About The Alaska Dream

Our family of six has been living the Alaska Dream on the world famous Kenai River for nearly 25 years, enjoying the bounty of the land & sea in everything we do! All of our children were born in Alaska, and both of us have lived here for 40++ years. We love sharing the Alaska Dream with visitors from around the corner and around the world and we especially love to help families and children catch their 1st Alaska salmon, rainbow trout or dolly varden and learn how to care for it all the way through the process of cooking it in delicious gourmet Alaska fashion. Enjoy reading our Alaska Fishing Report, Cooking Alaska Fish & Game, Alaska Photo of the Week and other sections of our website The Alaska Dream and we hope to have the chance to help you experience YOUR Alaska Dream someday too!
