We love the bungalow at bishop beach and try to come back every year. We love the view of the beach from the master bedroom, the kitchen has everything we need to cook our meals, and the local bakery and coffee shops are awesome. Homer as always is delightful and charming.

Little small for 6 guys but we were primarily there to sleep before an early morning of fishing and then come back to sleep again after a long day fishing. Owner met us when we checked in and was very accomodating. We had several questions which he answered. I would stay here again.

The Bungalow at Bishops Beach is a Home away from home! It comfortable fit our family of 9 including Oshi, the dog. Do not miss out on the opportunity to walk to the beach, old town Homer & whatever else you might enjoy. Listen to the Eagles, Crows and Sandhill Cranes while enjoying the view from the deck.

This Bishop’s Beach House is the best place we’ve ever rented! Quiet, soooo close to the beach, with Sandhill Cranes flying overhead. The art work inside is lovely, and the property manager is the best!

Cozy Bungalow by the Beach

Clean, well-supplied with the necessities. May be a little small for more than 4 people. Only minor inconvenience was that the single bathroom was downstairs for all bedrooms upstairs. Nice location for a short walk to the beach.

Alaska Stay

Our stay at the bungalow met all of our needs. We used the BBQ every night and the wonderful weather we ordered made the our experience even better. We watched eagles and moose from the dining room table and took walks along the water front just steps from the door.
