Unique Diamond Ridge Home

This is a lovely sturdy nail free wood beam home, with comfortable sitting and dining spaces, beautiful flower gardens and awesome views of snow capped mountains. Natural light illuminates the kitchen, it has a comfortable feel, the stove is great (as is the gas grill), the coffee organic, and I haven’t forgotten how to wash my dishes. Check in was a breeze. Our hosts were warmhearted folk and readily available when we had a question. We found their recommendations on hikes and local activities helpful. We slept well and enjoyed our stay.

Our family of three plus two in-laws stayed here for 10 days and it was truly wonderful! Deborah and Michael are great hosts, there when you have a question but we always felt we had complete privacy. The home is very comfortable and cozy, with lots of character. You will not be disappointed if you book this house!

This house is in a beautiful spot and just a few miles from Homer. Hosts are close to the property and always available to help and answer questions. We had a fantastic time there.

Our Host was warm and very helpful. The home was everything you would want for an Alaskan get away. Well stocked with all the need for a home away fromhome. Great size for couple or a family. Near hiking trails, close to town and easy access from main roads. The only down side is Homer is downhill from lodging. Good thing I came in summer. Wouldn't look forward to driving the hills in Winter. Highly recommend.

This property made us feel like we were at home. Perfect setting and relaxing atmosphere. Loved it.

The property owners were there to greet us when we arrived. They left very helpful notes as well as shared information about local sites to see. The house itself is beautifully built and very clean. The kitchen was well-stocked and easy to work in. The view from the amazing back deck is the best part of the property. We spent the majority of our time at the house on the back deck watching the wildlife and the spectacular scenery.

The setting was exactly what we wanted. It is a few minutes from town on Diamond Ridge with a scenic overlook toward Kachemac Bay and the mountains beyond. We preferred the quiet solitude over the tourist district. All the activities are a short drive away. The cabin is clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. It’s a bit dated but that is part of its charm. It was like taking a step back in time, except they have WiFi and a good cell signal when we needed it. We completely enjoyed our stay. My only suggestion is for the owner to email detailed arrival directions. We connected by phone and all was good but an advance printable email would be best. Thanks for the excellent hospitality!

My family stayed at this wonderful spot for 3 days. The house is unique and cozy with two wonderful bedrooms and another make shift bedroom all located on the upper floor. We had most of our meals outside because the weather was warm and sunny. We also had cranes that walked around the yard the whole time of our visit. The grounds are beautiful this time of year with flowers blooming everywhere including fireweed all over Dimond Ridge and Homer. The home is older and well used but that's the charm and I would rather stay there than a pristine place with no spirit.

This home was so lovely and comfortable from the moment you walked in. The spruce beams, trailing vine plants, and breathtaking views made it inviting and charming. It made us want to stay more, and we did. We ended up tacking on an extra night before driving back to ANC. The beds were very comfortable and our 4 year old had a great time exploring the house. We also had our 3 month old baby. The house had plenty of room for all of us. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

If you did nothing in Homer but hang out at this charming home and beautiful grounds you would be happy. The house is comfortable, kitchen is well suited, beds are comfy and the views are outstanding. You can see dramatic mountains in the distance while sitting on the deck which is surrounded by flowers. It’s private, it’s perfect, don’t miss it!
