“Great Hosts, Great accommodations, Great time. Taking wonderful memories home. Judy’s delicious sea food chowder, rhubarb cobbler ( yum) and stories of the Marlow’s early years in Alaska. Breath taking views of the Kenai–right outside your cabin door. Had a fantastic halibut trip out of Seward — Thanks Neil.  Thank you for taking time to point out places of interest and helping some fly fishing folks find their private oasis (Fish Lake) Looking forward to returning soon.  P.S. River, you are the sweetest and most stubborn doggie. We’ll finish that game of fetch when we return!“
