Was a great stay, close too the water. Nice and friendly
hosts.
Pretty small more than two people would be pushing it.
But overall we enjoyed our stay Thx
It’s so nice & quiet neighborhood. Great place for us to establish a base to fish, explore the peninsula. Say hi to Odie and enjoy this quaint cabin. Only plus would be blackout curtains for us lower 48er’s who are t used to the land of the midnight sun.

Disliked: Communication
Very poor communication. Sent one note and got a quick response, then ghosted me and VRBO. Would not consider staying there again.
The cabin was a great location for fishing the river. Becky was a great source for any questions we had about the area. Lots of eating places near by and Homer was just 90 minutes away.
