The Garden Cabin was spacious, clean and cozy providing a perfect ambiance for relaxation. Shirley and Max were warm and welcoming, always ready to assist with any request. Their attentiveness made us feel valued and at home. To our delight, there was a camp gathering to celebrate the Fourth of July. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with other campers and enjoy the festivities together. read more

Should've reviewed earlier because we had great service here. One of the few places that rents rafts and drift boats for the Kenai. Pick up on time and good suggestions for fishing the river late season. read more

Max and Shirley were exceptional,engaging hosts. Lodging was very reasonable. We chose Sterling because we wanted to fish and it is centrally located between Seward and Homer. We chose ACC by word of mouth, Which worked out nicely! Shirley puts us on the salmon in Sterling and Max the halibut in Homer. Thanks guys, will be back! read more

Visiting from Las Vegas and I have to tell you that Shirley and her younger daughter were just the absolute BEST. I wish we would've met them on day one of our vacation! Fair prices, super accommodating and just good, kind people. Rented kayaks from her and she allowed us to use her vacuum sealer so we could save some money going to a fish processor. She went above and beyond and reminded me that people are still good in these strange times we live in. read more

We are from Arizona and we drove all the way here and Max and Shirley and all the staff were amazing. They treated us like family. All the staff on site work very hard to keep the place clean and organized. We absolutely recommend this campground to any one they are kid and dog friendly . They have lots of toys to rent and offer fishing trips to their guests. Will definitely come back. read more

If I could give this zero stars, I would. My group had a reservation for 6 adults to rent kayaks. This was scheduled a month in advance and was confirmed a few weeks prior to our trip. On the way to the launch site on the day of the reservation, after driving 2.5 hours to get there, we called to confirm one last time and were informed that they did not have a driver for the kayak shuttle and therefore couldn't honor our reservation. When we showed up to the business to regroup and see other possible options to still kayak with them, including towing our own kayaks as asked by the business, the building was closed with a sign on the door that said "gone fishing for the day". It was incredibly frustrating that we were not informed prior to arrival that our reservation was cancelled despite confirming multiple times. After reading reviews by others associated rentals, our concerns were definitely confirmed. Steer clear of this company, look for other options. read more

These guys are awesome!! They hooked us up with three canoes, gave us toys for the kids, umbrellas and a table. They even delivered our canoes to the lake! Thank you so much for the hospitality!!!! read more

- Very friendly service, particularly the young summer workers - The raft for 8 was a lot of fun, although paddling for a mile was a little unexpected - Once we got to the river, it was a blast to see the wildlife, the fisherman, and avoid all of the normal river obstacles - Good equipment at decent prices read more

Our group of 6 guys from PA just got back from staying here. We stayed in the Kylie cabin. The cabin was clean. No problems with WIFI and TV. We watched the World cup games after fishing for sockeye on the russian river. We cooked in both the kitchen and outdoor grill. I was extremely happy with their service. Shirley was great. It was nice doing business with her. Max took us on a great fishing trip out of seward. Do not miss out on this trip. It was the highlight of my Alaska experience. James - Norristown, PA read more

I'm very glad we tent camped here. I have a CPAP and they made sure to get me an RV site with electric. The facilities were very clean and the helpfulness of the owners made a lasting impression on me. I would stay here again if I were in the Sterling area. read more

I requested suggestions for renting gear (if possible) for the duration of my time in Alaska. Following the advice of the air charter company (review located at that specific vendor's page at Yelp) A.C.C. to procure gear. The reservation for the gear was made in February for a trip in July with the dates of the trip confirmed in February (dates written on the invoice & confirmed in repeated follow-up e-mails by A.C.C. staff). The poor rating is due to the following: -the staff was confused regarding the equipment rental and rental duration and pricing and the owner was nowhere to be seen--two (02) different reservations were on file for the same gear and same person(s)--one for my original duration and one for four (04) weeks duration; -equipment that was repeatedly confirmed for rent was not available (saw & lantern)--this resulted in additional unanticipated costs to purchase in town; -the coolers were not coolers designed for the extended stays in the wilderness repeatedly stated to the rental company--the Owner made it clear the coolers would be 10-11 day coolers; the coolers were 4 day coolers; also the coolers were dirty inside/unwashed and were cleaned by me prior to leaving the A.C.C. premises; -the collapsible water container was dirty inside with dirty water inside and it was cleaned by me prior to leaving the A.C.C. premises--it did not leak...so, yay for them; -the dishes/eating utensils were dirty and were cleaned by me prior to leaving the A.C.C. premises; --Upon arrival to the destination: --setting up bed, one sleeping pad would not remain inflated--I stopped after affixing five (05) patches as I ran out of patching material...the pad did not remain inflated throughout each night; --upon setting up the water filter, it was either missing parts or it was mixed-up with parts from a different filter--it was able to be used but required resourcefulness...so, yay for me; --the camp chairs were adequate, but not intended for repeated use and absolutely not worth the rental price--cheaper versions could be picked-up in town and either left at the destination for future occupants or donated to the air charter company for future use/rentals; and --the float-tube was not a float tube intended for use by a grown man; the tube would adequately support the weight of a teenage boy, but not that of a man--It would not support my weight or the weight of my travel companion. The stove worked as promised...so, yay for them. Never had the opportunity to use the bearspray...so, yay for the bears. As a result of the issues summarized above, I do not recommend A.C.C. nor will I be using them in the future. I will be bringing my own gear/picking it up at the air charter and donating for the air charter's use/future rental upon completion of my trip. Of note, all original e-mails and original invoices are saved in hard print-outs as well a digital form should any follow-up be made after this review regarding the types of equipment booked and confirmed dates/durations. read more

This is a great little campground. We always spend a day here on our annual Kenai peninsula trip. It has full hook ups so we use it as a day to recharge and relax after a few days of dry camping between portage and hidden lake. The RV park is tight, but does not have the parking lot feel to it. The hosts are super nice and the facilities are always clean. Also, the price is much cheaper than the parks closer to soldotna/Kenai. read more

I am a first timer in Alaska.. & This is by far the best trip!! My family & I are currently staying in the Amy Cabin and we gotta say we absolutely love it. Its perfect and roomy!!
