Best Homer Experience

We had all we needed for a family of 7 and a baby! The view was amazing and we got to see the resident Moose! The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. The living room had cozy places for all of us to sit, which made it so nice to hang out at the end of the day. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We love Homer.

Beautiful Scenery

As soon as you drive in, you notice the beauty. The moment you walk in youre captured by majestic views of the mountains. The house was clean, organized, and had everything you needed. The spit is only a few minutes away and theres also other cute shops by the location. The property manager also has great communication skills. I will come back!! It was an amazing experience!

Stunning views

My family of six adults (mom/dad & 2 adult kids spouses) enjoyed this home, the views are breathtaking, the bedrooms being spread out over 3 floors was nice, each couple had their own space and bathroom. One evening we were graced by a mama moose and her baby in the yard, and again the next morning. My only complaint was the lack of blackout shades, but we made it work thanks to what I assume was a previous guest leaving black garbage bags with tape in one of the cabinets. This house has everything you need and worked great for my family.

Heavenly Homer Weekend

Homer did not disappoint, and the Kachemak cottage was the perfect place to stay to enjoy all Home has to offer. The cottage is beautifully decorated, fully appointed, offers space for many visitors, and has a view of Kachemak bay that is unbeatable. Highly recommend using this as your home base when visiting Homer.

Beautiful house with beautiful views. Our family of 7 had plenty of room.

The home is very inviting and well appointed. Enjoyed the expansive views of Kachemak Bay and Homer from the deck every morning and evening. We liked being away from town but yet only a few minutes away when needed.

We loved this home

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home was beautiful, and the view was incredible. Everyone had their own space, and the location was great. The beds were comfy, and we loved playing cards at the dining room table. Wish we could have stayed longer. There was even a bald eagle that hung out on the roof!

Exceeded expectations

Photos don't do this place justice. The view is incredible, the home was more spacious than expected, and completely spotless clean. It was the perfect spot to relax after a few long days exploring in and around Homer. The hosts were prompt with all communications. I would absolutely stay at this place and book with these hosts again.

Beautiful home with a gorgeous view!

This house was amazing with a gorgeous view! I could have stayed there longer and would love to go back. For planning purposes, if you are traveling with someone with mobility issues, the main floor bedroom was great but the bed was too high for my in-laws which meant they had to use the space in the lower level of the house. I would definitely book this house again though and highly recommend it to others!

Simply Incredible

We were blown away by the location of this property. The sweeping views of Kachemak from the deck out front and from the main area in the front of the house was simply incredible. The property was immaculate and exactly as the listing stated. We loved the personal touch of goodies from local vendors. This cottage provided everything, and more, that we needed for our wonderful stay in Homer.

Excellent place to stay and wow, what a view.

Great place to stay. Comfortable for 4 adults when it came to sitting in the living room. The kitchen was well equipped with cookware and spices. Bring your own coffee though. There were 2 of the 4 beds that allowed for a darker room to sleep, if that matters to you. The view was work $1M, very nice to sit at the house and enjoy the Homer feel.
