The Moose River Site is a prehistoric archaeological site in Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. Located near the confluence of the Kenai and Moose Rivers near Sterling, it is apparently a camp or village site that was used as a fishing camp about 1500 years ago. The site includes seven house pits and three food cache pits.[3]
The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[2]
