Sterling Riverfront Retreat - Private Kenai River Access
Escape to the Kenai River at Sterling Riverfront Retreat, a cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home tucked away on a private, wooded riverfront lot in Sterling, Alaska. Sleeping up to 8 guests, this comfortable retreat is an ideal getaway for families, fishing groups, and anyone looking to enjoy the beauty and adventure of the Kenai Peninsula.
The cabin-style exterior welcomes you into a warm, inviting interior with many recent updates. Relax in the spacious living room on the large sofa or recliners while enjoying the large-screen TV and peaceful river views. A dedicated desk provides a convenient workspace if you need to stay connected during your getaway.
The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals, including a gas range, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, and Instant Pot. The dining area seats 8 comfortably, while the large deck offers an additional outdoor dining table—perfect for enjoying a meal surrounded by the sights and sounds of the river.
Sleeping arrangements include a queen bed in the primary bedroom, a queen and full-size bed in the second bedroom, and two twin beds in the third bedroom, making the home especially well suited for larger families and groups.
Step outside and enjoy the peaceful wooded setting and expansive grassy yard leading toward the river. The large deck features outdoor dining and a fire pit, creating a great place to unwind after a day of adventure. Best of all, guests have private Kenai River fishing access approximately 100 feet from the back deck, along with a private fishing platform and fish-cleaning shelter—an exceptional setup for anglers.
The retreat is secluded and enjoys very little traffic while still being conveniently located for exploring the Kenai Peninsula. Soldotna is approximately 14 miles away, and Kenai Municipal Airport is about 25 miles away. Whether your days are spent fishing the Kenai River, exploring the peninsula, or simply relaxing by the water, Sterling Riverfront Retreat provides a peaceful home base for your Alaska adventure.
Additional amenities include Wi-Fi, a washer and dryer, and ample parking for several vehicles.
