About this house rental

Playful Ravens is an elegant family home with 'heart enriching' views from most windows, it's expansive deck and hot tub. Located 12 minutes from downtown Homer, this retreat gives you quick access to everything Homer has to offer. Four spacious bedrooms give you ample privacy and room to spread out. A movie room with comfortable couch and loads of books is a great place to catch the latest Netflix, or to visit with family and friends in our four person Sauna. The kitchen is a cook's dream. All Clad pans, convection oven, and a large fridge/freezer make this a great place to cook memorable meals during your stay in Homer! Hopefully you will have luck fishing and bring home the main course yourself!!

A huge fire pit graces the side yard, perfect for a cozy bonfire around which to share drinks and memories during your time at Playful Ravens.

We call the home Playful Ravens because the air currents surrounding the bluff that this home sits on create the perfect spot for birds to soar and to play on the breezes. We regularly see Eagles, Ravens, and Hawks swirling on the updrafts.

The Master Suite has an incredibly comfortable king sized bed, a large bathroom and glass block/tiled shower area with two shower heads, a north-facing balcony large enough for sitting, plus a lovely, lofted reclining area with a love seat and chair facing the remarkable views of Homer, the Homer Spit with a flat screen Smart TV if you ever tire of the view. There is also a Water Rower rowing machine if you need to catch a quick and effective workout during your stay.

On the main floor with the Dining Room, Living Room, and Kitchen there is a bedroom with a full sized bed Murphy Bed and a full bath with a tub/shower. The lower level has two bedrooms with queen sized log frame beds, the movie room - a large room with a sleeper sofa and a wall of bookshelves, and the laundry. The lower-level bathroom has a toilet, a urinal, a sink and a shower. Our home has in floor heating and a Blaze King wood stove.

The spacious deck has an expansive view, with four adirondack chairs and a hot tub to help you enjoy it. There is also a grill located on the deck off the kitchen.

Summer visitors regularly see bear, moose, sandhill cranes, and eagles at our home.
There are lovely hiking trails only minutes away.

Everything was just great with the property. From the time we arrived until we left. We had 8 people and there was plenty of room and beds. The view off the back deck is absolutely stunning. It over looks the Homer Spit with Peaks and Glaciers in the backdrop. The kitchen was great we made several meals and had everything we needed. Definitely would recommend.

I've been coming to Homer for over 30 years and this property has the best view of the Bay that I've seen. The well equipped property was a delightful home base for our family. There were some minor issues, but the owner and property manager responded quickly and forcefully to resolve the issues. Having coffee in the spa overlooking a glacier does not get old. Enjoying the fire pit in the evening also added to the overall experience. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a special Homer experience.

We had an amazing time in this beautiful home! It felt so comfy and cozy that we never wanted to leave! The deck with the hot tub is so relaxing at the end of the day, the kids loved relaxing it in too! We saw a Moose with 2 babies right off of the deck on numerous occasions. This home had plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy! Paula and Becky were great to work with! They checked in with me a couple times to make sure everything was going well. We all hope to be back soon!

We were very happy with our stay. The house is as advertised. Keep in mind that the master is a loft, no doors for privacy or blackout shades for the long days. Everything was great, even when we needed batteries for the tv remote, manager showed up with new ones. đź‘Ť The view could not be any better, gorgeous!!

From the minute we walked into this beautiful cabin we felt at home. We had been on the road for over a week staying in random hotels and frightening places. We felt like we won the jackpot! Everything we could possibly want was right there!! We just brought in groceries and prepared wonderful meals in the fully stocked kitchen. My 5 sisters and me ranging in age from 72-59 were so comfortable everywhere we sat. We spent most of our days and evenings on the beautiful deck overlooking the most beautiful glacier mountains. The amount of photos I took was incredible. Every last one more beautiful than the next. I loved that sunset was not until after 11 every night. I was nervous to use hot tub as I thought it would be hard to open and close even though the directions were very clear. What a mistake!! We could have spent so much time in there!! What a glorious time was spent in there looking at the mountains. Any question I had was very quickly answered. Thank you, I can’t wait to come back again!
