Great place.

We had a great time here. We stayed 4 days and everything was awesome. Owner came over and chatted for a while which was nice. We had a view of Cook Inlet and the Iliamna volcano right from the window.

Excellent Homer getaway!

My family and I loved staying here! The location was perfect, nice and private and absolutely gorgeous views of the mountains and bay. It’s only 18 minutes away from the Spit which was perfect. Everything was very clean and had the essentials that you would need. Kent was a great host and we would definitely stay here again!

Just a short drive into Homer with a beautiful view of Cook Inlet, St. Augustine Island, Mt. Illiamna, and mountains of Kachemak State Park. Quiet and private with plenty of space and parking. Host is great to work with and responsive to any needs, local information, etc. The Roku TV is nice too!

Peaceful, comfy, affordable, with an awesome view!

The property was a great place to come home to after a day of fishing, or just seeing the sights. It was comfortable, peaceful, and the view was awesome. The owner, Kent, lives nearby, he's a very nice guy and he was very responsive to requests. Checkout was the easiest I've ever experienced. For the price, this property can't be beat. I'm so glad we found it!

We loved this house: close to Homer but pretty secluded. Saw lots of wild life: cranes, young moose was hanging out outside of the kitchen window. House was well stocked, everything we needed was there. Thank you Ken!

Wonderful log cabin

A hand built log cabin. Lots of room to spred out. Close to Homer but still far enough away. Kitchen is adequately equipped with nice appliances. Not much wild life to report, bunnies and sandhill cranes. Could use some blackout shades in the summer,LOL.

Trip of a lifetime

The view was spectacular, the cabin was very clean and well attended to. Plenty of surrounding trees that resulted in not seeing any neighbors or traffic. The TV and internet was a bonus item that we were not expecting in a remote area. The property manager contacted us right away and made us feel welcome and left us feeling special.

The views were stunning and the house was wonderful. The host was easy to contact and the house was clean. The cost was great for the amenities. The only two things I would add would be black out curtains and more pillows. It was a great place to explore Homer.

The property was very large inside, however as senior citizens it would have been nice to know there was no bathroom on the main floor. Also the BBQ grill is a rusted inside and the outdoor furniture is 2 plastic chairs. Half of the furniture looks like it has been around past it prime. The cooking utensils are mismatched and there’s not a sharp among them. The upstairs bathroom shower has very little water pressure. The views are spectacular and the location is great.

Homer 40th Wedding Anniversary trip

We had a wonderful time. The cabin has a beautiful view of the ocean. Kent was a great host and very accommodating. We booked our 1/2 day fishing trip with Inlet Fishing excursion. They were the most reasonable. A big shout out to Patrick who is a refreshing bundle of energy. The captain and crew made sure we all caught our limit. Amazing vacation!! I would love to do it all over again. Kent, hopefully we will see you next year.
