Fridge does not work - lost all our food
Can beat the location. This unit also had great views!! The only issue is the fridge didn’t work and we lost an entire fridge full of food. I messaged the point of contact with no answer. Beware if you plan on brining food as you’ll quickly learn the fridge does not work and be out lots of money as groceries are not cheap.

Great Alaska Getaway.
What a great, quit neighborhood. Beautiful Fritz Creek right outside your door. Not far from Homer and the Spit. Well stocked bedding and towels. They also leave you a few pods and dryer sheets for doing laundry. Would be nice if the kitchen pots and pans were upgraded a little bit and a BBQ would be nice. Other than those minor issues, it was an awesome stay!

Beautiful view
Overall, there was a beautiful view of a creek and wilderness… There were several issues however, no cel service, some of the burners on the stove didn’t work, which is fine things happen however, in reading the guest log, it hadn’t worked for several years. It was billed as having sheets for all of the beds the living room pull outs did not have sheets, when I finally got a message through to the host the response was “you’ve been there for a 2 days and you just noticed this now?… The living room has a lot of windows wonderful during the day however, 4 people are expected to sleep in that room at night, and there are no curtains. There were other things, but all minor. I did, however miss read the information when booking and realized I owed another fee… I tried to contact the host, Vrbo and the other entity that I paid through… cell service was nonexistent and very difficult to get a message out to anyone as stated before I contacted the host to get them to bill my card for the balance… they wanted cash, I was not comfortable with this… and ask them to bill my card… They were insisting on cash… Due to several instances at the rental, I doubt that I would ever rent this Duplex again

BEAUTIFUL 😍
The only thing we didn't have was more time! Amazing property with beautiful views. Our only thoughts would be window coverings for for the upstairs windows in kitchen and living room. Its not a privacy issue, but to help with the never-ending day light for those who sleep on the pull out beds.

Great, but . . .
Check-in process could be improved. We never received instructions containing lock code, wifi password, where to put trash, etc. Luckily the tenant downstairs had a contact number for the property owner. The property owner responded to our call at 10 pm and got us all squared away.

Homer fishing trip 2020!
This was the perfect place to stay for us for our Homer fishing trip. Settled just perfectly far enough away from The Spit to feel that you have your own place on the Fritz Creek. We we saw a Moose and her baby calf walk across the property and get into the creek it was amazing! And located just minutes away from our fishing charter early morning take off. The fushibg was hot, the accommodations Perfect. We would come back again!

This home was perfect for a mixed group of dads and two teenagers. We each were able to have our own bed due to the configuartion of the beds offered. It appears to be a newer build and everything was clean and in great shape. We felt fortunate to be able to book this for our vacation.
