Charming Three Bedroom Home on a Quiet Street in Town: Pioneer Inn Guesthouse

Come visit us at The End of the Road Inn! This three bedroom house is perfect for couples traveling together, families, or just people who like space! The connected living, dining, and kitchen area are spacious yet cozy and invite visiting while while cooking. There is complementary WiFi, a flat screen television in the living room and another in the master bedroom. A handmade waterfall with local sea life and a cozy electric fireplace make for relaxing background noise and great atmosphere.

The comfortable bar is great for visiting while cooking or for a quick meal on the go. There is plenty of seating for mealtimes and visiting! The table seats six and bar seats three, as well as a couch, armchair, and ottoman. A separate laundry room features a washer and dryer, iron, and ironing board; and there are plenty of detergents and fabric softeners in the cupboards!

The kitchen is fully stocked with a coffee pot and grinder, electric kettle, toaster, blender, knives and cooking utensils, full set of silverware, coffee mugs, water/ wine/ champagne/ martini glasses, pots, pans, cutting boards, bowls, platters, tupperware and paper plates for picnics, as well as cooking basics like coffee, tea, flour, sugar, oil, and spices. Just ask - we probably have it!

The three bedrooms are fully made-up with linens, extra blankets, and a large selection of board games for family fun. We have a pack-n-play, high chair, and other baby items such as strollers upon request. The first bedroom features a comfy queen bed, full closet, and an ocean theme. The second bedroom includes a double-over-double bunk bed, full closet, and dresser. The master bedroom has a full bed, sliding glass door out to the large backdeck and yard, and a 42" flat screen television for relaxing after a busy day enjoying Homer! The guest bathroom includes a bathtub and the master bath has a shower.

There is a large driveway out front with plenty of parking for at least three vehicles, a dog house for your pet, front and side porches, and a large back deck with outdoor seating and a propane grill for enjoying your fresh catch or just kicking back with a glass of wine in the backyard. Come on over - we can't wait to meet you!!

Interaction with guests
I am available anytime by phone or email, and can make recommendations on dining and recreation and assist with booking.

The neighborhood
Our home is located in a family-friendly neighborhood on a quiet, dead end street minutes from the heart of Homer.

Getting around
We have a large driveway with parking for three or more vehicles, boat, or RV. We're minutes from the heart of Homer, and 5 minutes from the airport and the Spit.

Taxi from the airport will be five to $10. It is less than a mile walk to museums, restaurants, and shops. The Spit is a 5 to 10 minute drive. Unfortunately there is not a public bus.

Home in Homer
We had an excellent stay in Homer and even got a few sunny and warm days in August. Our host was very responsive and eager to help us really enjoy what Homer has to offer. Questions were answered quickly and suggestions were provided for nearby things to do. The home is located on a quiet street in an established neighborhood that was close to restaurants, attractions, and grocery shopping. Our large family of 6 used all the bedrooms and we were not cramped for space. Kitchen and baths were well stocked with towels and necessities. It was great house to use as our homebase in Homer, which is a great place to visit. I miss that seafood already. 5 stars!! Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property description and photos are accurate, the place is clean and smells good without being overly scented, and is a good value for the price. We were two couples and it was a big bonus to have two full bathrooms. The host was very nice. There is helpful area info in a big binder. The kitchen was well stocked, including some spices, coffee, etc. There is a little end of season wear and tear, but it would not prevent us from staying here or recommending to others.

Nice house, good location, great host
The house is accurately and fully described in the About This Property section above so there’s not a lot I could add about that. What I can add is that the host, Lila, is what makes this such a good choice to stay. I would rebook this location again anyway but her helpfulness is what makes this a no-brainer.

Spacious and Cozy Home
Lila is a great host, as she communicated well and often to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Even better, this home comfortably provided 6 adults and a puppy an awesome accommodation during our Homer visit. The location is just minutes from the restaurants and the Spit. Thank you Lila for an amazing stay!

Blissful sleep, lovely home away from home in Homer
Our hostess Lila is a great communicator and welcoming hostess, offering to bring over games or kitchen gadgets, etc. We had everything we needed for our two night stay, but we appreciated the offer! The house has lovely light in the kitchen/dining/living area, with comfortable seating for lounging and relaxing. The 3 bedrooms had ample "blackout" shades and drapes and wonderful mattresses, for a very comfortable sleep. The place was very clean. If it hadn't been so stormy (rain and fierce wind) we could have easily walked to the Pioneer Avenue shops and restaurants, and even taken a bit longer walk to Fat Olive's and Bishop's Beach. As it was, we drove to those places and to the spit. Thanks Lila! I definitely would choose this house again, and reommend to friends.
