“Beautiful Cabins”

Very nice hotel. Our cabin was very clean. The terrace outside of the main building has a great view of the Kenai river. Breakfast was nice (not included), we didn’t go for the buffet instead we had very good pancakes. There is a short walking trail next to the hotel with some informative signs about the vegetation in the area. Our only minor problem in this hotel was the young woman at the information desk that kept engaged in small talk with someone and even though she saw us waiting there she still didn’t make any effort on finishing her conversation and helping us.

As part of a 7 day land package with Princess, we stayed 2 nights at Kenai, 2 nights at McKinley, 1 night at Denali, and 2 nights at Fairbanks. This was by far the most romantic lodge that we stayed in. Staff was very friendly and responsive. View was fantastic. River float in the area was fantastic as we saw 2 grizzlies and numerous eagles that were within a 100' from the Combat fishing that was going on for the sockeye salmon. Wonderful stay and experience

“Love this Princess Lodge”

Of all the Princess Lodges we stayed in, this is the best! We found Princess Kenai to be much quieter without the crowds of people coming and going. It is set in a wonderful position high up above the river with great walks down to the river (and a phone to request a lift back up the hill!) and another woodland walk which was beautiful. The lodges are mostly set in groups of 4 and each one has its own terrace and log burning stove which was fantastic. We lit it even though it wasn't that cold. There is a comfortable lounge and an excellent terrace to sit and appreciate the wonderful views (and the cocktails!). Even the laundry has a nice terrace outside to sit and watch the world go by. There had been bears around but we were disappointed not to see any. We did the river rafting trip which was beautiful and peaceful - highly recommended. We ate at the Eagle's Crest Restaurant where we had wonderful food (recommend the scallops and the creme brulee!).

“I Agree - Great Place to Stay”

Portland, Oregon

Three nights - totally comfortable, clean and relaxing! Good mattresses, loved the wood fire stove, private view off our deck - all in all very comfortable. The staff is attentive and friendly, the restaurant was good and do try the bison chili at the bar. This property is a bit smaller than the other Princess lodges we saw, but feels very homey and natural and has a great setting. This is an excellent location, close to Seward and not too far from Anchorage. Lots to do - we went riding and rafting on the Kenai River through Alaska Horsemen. The lodge overlooks the river - just beautiful. Would totally recommend a visit here.

“Beautiful, Peaceful but not a lot of things to do.”

We loved our stay here. We had a beautiful cozy cabin and really enjoyed our one night here. It was very private and had beautiful views. We got a much needed good night's rest after going, going, going with all kinds of activities for the previous 4 days. Its a perfect place to stay if your enroute between Homer and Seward or Homer and Anchorage. There is not a lot of things to do unless your fishing or rafting but perfect for some true relaxing and catching up on rest. A little expensive for our budget but worth it.
