The house is gorgeous and has everything we needed for our stay. We had 8 people and were very comfortable. Lots of fishing near by and the hike to Russian River falls was amazing. Watching the salmon jumping up the falls was a highlight of our trip. It’s also an easy drive to Seward.

Got to do all the quintessential Alaskan things from this beautiful home base in Cooper Landing! Being on the Kenai Peninsula for a week allowed us to fish, kayak, hike, cruise to see whales from Seward and fly to see bears from Homer. We bought bear spray at $50 only to find two other unused containers already here at the house. Because you can't bring it on the plane we also left it in the house, so might be good for owner to list bear spray as a "amenity"!

Outstanding Property and Location in Heart of Kenai Penninsula
One of two magnificent large A frame houses situated on a 3-4 acre peninsula right on the Kenai River, located in the fishing mecca of Cooper Landing and central to other activities on the Kenai Penninsula. Beautiful home sleeps 8 in three bedrooms with two and one half baths. Laundry room with washer dryer. Magnificent kitchen with granite and state of the art appliances. Large dining /living area adjacent to the kitchen with magnificent stone fireplace. Built in TV, Stereo and WIFI. Terrace off living room has BBQ and views of river and mountains. Great onsite property management in a nearby building, and wonderful owner who was in residence in other A frame during out stay. Hard to imagine a nicer rental within miles of this place.

Overall, my family and I had a wonderful experience in Alaska. Being situated in Cooper Landing, allowed us to visit many areas of the Kenai Peninsula. Alaska is a beautiful state.

Amazing home
Beautiful scenery and a top flight home. All was great. Only two issues we had were that you cannot fish from the banks of the Kenai River and the induction range top is a pain. Aside from that the furnishings and home are all top of the top. Would definitely stay there again.

Absolutely Perfect!!
My wife and I are admittedly very picky about our accommodations when traveling and we are frequent Ritz, Four Seasons, etc... guests. Rentals tend to worry us because we never really know what to expect or just how quality the experience will be, but this house in Cooper Landing is pure perfection. This was THE BEST home we have ever rented and we intend to return annually. The location is fantastic on the Kenai Peninsula, local food options are great, access to rivers, trails, fishing is incredibly convenient. Rent this house, just stop looking and rent this house right now! You'll thank me. Also, the owner and caretakers are great to work with, really nice people. Enjoy!!!

The best accommodation in all of Alaska!
We thoroughly enjoyed this home as our base for fishing, hiking and sightseeing on the Kenai Peninsula. The location is perfect, both from a river view and easy access to fabulous hiking. For anyone looking for a similar experience, this home in Cooper Landing rivals anything in Yellowstone or Glacier for an upscale accommodation and location. The manager Jessica and her husband Courtney were readily available and provided the support we needed before and during our stay. They may have even arranged for the seven days of PERFECT weather.
All eight of us commented daily about how nice the house and the river view was. And how we want to come back — because seven days just isn’t enough!
Thank you Marcia, Jessica and Courtney

One of a kind destination. Beautiful, Clean, hospitality, Stunning View, coopers is a tranquil place
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Coopers Landing. Marcia and her staff were excellent. We received a warm welcome and intro. The home was very clean with all the upgrades and surely the creature comforts of home. The location is amazing sitting right below the Kenia Lake and on the Kenia river. With local shopping it made it convient to refill on supplies. Absolutely loved the hiking in the area as well. Very wonderful home area and surely a wonderful way to experience the great Alaskan outdoors!

Riverside Luxury
We recently spent an amazing week in this spectacular home on the Kenai River. The property is STUNNING, both inside and out! The river is a short walk from the house, and there are several spots perfect for fishing right from the property. The grounds are meticulously kept, and the home sits back off the highway, giving a sense of remoteness and privacy. The central location in Cooper Landing allows for easy day trips to Seward, Soldotna, and Homer. Inside, the home is breathtaking. From the gourmet kitchen, to the custom stair rails, to the soaring beams, to the steam shower, to the luxury linens - everything is first class! The caretakers, who live onsite, are friendly and helpful. Our fishing guide even picked us up at the door. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for five star accommodations on the Kenai. We definitely hope to stay there again!

Need more stars...
What's not to love about perfection. A one minute walk to the beautiful Kenai river is a highlight. Spacious deck is a highlight. Great kitchen. Great beds. Away from it all but close enough to rafting, kayaking and fishing. We wouldn't change a thing except departure day. If you want a perfect Kenai Peninsula vacation home, this is the one. Plus, you get the Adventure Guru concierge too.

."Dreamy house in dreamy setting" "Architectural Gem" "7 star Aman private residance."
Awesomeness found. Architectural opulence in Cooper Landing, who knew this kind of property existed in Alaska? It was more like a 7 star private bungalow at the Aman hotel chain or the Four Seasons.
We were met by the caretaker / concierge on site. They helped us park up and get situated in the home, explaining the full AV system, laundry, wifi, and setting up some ideal things to do in the area. (Also they live at the entry to the property in a separate house so it felt very secure and safe.)
It was hard to focus as the house featured some unbelievable scenarios, like flawless walnut floors, hand crafted metal work, steam shower, massive milled timber beams, and stunning views. After the 6 minute walk thru tutorial we started to unpack and noticed extremely high thread count Egyptian cotton sheets, top quality / gourmet cook wear, three types of pillows, guide books, historical photos, cut natural stone on the deck and fireplace, really a custom lair with top of the line finishes... a home with no expenses spared... just comfort everywhere. The location is central in Cooper landing and 15 steps to your private river fishing bank with little spaces to cast from. This one is not a "cabin" its not a "house" its more of a art piece that you can relax in.

Gorgeous Property, Great Location
What a treat! This place is beautiful inside and out. And we were spoiled by the caretaker who picked up groceries for us, and delivered them upon our arrival. Such a nice gesture to not have to do on vacation. Easy access from Seward to Soldotna. My only suggestion is an upgrade on the bedding. The sleep number beds and pillows were not comfortable for anyone in our group. But that could just be a preference, but I wanted to share it as our experience. Thanks for everything! We'd love to visit again if we get up that way.

Kenai Perfection!
The week we spent here was fantastic. This artfully crafted 'lodge' home is stunning inside and out. We were comfortable and pampered beyond expectation from our first booking questions through our stay. The location was great for us as a central place to return from adventures in Seward, Homer, and Soldotna. But it was tempting to stay 'home' everyday! Outside, we enjoyed the stunning views from the lawn, riverfront and generous porch. Inside, we were cozy, marveled at the beauty of the property, and slept well in amazing beds. When cooking or grilling, we found the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The caretakers, the Larsens, were responsive and helpful, so be sure to contact them! The Coulsens have created a very special place and the Kenai River and Cooper Landing are gems.
