5 stars are not enough

Spectacular is not an exaggeration. This is an apartment with quality furnishings. The host thought of every possible need a customer might have. We felt at home and comfortable. No words seem to express just how enjoyable this stay was.

Absolutely Amazing!! Perfect!!

If you’re looking for a place to stay in, Homer absolutely book this VRBO! It is beautiful, overlooking the harbor with easy access to shopping and, of course, THE Salty Dawg Saloon!Communication with the host was exceptional and the accommodations were above expectations. Everything is spotlessly, clean and in “like new condition”I would rate this among the best places to stay on the Homer Island Spit if not the best place to stay!

truly perfect!

stayed with friend, this was just a perfect location- stayed with friend- stunning views from all windows, great set up (complete kitchen, also a washer and dryer!), comfy bed and a wonderful deck. Everything you could need has been thought of, would not hesitate to go back. (Was initially a bit worried about staying over the Salty Dog saloon- did have ear plugs, owner also provided a sound machine in the BDR, but turned out to be just fine). Very highly recommend if staying in Homer :)

This property is literally within walking distance to the entire Spit. It's literally right over Salty Girls and right next to the Salty Dawg. The views are incredible and the property is clean and well maintained and the attention to detail inside was so thoughtful. I actually don't think the listing does this property justice. The deck was so enjoyable that other tourists kept trying to come onto the deck before realizing it was part of the property. The parking is unbeatable for the area too. Super easy and convenient considering the parking police are brutal on the Spit. We would love to return to this peaceful gem. Thank you for wonderful accommodations!

Cozy abode in the action!

We loved staying here! It’s private, cozy, and still central to all the action on the Homer spit. My friend and I enjoyed sitting on the deck to watch boats and wildlife and walking to all the shops nearby. We also loved the living room fireplace and the fully stocked kitchen. It was clean we felt very safe. The saloon is next door of course, so make sure to bring some earplugs if you plan to go to bed before 1 AM. :)If you’re looking for a homey landing pad for your walking adventures on the spit, this is a great spot. Thanks for hosting us!

Great Property!

Had a quick one-night stay here. Donna was quick to answer any of my queries, and everything went smoothly from check in to check out. The property is in a primo location on the Spit- steps away from the Salty Dawg and harbor. Great harbor views sitting out on the deck, spacious & clean interior. Would definitely stay here again!

CLEAN!!! And GREAT Location!

We've stayed in many VRBO's, none cleaner than this one. The view of the harbor is breathtaking! It rained through much of our stay, but I'm sure the deck would have been a great place to hang out on a sunny day. We were forewarned about possible late-night noise from the Salty Dawg next door, but that did not bother us at all. I WILL stay here again if possible.

Great rental on Homer spit

We loved our stay here. Great to be right where the action is. Seeing the boats coming and going in the harbor, a seal and sea otter joined at times as well. Apartment is very comfortable with a beautiful kitchen. Comfortable bed. We appreciated having tea, coffee, salt and pepper and our favorite chocolate. Thanks Donna!

Amazing apartment in Homer

Probably the best view from the spit. The afternoon show, watching the pro fish filet teams after the boats came back was great. Fully equipped kitchen. Easy walk to all restaurants and shops on the spit. Parking just downstairs from the porch.
