About this property

Canyon Creek Cabin

The Canyon Creek Cabin is nestled among tree foliage next to a bustling creek that could make you forget any of the stresses of life. The private deck off the back has a great view of Kachemak Bay. This two-story, plus loft, the secluded cabin boasts a full kitchen and sitting area on the main level, a private bedroom on the lower level with French Doors and a large picture window, as well as a sitting area and full bath. The third story bedroom loft is perfect for reading or relaxing while taking in the sensational views.

Beautiful Oasis in Homer

We greatly enjoyed out stay at this charming VRBO in Homer. You access the cabin down a marvelous outdoor staircase through the gardens. The cabin is charming, and both bedrooms look out at spectacular views through the tress. There is a hot tub in a planted green house on the property, where guests are invited to unwind. The owners were communicative, and made the stay a pleasure!

Amazing Location

We had a great night staying at this cabin in the woods. The check in/out was seemless and easy. Communication was wonderful. The cabin was nice and clean. It has a TON of natural light and the location/views are to die for. I LOVED the rock path and the porch swing on the deck. We had a great stay.

Where Rustic Treehouse Meets Whimsical Cabin!

This place is paradise. The views are spectacular. Evelyn is very responsive to texts, etc. Accurate description that this is not for those w/ mobility issues (long walk on gravel to get to place, steep stairs to attic bedroom, etc). We can't wait to return!!

A treehouse with a view

We enjoyed our stay. The host was very responsive and helpful. The house is like a little treehouse which the kids loved. Home was well equipped. While it’s positioned closer to the highway, we didn’t hear traffic. Caution with larger groups-only 1 bathroom and the space is smaller. Beautiful views of the bay out the windows and a well maintained deck, made for a quaint oasis to return to after a day of exploring. Would return.

Not as advertised

Beautiful location, getting to the cabin not described. 20-30 deep stairs, short walk thru unlit grassy area then more stairs, one stair was not connected, almost feel off when stepped on. No way to get luggage up or down stairs once inside.

Not Pet Friendly

I booked this property specifically so I could bring my dogs with me on a weekend vacation with some friends. The booking said pet friendly and even charged a hefty fee for bringing pets. I messaged the property manager after I made the booking to let them know who is coming and that I will have my two dogs. They responded saying that they don't allow dogs. It was too late to cancel with a refund. After I explained that I only booked because it stated it was pet friendly and it charged extra, she said she would make an exception. After I arrived, the property manager texted me more rules about the dogs which I wish I had known before. It seems every day of my stay there was another rule about the pets. She also had her pitbull puppy running around the unleashed. After I checked out, she saw there was dog hair on the sheets and left a nasty message saying I ruined them. There was also a couple other things on the property that were not great: bedroom door didn't shut, dining room table leaf broken, door handle to patio fell apart (she blamed me for). Tables were tiny and no room for all 5 guests to sit together, although there is a nice sized picnic table on the balcony if the weather is good. Bathroom is really tight. On a good note. The views are amazing. It's right next to a creek and all you can hear is the water. Plenty of parking and easy to find. The deck was almost worth the hassle.

The cabin was beautiful

Pictures could have been much better because we didn't understand the layout of the house at all. The views were great, the cabin had a fun rustic theme. There were a few maintenance issues, such as the railing coming off. The host was very helpful with any issues she could help with. It was right off the highway which made it really easy access, while making it far away from anyone else. It was really nice but we didn't know what to expect because the pictures didn't do it justice at all. We are glad we went out on a limb without being able to see all of it.

About the host

Hosted by Evelyn Harden

Host profile image
Evelyn purchased Alaska Adventure Cabins LLC in June of 2020. Although it was coming home since she was born here into a homesteading family years ago--but it is so much more. This is the beginning of a dream. The reviews and comments of the guests are very important as we continue to increase the opportunities for the guests' enjoyment. Our goal is to provide beautiful, comfortable accommodations the enhance your vacation.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful property is located in Homer, very close to amenities and tourist activities, but very private on the side of the hill, overlooking the Kachemak Bay and surrounding mountains. Guests frequently report whale and bird watching from the deck, as well as frequent wildlife sightings.

What makes this property unique

Along with a 280 degree view of the bay with the plush green landscape with groomed trails and photo opportunities, you enjoy a large deck equipped with furniture and a BBQ, where you socialize while watching a sunset, watching eagles play on the wind and moose will mosey past. (You are safe.) Great photo ops as you walk our summer trails and enjoy the plush green nature.
