Our stay was absolutely wonderful! Staff was all kind and helpful, room was off main house with good privacy and bed was comfy! Fishing the Kenai with Boaz was one of our favorite activities! The staff was so thoughtful and even cooked us dinner and bought a cake for our anniversary. We met some great people and were able to hang out with them at small bar in the house. Would definitely come back and bring the boys next time .

Great B&B on the Kenai Peninsula. Steve, Monika, & Bill were great and so friendly! We told them what we wanted to do and like that, it was set up with no additional planning required. Kopra cooked up a nice breakfast everyday with ease (eggs bene, pancakes, eggs & bacon, etc). Monika's daughter also made a great pastry with jam that I should have gotten the recipe for. Bill helps to process/pack your fish when you get back from wherever you go, with a smile. These people are so genuine and kind and it was really nice to feel so welcome, as if you are part of the family. I only wish for touch less
