Rent it!!!

This is a beautiful place with lots of room for gatherings. The bedroom setting is really great and perfect for large groups with everyone still having their own (big) bedroom and private bathroom. The common spaces are very large, with enough space to do separate activities but still feel like we are all together. It has a rustic lodge feel to it with beautiful wood/log accents and very private. You will not find a better place for large family or business gatherings!

McAfee Family

The property was beautiful, spacious and secluded. The kitchen was fully equipped for any meal you would want to prepare. We had a group of 15 ( aged 5 months old to 77) and everyone enjoyed it. We played cards, pool, ping pong and some fished on the private dock. Our host, Linda, arranged for 2 fishing trips and a day of massages. We got to see Moose, whales, sea lions and bald eagles, not to mention the beautiful Alaska scenery. We would definitely recommend anyone planning a trip to Alaska to stay at Alaska Legends Kenai River Lodge.

The best experience!

We had our wedding here and had 38 guests stay. This property and the accommodations were more than we could have ever dreamed of! Brett is amazing and made everything perfect for our special day! All our guests had the time of their lives the two days we stayed and we are all anticipating a trip back to this lodge! It was beyond amazing and hard to put into words how great of experience we had. This shouldn’t even be a question if you’re looking to book a wedding or any event at this place!!!!

Awesome!

Booked the entire lodge for my group of 24 and had more than enough room. The place was perfect in both it's "lifestyles of the rich and famous" feel, and it's camping in the woods location. Can't recommend highly enough. You will want to post pictures on social media showing how awesome this place is.
