Reviewed By Marie MUnfortunately, we booked this reservation on booking.com and the site indicated we had one of the last rooms. We arrived in Anchor Point as my directions on Google disappeared. We called the owners who provided directions and were pleasant. We drove one a paved and dirt road for 7 miles off the main road. The owners met us at an intersection and we followed them to the location. No other guests were there and the owner stated booking.com often says there are no rooms left. This was an older home that is for sale. The steps at the beginning have no railing and when there was a railing, it was very loose. The room was large but old and looked like no one had been there in a year or more. Not all the blinds closed, the tub looked unsanitary, and there was a spider on the chair. The place was dusty. We would have rather driven the extra few miles to Homer. The view is nice from the owner's suite. The entire house was empty and it had a very eerie feel. Lucky for the owners we were tired and it was late. If we knew Homer was another 20-30 minutes down the road, we would have gone there. You can get better for your dollar in Homer
2. Moose Cabin
3. King Halibut Lodge
Experience the total Alaskan experience here! There is .4 miles of beach to explore with tons of wildlife including whales, seals, otters, moose, and tons of eagles! There are tons of charter fishing boats not far from shore because we have one of the best fishing spots around! There are 6 volcanos lining the horizon creating the most beautiful sunsets around. Enjoy the large fire place and large gathering areas. Comfy beds with a private entrance and a great view! You can rent one room or the whole lodge. We are located off the main road between all the best fishing in the area. One way they can go into Homer for Halibut, rock fish, shark and more. Also whale sightings and wonderful restaurants/unique shops and even the Salty Dog Saloon. And they won’t want to miss a Fat Olives Pizza or the Little Mermaid Cafe. The other way Kenai offers King Salmon, sockeye salmon and trout fishing. Fly fishing lessons and float plane fly outs to the Big Lakes where you can enjoy bear watching and fly over the glaciers. Come enjoy Alaska!

Awesome Father and Son Trip
Reviewed By Yumlicious2This was a trip that will last a life time of memories. Having been to Alaska some years ago, I ask my son if he would like to do a father/son trip for fishing. Of course his response was YES DAD! From the very first contact with Soaring Eagle Lodge sales, Courtney was always ready to answer our questions and initial information. Very professional as well as all the staff we communicated with or met during our stay. We flew Alaska Airlines to Anchorage and our rental vehicle was ready and waiting for our arrival. We drove the three hour drive on some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable with snow covered mountains and volcano all the way to Ninilchik. We stopped in Soldotna and the Walmart Super Center to pick up a few food items to take to the cabin. No gas station at Walmart but down the street we found a station gas was $4.39 gallon which is about the same price as here in Fort Worth, TX. When we arrived at the lodge we were met by Linda the property manager. She showed us our cabin and our weeks schedule. we had two free days and four days of charter fishing for Halibut and King Salmon. The cabin had everything from cooking utensils, paper towels, coffee, gas grill on the balcony, and a huge bowl of fresh fruit, a bottle of nice wine and fresh flowers. Attention to detail is appreciated. Our first fishing trip was Sunday in Cook Inlet for Halibut. Thomas was our Captain and there were four other members of our fishing party. We met at the Ninilchik Charters where we were met by John the charter manager and our captain. After driving to the launch site and on out to the fishing location, each one of us were able to catch our limit of two Halibut, one over 26 inches and one 26 inches under. The ones we caught were in the 25 to 35 pound size. A very exciting day and our guide was very professional and knowledgeable. Monday was a free day and we did some local sightseeing. There is an old Russian Orthodox Church in Ninilchik that was built in the early 20th century that is interesting to see and not far from the lodge. Tuesday was our river floating trip on the Kasilof River for King Salmon. Our guide Garrett told us that the Kings were not fully migrating into this area yet and we were about three weeks early. I was able to catch one 15 pound King and a steelhead which we released back to the river.There were several other boats floating and fishing but it was very slow. Alaska game had issued a notice that native salmon could not be taken and only those with the top small fin that had been removed by the hatchery at birth could be harvested. We river fished again on Thursday and I caught a 18 pound King Salmon however, had to release it due to it being a native. Of course we did get a couple of quick photos. Wednesday was another free day and we had booked a Major Marine Tour of the Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise out of Seward, Alaska. We had a 11:30am launch and drove to Seward from the lodge which was a two and one-half hour drive. This was another experience that will last a life time. Captain Chris who was our captain on the Spirit of Matushka and his crew provided us a delightful trip. We saw Humpback Whales, Grey Whales, Puffins, Sea Otters, Seals, Mountain Goats, and even a black bear laying on the snow next to a glacier. Captain stayed at the glacier till there were several calving and everyone was able to have plenty of photos. This was a six hour cruise with heated interior sitting and you could walk about on the deck. On Friday we met again at Ninilchik Charters for our final halibut fishing trip. We met Captain Coby at 6AM for our fishing trip. Once we were launched, Captain Coby took us to the spot where the huge halibut hang out. Within 20 minutes my son caught a 76 pound halibut and 10 minutes later in caught a 70 pound halibut. These were our 26 inch over and we soon caught our under 26 inches that weighed around 25 pounds. The fish we had caught prior to these had been vacuumed sealed and frozen and when we arrived back at the charter facility my son's halibut was weighted and filets were prepared for vacuum sealing and into the freezer. Since we had an early departure back to Anchorage Saturday morning we ask John the manager if we could pick up the shipping boxes at 3AM. Of course you can! Saturday John met us and had everything packed in styrofoam containers and boxed ready to take with us. A total of 3 boxes and total weight of 140 pounds. No issues at the airlines in Anchorage and when we arrived back the fish were still frozen hard. Can not begin to explain how awesome this father, son trip was and all the folks we met during the trip. Mike, the owner of both Soaring Eagle and Ninilchik Charters made us feel at home and the property is gorgeous over looking Cook Inlet and snow covered mountains. Even had moose walking around in the evening eating the green grass. My son loved the length of the daylight hours and we both agreed we need to do this again. Thanks again to all for the best trip ever!
