見事な景観を持つ華やかなログホーム

We are an Alaskan commercial fishing family with a deep love for the land and sea. Summers take us to Chisik Island, where we fish for salmon, leaving our beautiful home available to welcome visitors like you.

In the winter months, Jon works as a teacher at a local public school, while Paula combines her passion for eco-friendly living as a Norwex Independent Consultant with fundraising efforts for local schools and organizations.

It’s truly an honor to share our cherished piece of Homer, Alaska, with you. We hope you enjoy your stay and feel the warmth and beauty of this special place.

For eight years, we drove past this home on our way back to our off-the-grid timber-frame house nestled on 10 acres. Living there with many animals, hauling water, and embracing a simpler lifestyle was a rewarding adventure. But one day, as we returned home from fishing, we noticed this home—one we had admired countless times—was up for sale.

After taking a tour, we were hooked. The spectacular views, the ample space for our growing family, and the closer proximity to town meant our kids could enjoy more of the opportunities Homer has to offer. Moving here has been a terrific change for us, and we’ve loved calling this beautiful property home.

This home has captivated us for years, even before we owned it. It once graced the cover of Alaska Magazine and is as remarkable inside as it is out. Built with incredible craftsmanship, the yellow cedar logs were harvested in British Columbia and transported up the Alcan Highway. The interior walls are warm and inviting, adding to the home’s charm—though they do pose a fun challenge when hanging art!

The front of the home is a showstopper, with eight large windows and a sliding glass door that perfectly frame the breathtaking views. The mountains and glaciers across Kachemak Bay feel like they’re part of the home itself. We never tire of watching the Homer Spit, the town of Homer, and the airport lights twinkling as the sun sets and the night comes alive.

One of our favorite pastimes is soaking in the 104-degree hot tub, gazing at the Northern Lights when they grace the sky. During other seasons, the countless stars and passing satellites make for equally enchanting evenings

Playful Ravens is designed to help you feel completely at ease during your stay. With comfortable furniture, cozy beds, and plenty of space, the home offers a welcoming retreat for groups of all sizes—even when inclement weather keeps you indoors. Guests often share how much they enjoy relaxing here, taking full advantage of the spacious layout, movie room, and well-equipped kitchen.

One of our favorite pastimes is watching the sunrise or sunset from the spectacular deck, and we’re sure you’ll love it too. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, warming up in the sauna, or gathering around the fire pit, this home provides countless ways to create lasting memories with family and friends.

Playful Ravens is just 15 minutes from downtown Homer, and those minutes are filled with beauty. Moose, porcupines, eagles, ravens, hawks, owls, and even the occasional lynx can often be spotted along the way. The expansive views as you drive down the hill into town are simply breathtaking.

This is our family home, and Jon is an excellent chef, so we’ve stocked the kitchen with everything you need to create incredible meals. With high-quality appliances and all the tools at your fingertips, cooking for your family and friends can become one of the highlights of your visit.
