Perfect location in a town like no other.
We had a wonderful three night stay. This was the perfect location and a perfect place to stay just outside of Homer Spit. Walking distance of Bishop’s beach. Communication and getting in and out of the cottage were very easy. Clean rooms, bathrooms, hot showers, great views and stocked kitchen. My family loved our stay. We’ve already discussed coming back and booking again Thank you for your hospitality!
