paying for additional people nor did the owner. And apparently,if you book through Vrbo,they have a different policy from the actual owner's policy. We over paid on the cabin and was not worth it at all.

Nice but needs updates

The check in was super easy. Cabin was ready when we got there. The cabin is older and in need of some repairs and updates. But we felt safe and above all the place was clean. Towels were musty, but plenty of them and soap and shampoo. Internet was easy to access and good signal. Biggest hang up other than the needed updates and repairs was the lack of coffee maker. There were filters and cups but no machine. Kinda a tease. Lol

Disappointment

This was the cabin we were to stay in, BUT apparently it had water problems and we were placed in a different building. The unit appeared to us to be an construction trailer, that was remodeled. It was clean, had the 2 bedrooms we had request. Our main concern was that there were no keys to lock the doors. We had text the host to explain, she said keys were on the hook. There was a key ring, but no keys. We went to the office in the morning, but no one was there.. We had talked with a gentleman at the campground, Daniel, and he gave us a padlock off his storage shed. We did not hear from or see the host about the locks. We were looking for a cabin setting, and were placed in a trailer, with views of a doublewide trailer and piles of junk. We believe Daniel was maybe a handyman for the campground. He was very helpful, from taking care of the lock problem to directions and ideas for our site seeing. He was a life saver. The whole experience would have worse if not for Daniel. We feel there should be some type of reimbursement for our inconvenience. We would like to pass on this is a campground for fisherman, and not really for couples.

About the host

We have built Alaska Canoe over the past 26 years into the go to place for everything Alaska. My mission statement and Goals are all about making certain you get what you want from your Alaska Vacation. I have been able to do so many things living here, seeing and doing all things Alaska. I appreciate good guests that appreciate Alaska. Looking forward to meeting you on your visit here to the Great land.

Why they chose this property

This property was raw land in 1990 and with the help of a chain saw and lots of hard work, we are still going today. Growing our business and providing great places for our guests to stay in. I picked this place because it was Right in the middle of the Kenai peninsula where I am in striking distance in a few hours all places on the kenai. from Whale watching and fishing for silver salmon in resurection bay out of Seward, or being in the town of Homer on the other sided of the peninsula chasing after Halibut. Just one mile from our property is the beautiful Kenai river , that features 4 different types of salmon running at different times thru our long alaska day summers. This is a great location and I just love living here in Sterling Alaska . thank you so much for the chance to share. Max Finch

What makes this property unique

I built my log home on the property in 1992. I cut down and milled my own lumber for this cabin that I live in. and although not the largest structure, its my home and I enjoy it every day. I am within 10 minutes of town and that makes it nice.
