Kenai Riverside Lodge is located on the banks of the mighty Kenai River in Cooper Landing, surrounded by snow-capped mountains.  

The Atmosphere

The lodge features nine gorgeous acres of peaceful, wooded beauty along the azure-blue Kenai River. Choose from a mix of charming lodging styles, from the historic cabins to an upscale guest suite or home. No matter your option, you’ll be awed by the scenery around you as you enjoy the amenities of the lodge and property. The lodge’s expert team of guides are on hand to help you explore your surroundings, with the Kenai River, whether angling or rafting, being a major draw. It’s also the perfect jumping-off-point for a river trip that will take you to their sister property, the remote and wonderful Kenai Backcountry Lodge.

Your Room

To fit with the natural riverside setting, each of the 16 cabins boasts a rustic charm of an Alaska homestead, but with the addition of modern comforts of electricity, private bath, and comfortable beds. Adirondack chairs await you on the front porch for relaxing in between activities and listening to the rushing water of the Kenai River. 

Food and Drink

Partake of a delicious breakfast buffet each morning, complete with fresh juices, tea, and coffee. A packed lunch accompanies you on your daily activities, and a four-course dinner awaits each evening, made with the freshest, locally-sourced ingredients.
