Great place!

Our stay was amazing! Admittedly we spent little time in the cabin as there is so much to see and do nearby. Cabin was extremely roomy, but a bit disjointed. This would be an amazing place to stay with kids.

Thank you for staying with us in the Bear Den Vacation Home. This building started out as a block-house like cabin, ground floor and a second floor of slightly larger dimensions.. Then over time , five additions were added at ground level This has resulted in an interesting, but functional, floor plan. It is a great place for the kids too, with the foosball table, piano and outdoor games. We look forward to your next visit. John

Anchor Point-Homer AK

Excellent choice for our stay in Anchor Point and a good place to come back and relax after our bear viewing and fishing trips in Homer. Very clean and plenty of room for our group of 6 adults - plenty of room for larger groups in a very quiet location.

nice cabin

It was a nice cabin to stay in. Plenty of space for everyone to comfortably hang out. Woke up to a mom and baby moose in the yard, so that was a big hit for visiting family.

Great place to stay!!!

We had an amazing experience. I would describe the cabin location as serene and beautiful. The cabin was very clean and comfortable.

The property has everything you will need. It is close enough to town. But far enough out that you don’t run into tourists.

We loved this place!

This "cabin" had everything that anyone would ever need. A full kitchen, full sized washer and dryer, multiple bathrooms... even a foosball table! Our only regret is that we only stayed here for a short period of time.

The property was exactly what we needed. It was secluded and spacious. We were fishing out of Homer and needed a location big enough for our group as well as close enough to Homer Spit. The home was stocked with coffee, pancake mix, seasonings, board games and other items you may need. Checking in and out was a breeze. We would stay here again.

The property is very nice, a little closer to the road than I would've liked but nice.

The owner John was wonderful and very accommodating to our needs. The beds were a tad uncomfortable but chocked that up to missing our own beds. We fished the kenai daily by it was a bit of a drive there around an hour
