About this property

The Dovetail Cabin

The Dovetail Log Cabin and private bunk room feature a cozy log home feel with upscale Alaska decor. The cabin showcases local artists' works such as stained glass, limited edition prints, and woodcarvings. The kitchen cabinets are stocked with dishes, cookware, coffee, tea, and spices.

The Dovetail Log Cabin has a 280-degree view with large picture windows and large A-frame windows in the loft bedroom to take in the awesome panorama views. The main floor has a full kitchen and dining room, full bath and a wonderful bay window and lounger for relaxing.

A spiral staircase leads to a large loft bedroom with a queen size log bed, roll-out sofa, and chair. The sofa in the living room on the main floor is also a hide-a-bed for additional guests. Outside you will find a deck with lounge furniture and a gas grill for cooking the catch of the day. You will find all the amenities of home including satellite TV, games. Our Solarium (a remodeled greenhouse) with hot tub is a short walk and down exterior stairs—but worth the trip!
Rates are based on four guests. The maximum number of guests is six. Additional adults are $35 per person / per night and children under 12 are $20 per child / per night.

About the host

Hosted by Evelyn Harden

Host profile image
Evelyn purchased the Alaska Adventure Cabins, LLC in June of 2020. Although it was coming home since she was born here into a homesteading family years ago--but it is so much more. This is the beginning of a dream. The reviews and comments of the guests are so important as we continue to increase the opportunities for the guests' enjoyment. Our goal is to provide beautiful, comfortable accommodations the enhance you vacation.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful property is located in Homer, very close to amenities and tourist activities, but very private on the side of the hill, overlooking the Kachemak Bay and surrounding mountains. Guests frequently report whale and bird watching from the deck, as well as frequent wildlife sightings.

What makes this property unique

Along with a 280 degree view of the bay with the plush green landscape with groomed trails and photo opportunities, you enjoy a large deck equipped with furniture and a BBQ, where you socialize while watching a sunset, watching eagles play on the wind and moose will mosey past. (You are safe.) Great photo ops as you walk our summer trails and enjoy the plush green nature.
