The Crane’s Rest B&B is located in a quiet little side street on the hillside above Homer and provides sweeping views of the Homer Spit and the mountains and glaciers across Kachemak Bay. The rooms are beautifully decorated and my Queen size bed was so comfortable, it was hard to get up in the morning. Delicious breakfast are served in the upstairs breakfast/dining area and it was delightful to watch the two adult Sandhill Cranes with their little chick feeding right on the lawn, below. Sitting on the upstairs deck or in the dining area with a nice glass of wine and good conversation with the hosts and other guests provided an opportunity to relax after a full day of sight seeing. Carol and Steve are very congenial hosts and love to exchange stories with their guests and provide information of the many attractions in the Homer area. I very much enjoyed their hospitality, generosity, and friendship and would definitely stay there again if I have the opportunity to back to Homer, Alaska. Karin Bredfeldt, California

My sister and I really enjoyed our stay. The food was excellent and Julie had great ideas for things for us to do. Julie's Mom was there visiting and she also was a great host. You can tell that they enjoy doing what they are doing. We would definitely stay there again in the future. Karen from Seward.

We stopped at the Crane's Rest B&B after travelling all across Alaska and Yukon. It was definitely the best B&B we had come across. Julie and Steve are very nice people who are doing their best to make your stay very pleasant. The view from their house is great and so is the morning breakfast. We highly recommend this place.

This B&B was in a great setting. The grounds were nice and a beautiful view. The hosts were very friendly and very helpful. It was a great stay although the room was a little small.
