About this property

LOVELY SECLUDED STUDIO - Two miles from Soldotna!

  • Bear Paw Studio Retreat is located on a beautifully secluded 20 acre private forest, with only a two mile drive to Soldotna boasting an array of coffee shops, grocery and specialty shops and restaurants. Bear Paw is located in the lower level of our home, has a private entrance, designated parking and plenty of parking for tenant boats or extra vehicles. With king and queen beds in the sleeping area, Bear Paw Studio comfortably accommodates two to four guests. Bear Paw Studio is equipped with modern kitchen appliances and lovely Alaskan decor. Black out window coverings provide sufficient darkness during our bright summer months allowing our guests to get a good night's sleep. There is a large freezer exclusively for guest use, which is particularly useful during fishing season. Fish cleaning, however, is prohibited on the premises, due to potential attraction of bears. During the summer months, Bear Paw is a perfect fisherman’s retreat. In winter, when snow is abundant, we maintain several cross country ski trails and have a fabulous sledding hill for those who desire snowy adventures. Bear Paw has something for everyone traveling to the Kenai or Soldotna area.

I was in town for work and this place was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet after my shift. Even working nights and sleeping during the day, i was not bothered at all. Place has everything you need except groceries. The host is super friendly and takes very good care of you.

Wonderful Place to Stay

The studio was easy to find and located in a secluded area just outside of Soldotna. We were close enough to town for supplies but was also able to enjoy the quietness of the woods. The studio was new, clean, comfortable and well appointed. Jackie was gracious and generous. We hope to stay here again and recommend it to others.

Great Place to Stay

Jackie and Jayson went above and beyond to make sure our stay was a wonderful experience. We were contacted prior to our arrival to see if there was anything we needed in particular that they could provide for us, which was extremely thoughtful. The property was very clean and well laid out and it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Jackie and Jayson made the stay so nice with their hospitality and were very welcoming. We highly recommend this place and plan to stay here again next time we are in the area. Thank you again Jackie and Jayson!

Such a lovely place

This property is an efficiency apartment on the ground floor of a lovely home. The owners are right upstairs and completely available to answer questions and assist with problems. In addition to the apartment, there are 29 acres of property, and I loved wandering around in the quiet and beauty. I would go there again anytime. Love. Love. Love!!

Cozy and welcoming rental

I drove down from Eagle River with my two kids for a football game and was so happy to find this place. It is conveniently located near town but is in an area that is quiet and secluded. While we were not there for fishing, there were things on site to accommodate that need. I really enjoyed all the personal touches in the studio and the owner was so helpful with directions around town and was very accommodating with our need for a later check out. I have already recommended this place to friends who often go to this area for fishing. If we ever have a need to stay the night in Soldotna again, this will be the first place I check!

We are very new to VRBO, but I made a fantastic choice when I chose Jackie's lovely studio. She sent me directions and we ended up texting and finding out about each other. I felt like she was a friend from the beginning and she went above and beyond to make our stay as wonderful as possible. She got us flowers because we were celebrating our anniversary as well as a bottle of wine and local treats. I am obsessed with moose and she made sure that I tried all the places possible to see them and boy did we. The best one was close to where she lived. We got some of the most fantastic photos of this huge Mama moose that we later found out had a baby. Everything in our room was so very comfortable. We had access to a grill to cook some fantastic fish that Jackie shared with us. I highly recommend anyone staying at any property that Jackie hosts. Jackie and her husband went above and beyond for us and we are very grateful because this was a very special trip for us.
