Overview of Alaska Kenai Adventure

National Geographic rates this lodge as one of the top 100 Alaska adventure vacation lodges in the world!  Everyone in your group or family will find wonderful adventures that suit their taste at this lodge. Numerous adventure and fishing packages make this a fantastic destination.

Sitting on 25 acres of the original homestead site, this Alaska Kenai adventure riverside lodge is at the very core of all they do. Overlooking the confluence of the Kenai and Moose rivers and an amazing view of the snowcapped Chugach Range, this lodge features a quarter mile of what is unquestionably the Alaska Kenai Adventurefinest shore fishing on the Kenai River.

Adventure activities abound!  Enjoy an overnight at their famous bear camp where you live in the midst of brown bear habitat viewing their daily activities, hike various mountain trails, view glaciers, watch whales, kayak and more.

A visit to bear camp is a must for every adventure trip to this lodge!

When we visited this amazingly diverse lodge, we were impressed with the variety of activities.  Each day was a new an unique new adventure for us.  The whale breaching that you see in the photo above was just off the bow of our boat!  We spent the night at the lovely bear camp where we saw cubs playing in the streams, big brown bears walking through the water on the coast line.  What an amazing sight to see, only to be followed by killer whales and glaciers in the same afternoon.  We hiked to beautiful glaciers, caught big King Salmon, fished from the banks of the lodge and at the end of our adventure, we chose a float plane back to Anchorage where we explored the city.  Our time at this lodge was a perfect combination of fishing and activities and it makes for a fantastic family adventure.

Lodging

Riverside main lodge:
Located on the banks of the Kenai River, their amenities include private bath, in-room fireplace, mints on your pillow each evening, “coffee to your door” wake-up each morning. The rooms are comfortable with a fireplace in each room.  Add to that the great happy hour and well prepared meals in the river and Mountain View dining room.

Bear camp:
In the shadow of glaciered Mt. Illiamna, between snow peaked mountains, forest and the sea, lies “Bear Camp”.  12 guests at a time will share this special area, housed in comfortable, heated tent-cabins complete with beds with mattresses, propane light, writing desks. Your private cook will prepare healthy fresh meals along with wine and beverages.  The attentive, knowledgeable staff will teach you the ins and outs of staying in bear country, while sharing with you the knowledge that can only be gleaned from actually living with these magnificent animals.  This is one of Alaska’s most exclusive bear viewing destinations.  THIS IS A MUST FOR ANY TRIP TO THIS LODGE!

Meals at the lodge:

Your hosts understand that your time off the water or trail is an important component of any vacation experience.  At this lodge, they seek to provide a comfortable, accessible place away from the “Real world”.  The chef and his staff serve up authentic and fresh American favorites that everyone can enjoy.  Vegetarian and special dietary needs or kid’s items are handled daily, and all meals provide options to “go light” or stock up for the following days adventure!    In the evening prior to happy hour be sure and check out Mike’s bacon wrapped Halibut chunks or his smoked salmon and Dill spread on thick rustic crackers.

Dinner is generally served plated tableside but also occasionally buffet style, depending upon the meal.  The menu focuses on fresh fish (salmon and Halibut) with tasty sauces.  The “all American” turkey and stuffing dinner is also one of the favorites year after year.  Vegetarian and other specialty diets are also accommodated happily.  Many meals offer variety of fruits and vegetables so that you may tweak your own personal diet yourself.  Of course, this being a vacation, desert is also served after dinner!
