This place is such a gem! Our family of six enjoyed this home so much that we stayed in that night and cooked. The views are incredible with this hillside home. We saw a super full moon rise over the mountains. It was clean, smelled fresh and had super comfy beds. Host was quick to respond to questions. We will definitely stay here again.

We loved everything about this beautiful cottage! The view is absolutely breathtaking! We enjoyed hanging out on the deck taking it in and listening to the birds when we weren’t busy adventuring. We even got to see a moose and calf walk right through the yard. The kitchen was well equipped, beds were very comfortable, and the layout was great for three couples having a bedroom on each level. It’s just a short 10 min drive to the Spit and town. We didn’t want to leave!

This was the most charming house we stayed in during our trip. There was more room than we expected and it was so wonderfully decorated, we felt like we were truly home. The house was very clean. The checkout procedures were very easy. The location was further up on the hill which gave us the view we were looking for. A quick ride to town or the Spit. And thank you for the gift basket and coffee. Those little touches are always appreciated.

This was an incredible cottage. The view was outstanding! Could hardly believe how beautiful the scenery was from many rooms in the cottage. The decor was beautiful and well thought out. Furniture was comfortable and kitchen well appointed. It is also close to restaurants, shops, coffee house and the Homer spit. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay in Homer at this house. It is beautifully decorated, spacious and has absolutely amazing views. It was the perfect home base for our family to visit Homer and there is a huge yard for kids to run around and play in. We would definitely come back to this house if given the chance!!

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.
