Cannery to lodge
Close attention to detail took a century-old cannery and turned it into a premier lodge for every occasion. Stepping into The Cannery Lodge feels like stepping back in time without compromising on all the modern luxuries you need to have a comfortable stay, whether you are coming for a fishing adventure or a relaxing wilderness getaway.
The lodge provides a personal touch that makes every stay and every event extra special. Whether you’re planning a wedding or a corporate getaway, we have the space for you. Our grounds feature ocean and river frontage, the potential for miles of skiing or hiking trails depending on the time of year, an air strip, helipad and even a boat ramp, dock and boat storage.
Alaska spirit
If you live in Alaska or you’ve been to Alaska before, you already know all about the spirit of Alaska. It’s the attitude that you can sense in every person you meet and every place you visit. It’s a mental toughness and eagerness take on life in the Last Frontier. When you visit The Cannery Lodge, you’ll find that the Alaska spirit is alive and well. The very rooms you’ll stay in are jam-packed with Alaska history, connecting you to the unique past of Kenai, Alaska, and the people who originally settled here.
Our experienced staff is full of that very spirit and they want to share it with you. Talk to any of us about the best places to fish, hike or adventure in and around the Kenai.
