Home Sweet Home(r)!
This is an ideal spot for exploring the Homer area. Easy to get onto the Spit and into downtown. It’s tucked back off the Beluga Lake, making for stunning views and zen relaxation. Amazing close-up experience of the seaplane base—absolutely unique perspective. Buildings are new, clean, and well-maintained. A truly top-notch find. Sadly, I had a work call during the trip and can attest that the WiFi is solid— multi-hour zoom call with no hiccups. Book it!

This is a “must-do” when staying in Homer! The seaplane base is so clean, quaint and we’ll appointed! And to be able to watch the planes coming and going is especially wonderful. Highly recommend this fantastic place!!
