Things To Do
Kenai River Fishing
The town of Soldotna (and nearby Kenai) is built on the shores of the lower Kenai River. The Kenai river offers opportunities for Salmon, Rainbow Trout, and Dolly Varden fishing throughout August/September. The wedding venue has a walking trail which leads to the river, and if you book lodging through the Lodge at Lone Moose you'll gain access to free fishing gear, a fish cleaning station, and deep freezer storage.
Offshore Fishing
Homer (the Halibut Fishing Capital of the World) is only a 1.5 hour drive south from Soldotna. There are plenty of charters that offer off-shore fishing trips for halibut, rockfish, salmon, and more. Tony, Hannah, and her family have all had great experiences with North Country Charter.
