Stunning Panoramic View Overlooking Homer Spit and Kachemak Bay
Bayview Vacation Home in Homer, Alaska invites you to experience unobstructed panoramic view. It sits atop a hillside overlooking downtown, Beluga Lake, Homer airport, Kachemak Bay, Homer Spit, Kenai Mountains and beautiful glaciers. The view from our house is very colorful, inspiring and ever-changing. Snow-capped mountains, green forests, glowing yellow meadows during sunset, and a sea of clouds along the blue bay are just some of the stunning views you can see during the day. At night, you can see the street lights sparkling on the Spit and the town. Even during rainy days, you will enjoy enchanting views of reflecting water droplets.
Our home was custom built in 2003 and faces nearly one acre of wild flower gardens. The house has a living area of 3,200 square feet, divided into upper and lower levels. In the upper level, the living room has vaulted high ceilings and huge panoramic windows built into the entire front wall. The windows allow you to soak in the views of the curved Spit, mountains and gleaming glaciers formed across the bay.
The master bedroom has one queen bed and one full bathroom equipped with a Jacuzzi bathtub. You can walk to the deck from the master bedroom or just lie down on the bed to enjoy the beautiful view.
The second bedroom has one queen size bed and one window. There is also one sofa bed for extra visitors and another bathroom near the entrance. Visitors sleeping on the sofa bed will feel like they are being embraced by the mountains in the dimming sunset. The spacious kitchen and dining area has a sliding door which leads to the deck to enjoy the spectacular views. Additionally, the upper level is equipped with a washer and dryer for your convenience.
For privacy, a separate entrance deck leads to the lower level. There is also an indoor stairway leading to the lower level. The lower level has a living room with big windows overlooking the view and it contains two big bedrooms. One room has one queen-size bed and the other has two full-size beds. Both rooms have large windows to view the Spit and Kenai mountains. The lower level kitchen and dining area was newly built in 2008. The kitchens in each level are well equipped with all the necessary amenities for you to enjoy cooking and dining.
We purchased this lovely home in 2008 for our retirement and furnished it with the finest new furniture for your comfort. We also provided one 65" and one 42” wide-screen HDTV, high speed internet, and cable/satellite TV for your entertainment. Our home sits on a private street where you can enjoy the serene wilderness, but easily get to town and the Spit within a few minutes drive. We have 3 security cameras. One is on the side of the house facing the parking area and the others are on the outside of the shed. They will be on during your stay.
Our house is the best for you to enjoy your vacation in Homer. Here are the features which you can not find from other places. * Million-dollar's panoramic view, overlooking Homer Spit and Kachemak bay. * A few minutes drive to the town, restaurants, Homer Spit and etc. * Two big living rooms and two complete kitchens and dining areas.

The place was just as advertised. The views are absolutely bananas. They have several different house rules that are clearly listed but it's nothing that I wouldn't do at my own house. Great place to stay in Homer.
This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed. We would definitely stay again. Our family of 3 teens and grandparents had plenty of room and all enjoyed the property. The view can't be beat. Very close to our fishing charter on the spit and all activities we did while in Homer. Excellent stay!
We picked this house for its amazing views and it certainly delivered! There are no blackout shades, so if you are visiting in the summer and are sensitive to light, don't forget your eye mask. Plenty of space, and we loved the quiet neighborhood - only neighbor we could hear was a wonderful Bald Eagle nesting nearby!
Wonderful, everyone loved it, seems owner adds owner fees beyond what was described. Was adding to my total after everything was paid. Keep it simple and transparent! Awesome location! All seven of us loved the view and the quiet and the eagles.

You should have read our email communications more carefully. Everything was explained clearly in the emails. It was regarded with the changes you made with extra people fee for extra night after you paid. If you still can’t understand it, please call vrbo for assistance.
Very spacious! Perfect for 6 adults and 2 kids! Plus room to spare. Saw a Moose in the yard!!

Beautiful view and home!
Everything was wonderful. The only complaint I have is the growth outside the bottom floor was obstructing the view somewhat. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our stay!!!
What a gorgeous view this lovely home has. Fortunately, we arrived to clear skies and got a great view of the mountains across the bay. There was also a pair of Bald Eagles that camped out on fenceposts on the home below us so we saw quite a bit of them. We also had a mama moose and her baby hanging out on the road for a good 20 minutes. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well outfitted and the beds were comfortable.
Location, Location, Location. The stunning view was amazing. The house is setup for a multi-family trip with two distinct floors separated from the other. That said, it’s a beautiful home with expansive view of Homer.

Awesome House
This house was absolutely wonderful to stay at. We rented both top and bottom units for eight people and had plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking. House was very clean and looked new, and was an easy 5 minute drive into town. The view from the living room is incredible. Would highly recommend this house to stay at.

Thanks for your good comments. We like to see our guests enjoyed our house.
Wow, what a view from this place!! Pictures do not do it justice! We certainly had a blast for our first trip to Homer!! We saw the best wildlife around the house and neighborhood. Majestic Eagles at a nearby home each morning and evening. We also had a Momma Moose with her baby that laid near the side of the house for most of our 3 day stay. The Spit was fanastic with the shops and restaurants! We took the water taxi to an epic hike on Grace Ridge!! Our only regret is not staying longer in Homer and at this house!!
Fantastic house with incredible views of Kachemak Bay, Homer spit, and Homer floatplane airport. There was tons of room for our group to spread out and enjoy the quiet and views. The house was super clean, well stocked, modernly appointed with comfortable furniture and beds! We even had a moose visit us... fed up the hill right past the deck. We loved our time in this Homer home.

We put our whole hearts to this house and hope our guests can enjoy it as much as we do. We make every effort to make our house the five-star accommodation. We asked the guest what was lacking in the house and got no response from her. We need our guests' specific input for us to improve, if there is any. From our past guests' comments and reviews, we believe we provided all the amenities needed for a vacation house.

The photos of this property sold me on this house!!! Not disappointed at all!! We could see the mountains, Kachemak Bay, and the Homer Spit all day which was sooo cool!! Outdoor space was so nice! Separate unit downstairs gave us room to spread out!! Room for little one to run around which was a bonus!
