This bluff property is home to a 2400 sq. ft. custom 3-bed/3½ bath house that can accommodate up to 8 people and is close to Homer. Each bedroom has an incredible view, its own bathroom, and has either 2 single or 1 king-sized bed so it can accommodate couples or singles. It has a 180-degree view of Kachemak Bay and the Alaskan Mountain range. Its large yard has a fire pit and picnic table as well as a big deck with a Weber Grill. Inside its open floor plan is a comfortable place to enjoy each other’s company.

Because I've rented many houses that include very little, this house is super stocked. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need including coffee, flour, sugar, spices, and detergent. Linens, towels, laundry soap, and shampoo are also provided.

This is an amazing spot; quiet, private yet close to town with an awesome view!

I would love to meet you and am happy to answer any questions you might have.

The home was clean and the kitchen is completely stocked with everything you need. The beds were very comfortable and the views of the ocean and volcanoes were spectacular! I would definitely recommend. The host reached out to us the first day to ask if we needed anything so that was nice.

This house is fabulous! Unbelievable view. We could see four of Alaska's 'Ring of Fire's volcanos from the deck on a clear day. The rooms are large and comfortable, the owner kept in touch by text to make sure we were enjoying our stay.The location is very convenient to Homer and the Homer Spit. We hiked, we kayaked among icebergs in Grewingk Glacier Lake with a beautiful view of the glacier, we took a boat to Seldovia, watched the fishermen coming back with their catch of the day, alwe ate great food (we highly recommend The Twisted Goat for dinner), enjoyed shopping on the spit and we saw two cow moose, each with two ca

Family trip to Homer

Our second time to stay at The Raven while visiting Homer with family. The house is large enough to accommodate multiple family members with separate bedrooms/bathrooms for each. It’s only a short 6 minute drive to Homer and has some of the best views from the house and deck! We did excursions with Capt. Daniel (Homerfishing.com) and he did an amazing job again. Definitely recommending The Raven to all our friends when they go to Homer!

A great place!

Great house, amazing view, and good hosts. I must admit that i didn't communicate much with the host, but I didn't need to. They reached out shortly after the reservation and asked how they could set the bedrooms up to accommodate us. When we arrived everything was as requested, ans expected. A very good experience.

Beautiful house with an incredible view

Our stay at Christie’s home was amazing. It’s the perfect place for a few couples or group of friends traveling together. The home is very spacious with great zones for relaxing and cooking. The real gem is the expansive view from the master bedroom, living area and deck. Quiet and lovely. Exactly what I hoped for!

Best stay of our trip!

I didn't want to leave! The house is beautiful, the property is beautiful, the views are indescribable! We saw eagles, ptarmigan, a mama moose and her two babies, and whales breaching in the ocean. I could have sat on that back deck for the entire week we were there. The only thing I would want is a couple of bath mats for the shower and tub. They were very slippery.
