The cabin was absolutely stunning and well located for a quick drive into Homer. The listing does say 2 bedrooms but when we arrived there is only one bedroom and 5 beds in the loft with a bathroom. All in all very pleased and will be coming back to visit again!!!

Lovely property

We love coming to Homer for an annual family trip each year and this spot did not disappoint. The upstairs area is a large space with 5 beds all in one open bunk area with one bathroom. The house was clean, well stoked, and perfect for what we needed for a weekend fishing trip.
