Our Kilcher Homestead experience
Our stay at the Kilcher Homestead was magical!! The views are spectacular in every direction! Kelli, Shane and Otto are such cool, down-to-Earth people who work very hard on the homestead but took time out of their busy schedules to make us feel welcome! This was by far our best Anniversary vacation ever! We will definitely stay with them again!!

Memories of a lifetime!
We absolutely loved our stay, every minute of it. "The Barn" was rustic as told and we loved the view from the outside building. The homestead views we saw... there are no words to describe them. It filled my heart with joy and instantly put me at peace, absolutely beautiful even when the clouds rolled in. We were only able to stay one night so we tried to pack in as much of the scenery as we could. We took the lovely walk down to the beach and did some exploring. The walk back up truely shows how out of shape you are in or not. We were super excited to meet some of the family including Otto. What a fun family they are! Thank you to you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to meet and talk with us. We loved it and hope we can go back another time and for more than one night. The hosts, Kelli and Stellavera were very communicative and answered all my questions in a timely manner. They made sure we had what we needed to arrive and check-in with no issues. It was also a wonderful drive there and back from Anchorage. We were very fortunate to see Mt Denali in all her glory.

Off Grid Relaxation
I will definitely have a return stay. Kelli Kilcher was beyond nice. Wandering around the homestead was very relaxing. I’m from Florida, so going to Alaska to be one with nature was just what I needed to slow things down a bit and recharge my battery.

Perfect place to unwind
The Barn is a rugged home-away-from-home. This kitchen is fully equipped with lots of pots, pans and other items. The beds were comfy and there was a tons of space for adults and kids to roam.
Shane met us at the cabin and showed us around. There’s always a lot of activités but nothing loud that is disruptive to our stay (it is a working homestead after all).
Make sure your ready for an outhouse as it is an experience unto itself. Not terrible but not for the faint of heart or nose. 💩
Everyone we met was so kind and this experience will forever be a fond memory for my family.

Fantastic time unplugged
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Kilcher Homestead. We sat on the porch enjoying the fabulous view and quiet all around us. The hike down to and along the beach was lovely, as well as energetic! We would definitely recommend this place to anyone, couples or families, who want to experience the astounding beauty of the Homer, AK area.

2 day stay at the “Barn” on the Kilcher Homestead
We had a great 2 days visiting the Kilcher Homestead. The Homestead was easy to find with the directions from the host. The log cabin we stayed in was just as described and met our expectations. The views from the cabin were amazing! Stellavera, the host, made sure we had what we needed. We were able to meet Atz and Kelli Kilcher, which was great! We will return on our next Alaska trip.

We loved our stay here! We are fans of the show and really enjoyed feeling a part of the Kilcher legacy. We had a visit from Otto and he told us more about the lifestyle living on the homestead. He is very pleasant and humorous! Stellavera was great as well! She was very helpful will anything we needed and was wonderful to work with. Overall our stay was great just wish it was longer!!

Wouldn't stay anywhere else!!
This was my 2nd time to the Kilcher Homestead. On my 1st visit I stayed at the Wuz cabin (fabulous as well) and this time the Barn. Stellavera was hands on from the start, checking in to make sure we got there safe and that we had everything we needed. She even left the lights on as our flight was delayed and arrived late. The cabin was excellent. Large, roomy, well stocked, very clean. So comfy and cozy. Rustic charm. This yr returned to Homer with my travel partner, my granddaughter, and brought my daughter this time too. She was amazed at how friendly and hospitable the family members were. Visitors need not wander about looking for the shows cast and invading their private areas. They'll take time to stop in and say hello. The weather was great in June. The scenery amazing. Plenty of open spaces to wander and hike. The caretaker Angela was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the Homestead. She spent a lot of time with us talking about her time there and showing us around. We always leave there making new friends. Last year we were there a few days, this time a week, next year we'll stay even longer. Can't get enough of the homestead! 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ isn't enough!! I would give more if I could. The Homestead is must see!! Peaceful, serene, quiet. Highly recommend this piece of heaven and Stellavera is a wonderful host. Enjoy your time there!!!

Okay stay
The views were amazing as expected. The cabin, bedding and linens were clean. The outhouse was not an issue either, it was clean and had that familiar outhouse smell, what can you say? To this end, everything in Stellavera's listing was accurate.
Cabin notes: The days were warm (mid 60s-mid 70's) during the day with the nights running in the mid-50's. Not much air circulates in the cabin due to only one window with a screen on the upper level and one on the lower level (did not want to leave the main floor door open at night). The cabin stayed a little stuffy (mid 70's) despite the pleasant temperatures.
There were three fire extinguishers in the cabin with only one smoke detector on main level and no operative C02 (carbon monoxide) detectors which is a concern with a gas appliance and wood stove.
Listing Notes: Stellavera met us upon arrival and showed us around. She briefed us there was a long term resident in the adjacent cabin where we were to share the outside shower and there may be limitations as to when we used the shower. Soon enough she came back and said we could use the shower as long as we did not make any noise or talk. We used the shower one time when it was evident the other resident was gone and found a note that stated no laundry or showering except between the hours of 11AM and 4PM (so much for a shower before bed!). An important disclosure that would have been nice before our decision to book!
Stellavera then proceeded to invite us to the homestead tour the next morning at 10AM. We later found out the homestead tour is only the original cabin that adjacent to 'the Barn' cabin which is open to the public between 10-2 Monday through Saturday which means your peaceful mornings end at 10AM. We attended the tour which is basically the 'inside baseball' stories of the Kilcher's, their history and a short tour of original homestead cabin. The tour is another fee, even as an invited guest. The scheduled tours is another one of those disclosures that were not part of the listing or subsequent discussion prior to our arrival which would have heavily influenced the decision to book this property. Another unannounced aspect of our stay was the apparent filming of the show the week we were there. Lots of activity/noise around the barn well into the evening.
Bottom line is that we were looking for peace and quiet--the Kilcher homestead is not exactly quiet and that was the most disappointing part of our stay.

Slice of heaven
From the moment we left Anchorage to drive to Homer, we were in constant communication with property mgr, Stellavera. All of the Kilchers were very welcoming and accommodating. It was such a pleasure to be invited to a private 4th of July get together. Wonderful caretakers (Dave, Jeffery, and Natasha) working very hard for the homestead yet taking the time to stop and welcome us. Great hikes. The most beautiful scenery in all of America. There is electricity in the cabin and running water. Although there is no indoor restroom facilities, Stellavera was very thoughtful to make the outhouse, clean and comfortable. Jane was a hoot! Otto made an appearance (or three!) with wonderful stories and jokes. Catkin was so pleasant to be around with great good-bye hugs! Faye was attentive to our feelings. THIS IS A MUST STAY FOR ANYONE LOOKING FOR A MAJESTIC SCENERY IN A LAID BACK ATMOSPHERE! Thanks for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Jeff says Hello and Thank you very much as well. XOXO

Acerca del anfitrión
Anfitrión: Kelli Kilcher
This is the beautiful original Kilcher Homestead, featured on the Discovery TV show Alaska: The Last Frontier. We enjoy sharing the wonder of this land and this lifestyle with others. It is a truly peaceful experience to stay here, hang out or stroll through the meadows to our beach, which is private for miles and miles.
Por qué eligió esta propiedad
Our parents left this property to us children in a Trust so it would never become developed and remain in its natural setting for many generations to come, so people like you could come and experience the transformative value of immersing in Nature’s beauty. We still have a working farm on the property and plan to develop into a place of learning and sharing the knowledge of homestead living, crafts and arts.
Qué distingue a esta propiedad
Everyone who comes to visit feels the special quality of this land - serene and transformative. And if you’re a fan of Alaska the Last Frontier, this is a “must-stay” for an immersive memorable experience.
