Summary:
Lupine Cabin @ Keystone Kozy is a wonderfully appointed cabin with close river access to the world famous Kenai River.

The Kenai River is the most popular sport fishing destination in Alaska. Each year there are two runs each of king salmon, coho salmon, sockeye salmon, plus a run of pink salmon every other year. The world record king salmon, which weighed about 44 kg (97 lb), was caught in the Kenai River in 1985. The Kenai is also the home of trophy size rainbow trout and Dolly Varden. Occasionally there will be reports of catching of "Steelhead"(Sea-run Trout). In recent years, the king salmon fishery has been closed or heavily restricted due to low returns of fish. The coho salmon runs occur in early August and early October. The September run is favored by local anglers due to the larger size of the silver salmon. The sockeye salmon runs are in late-June and mid-July-August. Sockeyes are considered the premier salmon for eating, canning, and smoking.

Tucked just five miles from the heart of Soldotna, this location feels worlds away. Surrounded by towering spruce and birch, with the sound of the Kenai River flowing nearby, it offers a rare balance of wild Alaskan beauty and quiet seclusion—yet with shops, dining, and conveniences only minutes down the road. It’s a place where eagles soar overhead, moose wander through the trees, and the midnight sun stretches across endless skies—all while keeping you close to everything Soldotna has to offer.

Getting Around:
While we presume you'll be driving to our destination there are all means of commercial transportation including a commercial airport in Kenai 25 miles away. There are several airplane operators that can bring you to more remote settings for bear watching, fishing, and site seeing.
