Delightful Historic House In The Heart Of Downtown - Walk To Everything!

Just a short walk to so many of the things our wonderful Alaskan town has to offer - gourmet restaurants, sandwich shops, Thai, Sushi, pizzerias, characterful bars, cheerful cafés with locally roasted coffee, art galleries & pottery shops featuring the myriad of talented local artists who call Homer home; The Pratt Museum, the Islands & Oceans Visitor Center, a movie theater - even the beach ... all within striking distance of this charming house.
A short drive away is the famous Homer Spit which leads you to the harbor and all the fabulous fishing & nature activities we offer here.

Completely rebuilt and remodeled, this historic house was saved by its owners as a piece of Homer's history. It has everything you will need for a most comfortable stay - a brand new full kitchen to prepare your freshly caught fish, two bedrooms each with their en suite bathrooms, and a guest restroom if you have extra people. One bedroom has two extra long twin beds that can be made in to a King bed. The other has a Queen bed. Its spacious deck is warm and sunny and has a view of the Bay and mountains beyond. Though right in town, it has a lovely private, woodsy feel. Don't be surprised to find a moose napping under the trees!

The property was in a convenient location with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. At the time we were there several trees were being cut down with chainsaws and a shredder right next to house. I felt that check out at 10:00 am was a little early and having to find and take the trash to a dumpster inconvenient. Great communication with the host.

Perfect Get Away in Homer

A clean, comfortable, and convenient place to stay in Homer. It was great to be close to the spit and close to shops in town. Our host was responsive and gave us some wonderful tips on things to do and places to go while in Homer.

Wonderful property and exceptional location.

This was an excellent base for our fishing and other trips. And if you’re a fan of live music, this is the place for you. Alice’s Champagne Palace is right across the street and has bands on many of the summer weekend nights.

Comfortable home and great location

Victoria is a very kind and responsive host. Gave us great recommendations too! The home is lovely with comfortable beds and is located close to everything. We were able to get to the spit for our fishing trip quickly, the grocery store was nearby and plenty of restaurants to choose from in close proximity. The home is equipped with everything you could need and having 2.5 bathrooms was great for our group. It was fun watching the wildlife in the front yard....bunnies and sandhill cranes. Will definitely come back again.

Great place to stay in Homer

The house has plenty of room for two couples and had everything we needed for our stay in Homer. It is in town but a little hard to find as it is “tucked away” but that adds to the charm. The kitchen was stocked with pantry supplies, which went above what we expected. The beds were comfortable. A wonderful place to stay!

2024 smith Alaska trip

Went to visit Homer and could not have found a better location. A short drive to the Spit and a walk away from several restaurants and shops not to mention the beach. The home was much larger than expected from the ad and very comfortable for 4 adults .

Homer stay

Our group of 2 couples, (4 adults) stayed here for 3 nights. We definitely wanted 2 bedrooms and 2 separate bathrooms, this place had 2 1/2 baths and that was awesome. Everyone had enough privacy, kitchen was well equipped, location was good, had the weather been better we definitely would've taken advantage of the deck more. Would definitely stay here again.
