About this property

Cannery Cabin, 2 Beaches, wildlife, kayaks, bear viewing, glacier experience!

Welcome to Between Beaches, we are open year-round! At this exceptional location, you can watch the sunrise on one beach and set over the other. Our unique, handcrafted beach cabins and Beach House (VRBO listing numbers 993127, 661493, 449876, 1587179,1620934, and 2073319 ), are located on MacDonald Spit, a scenic water ride from Homer through beautiful Kachemak Bay State Park. Our cabins are only steps away from sandy beaches where otters play & eagles soar. The Cannery Cabin is surrounded by spruce and alder trees, offers spectacular views of the bays, islands, and snow-capped mountains without standing in their shade. Built by a lifelong Alaskan, this cabin faces Kachemak Bay and glows in the evening sunsets. Included in your stay are Necky kayaks, rowboats, BBQ with gas, a hammock, clam rakes and buckets, and more. Inside this cozy cabin, you will find a fully equipped kitchenette, full-size bed and a day bed, full linens, a flushing toilet, and electric heat. Outdoor artistic shower next to the cabin, and access to the owner's wood-fired hot tub and sauna when available. WIFI from your beach chairs and inside the art studio/gallery, always open. There is excellent cell reception throughout the property. Choose from a variety of activities, kayaking, fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, beachcombing, tide pooling, birding, and more. The wood-fired hot tub and sauna are always available, there is plenty of wood an ax, and a chopping block for your use. Whether you come to relax or play, enjoy an evening beach fire as the sunsets. Whale watch from your pillow and fall asleep to the sound of the surf. During your stay, you may visit our art gallery and enjoy art insulations throughout the property.

Peaceful Escape
We stayed at Between Beaches for 3 nights as an anniversary visit to Alaska. Our stay was wonderful. Excellent communication with VRBO owner & manager. Wildlife viewing, jellyfish floating, shell searching and so much more. We highly recommend this private, charming cottage VRBO opportunity. Tip to out of season travelers, bring your own food; not many businesses or restaurants are open in Seldovia during Oct-April.
