Volcano Vista: Adventure Chalet w/ View, 2br (dry property, check description)

Relax in the tranquility of a comfy getaway w/ a view. 20 scenic min. from Homer, AK, panoramic vistas, outdoor opportunities, and the charm of a chalet w/ most of the comforts of home. About a mile to Homer Rope Tow, Lookout Mtn. ski trails, & back country trails. Explore nearby trails in any season by foot, snowshoe, ski, fat tire bike, snow machine, or ATV. Wonderful for some time away in winter. Perfect for solitude in summer!

2 story, 900 sq. ft. chalet with a bedroom on each floor. Each bedroom also has a twin air mattress available for sleeping options. Full kitchen except no running water. (12 gal. of delicious well water is provided per 2 nights.) Bathroom is an outdoor, well lit outhouse complete with heater that is switched on from the chalet. Heat sources are wood stove and oil monitor stove. Relax and enjoy views of the Anchor River valley by day and (hopefully!) northern lights from the deck or living room by night (in winter). In summer and fall take in the rolling hills of forest and fire weed. Upstairs landing has a small TV/DVD player and a selection of DVDs as well as toys, books, baby gate, and pack 'n' play. Opposite small deck has firewood storage and access to outhouse. Fire ring is available in the yard, please bring your own firewood. Wood for wood stove provided. On clear days spot Redoubt volcano from the deck. Location is about 1 mile from Watermelon Trail, Homer Rope Tow, and Lookout Mountain ski trails. In summer the Watermelon Trail is accessible for hiking, fat tire biking, and ATV adventures. Volcano Vista is a great place to relax after a day of fishing or exploring the Spit and Homer must-sees (Pratt Museum, Islands & Ocean, Wynn Nature Center, etc!). Best for 4 guests, up to 2 additional guests, $20 per additional guest per night. Cell phone coverage can be spotty, but is generally reliable. Enjoy a glamping getaway, jumping off point for family adventure, or bring your visitors above Homer for a quiet evening in the hills. ** Please note: parking is nearby and the chalet is not visible from the road. Access is a short walk along the edge of the yard.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a patio, and a sofa bed.
