East End Swell – Ground-Level Comfort with Ocean, Mountain & Glacier Views

Nestled just below East End Summit (upstairs apartment), East End Swell (downstairs apartment) offers a serene, 1,000-square-foot retreat with sweeping views of Kachemak Bay, the surrounding mountains, and distant glaciers. This thoughtfully designed downstairs apartment blends comfort, function, and style—ideal for couples, families, or travelers seeking a peaceful base for their Alaskan adventure.

The open-concept living space features high-end appliances, a fully equipped kitchen, and comfortable accommodations for up to six guests. Step out onto the private patio to take in the quiet beauty of the bay and mountain landscape. A dedicated freezer is available for storing your fresh catch, and the pull-through driveway provides easy access with plenty of room for boats and trailers. Whether you're fishing, hiking, or exploring Homer’s galleries and cafes, East End Swell offers a welcoming, well-appointed home base to return to at day’s end.

Traveling with a group? Pair with the upstairs unit, East End Summit, for a private, multi-level stay.

Delightful Homer Accommodations

We were quite impressed with the above and beyond details provided at this property. From Dawn Powerwash to Olive oil, soft towels and linens, this house was the best place we stayed in Alaska. Jackie, our host, was easy to communicate with and responsive with messages. The view of the mountains was spectacular. We even saw a moose in the backyard We want to come back someday!

The East End Swell is a great spot to stay. The view of Kachemak Bay is wonderful. The quality of this new build is very good. It was a very well equipped and fully stocked kitchen. Jackie was very responsive in communicating and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there!
