This cabin has amazing views. The vintage stove was great to cook on. The shower was so amazing and nice. Everything abouy this place screams secluded but its really not. 15 minutes to downtown Homer. Would recommend this place over and over!!
Amazing views and very cozy, comfortable home, in a quiet neighborhood. This was my first stay at Diana’s place and I’ll definitely be a returning guest. Thank you for a fantastic long weekend and stunning scenery to relax with my dog, Parsons. We really enjoyed our time in the sun on the deck!
The pictures do not do this property justice. The view is incredible, and the house itself is absolutely gorgeous. Mountain and glacier views make coffee in the morning even more refreshing. The vintage gas stove makes the house feel cozier and dinners taste better. I would not change a single thing about our stay.
Great rental and rental experience. This house was comfortable for my husband and I. Beautiful views from the living and dining area. Well stocked with what you need to cook, relax and shower.
My husband, dog, and I stayed at Diana's place for a short 2 day trip. The house was 15 minutes out of town-- really quiet and peaceful with a great yard for our dog to romp around-- but close enough that it wasn't a hassle to go into town. Clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed space with a truly amazing view across the bay.
We were looking for a quiet, peaceful weekend and it was exactly what we got! Clean, neat, and it has everything you need! Also a great place for dogs, very dog friendly location. Our dog was so happy!
I'm 6'5 and often don't fit. The shower and bed accommodated me nicely. It was a great quiet place for our pet. The owner was quick in communicating with us.
Everything is better than as pictured, well appointed and comfortable. Town is conveniently close, but if solitude is what you crave, hunker down with provisions and take in the view! If we are ever fortunate enough to return to the Homer area, we'd definitely book Diana's spot again. This place is the best!
My husband and I have stayed in Homer many times, at different homes, but this by far has the most beautiful view. Diana is a very attentive host and catered to all our needs. We brought our pet and he was very comfortable from the moment we arrived. We will definitely be back. Thank you for opening up this slice of heaven!
Our 3rd stay here-I'm happy to report that this visit was just as great as the first 2. Located on a quiet deadend road with stunning views of the glacier and mountains across beautiful Kachemak Bay from the oversized living room windows or out on the deck, cozy, comfortable, clean, and completely furnished kitchen, bedroom, and bath, even towels to clean your pup after a long beach walk, this place is simply a gem. Diana is quick to respond, but respects your privacy. We come down to Homer from Fairbanks often, and have stayed at other vacation rentals around town. This is hands-down our favorite spot.
Easy communication with property owner when booking. Access to property was a breeze and the house is even better than the pictures. Lovely drive to the house. The house itself has a small but nicely tiled bath with a large shower. The room itself has a window with a view if the bay & mountains. The comfortable bedroom downstairs is only a few steps away.Upstairs is a large open space with wood floors. A kitchen with everything you need to prepare a small nosh or a full dinner is waiting. A vintage gas stove/oven works perfectly for all your needs. A wall of large windows with a spectacular view looking across Kachemak Bay with 3 glaciers in your sights spans the south side. Books, games and various knickknacks and vintage items catch your eye throughout. Blending perfectly and making this home a place of comfort.Hope we can make it back.
The place is exactly as you see in the pictures and more. A very comfortable, and peaceful place. You definitely do not need any television the views are mesmerizing.
We are so happy we had the opportunity to visit Alaska and stay here.
This is a very special property, form fitted for two people. With efficient kitchen and spectacular view of Kachemak Bay and mountains and glaciers beyond, this is as good as it gets. This comfortable property is in a great quiet rural setting and perfect for two people who just want to get away from it all.
This property has the most beautiful view of the state park across the bay. A nice large covered porch allows sitting out and enjoying the view in all weather. There is also a nice fire pit and complete privacy.
Inside, it is clean and the kitchen has all the appliances needed. The living space is so comfortable with huge windows facing the bay and mountain.
Loved my stay!!
We stayed for a week and highly recommend this property. The view was incredible and the property is clean and well equipped. The host made herself readily available for any concerns (although we had none). We are happy to have found this gem and will be back!!

About the host
Hosted by Diana Carbonell
I've been a resident of Homer since I drove up in my "72 VW camper in the spring of '92. I spend my free time skiing, hiking, camping , playing ice hockey and hanging out with my dog and my clever, handsome and charming boyfriend (he helped me write this) The house was designed by a friend from High School who became an architect. I liked the house so much I gave him a kidney for it.
Why they chose this property
Even friends who own local view property comment on how great the view is from this property. It's away from the relative bustle of Homer and with the Fritz Creek General Store and it's post office, liquor store, gas, grocery and deli just down the road, a person hardly needs to go to town at all.
What makes this property unique
I'm pretty sure this is the only area property that is a one bedroom private house, with a beautiful bay view and if you like, you can bring along your dog.
