    Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is a GREAT place to explore the great things that nature has to…read moreoffer in Kenai! The ranger had lots of information on local wildlife to see in the fall along with tips for checking out the trails at the Refuge. When you visit you should definitely take the time to check out the center and ask the ranger what's good to see in season before you hit the trail. I did the short hike to the lakeshore and the Centennial trail there that loops through the woods. Since I visited in the fall, there were lots of colorful leaves and mosses to view, but no pesky bugs, which was cool. You'll find the trails here easy to navigate, they're well signed. The lake was really pretty with some nice mountain views. I didn't see any wildlife, but did see evidence of some. The ranger said there are bear and moose around, so just be aware that you may come across them in your exploration. (She said likely moose, but not bear...although it's not impossible...) I also heard that there's a new show on Animal Planet, here's the link: https://www.broadwayworld.com/bwwtv/article/New-Animal-Planet-Series-INTO-ALASKA-Brings-Viewers-Along-with-the-US-Fish-and-Wildlife-Service-20181003 That will showcase the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge on Monday October 15, 2018. (It's called Into Alaska) You definitely want to check out the behind the scenes info about the Refuge and its Rangers! I'm glad I took the time to visit the Refuge. Thanks for the great trail and the info!

    This place recently opened in May, and it is very nice. It's fairly small in that it doesn't have…read moremany informative attractions but what is there is really nice. There is no cost for admission which is a perk, however, there is a drop box for cash in the event you want to donate. This place isn't phenomenal so don't expect to be blown away, but it's definitely worth visiting.

    $5 daily car parking, $15 daily camping sites, $15 daily boat trailer parking sites, fishing access…read moreis free, assuming you have a license. Not really impressed with this particular location, although we didn't fish, so I don't know if the "catching" is good at this location. There's access to the river bank for fishing, which is why people go here. Bathrooms are clean. The vistas here aren't terribly impressive. Campsites are merely functional and nor very attractive. It's definitely geared toward RVers who are there to fish. Frankly the sites are ugly, very open and exposed. I observed a number of vacancies despite it being the beginning of fishing season which I think speaks to the overall quality of this location- dusty and desolate.

    Jenn and I headed down to Kenai/Soldotna for the annual Dip Net thing, with our trailer and dogs…read moreattached..problem was we could not find an empty campsite...can you believe that? No sites in Alaska...aww God bless the tourists that rent RV's...) anyrate we followed some signs to Morgans Landing Site, and much to our surprise sites were available! We choose a very nice and secluded one, surrounded by trees, and brush...complete privacy...what was really cool was there were Bald Eagles visible, along with Moose everywhere..we soon why the tourists did not flock here...Bears...90% of the occupied park were Alaskans who knew what to do and not to do...the tourists went screaming on their way..as a few actually tried to feed them...Jeeez how dumb..anyway..we stayed 5 days as allotted, and it was beautiful...the kenai was 1/4 of a mile away, the wildlife..and us in our trailer...the campsite is very much worth visiting...just beautiful...
