Beautiful views in a lovely cabin

We had a great stay at Jada’s cabin. It’s incredibly clean and the reverse layout lets you take advantage of the beautiful views from upstairs. The location is perfect - just 10/15 minutes from the town of Homer. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you’d need to cook at the house. The host is super responsive as well. Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re in Homer!

Superb view

This house is the perfect set up for a stress free, relaxing holiday in Homer. The house was clean, new and had all high end finishes and appliances. The view of Kachemak is perfect from inside the main living space, the downstairs primary bedroom and the nice large balcony. Although the house is less than a mile off of the Sterling Hwy, there was zero noise from the highway and felt quite private. Overall, our stay was great and would certainly consider a return visit when back in Homer.

Nice Place but too Spendy

It was weird to have the only bathroom downstairs from the living area, although it was a nice bathroom. One extra roll of toilet paper seemed skimpy for over $600 a night. We rented 2 nights but arrived Saturday and left Monday. We had to bring in a partial roll from our vehicle and then had to use paper towels and put them in trash can. Living area nice. Wished there had been a fire pit. View was gorgeous when we could see it. We felt overall that it was a very nice place but overpriced.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Jul, 2024
Thank you for your feedback, Char. There were 3 extra rolls of toilet paper that you and your guests went through in 2 nights and you very easily could have reached out if you needed more. The listing is clear there is only one bathroom and we can’t control the weather/fog which obscured your view. If you really desire a fire pit at a property, please book places which specifically advertise they have one. I accepted your booking at $400 a night (not the $600 you claim) even though you tried to book without any kind of deposit or insurance. Good luck to you in your travels.
