Great apartment!

5 of 5
Submitted: September 24, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We were two couples visiting Homer for the first time. Bobbi's apartment was a perfect find for us! The view from the big living room window was spectacular (our morning coffee hours were spent gazing at the glacier!). The apt was immaculately clean. Bobbi was the perfect hostess, allowing us to use her washing machine and offering us use of everything from bikes to extra jackets. She gave us total privacy (and we appreciated her tapping on our door one morning to let us know a moose was strolling in the front yard). The kitchen is so well stocked and we enjoyed cooking evening meals there. We really appreciated all of the Alaska reading material and guide books in the apt. There was nothing missing from this great VRBO home!

What a find

5 of 5
Submitted: August 16, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Yes the view is real. It is one thing to find a great place to stay and but to have a host so knowledgeable of the Kenai Peninsula and all it has to offer was the icing on the cake.

If you are looking for a memorable experience look no further this place is well outfitted, well maintained and clean.

You have everything you need right there which made the stay so affordable we were able to get in an extra day of fishing, what a deal!!!

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. The ower is welcoming, helpful, and hospitable. The house is extremely clean and very comfortable. Georgous views from almost every place in the home. The location is close to everything in Homer and yet far enough out of town to be very quiet and peaceful. Our only regret is that our schedule did not allow us to stay longer. We would definitely recommend this to anyone planning a trip to the Homer area.

A Great Choice in Homer

5 of 5
Submitted: August 19, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
I could not have been happier with my choice of a place to stay in Homer. The owner is warm, welcoming and helpful beyond what anyone would expect. The property is spacious with beautifully kept gardens and a fabulous view of Kachemak Bay and glacier. It is difficult not to spend all one's time looking through the picture window as the light constantly changes on the glacier - which you can also see from the kitchen, dining and living areas, one bedroom and the bathroom! The sun pours into the bedroom in the morning which is something I like a lot. The apartment is much larger than the photos indicate, is impeccably clean and well appointed. And it is very quiet. I liked the rural location, too; while it is out of town it is easy to get to town, the spit and Kachemak Bay road. There are so many wonderful excursions, walks, hikes, boat trips and fishing to do each day in Homer that I'm really glad I stayed for the week and had very long days to enjoy that unique community.
