This was absolutely the BEST place we have stayed in Homer (or anywhere actually).. VERY VERY nice view and property. Spacious & comfortable. Will definitely try and stay here again - We plan on coming back next year :)
Beautiful, large, multi-level home that accommodated our big family quite comfortably. It was cozy and very clean. Tons of extra towels and linens. Thank you!
Our group of nine ranged from 9-61, and this place was perfect for us! The view was unbeatable and very convenient to the Spit and downtown Homer. Highly recommend!

Thank you for the feedback. Happy you enjoyed our home.
One of the best properties we have ever rented. It had everything plus a fantastic view and very close to everything. Enough beds for everyone. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
The Homer house was fully loaded with linens, dishes, BBQ, appliances, spices, laundry detergent and even luggage racks. The house was very clean and communication with the owners was good.Some lawn games would have been fun.The view was AMAZING!!!
Our group of 14 fit well in this great multi-story house. The house was well equipped and nicely cleaned. The view of the mountains across Kachemak Bay is stunning. We will definately return if in the Homer area in the future.
This was a perfect fit for our large group. Plenty of sleeping space and room for everyone. House had everything we needed. We would definitely come back again. Great view and close to the Harbor.

Thank you for the feedback. Pleased you enjoyed our home and Homer.
We spent 4 days in Homer for my Sister’s Celebration of Life. Our accommodation were excellent as we were a large group and had our 92 year old mother with us. Having the lower level made it so she did not need to climb stairs except to shower in a walk in. The location was perfect as it was between the celebration venue and my brother in law’s house. A very war and welcoming home.
The weekend was blessed with awesome weather. We loved the view from the deck and the way the hot water seemed to keep up with all the showers. The house was clean and comfortable. The hosts were easy to get along with and responsive to our concerns above and beyond what is required. Loved it all. Thank you!

Alicia - thank you very much for the kind review. We're pleased you enjoyed our home and had a lovely weekend.
This home is situated so it overlooked the Homer spit. Everything is available, hiking, fishing, shopping, wildlife viewing, dining, local theater groups. There was things to do for all 11 of the family members in my group.The home was exceptional. Extensively outfitted with everything you could possibly need to cook gourmet meals. Bathrooms were great. We had 11 in our group and there was no complaints about hot water for showers as is usually an issue with a group this large. I have been doing VRBO's for a few years and this has to be the best experience ever. Thank you to the hosts for the cornucopia of amenities available in the house. Outstanding cannot properly describe this property or the comfort it provided for our group.
We were very impressed with how equipped the house was. We had 11 adults and we never ran out of silverware and the knives were even sharp! The house reminded me of going to your parent's house to cook and they had everything you needed; bowles, vegetable peeler, crockpot, even 2 ovens....wait, also two kitchens! It was really great! We love to cook as a family and eat what we catch. We ate our beautiful King Salmon and cooked it on the BBQ.
Amazing views! Gas fireplace and the house was well located to get into town and the Spit easily.
Sometimes when you rent a vacation house you feel they supply the bare minimum. Not this one! You can tell a lot of thought went into making it comfortable.
Much thanks to the owners! We enjoyed our time in Homer, and the comforts of this home was a contributor to that.
