This was the most charming house we stayed in during our trip. There was more room than we expected and it was so wonderfully decorated, we felt like we were truly home. The house was very clean. The checkout procedures were very easy. The location was further up on the hill which gave us the view we were looking for. A quick ride to town or the Spit. And thank you for the gift basket and coffee. Those little touches are always appreciated.

This was an incredible cottage. The view was outstanding! Could hardly believe how beautiful the scenery was from many rooms in the cottage. The decor was beautiful and well thought out. Furniture was comfortable and kitchen well appointed. It is also close to restaurants, shops, coffee house and the Homer spit. I would definitely stay here again.

Heavenly Homer Weekend

Homer did not disappoint, and the Kachemak cottage was the perfect place to stay to enjoy all Home has to offer. The cottage is beautifully decorated, fully appointed, offers space for many visitors, and has a view of Kachemak bay that is unbeatable. Highly recommend using this as your home base when visiting Homer.

This place is a gem!

We had a wonderful stay in Homer at this house. It is beautifully decorated, spacious and has absolutely amazing views. It was the perfect home base for our family to visit Homer and there is a huge yard for kids to run around and play in. We would definitely come back to this house if given the chance!!

Beautiful house with beautiful views. Our family of 7 had plenty of room.

The home is very inviting and well appointed. Enjoyed the expansive views of Kachemak Bay and Homer from the deck every morning and evening. We liked being away from town but yet only a few minutes away when needed.

Best Homer Experience

We had all we needed for a family of 7 and a baby! The view was amazing and we got to see the resident Moose! The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. The living room had cozy places for all of us to sit, which made it so nice to hang out at the end of the day. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We love Homer.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home was beautiful, and the view was incredible. Everyone had their own space, and the location was great. The beds were comfy, and we loved playing cards at the dining room table. Wish we could have stayed longer. There was even a bald eagle that hung out on the roof!

If I could give Ptarmigan Cottage 10 stars I would. It exceeded my expectations in every way. The location and view are perfect! The cottage itself, the amenities, the light washed rooms, premium beds and linens, exceptionally stocked kitchen. Book this place with confidence you will have a wonderful stay in Homer!!
