A peaceful retreat

Everything is better than as pictured, well appointed and comfortable. Town is conveniently close, but if solitude is what you crave, hunker down with provisions and take in the view! If we are ever fortunate enough to return to the Homer area, we'd definitely book Diana's spot again. This place is the best!

Comfortable spot with a spectacular View

My husband, dog, and I stayed at Diana's place for a short 2 day trip. The house was 15 minutes out of town-- really quiet and peaceful with a great yard for our dog to romp around-- but close enough that it wasn't a hassle to go into town. Clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed space with a truly amazing view across the bay.

The pictures do not do this property justice. The view is incredible, and the house itself is absolutely gorgeous. Mountain and glacier views make coffee in the morning even more refreshing. The vintage gas stove makes the house feel cozier and dinners taste better. I would not change a single thing about our stay.

Amazing view

My husband and I have stayed in Homer many times, at different homes, but this by far has the most beautiful view. Diana is a very attentive host and catered to all our needs. We brought our pet and he was very comfortable from the moment we arrived. We will definitely be back. Thank you for opening up this slice of heaven!

Homer Gem

Our 3rd stay here-I'm happy to report that this visit was just as great as the first 2. Located on a quiet deadend road with stunning views of the glacier and mountains across beautiful Kachemak Bay from the oversized living room windows or out on the deck, cozy, comfortable, clean, and completely furnished kitchen, bedroom, and bath, even towels to clean your pup after a long beach walk, this place is simply a gem. Diana is quick to respond, but respects your privacy. We come down to Homer from Fairbanks often, and have stayed at other vacation rentals around town. This is hands-down our favorite spot.

Easy communication with property owner when booking. Access to property was a breeze and the house is even better than the pictures. Lovely drive to the house. The house itself has a small but nicely tiled bath with a large shower. The room itself has a window with a view if the bay & mountains. The comfortable bedroom downstairs is only a few steps away.Upstairs is a large open space with wood floors. A kitchen with everything you need to prepare a small nosh or a full dinner is waiting. A vintage gas stove/oven works perfectly for all your needs. A wall of large windows with a spectacular view looking across Kachemak Bay with 3 glaciers in your sights spans the south side. Books, games and various knickknacks and vintage items catch your eye throughout. Blending perfectly and making this home a place of comfort.Hope we can make it back.

About the host

Hosted by Diana Carbonell

Host profile image
I've been a resident of Homer since I drove up in my "72 VW camper in the spring of '92. I spend my free time skiing, hiking, camping , playing ice hockey and hanging out with my dog and my clever, handsome and charming boyfriend (he helped me write this)
The house was designed by a friend from High School who became an architect. I liked the house so much I gave him a kidney for it.

Why they chose this property

Even friends who own local view property comment on how great the view is from this property. It's away from the relative bustle of Homer and with the Fritz Creek General Store and it's post office, liquor store, gas, grocery and deli just down the road, a person hardly needs to go to town at all.

What makes this property unique

I'm pretty sure this is the only area property that is a one bedroom private house, with a beautiful bay view and if you like, you can bring along your dog.
