Alaska Lake + Lodge at Longmere

Our stay was enjoyable overall as the duplex was well decorated and cozy. The property had a bbq, firepits, and picnic tables. Parking lot was a large gravel lot. The manager was kind upon her visit and told us the property rental just opened so operations were still needed some catching up. They tried to make it as comfy as possible but there were some concerns that we wanted to address for future guests. The tv did not operate at all to entertain the family and fixing it ourselves was a problem as the tv did not connect to the property wifi system. The listing noted a washer and dryer available but were told by management that only the upstairs unit had an accessible/operable facility. And the kitchen did not have a microwave. The management staff was not on-site for immediate issues and texting/calling took some time for a reply- especially during check-in which took almost 30 min to an hour for a reply with multiple calls. The management did visit to change a dead smoke alarm battery and were notified of the concerns. We were told they would clean up the lone washer room in our unit and repair the tv but never returned. Furthermore, the property sits along the highway which can be a noise issue for sensitive ears but it was not too much of an issue for us. Overall, the stay was fun but I hope the management can use these as constructive feedback as they get up to speed with operations allowing guests to fully appreciate the property and its amenities.

We enjoyed our 30 day stay at this property Lou and Christina were awesome they were always trying to make our trip better! The rooms are large very nice and very clean. There were 5 guys in one room and the room was pretty spacious 2 queens and we put a full sized blow up mattress in the room as well and still had plenty of room it’s a great place if your traveling with a family. It’s 10 to 15 minutes to the Kenai River/Swiftwater Park, Bings and the same for Soldotna. They had a couple of BBQ’s that you can use as well as a couple fire pits on the property. The only thing I can think of that is a bit of road noise as far as downsides. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there in the future.

Check in time still cleaning room

Location outside of Soldotna. Didn’t quite expect it to be right on the Sterling Hwy, though.

Property not managed onsite when we got there. Building construction looked new-ish, but walls were so thin and layout so bad we heard highway traffic constantly through the stay. Could not open windows for ventilation. Still ended up hearing fellow guests as if they were sharing our room! The tub was deep with high sides making entry hazardous for showers. On top of that, it was completely slippery — had to throw a towel on the bottom just to stand up. Not sure why they put seniors on the second floor w/ no elevator. The stairs were not only high, the railings were unsteady and not easy to grasp. Heard one of the other guests complain about the same issue.

Our accommodations were wonderful. Beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean and comfortable. The location was great. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay special!

The location is not great, near the Highway so you hear cars all day long. The insulation of the rooms is very poor, you hear everything from the other rooms.. tv’s, snoring, etc. Pictures were deceiving… make sure you know not every room has a kitchen only some for a lot more money than the single rooms.

This is a wonderful newly built motel stay! It is absolutely worthy of 5 or more stars. The bed and pillows are THE most comfortable I've ever experienced, and I spend nearly 50+ nights a year at Marriotts around the world, including the JW Marriott. The room is neatly appointed with an uncluttered look, open spaciousness, and tasteful decorating. Smart remote management is minutes away should you need anything. Very well run operation. Highly recommended for those of you needing a stay in the Soldotna area, a mere 5 minutes away.

Bathroom door is sticking. Need a stand for luggage. No dressers Refrigerator too small. Room very clean Bed mattress is too soft and has low spot. Parking lot is loose gravel. Overall I think I will stay again for another vacation if not for fishing.

beautiful and upgraded place!

We enjoyed our stay in the 2 queen unit- it was clean, a nice size and the managers of the property were attentive to any questions or needs that came up. Having said that, you should be aware there are no laundry facilities UNLESS you stay in one of the larger 2 bedroom units. This was not evident on the website and several guests asked about laundry. We were lucky we’d done laundry at the facility we stayed at just before arriving. Having said that I would absolutely stay here again.
