Perfect location

Love this spot so close to amazing birding and beach time. Second tome we have chosen this particular spot and will do so again. Delicious food within walking distance. We were down for the Kachemak Shorebird Festival and appreciated the ease of being near so many things. Thank you!

Perfect location, and perfect property!

My mom, partner and I loved our stay here! After plans changed of other vacationers, Connie promptly contacted me and informed me that she upgraded us to the Sea Shanty. It was extremely clean, cozy, and had everything you would need, including a very well appointed kitchen! The location is amazing, just steps from Bishops beach. Connie was extremely helpful and friendly, as well as communicative. Will absolutely be booking again!

Family beach get-away

We stayed two nights in this cozy little house. There are three other rentals on same lot. Quiet and peaceful. Easy, short walk to the beach. TV, books and games- but we never used the TV!!! Restaurants in walking distance, short drive to the Spit. Definitely recommended!!!

Just what we were looking for

Comfortable cottage with a beautiful beach within walking distance. Quick access to the offerings of Homer and the Homer Spit. Restaurants in the area were great. Fishing for Halibut! Hiking in Kachemak SP/Grewingk Glacier. Bear viewing trip. And sightseeing water taxi around the bay. Then a bit of relaxation at a Norwegian style spa right on the shoreline. Ahhhhh.

Cute small house in Homer

This is a cute little house in Homer - it's a bit tight for a family of 5, but it worked for us. Two kids shared a bed and one kid slept on the murphy bed in the living room. One of the bedrooms has a door but it doesn't go all the way to the ceiling, so it's more of a little barrier, not quite a room. The location is great, plenty of places to walk to (the crepe place down the street is wonderful and so is the winery), and the Homer Spit is a short drive away.

Easy access to the shore

This cottage was the perfect spot to access all that Homer and the surrounding areas had to offer. Our kids loved walking to the beach in the evenings. The gardens were beautiful, this was a great home away from home.
