While the cottage has it’s quirks, the incredible view and privacy more than make up for that!

Everything about this property exceeded our expectations. Private, clean and close to town. The best part of staying here was watching the mother moose and her 2 babies from the hot tub.The owners are very friendly and helpful if you need anything.Wonderful place.

Completely underrated property
This house is private, spacious, conveniently located, well equipped, very reasonably priced and could definitely sleep a family of 6. It is conveniently located just outside the madness of the spit, but close enough to it that you can get there in about 5 minutes. The views are breathtaking and the eagles buzz the house constantly. If you stay anywhere in homer it should be this house or another one offered by Baycrest Lodge. Have already sent the listing to numerous friends and family. Staff were excellent even though we never saw them. We got in late and they left the key for us. Can’t speak highly enough about this place

Spectacular!!
Everything about our visit to Homer exceeded expectations. From the drive from Anchorage to pulling in at the house. Words truly can not describe the view upon pulling in and parking the car. Smooth and easy check in and the house is amazing! From the cleanliness to the amenities to the comfort of the bed. We used the upstairs bedroom, as it was just the two of us. Did I mention the views?!! The deck is wonderful, with views that make you want to move here. The hot tub is incredible, clean and we used it daily. It was lovely watching the sea otters and boats in the inlet and Eagles flying over the property. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Alaska.

Amazing Homer Vacation
My wife and I stayed here last year. It was such an amazing vacation we came back this year with our college age children. The house is wonderful with amazing views. Our kids enjoyed the hot tub every evening while looking at the mountains and bay. Just a wonderful place.

Private with Stunning View
Four of us stayed here and found a lot of thought went in to providing guests with excellent kitchen tools and appliances. Everything we needed and then some was found in the kitchen. Home was very clean with comfortable beds. The view is stunning with a feeling of staying in a secluded, private area. Elderly folks who cant do stairs will find a bedroom and bathroom on the first floor. Home has a nice ramp leading up to the front door. Highly recommended.

Best VRBO we have ever stayed
The house was very well equipped including a gas outdoor grill, full kitchen, etc... Like being at home! The covered deck was used every day (good or bad weather) and the salt water spa was also used every day. Living room and bedrooms were comfort for four adults.

Truly breathtaking
The views from this cabin are out of this world. Everything about this place exceeded our expectations. It was even better than the photos online! Having a private hot tub was a huge bonus and made our trip so relaxing. It was so quiet! We watched otters, whales and eagles from the deck. I have stayed at many vrbos and this one was by far the cleanest I have ever experienced. We cannot wait to stay again!

Simply amazing!
Truly incredible stay. The view is simply stunning and the home is perfect in so many ways. Extremely peaceful and quiet with no close neighbors. The home has everything you would need. Kitchen was fully loaded with every dish, pot, pan, silverware, and appliance you would want. And the appliances are all high quality. The hosts even provided condiments, tea, coffee, dish soap, hand soap, Kleenex, toilet paper, etc. Very cozy beds and plenty of pillows, towels, etc. Sitting at the dining table or the back porch and enjoying the view is hard to describe until you see it yourself. Pictures do not do it justice. And after a long hike enjoying the local scenery, relax in the awesome hot tub. This thing is the real deal with high quality jets that are incredible. The entire family enjoyed it every day. We truly did not want to leave. And the washer/dryer came in very handy (detergent provided). Lastly, Jen was extremely responsive and very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend this home for your family or a group of friends.
