About this property

Delightful Historic House In The Heart Of Downtown - Walk To Everything!

Just a short walk to so many of the things our wonderful Alaskan town has to offer - gourmet restaurants, sandwich shops, Thai, Sushi, pizzerias, characterful bars, cheerful cafés with locally roasted coffee, art galleries & pottery shops featuring the myriad of talented local artists who call Homer home; The Pratt Museum, the Islands & Oceans Visitor Center, a movie theater - even the beach ... all within striking distance of this charming house.
A short drive away is the famous Homer Spit which leads you to the harbor and all the fabulous fishing & nature activities we offer here.

Completely rebuilt and remodeled, this historic house was saved by its owners as a piece of Homer's history. It has everything you will need for a most comfortable stay - a brand new full kitchen to prepare your freshly caught fish, two bedrooms each with their en suite bathrooms, and a guest restroom if you have extra people. One bedroom has two extra long twin beds that can be made in to a King bed. The other has a Queen bed. Its spacious deck is warm and sunny and has a view of the Bay and mountains beyond. Though right in town, it has a lovely private, woodsy feel. Don't be surprised to find a moose napping under the trees!

This cottage is adorable and homey. It is convenient to everything, the beds were comfy and there is a partial view of the glaciers and bay. It felt very private and quiet despite not being far from town. We highly recommend this home.

The house was perfect and Victoria was extremely informative on things to do in her town. It was so nice being able to walk across the street after our long drive to grab a bite to eat. We throughly enjoyed sitting outside on the deck enjoying the view.

Nice interior with large front windows, several bathrooms and pleasant landscaping. Several nearby dining options including coffee and a diner right across the street , and convenient to the Spit. Quiet off-street setting but there was some late night noise from a local bar down the street.

The house was in a great location. Comunication was excellent. The big picture window were beautiful! Very comfortable. We could not find the coffee although the filters were there so I am sure the host didn't notice there was no coffee left. No big deal, we headed across the street for breakfast and coffee. Overall we would stay again! I wish we had more time!!
