Soldotna, Alaska · Kenai River

Where the river runs red.

A private riverfront lodge for 14, built for fishing trips on the Kenai. King, sockeye, halibut and cod. Great room, big river deck, a fish processing room with five industrial-size freezers, and a Ford truck included.

Wake up above the Kenai. Fish the water that turns the whole valley turquoise. Then come home to a lodge built for exactly this: wet waders, big meals, and a cleaning station that keeps up with the catch.
