You'll feel the serenity of Alaskan country & wilderness beauty staying out of town on 10 acres! A full remodel and sunroom addition after a bad fire in 2023 is allowing this to become a dream home we are looking forward to share with guests! Large windows frame postcard worthy views! A charming 'country feel' inside with 2 bedrooms and a large sitting room upstairs provide ample room. The wrap-around deck outside hosts BBQ and views you'll remember long after you're gone. Located about15 minutes from town, one of the perks is the incredible drive out East End Road! You see Homer from a whole different perspective as you climb up to 1400ft above the bay! There is Fritz Creek General Store for staples, gas, & liquor will hopefully be open for 2025 after a bad fire. Also, this is Alaska: The Last Frontier country as the Kilchers homestead is in the Fritz Creek area only a few miles from The Husky Ranch! There is a State Parks hiking trail within a half mile of the ranch or just enjoy your run the place! Wildflowers galore! The house is 1800sq ft. and sleeps 6; 1 king bed, 1 queen bed and a very comfy double futon. Wi-Fi, smart TV's, all amenities! Early in the season is referred to as 'break-up' and spring is still waking up but come mid June, watch out, the cranes land in the fields and moose frequently cruise through the yard! This once was a robust working sled dog ranch so keep your eye out for the old sleds that grace the property~Peaceful but gently wild~ Complete comfort for the soul and a tranquil spot in our Cosmic Hamlet-by-the-Sea. Welcome~~!

    The ONLY problem with Husky Ranch is that when you look out of the huge windows onto the Bay, the mountains, and the glaciers beyond, you just want to sink into the wonderful couch and never leave your seat ! The accommodations are five star, and our hosts have supplied the home with everything you need. They even included a huge basket of goodies for us to enjoy (which we decimated). There are 'blackout' shades in the bedroom, the TV has all the channels you would ever want, and the drive into town is extremely scenic and enjoyable. We loved our stay, and would come back in a heartbeat.

    It will be really hard to put into words how great our experience was with our stay at the Husky Ranch. It was a fantastic base for our adventure in Alaska. This is our second Alaska experience and the best accomodation we have had to date. The view is extraordinary, a sweeping 180 view of the Kenai Mountains and Kachemak bay! The property is large and expansive with no close neighbors except for the grounds maintenance housing. The owner was very eager to assure that our stay was satisfactory which was appreciated very much. We would definitely recommend this property for anybody who wants a high-quality base for their Alaskan experience.

    Phenomenal ever changing view. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was very quiet and felt secluded, yet an easy drive into Homer. Hope to return soon.

    The property was lovely and cozy. Exactly what it said it would be with views that were anything but ordinary. Great place to escape the crazy world and get back to what really matters.
