Amazing Views & Relaxing Property
The photos did not do justice to this property. Great location and Joyce, the owner, checked on us after arrival. Just a nice added touch along with some raspberry jam from the yard. The views were amazing. If we ever get back to Homer, we would definitely stay here again and again!!!
