Absolutely beautiful views off the large deck overlooking K-Bay. Beds are very comfortable for a great nights sleep after enjoying Homer! Quiet and peaceful surroundings and just minutes from the Spit. Deborah and Michael are wonderful hosts and we would love to stay again soon!

This property was perfect for us. In early August the Fireweed is in full bloom and just beautiful. The deck view is incredible. Accommodations were as described and very comfortable for our needs.

Just my son and I. The physical location was excellent - deck provided great views, away from Homer, but close. Was spartan, but well appointed. Excellent job with decor, wth all the amenities. The only concerning area was the bathroom, which can be described as 'creative', with the elevated toilet some soft spots in the floor.

Not Clean, Musty Smelling Linens, Bathroom Not Safe

I'll start with the positives: this place has a great view of the mountains from the deck. The location was quiet and relatively convenient. One of the beds was semi-comfortable. Now the negatives: very steep narrow stairs to enter, bathroom was unsafe with the toilet on a raised pedastal and a loose wood block to use as a step stool to get onto it. Shower was wedged into a corner with a sloped roof. My husband and 13 yr old son could not stand up straight in it. The whole place smelled musty and dusty. You could see visible cobwebs and dust on the light fixtures, window frames and furniture. No dishwasher and only 3 of each dish & utensil. Sheets may have been washed, but the blankets & comforters were not. They smelled like dirty laundry. I had to go buy laundry soap & febreeze. I washed the sheets and remade the beds then sprayed febreeze on the pillows & blankets. This barely improved the smell. One of the beds was very soft & springy...not in a good way. The other was barely comfortable. The sofa bed was filthy. We found old dirty clothing folded into the bed when we opened it. The sofa bed was also extraordinarily uncomfortable. You could feel all the spings and lumps. I do not recommend this plce for anyone other than maybe college students who don't know any better/can sleep on the ground and be confortable. The cleanliness issue was really a huge disappointment, especially since Covid-19 is still raging!

If you don't mind being a little out of town, this is a lovely place to stay. It is very sweet inside with all kinds of fun touches, the beds are super comfortable and the deck was a nice place to sit and look at the bay. There are steep stairs to the front door and inside to the upstairs apartment which might be challenging for elderly visitors. We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Great property with an amazing host/owner. Deborah and Michael were welcoming, attentive yet allowed space. The property was very charming with just the right amount of "Alaska charm" expectations for a semi secluded getaway. The place was imaculate and perfectly decorated. If this property is available and you are looking for a great getaway just barely outside of Homer, this is it. Thank you Deborah and Michael for a wonderful stay!

Great location for visiting Homer. We did not spend a lot of time at the cabin as we were out on the water most days. The kitchen was nice for our coffee and breakfasts and would be great if you wanted to make meals here. The view from the deck was fantastic. But the best part for us was that we could be in Homer on the Spit in minutes. The only thing that would have made it better for us would have been if we could have made the bedroom darker. We are just not accustomed to having daylight all night long. But overall, a great place to stay with nice owners on site.

Great views and comfy beds

If you want to be able to relax in a quiet location, this is a great rental. It's a short drive into Homer but free from the congestion of tourists. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the view was amazing when the clouds lifted. I went with a friend who has some mobility issues and uses a cane. The stairs are extra steep and tall and the toilet and bathtub are raised up on platforms, so it was a bit of a challenge in terms of accessibility. We were able to manage, though, and we're planning to return again!

A very lovely place to stay. We brought most of our food and cooked at the house. The kitchen had everything we needed. Our beds were soft, comfy and loaded with warm blankets. The view varies from the garden below to the meadows and trees out to the waters of the bay. A great place to stay to get out of the hustle and bustle of Anchorage.

Great location to explore Homer

Great location to explore Homer

We enjoyed our stay here and our conversations with Deborah. The location up on the ridge has a great view and is well out of the tsunami inundation zone, which is a plus given the several possible sources of tsunamis in this area. We explored the ridge as well as town and Kachemak Bay and had a great time. The two bedroom apartment occupies part of a former horse barn (now a storage and open area) and is cozy and comfortable with a nice deck overlooking the garden, open land, and the bay. The stairs up into the apartment are slightly steeper than typical U.S. stairwells, so if you have trouble with stairs in general or hauling luggage up stairs, that might be a factor to consider. The full kitchen is great, nice to have a laundry; beds are comfy. Quiet, private location. Delightful!

Comfortable beds and fantastic view

While the house is a bit quirky (unusual bathroom and steep steps up to the loft living area) we enjoyed our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable and we slept really well even with extended daylight. We were really happy to see a moose walk through the yard about 11 pm (after the sun had set). We enjoyed the peace and quiet, sitting on the deck, and the beautiful view. We were only a few minutes from town so we had it all.

Heavenlyridge is the best lodging in Homer. Peaceful, calming location with outstanding vistas of gardens and ocean. It is close enough to the shops, restaurants, fishing docks and people! Yet far enough to enjoy solitude too.

We had a wonderful time and the view was incredible!

The house was warm and comfy. We felt pampered. The view was stunning! The first morning we woke, there was a mouse outside the house eating. He stayed for a couple hours then went on his merry way. The next few days a Yellow Crowned Sparrow came daily to sing for us! The home was easy to find, close enough to town. It had everything we needed and was quite comfortable. The bedding made me feel like I was at the Ritz! We really enjoyed our conversations Deborah & Michael! They made us feel welcome and were very helpful & informative about the area. Knew exactly where to go for your interests and places to avoid. Our stay in their home was the highlight of our trip to Alaska! We would do it again only stay longer!

Feels like home as soon as you get in the door. Has everything you need for cooking and meals. Includes washer and dryer. Perfectly sized for 2-4 people. Deck with an amazing view of the bay and the owner's garden. When we were there there were two sandhill cranes which seemed to be spending the summer in the owner's yard.

Deb and Mike were really wonderful hosts. The place was extremely comfortable, the views were amazing, and the place was the best we could hope for. The rooms were super clean and the beds were great, the kitchen had all we needed, and the deck had great views (as did our room). We got to talk with Deb and Mike about the area and some of the critters walking around. The cranes were around and while on the deck they flew so close I could have reached out to them. Really a great place and so affordable that we'll be trying to stay with them again when we head back to Homer. Thanks Deb and Mike for a great time!

This rental is so much more than what the pictures show. It is so cute and well kept with amazing views and truly beautiful decor. This was by far my family's favorite rental during our 9 day trip to Alaska. Mike was an amazing host and Deb has done a wonderful job decorating the rental. The views from the deck are absolutely amazing! EVERYTHING that you could need is there! Thank you for sharing your beautiful rental and property with us!

Mike & Deb were wonderful hosts. The house was very well maintained with amazing views! Nice place to relax after a long day of fishing, hiking and sightseeing. Mike & Deb answered any questions we had. The affordability of the house enabled us to do/see more while we were there. It was nice not having to eat out all the time. We had four adults in our party and were very comfortable. We will definitely return next time we visit Alaska! Thanks Mike & Deb for amazing memories!
