From Anchorage, our lodge can be reached by a fun 30-minute commuter flight to Kenai and a short 20-minute drive. Or you may rent a car in Anchorage and enjoy a leisurely 3-hour drive through the breathtakingly beautiful Chugach Mountains. Soldotna is in the heart of the Kenai Peninsula with the magnificent Kenai River running right through town. It is the perfect location for our lodge and your vacation.
