Great place!!

We had to work most of our stay which was unfortunate. But the place was GREAT!!!!super cozy and Marcella was beyond kind and thoughtful (her dog is a sweetheart too!). Place is super clean with great views. It’s about a 10min drive or so to spit which wasn’t bad at all! We would highly recommend her place to anyone!!

Homer honeymoon

The house is absolutely beautiful with an amazing view of a valley. Me and my husband were greeted by blue and gray jays on the gutter right outside our window in the mornings. We also spotted a cow moose in the valley. The owner is an amazing lady who makes you feel right at home and also has some grate recommendations on places to eat and things to do. I hope we can come back to stay agin!

Perfect retreat

The place was just right and was just like the pictures show. The selection of breakfast food was really great, pretty much everything you could think of. We especially enjoyed fresh blueberries, fresh eggs, homemade bread, and very tasty biscotti.

Lovely stay

This studio is perfect for a couple. Beautiful interior and view, and comfortable bed. Location was very nice in a quiet street on the hill overlooking the Homer area. Everything very clean. Unit could use updated cooking pots/pans.

Completely perfect

I was completely charmed by the Bear Paw studio. It was bright and sunny, spotlessly clean, and stocked with plenty of food, including fresh fruit and half-and-half for my morning coffee. The bed was very comfortable. The quiet neighborhood and beautiful flowers made for serene surroundings. Somebody came in and did my dishes while I was off exploring Homer- unexpected and appreciated. I was so delighted that I spent and extra night- thank you Marcella! This will be my go-to spot whenever I return to Homer.
