Only a short drive off the main road, you’ll enjoy privacy in a secluded setting. With new beds, mattresses and furniture, this is a lovely two-level cabin, hand-built by Homer homesteaders with recent renovations completed in 2015. Moose Meadows has three cozy upstairs bedrooms, a modern kitchen, fully equipped for all your cooking desires, with a fully remodeled bathroom with bath and shower.
The wildlife in the immediate area is abundant, with moose, eagles, sandhill cranes, porcupines and many others. The cabin is sited privately with a large private yard, view of the bay, and a virgin wilderness behind. From the cabin, you can see beautiful Kachemak Bay and the mountains across the way.
The cabin provides modern features, has ample space and is a beautiful spot for a family to stretch out and use as a base of operations to explore Homer and Kachemak Bay. This cabin sits alone on a 3 acre plot 12 miles out East End road but has ready access on a graveled road, and is close to the amenities in the Fritz Creek area (gas, groceries, spirits), a world-class restaurant, and horse-back riding. In the beautiful town of Homer are halibut and salmon fishing, the Pratt Museum, galleries, restaurants, groceries, ATV tours, kayaking, music/theater, glacier/bear viewing, air tours and much, much more.
The cabin is within walking distance of a historic site of rich significance, the Kilcher Homestead, where I grew up in an austere 400 square foot homesteaders cabin that you’ll want to visit. Easy access to the Kilcher Family Homestead provides over 600 acres in which to hike through to the beach via one of only three beach access sites outside of Homer.

    Moose Meadows is in a beautiful place with a great view. The property is in a great location as well. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. It was a great place to stay and would definitely stay here again!There is 1 bathroom on the 1st floor and all bedrooms are on the 2nd floor and the water has a strong tinny/metal taste/smell. You can not park near the house either so be prepared to walk all items through the front yard to get them to the house.

    Knew the area from a previous trip. Cabin location was as described. Listing describes cabin as a 3br that will sleep 5, but in amenities it lists 4 bedrooms and 4 beds. To be fair I assumed the 4th bed was a fold out couch or something but upon arrival it was a separate small building with a bed in it. Worked great for my older teenager but would not have worked for young children. The and could be more clear, but I should have read better and asked that question. All the other amenities were perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My older kid probably enjoyed the time away from the younger siblings.

    Nice quiet place tucked away in nature with great views of the mountains and glacier. Some views of the bay. Cabin was as described and then some! Plenty of room for our group of four. Watched both movies about the Kilcher Homestead and family. So very interesting! Cooked many meals with the variety of dishware/cookware and spices. We enjoyed a campfire one evening. Catkin was very responsive and helpful. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing this wonderful property.

    We absolutely loved our stay. The main house has is beautiful and has everything needed for our 6 days stay. The extra cabin and outhouse was a great addition. The outdoor fire pit was enjoyed in multiple nights and one special night our son heard some crashing in the woods. He came and got all of us and we were able to see a momma moose with her two babies. Catkin was a wonderful host. She went above and beyond to find something we lost there. We would love to stay again! Highly recommend this piece of paradise !

    The cabin is well stocked and taken care of. Sitting outside on the deck was quiet and peaceful. The cabin even lived up to its name. We came back on our last evening to find two cow moose and one calf just off the deck. It was a perfect ending.

    We came to Homer to go fishing. We also took the ferry to Seldovia. Moose meadows was a great place to lay our head after a long day of enjoying all Homer had too offer.
