This was our second stay at Heather View. In addition to the million dollar view of Kachemak Bay and across Cook Inlet, the house is beautiful. Great kitchen, nice bedrooms and decks. We also really enjoyed the fire pit. This is a beautiful property and a great host.

Beautiful home with beautiful view

The House and property was better than described and convenient to everything in Homer without being too close. We greatly enjoyed our stay and Maggie’s hospitality. We even got to see a mom and baby moose at midnight just outside the door one night.

Breath taking views near Homer

The home was great. Very clean and well equipped kitchen. Our only suggestion would be to put a queen sized bed in the guest bedroom and a king sized bed in the master. Maggie is a great host. You will love staying here.

Amazing place!

We loved our 5 night stay in this very private, large home. Great views, saw a moose and her calf in the neighbor's yard, comfortable beds and great kitchen (with sharp knives, a rarity for rentals!) Would definitely stay here again next time we're in Homer.

Maggie Burns the owner was awesome. A group of four of us fishermen stayed five days, self-catered ,and enjoyed having the two and one-half bathrooms. Of course the views from the decks were magnificent.
