The bluff is eroding at a rate of three feet a year due to waves and storms at the mouth of the Kenai River.

The house is on the back of a truck for now before it’s planted in its new home next week, on Mission Ave. in Kenai.

That part of the bluff, in Kenai’s Old Town, is eroding at a rate of three feet a year due to waves and storms at the mouth of the Kenai River. The city of Kenai is planning on stabilizing a section of that bluff, including the old Hermansen-Miller house site. It’s quite the undertaking for one of the city’s historical landmarks. The Hermansen-Miller house was built around 1916 and is considered the first frame house in Kenai. Everything built before it was made out of logs.

Back then, the Hermansen-Miller House was Kay’s Lunch, where Miller would go for ice cream and help the owner. When Fred heard she liked the place, he bought it for her. “Father Thompson, our priest, faced the people over the counter,” Miller wrote in the book. “Later, when I leased the ice-cream parlor out, we had Catholic mass in Kenai Joe’s bar.”
