About this property

Fishing Lodge - Comfort in the Wilderness - Fishing at Its Finest

Cohoe Lodge LLC is family owned since 1995. Kevin and Marylee Koch are your hosts along with their sons Daniel and Hunter. While Cohoe Lodge LLC is a business, Cohoe Lodge is more like a personal adventure that our family loves to share with our guests and friends. We will help you plan an unforgettable one of a kind vacation.

The Lodge is situated on a scenic wooded bluff overlooking Crooked Creek. You can enjoy excellent bank fishing that is seasonally available on Crooked Creek which is on the premises. There is also excellent bank fishing on public land on the Kasilof River which is a short walk from the Lodge (one to two blocks). There is also great success with non-guided fly fishing or spin fishing elsewhere throughtout the Peninsula. Cohoe Lodge is your base camp for Salt Water excursions available in nearby Cook Inlet, Seward, and Homer for Halibut, Ling Cod and Red Snapper. Information and fishing suggestions are available at the Lodge.

Within walking distance is the Kasilof River where you can pull in King Salmon, Silver Salmon, Red Sockeye Salmon, Dolly Varden, and Steelhead Trout.
World Class Rainbow Trout are in plentiful supply within a short driving distance.
Float and motorboat trips can be arranged on the Kasilof and Kenai Rivers for Silvers and Kings.

Cohoe Lodge has housekeeping apartments, each with its own private entrance, kitchen and eating area, sleeping area and bathroom with tub and shower. Each unit can comfortably accommodate four to six people and are fully furnished with cooking and eating utensils, linens and bedding, stove and refrigerator, freezers, and individually-controlled heating. Each has an outside deck for relaxing and enjoying the beauty of the area. There is also a outdoor hot tub on a deck overlooking Crooked Creek meandering through the valley below. Views of the Kasilof River Valley and the Kenai Mountains are also present for your enjoyment.

The common area includes:
Hot tub and deck
Fish cleaning station
Washer/dryer room
Freezers
Bon fire area

Our rate of $200 per night is for the first two people. Each additional person is $25 per person per night.
Check-in time is 3:00 p.m.
Check - out time is 11:00 a.m.
Requests for early check-in or late check-out should be made in advance. We will do our best to accommodate you.

We try to accommodate our refund policy to each individual situation. If you are in an unfortunate situation that requires you to cancel your reservation, we will try to work with you as much as possible to move your dates somewhere within the next 12 months. If that is not possible, it is possible that your refund will be forfeited. The following is an explanation of why that may happen. After we book reservations, we turn away numerous other visitors because we are fully booked. These people then go elsewhere for their accommodations. If you cancel your reservation, we have lost other business. Please understand that our Lodge depends on this revenue for our livelihood.

When you stay at the Cohoe Lodge, you can trust that we will take care of you. Arrive as a guest and leave as a friend and/or part of our family.

We welcome all questions and we will assist in your needs whether it is "what clothing should we bring" or "what fishing tackle is the best" or "where is the best place to view bears, birds, or other wildlife"? We are here for you!

Wonderful Fishing Lodge Stay in Alaska
When I first found this fishing lodge on Vrbo, it seemed almost too good to be true. But everything was even more perfect then as listed online. Marylee is the most thoughtful, gracious host. She provided us with all the information we needed and showed us around. The lodge was just perfect for our salmon fishing adventure in Alaska! The full kitchen contained everything we needed. Additionally, the dining room, living room and bedroom with multiple beds was perfect for our fishing group of 5. Not to mention the wader/boot drying room and freezers were so convenient! The beds are comfortable and the terrace, outdoor seating areas and hot tub, are excellent as well. The location and amenities are just incredible! Everything here has been so lovingly thought out for a great stay!

Perfect rental for a busy vacation!
This rental was perfect for our week of salmon fishing. It was more spacious than the photos show. We had 6 people, between 27-85 and had plenty of space. About 20-30 minutes from good fishing spots along the Kenai. Not a bad commute at all. Marylee was the greatest! Always made sure we had everything we needed and really felt like a good friend by the end of the week. Highly recommend this location for your Alaska fishing trip.
