Prowhouse at Saltwater Suites - Homer, Alaska Lodging

Homer Alaska Lodging

On a secluded acre of lush green looking out directly onto Kachemack Bay and the awesome mountains and glaciers beyond, we offer our Saltwater Suites, featuring the elegant Prowhouse. (See our comprehensive "Owner's Website" by Clicking the Link, 3 lines above the 12 pictures below.

At the outset, adults guests are preferred. This is not a perfectly safe surroundings for wandering, curious children because a 200' steep, dangerous cliff is 200' away. Besides, our amenities are not designed with children in mind.

However, our park-like, rather secluded property offers three elegant separately keyed, culinary-friendly units; all with marvelous views and secluded privacy. Each unit has it's own Aquos Flat-screen TV,(Unit A has 2 of them) powered by Dish Direct Satellite, complete with HBO. Unit A has it's own DVR providing easy recording of your favorite programs while you're out fishing, and special offerings including a load of mixed music channels. For lengthy stays in Units B or C, we will install a DVD set.

All units are serviced with a wireless internet signal. However, Unit A also features an ethernet, broadband high -speed connection free of charge. With adequate notice and at a nominal charge, high speed Broadband may be accessed in the other units with a Modem supplied by the phone company.

We try to keep all our units as a non-allergic environment. All living room sofas & love-seats are upholstered with comfortable leather. Laminate floors are preferred. All mattresses are anti-allergic wrapped. Neither pets or smoking is permitted.

Unit A, the premier unit with six picture windows at the Prow, and six more transom windows at the peak, has 2 bedrooms (one King bed, one Queen)and 2 baths, with exquisite panoramic views and a most comfortable living quarters for four adults. This unit has a 46" TV plus a 37" sister set for the dining area or master bedroom..

On the lower floor of the Prowhouse is Unit B, which has all new amenities (2007)like a tile-marble bath, a kitchen with Corian Counters, packed with everything you need for a home cooked meal. The living room has matching leather upholstered reclining sofa and chair plus a wood rocker- all new. The bedroom has two antique oak pieces, a laptop secretary and the queen bed is also new, with perfect mattress comfort. The latest model 42'LCD Flat-screen TV is provided.

Unit C, the top unit in the smaller house, is a spacious one bedroom apartment complete with full kitchen, its own W/D, leather reclining love-seat with chair, and a private deck, with breakfast table & chairs, having the best bay views in Homer. Moreover, unit C, except for a few items, is as well-equipped with full amenities as our newer 1BR unit,including its own, and new, 42" Flat-screen, Satellite TV and private telephone. However, the unit was built eight years ago, has carpets instead of laminate floors, is separately heated with an oil monitor, no dishwasher. Rates here are discounted, but the comfort level is at least the same. A real good deal.

Our rates, in comparison to like guest units in Homer, are now significantly lower. That is because we are the new guys here and attempting to properly launch our reputation. However, renters who now take advantage of these low rates, can be assured that the same low rates they pay now, will be honored when they return in coming years.

To ensure your reservation within one week, just call and provide your credit card information. (We accept Visa, Master Card & American Express) However, if you wish to reserve a unit, and you call, E-mail or write, more than a week in advance, we require a deposit equal to 25% of the cost of the intended stay, in order to hold the unit for you. You may pay the deposit with your credit card if you call, or use the mails to forward a money order or personal check. The deposit is, of course, applicable to your final bill.
