Spacious and homey log cabin
This is the second time we have stayed in this house. It is lovely, comfortable, pleasant, roomy, and great for families with kids. Big kids enjoyed staying in the loft, the kitchen was well equipped, the jet tub was a good alternative to a jacuzzi, and the leaving room was a nice hang out place. Tom is flexible, friendly, and very responsive! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Fishing Trip
Came up to homer for a 3 day fishing charter and the cabin was perfect to come back to after a long day of fishing. Good accommodations to cook some of your catch that night and plenty of room to sleep 6 guys.

About the host

Hosted by Terri Barnett

Host profile image
Our family moved to Alaska in 2008 and have truly enjoyed living here. We first visited Homer in 2004 while visiting Alaska and we immediately fell in love with the town. After our visit in 2004, we knew we would be back. Our next visit to Homer was when we got married here in 2008. We've always wanted to own a home here and we finally made it happen in 2016! We are both biologists, so spending time in Homer where we are surrounded by so much wildlife and nature has been truly amazing! When we're not in Homer, we spend most of our summer on the water fishing and shrimping in Prince William Sound.

We have two young boys, Elias (7) and Paden (4) that are very active and love to be outside exploring. The beach is one of their favorite places to go, so many treasures to discover. We love spending time in Homer and hope your family will too!
