    The cabin was perfect for our needs. Everything was clean, all the cooking supplies we needed, lots of small touches like motion lights in the kitchen and outhouse and slippers. The fireplace made the place very cozy and my kids loved having the upstairs to themselves and the treat of a TV and DVD player! The location could not be beat for the event we were attending just a mile down the road!

    This was just the place I was looking for! Beautiful scenic drive up the mountain and a gorgeous property! The outhouse is cozy and clean. Caught the first snow of the season on our last morning!

    This was the most beautiful VRBO! The views were spectacular. The small touches were wonderful. It was quiet and peaceful, everything we were looking for. We already talked about wanting to come back.

    We loved our time at this VRBO. Whenever I had a question, Rachel was extremely prompt in replying. The one thing I can't stress enough is how beautiful the view is from the front window (which faces the back). The fireweed is blooming and the contrast with the trees looking all the way down and out - simply breathtaking. We saw the volcano our first night, when it was clear. Amazing. When the clouds rolled in, it was still lovely. We loved Homer and enjoyed the hike across the bay at the state park. We were so glad we stayed at this place (impeccably clean, great kitchen amenities - and did I mention the view??) instead of in town or on the Spit. It gave a completely different perspective and being higher up was just beautiful. Washing dishes was a little challenging, but the dry cabin experience was just fine. Great spot!

    Wonderful property in nice very quiet and private location. Very well equipped, felt almost as if it was our own summerhouse.Owner lives nearby and is very responsive if you have a need or concern. View from the house is absolutely stunning. We were there on some cloudier and rainier days. Nonetheless, the fascinating view kept changing and surprising us!

    The Adventure Chalet is pure magic. This was our second time staying here, and we’re already planning our third. Rachel and Jason have created a true refuge that feels like it was designed with families—and especially kids—in mind.From the thoughtful decor to the well-stocked amenities, every detail is warm, welcoming, and fun. And that view—absolutely breathtaking. It’s just as gorgeous as the photos, if not more.Even the outhouse is charming (I actually wish I’d taken a photo of the interior—it’s that cute!).We’re so grateful to Rachel and Jason for sharing this special place. It’s beautiful inside and out, and we feel incredibly lucky to return to it again and again.Highly recommend to anyone looking for a family-friendly, soul-filling Homer getaway.

    Very responsive down to earth owners. The property was very clean and accurate to the description. If you want someplace with a hot shower don't rent here although there's options in town. Fantastic value for the money clean nice house plenty of space awesome porch.
