Very private and comfy little cabin! Hostess was very friendly and attentive! Loved painting rocks for her garden and all of the special little touches that made our stay wonderful! Highly recommend this property!
I booked this cabin for my folks - their first time in Alaska. From what I heard and the pictures I saw, this was an amazing place to stay and the hosts were absolutely wonderful. The views from the cabin looked breathtaking. So happy I booked this cabin to elevate my parents’ experience there!

What a amazing place to stay. It was so comfortable cozy, and quite. Had amazing views. The host Anne has it decorated so nice. Will definitely stay here again.
We stayed for three nights while visiting two national parks. This property makes you feel like you are in the country, while being close to all there is to see in Homer and beyond. Feels like a studio, but totally worked for the two of us.

It was okay. A little care to the outside would make the view a lot nicer.
This cozy cabin is full of character and warmth. We enjoyed a peaceful stay with our dog (dog friendly property) that was hosted by a delightful long-time resident (on the property). Gorgeous landscaping, breathtaking view of Kachemak Bay, and close to all of Homer's amenities. Loved it!
The cabin was just like we expected, though it had quite a bit of bugs which is understandable since we were in a wooded area. The only caveat seems to be that you cannot lock the cabin from the outside, though we were on a pretty secure property and only left clothing behind so it wasn't so much of an issue. Incredibly friendly and welcoming owners! Would stay again if given the opportunity!
Bel posto nella collina di Homer con ottima vista panoramica. Host molto gentile. Cabina piccolinaa ben tenuta,un letto matrimoniale e un letto singolo in stanza tra separata. Bagno privato,ma senza porta e dà direttamente sulla cucina,non il massimo
Pleasant stay for my wife and I along with our dog.

Hostess Ann was so friendly, accommodations were disappointing.
Disappointing, could not secure the entry door when leaving the property, no bathroom sink, a Cafe door for the bathroom door, no privacy and combo Smoke and carbon monoxide was mounted on a wall behind a large bouquet of artificial flowers.
