NamaStay ~Spectacular Views in Scenic, Convenient Location

NamaStay invites you to step inside, unwind and take in the panoramic views of this roomy and comfortable home away from home. Surrounded by stunning Kachemak Bay and its glacier-studded mountains, NamaStay is located in arguably one of the most scenic areas of Homer, yet we are a convenient 6 miles from downtown. Within minutes you can access Homer's art galleries, shopping centers, and fine restaurants-- or head to the famous Homer Spit for myriad fishing and recreational opportunities.

This 1400 sq. foot chalet-style Alaskan home is sunny, stylish and spacious. Situated on just over an acre of land, NamaStay is ideal for friends, couples and families, and can accommodate 2 to 6 people.

The ample living room boasts vaulted ceilings and a wall of south-facing windows to capture the light and warmth of our long summer days. A dining area is nestled into the living room, providing an intimate space to celebrate food with family and friends. Our deck is fully equipped with a propane BBQ grill, picnic table and lounge chairs, and is the perfect place to enjoy your fresh catch, some Homer-grown veggies or a locally brewed beer.

The well-appointed kitchen has everything you need and more to prepare gourmet meals during your stay. A small table and custom crafted breakfast bar provide spaces to indulge and take in spectacular views.

The master bedroom includes a queen size bed, walk in closet, 8 drawer dresser and full bathroom. The en suite bathroom features a handcrafted stained glass countertop with stainless steel sink. Light-canceling shades offer a reprieve from the midnight sun and alluring views when you're ready to daydream about what adventures await you.

The second bedroom hosts 2 new twin beds, situated opposite each other in a cozy loft bedroom, with plenty of closet space and a luggage rack. Distinctive angles and newly installed birch flooring transform this modest space into an inviting enclave. An additional sleeping space containing a fold-down sofa bed is available on the first floor in a recessed area off the living room. There's a small closet in this area for storing luggage and hanging clothing items, as well as a 3/4 bath just steps away. The downstairs bathroom's unique tile and beach rock floors, sink top and backsplash are noteworthy design features.

An expansive yard hosts guests such as resident moose, eagles, hawks and pheasant; sandhill cranes and other migratory birds also frequent the wide open fields this region is known for. A lovely 2 mile walking trail is accessed in either direction from NamaStay, an easy and relaxing way to explore the neighborhood and all the while be dazzled by breathtaking views.

NamaStay provides all the comforts of home, with an intimate setting in a superb and convenient location. Make NamaStay your home base for your next Alaskan adventure and create unforgettable memories that will leave you beckoning for more.

House was clean and spacious for our family of 4. The view of the mountains and water were top notch and made it beautiful. Hard to tell from the photos but there are other houses pretty close by and sitting out on the deck I could hear very clearly other people having phone conversations so it was not as quiet as we had hoped. The key box to gain entry was jammed and difficult upon arrival and there were some plumbing issues on the first day that were a nuisance but overall the stay was lovely for the three nights we stayed.

Beautiful view and nice and cozy. The stairs going up to the bedrooms can be hard and the second bathroom is downstairs. The main bedroom has a bathroom that is attached. The host was wonderful and very helpful. Overall the stay was wonderful!

This was a great house for us! It’s just outside of town enough that it’s quiet but close enough to buzz in to town for whatever your agenda is for the day. Very nicely decorated, comfortable beds and towels, fantastic views!

Killer Views

We booked this house based on the views in the listing pictures and we were not disappointed. THE VIEW IS NOTHING SHORT OF SPECTACULAR!! The house is located about 6 miles from town so a car is a must. The drive to town is scenic and not an inconvenience at all. The stairs to the second floor are steep and narrow so that should be a consideration if you are elderly or handicap. Also the master bedroom has the only real bed. The rest of the beds are cots or futons. There is also no washer or dryer. Not a problem for us but it might be useful information tor others. Our only real complaint is a small one - the grass needed to be trimmed around the walkway to the door and at the base of the deck stairs. We would rent this house again.

Great vacation

Family of 5 adults. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Property manager was great to work with. Only had one, very minor, issue that was immediately taken care of. This was a return trip for my husband and myself. We brought other family along so they could experience what we had the previous summer. Everyone was very happy. Loved the home and the view. Hope to stay again.

Cozy home with spectacular views!

Only a short drive to downtown Homer, this home has amazing views to the glacier and mountains across the bay. Even though it rained A LOT throughout our stay, the windows ensured we had plenty of light and felt connected to the outdoors, while the window coverings in the bedrooms ensured a good night’s sleep. The home was VERY clean and had everything we needed. We appreciated the nature guides and local info on the bookshelf, and the sandhill cranes in the yard were a treat!
