We eloped at The Loft in Homer!

The views from the loft are spectacular, as is the outdoor space. The loft was very clean and the accommodations were wonderful! It was an amazing stay and I would 10/10 recommend staying here! Our host, Deborah, was beyond wonderful and kind. A truly magical place to stay.

Best View In Alaska

The Loft was simply amazing and met every single standard that one could have when traveling. You will not want to leave once you see the view from the many panoramic windows. Deborah has thought of everything and every amenity to make your stay fabulous. You will simply not be able to find a better place to stay in Homer, or Alaska for that matter.

Better than advertised

It's rare to find a property that exceeds the description and photos, but Deborah's loft did in every way. We had an amazing visit to Homer (where my wife lived 40+ years ago when she was a child). The Loft was a sanctuary to hang in the garden or sit and read in view of the mountains. We stayed in way more than we thought we would just cause it was so nice!

Great host, amazing views

This cabin is located on a hill and oversights the Homer spit and lake Beluga. You can enjoy the views and observe floating airplanes takeoff from the lake. You can also see the glaciers across the Kachemak Bay on clear day. The host was great in providing what we needed and the recommendations for local activities. Thank you so much Deborah.

Spectacular!

Our stay at the Loft was spectacular in EVERY way. We met Deborah upon our arrival, and her dog Blue, as she was tending to her immaculate gardens. They are BEAUTIFUL! We could enjoy them from an outdoor deck at the rear of the Loft. The accommodations were five star plus. Deborah had seen to every detail! The views of the Homer Spit from the front windows are amazing! I wish I lived here!

This truly is the best vacation rental we’ve stayed at! Deborah is gifted and passionate about what she does and it shows in every detail. She has created a classic, cozy and comfortable accommodation that feels homey and welcoming.The view from the many windows is breathtakingly spectacular! We enjoyed our time in the area, but credit our stay in this rental for a five-star experience. We loved it. If we’re ever in the area again, we’d return to this home away from home! Thank you Deborah!

Needs more than 5 stars!

I wish I could give Deborah and her Loft more than 5 stars! The online photos are beautiful but do not do this space justice. Spectacular view, tons of light, a magical garden area, excellent location, and above all, Deborah is a phenomenal host. She has attended to every little detail, including creating an impressive set of "things to do in and around Homer" materials, and this was one of the best rental experiences I have ever had. I even got to see a moose mom and baby in the yard. :) If you are planning a trip to Homer, this is where you want to stay.

Picture Perfect in Every Way!

Absolutely beautiful location and house! Gorgeous views from every window - truly felt like we were staying in a painting. The furnishings and details were also spot on. Perfectly curated decor and lighting with ample electrical outlets and hooks for towels and bags. We didn’t even want to open our suitcases because everything looked so beautiful and perfect. I only wish we had stayed here longer. If I come back to Homer, I will definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Deborah

Host profile image
Hi! I was born and raised in Wisconsin, spent my college & career days in Colorado, and moved to Homer in 1999. Our home was built in 1995, and in 2012 we built the detached Loft listed here. In 2017 we finished the interior of the Loft in 2017 so we could share the beauty of our property and it's magnificent bay views with friends and guests. I'm passionate about gardening and "making things beautiful".

Why they chose this property

Our property is located in one Homer's most prestigious neighborhoods and in-town locations. The property backs to the Homer hillside and has over 3 acres of unparalleled in-town privacy. The slight elevation of this property over the town of Homer affords unobstructed panoramic views of the Homer Spit, Kachemak Bay, mountains/glaciers, islands, Beluga Lake, Bishops Beach, and Mariner Beach. You will not be disappointed!

What makes this property unique

The Loft guest house is thoughtfully designed throughout to meet your every need along with gorgeous custom finishes and attention to every detail. Spectacular views from every window of the Homer Spit and Kachemak Bay and beautiful gardens. Enjoy Homer Spit views from the beautiful custom hand-built queen-size bed. Lounge in the afternoon sun on the private back deck overlooking our hillside gardens.
