Best Things Nearby:
Nearby- Before we got to the lodge, we stayed at Land's End Resort (907/235-2500)in Homer, which is a really nice place. They have a restaurant and the best part is their location - right at the end of the Homer spit where the views of Kachemak Bay are stupendous. Our rooms were comfortable and clean, the service was prompt and friendly, and there were Alaskan photos on the walls that told the story of Homer town. All in all, I would stay there again. There is a ton of stuff to see on the "spit" and it is a great place to shop. The Pratt Museum in Homer town is well worth a visit. It is small, but what a lot of displays they have.
After visiting the lodge, we came back to Homer and spent some time out of town. We went horseback riding with Trail's End Adventures and had a very nice day with the local cowboy - character Mark Marette. Next time we go back to Homer, we will go on an overnight trail ride to some more remote areas. His phone is 907/235-6393.

The cabins built by hand from local driftwood.
The food.

The quiet. They only take eight guests at a time.
The surroundings - complete wilderness with a few scattered summer cabins nearby. The lodge is inside the State Park.
The people. The owners, the crew, and the guides.
Resort Experience:
It's like being in heaven. The cabins are super-comfortable and fit right into the hillside. We felt like the Robinson Crusoe family with first-class luxury and service. We felt so welcome and we had so much fun!
