Stayed Jul 31, 2025Property was fabulous. Had a small snafu in the beginning. But Catkin resolved the problem shortly after. Catkin was attentive to any questions or needs that my family had.Location was great. Lots of things to do within 20 minutes from the rental. If we are in Alaska again we would surely rent this location again.

Stayed Jul 3, 2025The Caribou Meadows cabin on the historic Kilcher Homestead was the perfect location to stay at for a visit to Homer. The amenities were excellent and the cabin has all the charm anyone could be looking for. The Kilcher Homestead is a beautiful property with several onsite hiking trails that offer spectacular views and a chance to spot the resident moose. Our host was very kind and generous with her time during a tour of the living museum at the Homestead. Would highly recommend this property when visiting the Homer area.

Stayed Aug 1, 2024We really enjoyed our stay at Caribou Meadows. The home was roomy, with all the amenities for comfort. We especially enjoyed learning the Kilcher family history as early settlers of the region. We only wished we could have stayed longer in this great, peaceful setting.

Stayed Jun 27, 2024We spent 3 days at this beautiful, quiet property. We had everything we needed and a lot of outdoor space with a great view to enjoy. If we had to do it again, we would have made a day out of going down to the beach on the property. We used the fire pit every evening and had a moose and her calf join us the final evening and morning.

Stayed Jun 12, 2024This house was great for my family about 15-20 minutes from Homer and had a rustic feel but with all the amenities. The host was very responsive and we would love to stay here again.
