About this apartment rental

Pristine view and just few steps from fishing right off the bank of the famous Kenai River. This property is very conveniently located in the middle of the Kenai Peninsula. Just minutes away from the small town conveniences in Sterling such as restaurants, groceries, etc. This property is a great base accommodation for your whole Alaskan vacation. From halibut and salmon fishing to white water rafting to bird watching, guided or not, this is it! You could be just about any where on the Kenai Peninsula and do just about anything you can dream of with very little effort and minimal time frames. From the "Bears Den", you are 11 miles from the heart of Soldotna's busy town center or 22 miles to the city of Kenai if you want to visit those areas. Also you are 90 minutes away from Seward or 110 minutes away from Homer the other direction by car on the Kenai Peninsula. You will feel like you are in the wilds of Alaska and yet relaxed with natural beauty all around.

The 145 feet of our private river bank front to fish off of with plenty of elbow room, view, or just relax and enjoy. There are 4 new daylight platform decks to fish and view from for ease and convenience. It also has picnic tables and benches, fire pit, fish cleaning table, and plenty of wild life to see. There is a your own full size freezer for your catch, satellite TV with a 55 inch HD flat screen, and wireless internet to stay in touch with. You will also have your own kitchenette for your fresh catch and for times you would rather just stay in. Also your own private newer washer and dryer for your convenience.

Our one bedroom vacation rental, "Bears Den", has accommodation for 4 to 5 people. The vacation rental has queen size bed and 2 twin size bunk beds. There is a very large comfortable couch and a rollout bed if necessary to suit your needs.

WE ALSO HAVE OUR WOLF DEN CABIN/BUNK HOUSE JUST STEPS AWAY TO ACCOMMODATE A LARGE FAMILY OR PARTY. These sleeping quarters come with a beautiful Kenai River view which will sleep 2 or 3 additional guests. This Wolf Den will not be available without the use of the Bears Den and a one time additional cleaning fee. This is because because the Wolf Den is a dry cabin without a bath or sink. It is warm, comfortable, and newly remodeled with a knotty pine interior and captain twin beds. It also has its own fridge and microwave and table and chairs for games and snacking. WI-FI, TV, AND INTERNET will be available.

The "Bears Den" is just one of our four vacation rental accommodations. We also have the "Eagles Nest" lodging on VRBO with the listing number #798980 in case you are interested in our property availability. And we have the "Klondike House" which is a 3 bedroom ranch home with a listing number #1801842. And then there is the brand new "Moose Cabin" also listed on VRBO with #3288577. These other properties may be of value in case you have a very large group or party and want the whole property to use. Or maybe if you have some calendar or scheduling issues.

We are able to help you customize a package of adventures and side trips during your stay for you. We want you to have a great time and wonderful memories.

Views and access to fishing are spectacular. The property grounds and unit were well maintained and felt like a well loved cabin. If you are looking to stay on the Kenai and are ok being about 10 to 20 minutes from town/fishing pull-ins….then it’s the perfect setting. We loved it. Extremely quiet.

Our group of fishing buddies has stayed in the Bears Den many times over the past several years and we've never been disappointed. Ron and Katia are wonderful hosts who do everything possible to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and the view from the deck is fantastic. The property is located right on the Kenai River with easy access to the water. The topper is the enclosed gazebo with lots of seating and the best fire pit anywhere! Highly recommend!

Took a chance on a location we have not stayed before. Ron and his wife were wonderful hosts. If you are looking for a quiet place away from chaos in Soldotna during peak season this is the place to go.

We stayed in the Bears Den and wolf den (bunk house), which was perfect for our teenage boys. Wonderful view of the river, great platforms for fishing and fishing equipment was provided by Ron which was great. The fishing at the property was a little slow while we there (timing) but Ron told us spots to go to catch fish. Ron really knows the area and is a great host! Can't wait to get back to the area and stay again.
