Beautifully decorated unit and grounds with spectacular view from either of the 2 community use decks or from the private deck, or even from inside the unit with large sliding glass door view out to the beautiful flower gardens and mountains across the bay. Was nice to have the view from the warmth of inside. Bed was very comfortable, shower was spacious, washer and dryer was very handy inside our unit with detergent available for our use. Liz, the owner, was out gardening on our arrival, and was very welcoming and friendly. Even offered to give us bear spray to use if we did any hiking. The cleaner wasn't quite ready for our arrival at 4 pm, so we waited 10 minutes for the floor to dry. Prior tenant hadn't run the dishwasher and we had to ask for more soap and toilet paper during our 2 day stay, but none of that would prevent me from highly recommending the Lighthouse. There were yummy treats in the room for us too, as well as coffee and tea. No sugar but Liz would have provided if we had asked. Hope we can return someday.

The property views were amazing. The bed was comfortable and the accommodations were modern. The electronic door lock was a challenge every time. You never knew if it would lock or unlock. Each time it took multiple tries to get it to lock or unlock. The curtains were not blackout as we have experienced with other Alaskan accommodations. It was odd that the shower did not have a niche or a soap holder. The unit had a washer and dryer that we planned on using, but couldn’t because the washer was full of black mold that did not wipe away. We would not stay here again.

Home away from home in Homer!

The Lighthouse is a charming and welcoming place to stay! It has all the amenities (and more) to make your visit relaxing like your home away from home! We had a kitchen, patio, washer/dryer, and the view is unbelievable! There are multiple decks, grills for bbqs, a hot tub, and a delightful garden with fountains. Liz was always available and offered her warm hospitality! It is close to the Homer Spit and central to town. When in Homer, stay here!

The unit was a studio and included everything we needed for our stay. We had a surprise bonus, which was a heated floor in the bathroom. The only negative was our second night when a new group moved into the room adjacent to ours. There is a common linen closet between the two rooms that the new group took over and left the door between their room and the closet open and the light on. The noise was able to transfer into our room. I would recommend deadbolt locks that management retains on these doors to allow separate groups in the two rooms to have more privacy and quiet. Management can open the space if one group rents out both rooms.

We stayed at the Lighthouse in Homer, in the studio with full kitchen and had a wonderful stay. The unit was clean and looked exactly as the pictures show. The bed was really comfortable, the view of the Homer Spit and ocean was fantastic. The outdoor seating was well thought out and had great views. Very short drive to the Spit or old Homer where all the restaurants are. If you visit be sure to visit the bunny out by the hot tub, he likes head scratches. Highly recommended!

Amazing views! Clean! Very nicely decorated!

Communication was partly my fault. I should always ask how to operate the controls. I couldn't get one of the tv controls to work in the bedroom so we used the living room one. I didn't talk to Nathan about it. Owner has done a wonderful job with decor! Unit was super clean and had all the amenities we could ask for! We used the hot tub every night. One policy I wasn't too keen on was that we were asked to dispose of our own trash. We didn't create a lot of trash and the dumpster was behind the parking lot. Not a huge deal but I would think the service would be part of the rental fee. It won't stop us from booking again and I've already recommended it to our friends! We will definitely stay again!
