This was our second stay at Heather View. In addition to the million dollar view of Kachemak Bay and across Cook Inlet, the house is beautiful. Great kitchen, nice bedrooms and decks. We also really enjoyed the fire pit. This is a beautiful property and a great host.

Breath taking views near Homer

The home was great. Very clean and well equipped kitchen. Our only suggestion would be to put a queen sized bed in the guest bedroom and a king sized bed in the master. Maggie is a great host. You will love staying here.

Beautiful home with beautiful view

The House and property was better than described and convenient to everything in Homer without being too close. We greatly enjoyed our stay and Maggie’s hospitality. We even got to see a mom and baby moose at midnight just outside the door one night.

Perfect Family Home with Amazing Views!

The whole process of checking in and out as well as communication before and during the trip with Maggie was seemless! We would highly recommend this stay! We really enjoyed our morning coffee and evening wine from either outdoors on the deck or indoors from the dining room, livingroom, and master bedroom. We even saw 3 moose- 1 coming right into the yard! It was the perfect Alaskan Getaway! The location was ideal from Homer- super easy access to get into town, yet in the country with the more secluded feel.
