Stunning Panoramic View Overlooking Homer Spit and Kachemak Bay

Bayview Vacation Home in Homer, Alaska invites you to experience unobstructed panoramic view. It sits atop a hillside overlooking downtown, Beluga Lake, Homer airport, Kachemak Bay, Homer Spit, Kenai Mountains and beautiful glaciers. The view from our house is very colorful, inspiring and ever-changing. Snow-capped mountains, green forests, glowing yellow meadows during sunset, and a sea of clouds along the blue bay are just some of the stunning views you can see during the day. At night, you can see the street lights sparkling on the Spit and the town. Even during rainy days, you will enjoy enchanting views of reflecting water droplets.

Our home was custom built in 2003 and faces nearly one acre of wild flower gardens. The house has a living area of 3,200 square feet, divided into upper and lower levels. In the upper level, the living room has vaulted high ceilings and huge panoramic windows built into the entire front wall. The windows allow you to soak in the views of the curved Spit, mountains and gleaming glaciers formed across the bay.

The master bedroom has one queen bed and one full bathroom equipped with a Jacuzzi bathtub. You can walk to the deck from the master bedroom or just lie down on the bed to enjoy the beautiful view.

The second bedroom has one queen size bed and one window. There is also one sofa bed for extra visitors and another bathroom near the entrance. Visitors sleeping on the sofa bed will feel like they are being embraced by the mountains in the dimming sunset. The spacious kitchen and dining area has a sliding door which leads to the deck. Additionally, the upper level is equipped with a washer and dryer for your convenience.

For privacy, a separate entrance deck leads to the lower level. There is also an indoor stairway leading to the lower level. The lower level has a living room with big windows overlooking the view and it contains two big bedrooms. One room has one queen-size bed and the other has two full-size beds. Both rooms have large windows to view the Spit and Kenai mountains. The lower level kitchen and dining area was newly built in 2008. The kitchens in each level are well equipped with all the necessary amenities for you to enjoy cooking and dining.

We purchased this lovely home in 2008 for our retirement and furnished it with the finest new furniture for your comfort. We also provided two 42” wide-screen HDTV, high speed internet, and cable/satellite TV for your entertainment. Our home sits on a private street where you can enjoy the serene wilderness, but easily get to town and the Spit within a few minutes drive. We have 3 security cameras. One is on the side of the house facing the parking area and the others are on the outside of the shed. They will be on during your stay.

Our house is the best for you to enjoy your vacation in Homer. Here are the features which you can not find from other places.
* Million-dollar's panoramic view, overlooking Homer Spit and Kachemak bay.
* A few minutes drive to the town, restaurants, Homer Spit and etc.
* Two big living rooms and two complete kitchens and dining areas. Very spacious.
* Comparable rate but more luxurious in a prestigious and quiet location very close to town.

The place was great!
The place was just as advertised. The views are absolutely bananas. They have several different house rules that are clearly listed but it's nothing that I wouldn't do at my own house. Great place to stay in Homer.

Beautiful view and home!
Everything was wonderful. The only complaint I have is the growth outside the bottom floor was obstructing the view somewhat. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our stay!!!

What a VIEW!
Fantastic house with incredible views of Kachemak Bay, Homer spit, and Homer floatplane airport. There was tons of room for our group to spread out and enjoy the quiet and views. The house was super clean, well stocked, modernly appointed with comfortable furniture and beds! We even had a moose visit us... fed up the hill right past the deck. We loved our time in this Homer home.

Awesome House
This house was absolutely wonderful to stay at. We rented both top and bottom units for eight people and had plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking. House was very clean and looked new, and was an easy 5 minute drive into town. The view from the living room is incredible. Would highly recommend this house to stay at.

All about the views!!
The photos of this property sold me on this house!!! Not disappointed at all!! We could see the mountains, Kachemak Bay, and the Homer Spit all day which was sooo cool!! Outdoor space was so nice! Separate unit downstairs gave us room to spread out!! Room for little one to run around which was a bonus!

Great view of Kachemak Bay!
We had a great stay in this place. A moose came to visit in front of the house. Easy to drive down to the Homer Spit. We had one small issue with a toilet and Robin was very attentive. Someone was there within an hour to fix it. My only suggestion for improvement has to do with the long summer days- blackout curtains on the windows in the bedrooms would be helpful for sleeping. Overall, we would stay here again.

Fantastic spot!
We absolutely loved the house. The view is just spectacular and the space was great for our family. Just a few suggestions to improve the place: put some lamps in the rooms so you don't have to turn on the bright overheads (we have a 3-month old baby so were up in the night), equip the kitchen with some serving dishes (platters, bowls) and more kitchen utensils, and talk to the neighbor about their dog doing its business in the driveway. Overall we were really satisfied with our stay and would definitely rent the house again. Thank you!

Septic system requirements…. No toilet paper must put toilet paper in the garbage and take outside each time. Six guys stayed here for a fishing trip.

Good, not great
The view was incredible, and we saw bald eagles & moose! Place was overall pretty clean, with a few minor spots that could have been better. One thing I didn’t like is that the fridge was full of someone else’s food and used bar soap in all the bathrooms. Good, but not great is how I would summarize.

Breathtaking Views with Breathtaking Bathrooms
We had a wonderful time at this house. Our kids were sad to leave and we didn’t want to leave the views. We never saw anything about septic issues until a recent review from someone else’s stay. This was never communicated ahead of time by manager and was not an ideal situation to have to deal with on vacation. When booking, we could tell that the house offered the bare bones of what we needed and that is what we got. This didn’t hinder our stay and we were prepared for this. We truly had a wonderful stay and we would recommend it, however, the septic issue needs figured out or communicated in advance.

Homer vacation
This is a beautiful home with all the amenities. It is very spacious. Our group was 7 people, so we all had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen is well stocked and everything works. Plenty of room in the dining room and living room. The bathrooms, bedrooms and laundry are functional. Also, the grill works fine. The view is most spectacular, and it’s only 10-15 minutes to downtown and the spit. The home helped make for a memorable visit.

This was one of our favorite places we've ever stayed. We would definitely stay again. Our family of 3 teens and grandparents had plenty of room and all enjoyed the property. The view can't be beat. Very close to our fishing charter on the spit and all activities we did while in Homer. Excellent stay!
