We'd stay there again. Great value for the room rate—incredible restaurant in the building. The staff was above and beyond, wanting to be of service and proud of where they work.
Nice quiet multiple room lodge with a community kitchen. The only hiccup was that I didn't notice that check in is at their other property five miles away, despite it being noted in the reservation confirmation.
VERY clean and quiet had and open kitchen too share with all the fixing to cook what I had dinner breakfast the bed I felt very comfortable too had own bathroom room to each room just had to wait for the hot water to warm up in the shower but overall I give it a 5 🌟
This is a nice place to stay, conveniently located near the highway. Patrons should know that there is no front desk and the key must be picked up at a separate location prior to entering your room. Not a huge inconvenience, but it was unexpected. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. I slept well.
Basic hunting lodge. Nothing fancy. Clean and beds good.

Post reservation processing by Expedia is flawed. Selection of Soldotna Inn as destination resulted in room at Soldotna Lodge, 5 miles remote from Soldotna. Check-in requirement sent to me stated that photo id upload prior to arrival was required, however there was no provision to do that. Calling the facility revealed that there is no check-in desk at the Soldotna Lodge. Visitors must go to Soldotna Inn to check-in. Soldotna Inn does not have staff on duty after 11 PM, however there is a phone on the wall of the entry to the Inn for calling a staff member for after hours check-in. Convoluted, not smooth.
I liked staying at this lodge, but did not like driving the extra 5 miles to check-in at the hotel in town. The lodge would be a great place for a friends or family reunion. There was a large common area and kitchen, but also microwave and fridge in the room. I think I was the only one there when I stayed.
I really liked the price. It's agreat idea with a community Kitchen. It was clean but easy to bring dirt in. Maybe a rug to wipe your feet when you first walk in would be good.
Nice place but very loud communal space and can hear people in the rooms next to you. Cleanliness was poor and blood on the floor in the shower upon arrival

Clean but had to go to another spot to get clean towels and extra room coffee, there for six nights no one cleaned room!!
The lodge and provided rooms were as advertised, clean and pretty comfortable. Common kitchen was acceptable but would benefit from provision of more dinnerware and small appliances. The only real drawback was that the wifi in my room sucked, as it was essentially unavailable due to the weakness of the signal.
Room had microwave and refrigerator but no tv. Bathroom was clean. There was an unexpected tax that added to an already extreme price. Checking in at a location 5 miles away was not convenient.
Mold and filth everywhere. The bathroom was nasty. Stained black on the floor and pink mold in the corners. The bathroom door had black mold on both sides. It’s less than 1 star. We stayed only ONE of our seven nights because of its scuzzy condition.
Had to check in at a different location, miles away. Directions for check said " they would e-mail directions for check in". That e-mail never showed up. A note on the entry door said "call to check in. When called the receptionist said we had to come back into town to another hotel to check in. This would not have been a problem if they had told us before we got to the lodge.

Dissatisfied
Nice location with easy access. The lady at the Soldotna Inn at checkin wasn’t very friendly. The main area at the lodge stunk and needed a good cleaning. As for our room the floors were dirty not swept. There was a used bandaid on the bathroom floor. It is a rustic Alaskan lodge and we like rustic, we don’t like dirty and stinky!
There was a leak in the toilet and it kept going off every 20 minutes. It kept us up all night. It was too hot in the room. There was an extremely high charge for early check in and late check out.
I will not stay there again, not will I recommend to anyone.

We realize that they just bought this property, but the floors were dirtly, even in the bedrooms. There wasn't a lot of utensils for us to use to eat or cook with. We liked the idea of the kitchen and purchased food, but we had trouble cooking everything due to the fact that there wasn't much for utensils. Someone came into the facility at about 2 am and made a lot of noise and there was no one around to keep them quiet. Someday, we think this will be very nice, but they definitely need to do some work
