Welcome to Crazy Bear Lodge on Daniel's Lake.

We know that with all the fun and exciting things to see and do here on the Kenai Peninsula, you can get pretty exhausted by the end of a day. So if you are looking for a quiet, peaceful place to relax, Crazy Bear Lodge on the Kenai Peninsula is where you want to be.

Secluded Lodge on Alaska's Scenic Kenai Peninsula.

Crazy Bear Lodge is nestled along the shores of beautiful Daniel's Lake where the sunrise and sunset views are regarded as awe-inspiring and termed pictorial by some of Alaska's best known nature photographers. The lodge has a large living room/dining area and kitchen, which are common areas. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing your own meals or you can arrange for a gourmet chef to prepare exquisite Alaskan meals for you.

Each of the clean and cozy bedrooms have their own private baths. There are two patio areas, a barbeque for grilling your "catch of the day", and then gather around the fire pit and talk about "the one that got away." Here at Crazy Bear Lodge you can kick back relax and watch the trout raising for a meal on the lake or take the canoe out and test your luck at some wild Alaska rainbow trout fishing.

Photographers and visitors alike enjoy watching the loons diving on the lake, the moose strolling through the yard and the eagles soaring overhead. While you are here you can do as much or as little as you want. Sleep in, enjoy a relaxing cup of coffee on the deck and enjoy the peaceful solitude of this Kenai Peninsula Lodge.

Mornings are considered a special time here on the Kenai. With the long summer days it's always a pleasure to enjoy a leisurely breakfast before setting out for a quiet walk to enjoy all the Alaska wildflowers.

This was our first time at the lodge. We enjoyed meeting with all the guests. Thanks for the fishing. I would not have had this experience if it had not been for you all. I now have photos of a great time. Thanks for the memories.
