WE had a wonderful return visit. Steve and Julie greeted us like we were old friends. The rooms were cozy and very clean. The breakfasts were delicious. When we visit Homer again, we will not stay anywhere else!
4.8 out of 5Great stay at Crane's Rest B&B.
August 18, 2012
We spent 5 1/2 weeks traveling Alaska and Canada. This was one of two excellent B&Bs. Quiet, country location. We would highly recommend this place. We had the best breakfast here. It was enjoyable visiting with Steve and Julie. They were very helpful in providing information about the whole Homer area. It was obvious that they enjoyed what they were doing, so they made our stay very pleasant. The only thing missing was that the cranes didn't show up the days we were there.
5 out of 5Great stay at Crane's Rest.
August 15, 2012
Had a great two nights at Crane's. Julie and Steve made us feel at home and were very accommodating. Plenty of fishing and hunting stories to go on and on about! Our first morning had a scheduled fishing trip at 430am, so we couldn't join for breakfast, but a breakfast to go was ready for us in the fridge in the morning! The second mornings breakfast was excellent. The location was very nice, peaceful, with a great view. The sandhill cranes even stopped by a couple times in the yard to feed and show off. We hope to make this a staple B&B for our trips down on the peninsula. THANK YOU!
