Delightful Historic House In The Heart Of Downtown - Walk To Everything!
About this house rental
Nestled in Homer, this charming house for $362 per night is a great option for your next vacation. 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!

Unfortunately only stayed one night at this nice place due to time constraints. Appreciated having washer and dryer and coffee for the coffee pot

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.

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.

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!

The view is spectacular, the beds were very comfortable, and the proximity to the Spit and town was convenient.
Our only glitch was finding the place initially; it is located behind a house.

The only thing I would suggest is that the owner provide trash service. I think for what people pay that should be provided instead of having to haul the trash to the spit and find a dumpster to put it in.

Very pleased with the home. Added bonus with the mother moose out back with the twins.

A quaint little town surrounded by beautiful terrain. Victoria’s home was just what we needed and was within walking distance to downtown and Bishop beach. The Spit was close by but I recommend driving there. We saw numerous Eagles feasting on the fish there. The Spit, although a bit of a “tourist trap” had every kind of tour you could want and multiple restaurants and boutiques. You could also fish from the shore. We were lucky enough to have fresh fish that my husband caught out there from the “fishing hole.”

Excellent property. Maintained with many consumables like flour, spices, coffee, soaps for washer and dishwasher. I wish all VRBOs were maintained this way. In town location but surrounded by trees makes it very private. I highly recommend this rental.

Comfortable house in the middle of town. Perfect for two couples. Thanks, Victoria, for letting us use your home!

We stayed in the dead of winter and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! Comfortable and plenty of room for the 4 of us. As was stated in the description, everything you need is provided, and very convenient to town - could walk to many places in January with no issues. Although the house is close to a number of establishments , it sits back off the road and is very quiet. To top it off, Victoria was very quick in responding to the questions I had. She made good recommendations, and even greeted us at the door…….while she was clearing snow and ice to help with our arrival. If you are like me, you have already read through lots of rental descriptions. I would suggest you stop your search here. You have found your home in Homer.

This is a really nice place. Great beds with comfortable pillows, sheets, and covers. Very nicely furnished. My only knock on the location is the closeness of a bar (about 1 block away) that plays live music until 2AM on the weekend. I would however, recommend this place.

This place was great for our needs. We were two couples there for 4 nights. It was plenty spacious and nice to have bathrooms in each bedroom. The outdoor deck was nice; great place to hang out while we grilled the fish we caught! It was very clean and reasonably appointed. The host was very responsive. Some things are walkable from the house (restaurants and bars), but it would be difficult to walk to the grocery store and a very long walk to the spit. Tons to do in and around Homer, and we had a great time. This place was a nice and comfortable home base for us!

We had a great time in Homer. The Cabin was very nice. We saw a bull moose and a cow with twin calf’s wander behind the cabin. The location was great! Back woods feel with restaurants within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again.

Clean , well laid out, open comfy home. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, spices, etc. Super convenient location. Beautiful view of the mountains from all the front windows. Huge deck with a the same view, although we were there in April so couldn't enjoy it.
Mostly quiet, as the house is nicely set back from the main road, with a buffer fence and some trees, which are situated so as to not obstruct the view.
Will definitely stay again!
