Cliff House By The Sea

Overlooking the Kachemak Mountains and the bay, you will find this home nestled within the trees, just off the sterling highway. This upper story, single family home is perched on a cliffside and boasts breathtaking views unmatched by almost anywhere else in town. 
Listen to the ocean below, while enjoying your morning coffee on the balcony. If the day provides liquid sunshine, relax with a cup of tea and watch the scenery out of the big picture window. 
It is quite common to spot eagles soaring, seagulls gliding on the wind, fishing vessels heading out to sea and always, the mountain views. Most often you can smell the salty air, as the daily breeze carries it up the cliff side.
Just 1 mile from the hustle and bustle of lively Homer, Alaska, you can enjoy all of the conveniences of town, while still enjoying the exclusive privacy this home offers with its almost entirely enclosed patio.

This home has a full kitchen, two bedrooms and one full bathroom. The living room is cozy and warmed by the sun and offers a variety of eclectic decor. The artwork in the home is one-of-a-kind, and placed for your viewing pleasure by the host.

Bedroom 1: Single twin bed and offers window views of the bay. 

Bedroom 2: Twin/twin bunk bed

Bathroom: Tub/shower combo 

Kitchen features: Fully stocked to include pots, pans, utensils, dishes. Fridge, microwave, stove/oven.

Living room: Comfortable wicker chairs and futon couch. The futon couch folds out into a queen bed to accommodate two (2) more people.

Patio: Lounging chairs to enjoy the sun and views.

Keypad door lock, makes for a seamless, no contact entry in to the home and lends the convenience of not having to keep an eye on where the key is. This also creates for a simple exit, upon the end of your stay.

Nice view!
More advanced notice of location address and contact phone number would have been helpful. Communication through VRBO was terrible. The location was OK, highway traffic noise and no place to walk around. The view was great.

Cliff house
Overall great view and most of the amenities we needed. Could have at least one queen bed as it was difficult to share a bed with my wife on a single bed. I enjoyed not having a tv but could have used some Wi-Fi for business and overall communication. Wasn’t sure about trash removal so we hauled our trash to a dumpster on the spit. Caught a ton of fish and enjoyed all of the attractions homer had to offer.

Best spot with a pet
Beautiful setting. Comfortable but basic clean and well located. Could use a fillet knife and sharpener in the kitchen but otherwise we’ll equipped.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The view and the location to Homer was great. The house was clean but run down. There was rust in the sink in the bathroom, no laundry options and only one set of towels for the week, there was no comfortable seating in the living area.
