Activities/Attractions: We are surrounded by beautiful mountains and are close to Kenai River and lake, great for trout fishing. World class Kenai & Russian River salmon fishing is approximately 5 miles from us.

We can refer you to and make reservations for you with reputable guides for float & fishing trips or great hiking trails. There's great hiking within 5 miles of us that will take you on a 2 mile adventure to the Russian River Falls ... renowned for it's close proximity to nature. You can spot a salmon leaping while bears and eagles where for just the right moment to get one!

Another great attraction is the Kenai Fjords Tours which departs out of Seward. If you're lucky you'll see whale, otter, seal and waterfowl! We can assist with reservations so the tickets will be waiting here for you! If you stay with us, we offer you a relaxing & comfortable visit with warm Eskimo and Cajun hospitality.

"Having returned to the lower 48 I have had time to meditate on my visit to your rugged state of Alaska. Just wanted you to know that of the five B&B's I stayed in on my visit, I found Alaskan Sourdough Bed & Breakfast to be the best! The food in other establishments did not even come close to yours. I have not yet had the chance to make the cinnamon rolls Lovie taught me how to make, but I am looking forward to trying when I do my annual fishing trip to Wyoming."

"After a marvellous trip through Alaska I've finally returned to Germany, but I'm still living on the memories. I really enjoyed my time in Cooper Landing, especially your hospitality. Thank you again! I didn't find anybody who could keep up with your delicious sourdough pancakes!"

"Our son and his wife stayed in one of your cabins New Years Eve and were very impressed."

"We stayed with you last summer and loved it. We are planning to visit Alaska again with another couple and plan to stay at your place ... looking forward to Lovie's breakfast again."
