This cottage was built in the 1950's. It's been remodeled multiple times, but still has its quirks! Very charming and comfortable you won't want to leave! It's located right on the coast of Kachemak Bay, Homer, Alaska. Settled between the small airport and the ocean, you will hear the small cessna planes leaving for bear viewing adventures as well as the sounds of eagles and gulls. Enjoy the views from the kitchen, living room, master bedroom, hot tub, sauna, expansive deck or manicured lawn. Beautiful place to relax and recharge. Excellent birdwatching with two eagle nests close by as well as multiple shorebirds on the beach below. The beach below the house is not accessible from the property, but a short distance away there is a trail leading down to the ocean. Excellent location - short drive to town for groceries and a short drive to the Homer Spit. This is our primary home and we live here with our dogs October- May. We are happy to share it with you. It’s a special place!

Idyllic setting-looking across water at snow capped mountains with eagles crisscrossing to their nest. Whether sitting in the hot tub or the living room, there was always something gorgeous to look at.
The house is immaculately clean, beautifully furnished and complete with everything needed for comfort, cooking or entertainment. The location is perfect for accessing town and Homer Spit, yet feels like a very private retreat.
This property has been the best over all others that we’ve ever stayed in. Comfortable, cozy and quaint . The decor is just perfect! This property is great and the host is on top of things . We hope to stay with this property for years to come .
When we pulled into the driveway we entered a different world filled with beautiful gardens and surrounded by trees- truly a secluded oasis. Upon entering the house you see a wall of window with amazing views of the the inlet and mountains. The house well equipped, beautifully decorated and immaculate. We enjoyed mornings drinking coffee on the deck looking at the mountains and evenings enjoying drinks in the hot tub. The host was very accommodating before we arrived and although we did not meet her in person, made herself available if we had needed anything.
An incredible experience!! If you have the chance to visit Homer we highly recommend Homer's Coastal Cottage.
Our stay was awesome. Communication with owner, Emily, was prompt and helpful.
Views from the many windows are breathtaking. Cottage was very well furnished. We would love to come back!

I moved to Homer, Alaska 16 years ago from Hayward, Wisconsin. I enjoy hiking, reading, fishing, walking the Homer Spit and playing ice hockey. I met my husband at the hockey rink. Brandon and I Iove to listen to live music, relax outside, and enjoy good food and wine.
We spend the summers at our cabin on Island Lake in Nikiski, Alaska.
Why they chose this property
I looked for a house on the Kachemak Bay coast for over a year. Once I stepped in this house I knew it was the one. With the windows overlooking the ocean and the vast mountain views it has this magical feeling I can't explain. Book it to feel it too!
What makes this property unique
The hot tub and sauna - both with ocean and mountain views, makes this place a true relaxing experience.
