About this house rental
Kenai Bluff House is located in downtown historic Kenai. The house was built in 1935, and bought by my grandparents in 1947. My dad was raised in this house! Of course, the house has been remodeled and has all the modern conveniences, but has a wonderful and rich family history. The home has four bedrooms and two bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen and plenty of room for your whole family.
The property has a large lawn and outdoor furniture for enjoying the stunning view of Cook Inlet. You can watch the fishing boats come and go with the tide. Eagles often land right on the lawn as they are out cruising for their next ocean meal.
Kenai is a small town and the “downtown” is quaint and quiet. The home is located at the end of a residential street. It is located next door to Erik Hansen Scout Park, a small community park and contains a bronze statue of a Boy Scout overlooking the Cook Inlet. Interpretive displays point out many physical features of the landscape and a memorial plaque is attached to the base of the statue. Park includes few trees, some shrubs, two flower gardens, and a gravel walkway leading to the bluff’s edge. This is a great area just to sit, relax and enjoy the extensive views over the lower Cook Inlet, tidal lands, and mouth of the Kenai River.
We are located within walking distance of the historical Russian Orthodox Church and Kenai Visitor and Convention Center which has a historical walking tour available within this area. This property is on the walking tour, as The Showalter House (#10) !!
There are several nice places to eat where you can walk as well.
Reasonable rates per night for four people. No separate cleaning fee. However, guests must not leave fish remains on property. Cleaning fee applies if fish remains are left on property.

We enjoyed the house and view. It was absolutely fantastic! The kitchen did lack a few supplies as far as pots and pans, and the Internet did not work for the entirety of the trip…… But who needs that when you’re in Alaska!! Very accessible to salmon, fishing and other attractions.Other than that, it’s an absolute gorgeous place and would highly suggest staying at this property!!

This place is so great that I have trouble recommending it because I have to reserve it more than a year in advance.

We love the location and we’ve stayed here for 4 years now for a project. With that said, we’ve seen that zero of the money given to this rental goes back into the house. If you stay, bring everything you could imagine needing for cooking-there were plates, 2 bowls and about 3 cups and a handful of silverware. Zero grill tools and the tank was empty. 1 knife that cut like a butter knife. Baking sheets are non existent and the pans have seen better days. We arrived and did not have check in codes from the owners so we spent 3 hours locked out calling, texting, and emailing with zero response. We finally got ahold of an outside party who relunctantly gave us the code. The tv didn’t work, the house had 1 roll of toilet paper and zero trash bags and no outside trash can. Black out blinds only exist in 1 bedroom. The internet cut out after a week. Management desperately needs to put the smallest amount of effort back into the house.
With that said, the house is spacious, clean, and relatively comfortable. The view could not get any better overlooking the river entrance. There is great quick access to the beach and the neighborhood is quiet. Everything you could need to access is within a mile. Thanks for having us.
