Nice house with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Great deck. Well located between Soldotna and Homer. If you fish, it worked out well with the owners living next door and would process and freeze your fish.

Great Find with Amazing Views!
We were first-time visitors to Alaska, our families are from Louisiana, Florida, California, and Minnesota. The house was perfect! The accommodations were very spacious, private and provided us with plenty of comfort. The house has incredible views. Heidi is a superb host. We look forward to returning!

Amazing family home to gather
Heidi and her family were so incredible and their home was amazing! My family had experienced the sudden loss of my uncle and we needed a place for his siblings and other close family to come together after his viewing to grieve and share stories, etc! This house was perfectly setup for us all. The open kitchen and dining area with access to the deck was wonderful. The family room downstairs for our younger cousins worked out great. Could not have been a more perfect spot and Heidi was so welcoming and comforting to us all! We all hope to come back again for a happier celebration in the future! ❤️
