Come Make Yourself at Home at R & R

Homer Alaska is located on the South end of the Kenai Peninsula on Kachemak Bay and it is one of the jewels of the Kenai Peninsula. It is a very picturesque setting. Whether you look to the East or to the West, the view can be breathtaking. Alaska is on the list for many to visit and sometimes it can be troubling to make the decision on where to stay. There are hundreds of Bed & Breakfast's to stay in, numerous hotels and vacation rentals to choose from. Why choose R&R; because it is as close to home as you can get while being on the road. We offer privacy, real peace and quiet; which that is hard to find now a day's, and a very convenient location when it comes to activities that you might partake in while you are visiting. We are 3.5 miles from the center of town and another 4.5 miles to the Harbor. If you just wanted to take a hike after waking up, without getting in your car, our property abuts to some of the best hiking trails Homer has to offer. Whether you want to walk one mile or five miles, all you need are your hiking boots. Most visitors want to fish while they are in Homer and although we do not offer any guided services, we have been living in the community since 1978 and operated charter boats until the late 1980's. This gives us the opportunity to point you in the direction you want to go without a fee. After recreating, you will want to eat and if you want to come home and put your fresh caught fish on the grill, you can at R&R. All the amenities are provided to do just that. But if you want to dine out, my wife is retired from working in one of the finest eateries in town and had been in the service industry for 19 years. So we still keep abreast of the local eateries that provide good food! We have tried to make R&R affordable for our visitors, especially the ones that want to stay for awhile. Our prices might seem to be low, but that doesn't reflect the condition of the accommodations. It reflects our philosophy with travel. It's a price that we wouldn't mind paying if we were traveling, and it's always nice to be pleasantly surprised. R&R is just perfect for some. We are not the fancy high end resort with a million dollar view. We are simply a quiet comfortable home away from home. I can't ever recall having one of our visitors complain about the place. So if you are coming to the Great Land and visiting Homer, please consider R&R for your stay. Keywords: Apartment, on second floor with 18 stairs to climb

Great stay
We enjoyed our time in Homer and these accommodations were perfect! It was especially nice that when we arrived into town a day early, they were willing to have us check in a day early. Liz and Billy were both very nice and we enjoyed our conversations with them!

The Perfect Place in Homer
This was one of the best VRBOs we have stayed in The hosts Liz and Billy were very personable. I can't think of anything we wanted that the place did not have! We hope to be back!! Took spectacular pictures of Bald Eagles (perched and in-flight!) and Sea Otters on our hike on Diamond Creek trail.. very close to Liz and Billy's. I also recommend the boat to..fly back excursion to Seldovia with Mako Water Taxi!!

Staying in the country close to town
Relaxing, quiet and greenery everywhere. We had a wonderful time in Homer AK! Liz and Billy were very easy to talk to and gave us great insight on where to see moose, places to eat and Billy was an expert on fishing and gave us a lot of information; which was very much appreciated. Head to the rental first much to our surprise Liz had more things making it more like home then you would think. Coffee beans to grind fresh coffee, filter water, bug spray, sunscreen, laundry soap and fabric softner, kleenx you name it she has it there for you; also brochures information about the area and things to do. All you need is your clothes & slippers. Thanks again Liz for surprising us with a bottle of champagne and fluted glasses for our anniversary it was so kind of you. Billy thanks for the conversations, we enjoyed them. We really enjoyed our stay.
