Beautiful apartment above a thrift store. Right on the main road.
Don't judge the place from the parking lot or the outside, it is spacious and clean inside. It could use a furniture update, but over all a good place to stay, location close to the the spit.

Great location, don’t let the “above a thrift store” deter you. Clean and comfy! The most well supplied place we’ve stayed which was a huge plus and the washer and dryer bonus!!! Host very responsive, we would stay again.

Perfect Home Base
This apartment is the best spot for "home base" when taking in all Homer has to offer. The place was roomy, clean and very comfortable. Right in the middle of Homer and walking distance of Beluga Lake. Would definitely stay here again!

Wow
Even with a weather cancellation to fish, Homer was enjoyable. Location was great. Nice comfortable accommodation. Amanda was the best, helped with tv and all concerns we had at check in. Might come back to fish and flying to Brooks Falls.

Just what we needed
Nice full kitchen, only thing missing was a pitcher to make iced tea. Nice bed and hide-a-bed couch. Plenty of linens and dishes. Nice big bathroom with a good size washer and dryer. Left us shampoo, conditioner, soap, laundry and dishwashing soap.
