Cooper Landing Boat Launch

It's a nicely kept launch with a boardwalk and information signage about the local area and wildlife. This place is a MUST S STOP on your way to Kenai.

Beautiful! Seen several bald eagles. Caught rainbow trout white fish and salmon. Catch and release only ! Great place for pictures and wildlife viewing.

Beautiful views and a great place to launch your boat or sit and have a picnic.

The parking lot is easy to use and access. The ramp is quick and then we waited for the guys to drop off the cars for the other end of our Kenai river float. There are lots of rocks for kids to throw into the river and guides are taking out tourists throughout the day. The outhouses are decent for the necessity. It is a beautiful setting. The river was great and floating down it, we had some fun in a few rapids and were able to relax and chat most of the way!

The landing/boat launch is a state site and requires a parking fee of $5.00 to park for the day. Once parked, there are two short board walks that lead to either the boat launch/bridge area or a small overlook of the water and forest. The area around the water is small and not much for recreation. If you’re after a beautiful view and a nice place to see, Cooper Landing has some of the most beautiful blue water to behold!
