Lower Level Studio Lessons Learned
This place is perfect for people who want to be right on the water and spend most of their time outside exploring. The space and ambiance was functional and comfortable if not a little outdated. The first thing we noticed was the view to the water was about 70% blocked by a staircase leading from the deck of the unit above us. Our first thought was "we should have booked the upper unit." In retrospect, it was perfect. We spent most of the time away from the unit anyway. Communications with property management were friendly and courteous.

We enjoyed location mostly. It was easy walking distance to our JBear tour and all of the spit. Also enjoyed convenience of parking and beach front access. Condo was perfect for short visit with necessary amenities.

Tranquil spot on the spit.
This is an amazing spot in Homer to stay. It is at the tip of the spit where you can sit out or walk along the beach.
It is walked by distance to the nice eating and coffee spots.
It is quiet and peaceful at night.

Perfect location!
Loved everything about this property - only suggestion I would have is a little more attention to details. Some of the furniture needed dusting as well as window sill. Silverware, even if plastic would be greatly appreciated by guests … the body wash was almost completely empty. Otherwise was absolute perfection! Thank you!
