      Drop Anchor Seaview Glamping Homer Alaska

      Seaview/Glacier Luxury Glamping Huge Bell Canvas Tent Rental on Bike Trail

      Host Mel, she and her family micro mini farm glamping rentals are amazing. Mel has some fabulous,  AK born and raised 3rd generation, stories, she shared with us. she could write a book about her life. 

       She's taking over her a 1950's log cabin property her family owns and she grew up in. Her family are developing a micro mini farm / garden for her children, she's set up these amazingly gorgeous huge bell tent rentals, is refurbishing an old popup camper to rent, built an outdoor Bath House Hot Shower, has a Common Area inside a building she's still remodeling but is still fabulous, we LOVED having indoor flush toilets, All the cooking amenities you could possibly think of needing but not need to bring yourself, from pots and pans, to all dish ware to prepare your meals and to eat them on dishware sets. there's a fridge, wall shelves FULL of Books, Games, etc. two large tables to eat indoors and leather couch to relax and socialize space in, it has a huge deck all views of ocean and glaciers from every spot on her little acre property. The Bike Trail is literally out front of her property, abd it’s maybe a 3-5 minute bike ride to the middle of downtown/shops/restaurants, art galleys, Breweries etc. our family enjoyed having the in town convenience. no one in our group had any issues sleeping in tents, fully furnished like a fancy hotel room, and are super tall tent, they’re on a huge deck Host Mel build herself from reclaimed wood, 

      we had our own wood fire pit with bbq grill and picnic table with an umbrella, Adirondack chairs, 

      BEST nights sleep ever while "Camping" 

      Warm Down Comforters, soft beddings and pillows, extra blankets, bright lanterns and lighting, recharging stations.

      The tents have 1 or 2 queen beds, kids had thick sleep mats, a baby bed, 

       one night was chilly the tent heaters only took 2 minutes to warm up the tents. 

      Host Mel warned us, all we would need to bring was our selves, clothes and actual food we wanted to cook and eat and boy was she right!,

       firepits are also set up as camp cooking bbq  fire pits, or we could use the Common Area outside to cook on the covered Propane Grill area with tons of more eating and seating space, and a propane fire pit with comfortable seating, the kids played on their super cool refurbished Fort Play,  area for hours, a sand box, slides,

       Their mini farm, the kids got to collect fresh Duck and Chicken eggs for breakfast, she has a breakfast/coffee/tea/hot cocoa complimentary set up with cereals, and different mix of foods and beverages to help ourselves to. 

      What a wonderful experience. We will be coming back

      Heavens Little Acre Bed and Breakfast

      Cabin rental no camping

      This is actually a cabin rental facility and they do not offer RV parking or camping. It is on a nice set of land and the owners are very friendly and would make a good rental if you’re tired of camping.

      Diamond M Ranch Resort

      Family Fun!

      General: RV sites, bunkhouse, tent camping, cabins, and historical suites. Additional campsites are available in the pasture during Dip Net season (July 10-31) for Alaska residents. The office/store is a recreation of Gold Rush-era buildings from various towns in Alaska. Sites are FHU. 

      Site Quality: Sites are mostly level. Some are gravel, and some are dirt. We were traveling in a caravan, and many of us had buddy sites (I believe this was to accommodate the influx for dip net season). This was not a problem as we used our 110 extension cord to convert to 30-amp for power. The sites are close together; some have trees providing privacy/separation, but not all of them. 

      Bath/Shower: There are four all-in-one (toilet, sink, shower) units plus laundry in our area of the campground (there is another bathhouse/laundry in another part of the campground). Again, because of the crowds for dip net, there was often a wait for a bathroom, and soap and/or paper towels would run out before the day was over. Not everyone heeded the signs asking campers to make sure shower curtains are closed to prevent flooding! 

      Activities/Amenities: The main amenity is the petting zoo and Matti’s farm tour on Saturday mornings ($5/per person for registered guests or $10 for community members; 50% of the proceeds go to their non-profit Mattis’s Farm, and the other 50% goes toward feeding the animals and permaculture education). At the end of the tour, you can interact with the animals (emus, chickens, goats, rabbits, a turkey). Ronna also leads guided hikes. One of Ronna and Blair’s daughters makes giant and delicious cinnamon rolls from her grandfather’s recipe on Fridays and Saturdays for a donation. There is a viewing deck open 24 hours/day and, on a clear day, you can see views of four of the peaks of the Ring of Fire. There is basketball, pickleball, a playground, and bike rentals. Free WiFi, although the signal is not strong. Also, a fish cleaning station.

      It is obvious that Blair and Ronna and their family members are passionate about Diamond M. Blair and Ronna lead the farm tours, and during our stay, we saw one or both of them around the property.

      Sunrise Resorts | Edgewater Lodge & RV Park

      Right in the city

      I don’t hate this RV Park which is saying a lot. There are 60 sites and this RV park is open from May 15 until Labor Day. You can reserve RV and tent sites online but you must call for cabin rentals.. This is right in the heart of Soldotna and close to anything you might have forgotten.

      Whiskey Point Cabins & RV Park

      Great views and amenities

      Our second time staying here. There is an amazing ocean and volcano view off a common ground area with a picnic table and fire pit. Eagles soar overhead. Sites are close together but have water, electricity, a small table and fire pit. We didn’t stay in the cabins but they look nice and the property, general store, and washing facilities seem well maintained. Recommend for a night or two when visiting Homer.

      Johnson Lake State Recreation Area Campground

      Johnson Lake: Family Camping

      Following the shoreline of Johnson Lake, this tidy little campground makes for a fun summer stop with the family. A boat launch provides water access to anyone looking to play with jet skis, motor boats, or canoes and kayaks. shallow warmer waters provide for good swimming as well.

      Stocked by fish and game; the later summer months can provide good fishing for Rainbow Trout. Both shore and boat fishing can provide success to the right angler. Just gotta bring the right set up!

      A nicely set up day use area is avaIlable nearby as well. Large awnings cover anywhere from 2 to 4 picnic tables providing dry areas. Fire pits and built in BBQ‘s are close by each awning.

      Late June and July finds this campground very busy, especially during hot days when locals are looking to escape the sun. noise levels and lake activity can get pretty high at these times. The rest of the year these issues are less likely.

      One of my favorIte campgrounds growing up, I could be found here most summer days with a lIne in the water or swimmIng. Now a days I use the day use area occasionally for gatherIngs wIth friends and some BBQin. I tend to avoid the campgrounds durring the summer months because of the overcrowding, but late season camping and fishing can be peaceful and quiet.

      Need to knows

      • 51 total spaces.
      • Good for both tent and motor home camping.
      • Well water and dumpsters are provided.
      • Bathrooms are available.

      Whiskey Point Cabins & RV Park

      Outstanding Experience

      Traveling south on AK-1 was busy but straightforward, and the campground was easy to access on the right just before Anchor Point. Since we were going to arrive early, we called ahead to see if we could come in at 12:30 PM instead of their 3:00 PM check-in. They said yes, and check-in was a breeze at the small office, which also sold T-shirts, hats, fishing supplies, and a few sundries. We stayed in Site A, a back-in with FHUs (30 AMP). The gravel/sand area in front of Sites A, B, and C was wide enough for easy maneuvering, though because it had been raining we used 4-wheel drive so our 40’ 5th wheel toy hauler wouldn’t leave ruts. The sites were fairly close together, but not uncomfortably so. What made Sites A–C special was the ocean view from the patios. Site C only fit a short rig. Site A, on the end, also bordered a shared common area where guests could gather to enjoy the water views and sunsets from a high hill perch. Utilities were well placed, with water pressure at 35–40 PSI. Verizon service gave us 2 bars of LTE, while T-Mobile was limited to 1 bar roaming. The campground did not have WiFi, but Starlink had a clear shot thanks to the open sky and trees only along the perimeter. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay—especially the ocean view from Site A.

      Diamond M Ranch Resort

      Farmyard camping

      For starters my children love this campground. It is fun filled with animals, bicycle rentals, basketball court, playground, seasonal berry picking, eagles nest close by, caribou viewing, balcony viewing area, fire rings and fishing is nearby in the Kenai River. The campsites are well groomed with clean bathrooms/shower rooms. The hosts are more than welcoming and make your visit pleasant. There isn’t much to privacy at this campground but it has a nice homey atmosphere. This was nicely located with a fun twist to camping with the animals! We’ve stayed once in the paddock area another in the grass area on the other side. I preferred the open grass area for the children to run around in without animals. I would recommend this campground to families.


    Guide to Kasilof

    Cabin accommodations near Kasilof, Alaska provide year-round access to outdoor recreation in the Kenai Peninsula. Winter cabin options remain available when many campgrounds close for the season, with most properties maintaining plowed access roads from November through April. Temperatures in winter months typically range from 5°F to 25°F, making wood stove heating essential for comfort.

    What to do

    Fishing from cabin properties: Several cabin rentals offer direct water access for fishing. At Scenic View RV Park, guests appreciate the convenient fishing opportunities, with one visitor noting, "Everything topped with spectacular view. Loved it."

    Wildlife viewing: Cabins at Johnson Lake State Recreation Area provide excellent wildlife viewing opportunities. A recent visitor mentioned, "I saw a moose when I got out of my tent in the morning!"

    Winter recreation: Many Kasilof cabins remain open year-round for snow activities. Kenai National Wildlife Refuge cabins are particularly popular for winter adventures, with some accessible by snowmobile when lakes freeze solid.

    Farm experiences: Some properties offer unique agricultural experiences beyond standard cabins. At Diamond M Ranch Resort, families can interact with farm animals while staying in cabins. A visitor shared, "It is fun filled with animals, bicycle rentals, basketball court, playground, seasonal berry picking, eagles nest close by, caribou viewing, balcony viewing area."

    What campers like

    Boat access: Several cabins include watercraft with rental. At Kenai National Wildlife Refuge Cabins, visitors particularly value this feature, with one camper stating, "Only a 1 mile hike in and it comes with a row boat. The lake is very private."

    Effective heating systems: Winter cabin renters frequently mention heating quality. Engineer Lake Cabin receives positive reviews for its heating efficiency during cold months.

    Location convenience: Cabins near Sterling Highway provide easy access to supplies. Alaska Canoe and Campground offers cabins with proximity to gear rental services, as one visitor noted: "You can rent everything from fishing poles and nuts to tent camping equipment and anything you might need for watercraft."

    River proximity: Several cabin rentals sit directly on the Kenai River. Lone Moose Lodge cabins receive praise for their river placement, with one visitor stating, "Cabins, a teepee, rv spots and tent camping. All with public river access. Great place! Can't wait to get back!"

    What you should know

    Seasonal availability varies: While some cabins operate year-round, others have limited seasons. Scenic View RV Park cabin rentals operate from May 1 to September 30, while other properties close after Labor Day.

    Advance booking essential: During peak salmon runs in July and August, cabins typically book 6-12 months in advance. Sunrise Resorts | Edgewater Lodge & RV Park cabins require phone reservations rather than online booking.

    Shower facilities differ significantly: Some cabins include private bathrooms while others utilize shared facilities. At Klondike RV Park & Cottages, shower facilities receive high marks for cleanliness according to multiple reviews.

    Parking logistics: Winter cabin access may require snowmobile or ski transportation. Multiple-vehicle parties should verify parking availability, as some properties limit vehicles per cabin site.

    Activity rentals: Several cabin properties offer equipment rentals for families. Fishing gear, bicycles, and boats are commonly available at additional cost.

    Safety considerations: Cabins with woodstoves require supervision with children. Properties with lake or river access typically don't provide lifeguards, making adult supervision mandatory.
