On a quick Alaska scouting trip, these Happy Campers popped in to check out the Kenai River and fell in love with the natural beauty and fishing potential–not to mention the nice camping on the Kenai River, epic volleyball matches, cooking on the campfire and more! They were a little in between runs and the river was murky and muddy from rain and snow-melt still, but they all vowed to return next summer and stay longer to catch some of the Kenai’s prized sockeye & chinook! Good on ya for giving strong effort on King Salmon fishing despite the conditions! We’ll see you next year and we’re glad you found us Lynda, Suzi, Mike, Hannah and the Gomez Family!

About the Author: The Alaska Dream
Our family of six has been living the Alaska Dream on the world famous Kenai River for the past 15+ years, enjoying the bounty of the land & sea in everything we do! All of our children were born in Alaska, and both of us have lived here for 30+ years. We love sharing the Alaska Dream with visitors from around the corner and around the world and we especially love to help families and children catch their 1st salmon, halibut or rainbow trout and learn how to care for it all the way through the process of cooking it in delicious gourmet Alaska fashion. Enjoy reading our Alaska Fishing Report, Cooking Alaska Fish & Game, Alaska Photo of the Week and other sections of our website The Alaska Dream and we hope to have the chance to help you experience YOUR Alaska Dream someday too!
On a family RV trip through Alaska we stumbled upon the Kenai Riverfront Resort and fell in love with the natural beauty of this hidden gem! It has something for everyone, from fishing on the Kenai to biking down a lovely country road to feed the neighbor horses…and the best part of our time there…a good old fashioned Kid vs Adults volleyball game! The sauna on site really came in handy after that! Our entire family agrees this is the blue ribbon winner for places to visit! Many thanks to the Nelson family for making our trip memorable. Can’t wait to come back and see the “Snack & Tack” in action!
