About this house rental

I'll let this 2024 Guest's review start off my description:

"Homer Stunner!!
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. 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."

Playful Ravens: A Luxurious Family Retreat with Heart-Enriching Views

Welcome to Playful Ravens, an elegant family home perched above stunning views that can be enjoyed from nearly every window, the expansive deck, or while soaking in the hot tub. Located just 15 minutes from downtown Homer, this peaceful retreat offers quick access to all the charm and activities the area has to offer.

One of our favorite pastimes is watching the sunrise or sunset from the spectacular deck, and we’re sure you’ll love it too. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, warming up in the sauna, or gathering around the fire pit, this home provides countless ways to create lasting memories with family and friends.

With four spacious bedrooms, there’s plenty of room for privacy and comfort. The movie room, complete with a cozy couch which transforms into a comfortable bed and a wall of books, is perfect for streaming your favorite shows or relaxing after a day of adventures. For deeper relaxation, enjoy the four-person infrared sauna.

The fully equipped kitchen is a cook’s dream, featuring All-Clad pans, a double convection oven, and a large fridge/freezer—ideal for crafting memorable meals. And if you reel in a fresh catch during your stay, it’ll make the perfect centerpiece for dinner!

The side yard’s large fire pit is perfect for gathering around in the evenings to share drinks, stories, and lasting memories.

Playful Ravens earned its name from the air currents surrounding the bluff, creating a haven for birds. Eagles, ravens, and hawks often soar and play on the breezes—nature at its finest.

The Master Suite
The luxurious master suite features a king-sized bed, a spacious bathroom with a glass-block and tiled double shower, and a private north-facing balcony perfect for taking in the breathtaking views. It also includes a lofted seating area with a loveseat, chair, and Smart TV.

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. 👍 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!
