About this cabin rental
You will not be disappointed with the breathtaking scenery, exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities and the multitude of recreational, historical and cultural activities available in Homer and the surrounding area.
After arriving at the Twin Puffins (located a short 15-minute drive from downtown Homer), you can relax in the cozy cabin accentuated by warm, rich and natural golden hues of native Alaskan spruce.
The Twin Puffins features two comfy bedrooms; the Blue Bedroom has a king size bed with an en suite bathroom that has a standard size tub and shower. The Green Bedroom is available in either two twin or one king size bed configuration. A futon-style sofa in the living room is also available for additional guests. The main bathroom has an over-sized shower and is conveniently located between the bedrooms and the living room. A washer and dryer are in the cabin for your use, so you can pack light (soap is provided). The kitchen is fully equipped, including a refrigerator with a small freezer, a full-size microwave, a stove/oven and a dishwasher. Other amenities include satellite TV, a flat panel TV with surround sound and DVD player in each bedroom. In addition to the TVs in the bedrooms there is a 42' flat screen TV in the living room. The stereo in the living room can also be heard through built in speakers in the ceiling above the deck. A small selection of movies and some board games are available to keep you entertained if the weather keeps you indoors. Wired internet and WiFi are available.
From the living room, French doors open on to a large wooden deck; the perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the view of Kachemak Bay, the Kenai Mountains, Grewingk Glacier, as well as a peaceful green pasture with a large pond. Depending on the time of year, you may see beautiful wildflowers such as the brilliant fields of fuchsia-colored fireweed, or pick fresh raspberries along the driveway. Homer is also a Birder's delight. In addition to the migrating shorebirds in the Spring, there are many birds in the area surrounding the cabin, among them are the Golden-crowned Sparrow (the 'oh-dear-me' bird) with it's distinctive call, Bald Eagles and other raptors, and Sandhill Cranes are often seen. Keep your camera ready as wildlife, such as moose and the occasional black bear or coyote, may be seen. Moose seem to enjoy an evening swim in the pond.
Whether you are in Homer on business, sabbatical, vacation or honeymoon, the Twin Puffins offers a private and secluded getaway with all the modern conveniences of home.

We were blown away by how nice and comfortable The Twin Puffins cabin was. Exceeded any place we other VRBO we have stayed at. Had the opportunity to meet Carlton, the owner, and truly enjoyed getting to know him.
Beautiful views of the glaciers and bay!
My family has found our home away from home.
Could not ask for nicer people.

Twin Puffins is an extraordinary place! It is located on a beautiful hillside. The property is well maintained and manicured. It has easy access off the main road. It is exceptionally clean with some awesome decor. It has all the amenities than some homes. The view from the kitchen/den/deck area is breathtaking. It is surrounded by green vegetation and a pond below. The surrounding area has ample opportunities for various outdoor activities. I would highly recommend Twin Puffins in your next travels.

The hosts are the best!!! They welcomed us with super friendly and informational text messages, and responded quickly to our messages. The cabin was in immaculate condition and beautiful designed and decorated. A log cabin with all the modern conveniences of home. It overlooks pine trees and the Kachemak bay with the Kenai mountain range behind it... a beautiful view that changed with the movement of the sun! The seven mile drive out of Homer was great for seeing moose. We saw a bull and a cow with two calves. It was great for photos!

Our six nights at Twin Puffin were perfect. The weather was cool and cloudy, which was great for our hiking in the area. There are so many wonderful trails in the area. The cabin’s set up was great. Two bedrooms with king beds and two baths. The best feature though was the large deck, with Grand, unobstructed views of the bay and mountain range. Wow!!! The kitchen is large with a table for 6, which is open to the living area. Both areas look out to that marvelous view!

We've rented quite a few places and this was the best! The view, the location, the deck, the privacy, and the cleanliness! It is also the little things that made it so great. We have never stayed at a place with so many condiments or with a grill that was spotless and ready to use. We hope to come back and highly recommend it to all.

This is the perfect little getaway for two couples. Fantastic views, great little home, comfortable beds, easy access to amenities and activities yet with privacy. The building feels brand new, the small kitchen is well equipped. Margie is already planning a return visit with her family.

We spent 4 nights at this home, the views were amazing, it was quiet, yet a short drive into Homer and all it has to offer. It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed.

We loved this cabin in Homer and will for sure be back again someday. The views are amazing and the wildlife around the cabin is great too.
The cabin itself is cozy and the beds are very comfortable. The owners however, deserve 10+++ stars. I am allergic to a specific type of laundry soap and to be sure I didn’t have any issues, they washed the sheets several times before our stay. It was above and beyond. I would highly recommend this place.

Beautiful Cabin with an Amazing View
We traveled all over Alaska and the Twin Puffins was definitely our favorite place to stay. It was immaculately maintained with all the amenities of home. A beautiful place to just hang out and take in the amazing views! The plants surrounding the cabin were beautiful. We were close enough to the activities we had planned to do but far enough away to feel like we were in a private, secluded location. Thank you for the fresh raspberry jam. It was delicious! We would definitely recommend staying at the Twin Puffins during your Alaska visit!

Incredible views
I can’t say enough nice things about this place. The owners were very responsive and helpful. The check in process was a breeze. After checking out, the owner let me know that my toddlers left their stuffed animals at the cabin, and offered to mail them back to us at home. The cabin was spotless and organized. Then there’s the view of the mountains from the cabin. It takes your breath away. Stay here! You won’t regret it.

Twin Puffins has a wonderful deck with the most amazing view of the bay, mountains, and glaciers! Every detail has been thought of in this cabin! Games, list of local activities, condiment s, tea/coffee, soap…etc. Location is perfect - with town a few minutes away. Can’t wait to stay here again!!

I've stayed here 3 times from 2009 until 2021.
Each time we have stayed at many other locations from Anchorage, Seward, Cooper Landing, Denali, Healy & Homer. This cabin is hands down the best of all of our stays consistently with each trip.
The hosts do a great job maintaining the place and offering all the touches of home.
Thanks again

The Twin Puffins was the perfect retreat in Homer for our family of four. The owners were always quick to respond to me and very helpful. This immaculately clean property has everything you need - great, covered grill; cozy sitting/living area; well stocked kitchen with pans and utensils; partly covered deck with unbelievable views (even in the rain!); private and convenient location surrounded by nature (and the occasional moose!). It was hard to leave this little slice of heaven!

Homer Stay
If you are looking to stay at a super nice place with great views, don’t pass this place up. It has everything you need for whatever your adventures are. On our last morning while we were packing up, a moose came around the cabin, stopped at porch for a few seconds, looked at us and then went on down the hill. AMAZING!
