Adorable Cabin
Everyone in our family said, "Wow!", when we walked in. Really cute and immaculately clean. The grassy area in front is pleasant and there is a nice view towards Cook Inlet. Took us maybe 10-15 minutes to drive down to the Spit. Kellie was very friendly and helpful. It is just down the road from the Bear Creek Winery which was a fun stop. Our only regret is that we did not have more time to be able to relax and enjoy all the amenities like the deck and grill. We would definitely stay there again if we are ever lucky enough to come back to Homer.

Really Nice
My Wife and I stated at the cottages for 3 nights while we were in Homer. The cabins are wonderful. It's a beautiful setting, with a great view. The cabins are really nice. They are really clean, with everything you might need. Homer is a great town, with lots to do. It also has the best weather in Alaska.

​Perfect and Comfortable!
My husband and I found these wonderful cabins when we visited Homer in March, 2016 and we chose them again for our visit with our extended family in May! Our group rented all three cabins to accommodate 12 people. The most important thing for me is comfortable beds and theirs were definitely comfortable! All of the cabins were super clean, beautifully decorated, have well-equipped kitchens, soft fluffy towels, and again - Nice, Comfortable Beds. The owners, Kellie and Bob are wonderful to work with - so friendly, caring, and helpful. They gave us a lot of information about things to do in Homer, including offering free use of the health club with beach access! We would definitely stay again! Thank you, Kellie and Bob! We all enjoyed our stay in your wonderful cottages!

Ideal Homer Cabin
The Bear Canyon cottages are simply perfect. The cabins are situated on a huge, gorgeously maintained grassy field, with expansive views of the Kachemak bay. Our cottage was impressively clean down to the tiniest detail upon our arrival, and are beautifully crafted, well decorated and well stocked. Kellie was so pleasant to work with and helpful with tons of recommendations. This place has everything - views, convenience to town, comfy beds, open areas for kids to run around, and great owners. Basically it's a no-brainier. This is our new Homer spot, hands down!

My husband, 2 children and I called bear canyon cottages home for about a week and half before making a cross country move from Homer. Absolutely loved our stay here and it was a breath of fresh air working with Bob and Kellie! Very helpful and caring people! Will be visiting in the future and these guys will be our first call for lodging! Thank you for your hospitality !

Wonderful weekend getaway
​We booked this trip kind of last minute to Homer and boy did we luck out on this rental!!!Kellie one of the owners is super friendly and has TONS of knowledge and suggestions for things to do around Homer. The property is beautiful and the house was beyond our expectations. The quality of the home is by far better than most rentals and is very clean and well kept. We loved sitting outside in the evening, grilling and waiting to see some wildlife. We were actually lucky enough to see a moose one evening and were so excited!! We will definitely be "repeat customers" for this great rental!! Thanks Kellie and Bob!!

​This was our first trip to Alaska and we booked this charming and wonderful place thru VRBO. It was beyond our expectations! We found it to be warm and beautiful in a gorgeous setting. The owners were very pleasant and flexible with our additional unexpected guest. We plan another visit sometime in the near future and will plan to book this same property!! Thanks for a great vacation get away!!

5 Star Relaxation
These cottages are outside of town just enough to enjoy the peace and quiet, but minutes from the center of activities. Hosts, Kellie and Bob have inviting, pristine cottages with all the comforts---the most luxurious linens--and are most helpful with any questions of the area.( Ask in advance of your stay!!) A visit with Kellie is like family. Enjoyed our stay here more than any hotel, and plenty of privacy traveling with another couple. I truly recommend a stay here. Best "Fish and Chips" at Lands End on the Spit- very reasonable!

HomeAway/VRBO Employee Stayed here
This was a top notch cabin retreat! The pictures don't do enough justice for the amazing views and excellent conditions of the cabins. Kellie and Bob were very nice and accommodating. We had everything we needed at the cabin, and felt at home immediately upon arrival. As an employee for HomeAway/VRBO I've had the opportunity to stay at many places all over the world, this is up there on the top of my list. Already planning on coming back next year with my extended family to enjoy the pristine Alaskan beauty in Homer!!

Exceptional Comfort
We had a marvelous stay in the wonderfully modern and clean, keenly decortated cabin. Many personal touches, a very comfortable bed and privacy. All the amenties one could hope for. We had alot of family in town so it was a great retreat to relax. It is minutes from downtown and easy access. Bob and Kellie are wonderful hosts and do whatever they can to make the stay enjoyable. I highly recommend booking a stay here while in Homer. I know we will return to the cottages the next trip we make to Homer.

Wonderful Place to Stay
We loved staying here! Kellie and Bob were the nicest people and couldn't have made our stay any more comfortable. The cabins were spacious, nicely decorated and new, the beds were comfortable and the view was outstanding.
