Wonderful Cabin

We were given very prompt help with a chirping smoke alarm on a high ceiling that needed a new battery. Our stay was great, the property is great. So is the view. One minor issue--no dressers for clothes. But no big deal. We would be happy to stay here again.

Great, quiet spot for easy Homer access.

This property was great for our group! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, and we loved being able to watch the birds, bunnies, and moose! Ample space to hang out with each other and apart from each other. The windows all had dark out shades which worked great (only improvement would be to add curtains for full black-out). Additionally, one of the bedrooms did not have a door, and that would have been nice to have a real curtain or better block off. Otherwise, amazing stay!

Spacious and homey log cabin

This is the second time we have stayed in this house. It is lovely, comfortable, pleasant, roomy, and great for families with kids. Big kids enjoyed staying in the loft, the kitchen was well equipped, the jet tub was a good alternative to a jacuzzi, and the leaving room was a nice hang out place. Tom is flexible, friendly, and very responsive! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

At home in Homer Alaska

Excellent property in all respects. Outstanding panoramic views from a high ridge looking out over Honer Spit and the ocean. We had a moos with two calves that were "residents" on the property daily. I would definitely return to this rental.

Beautiful home! Thank you for sharing with us! Enough sleeping areas so every one has their own space. We had 8 people (3 families) and everyone loved their rooms. The view was incredible. The deck was great! Great location to be close to Homer, yet not in town. We had mamma moose and baby in the yard twice and saw lots of moose between the house and town.

Beautiful cabin with and amazing view!

We came to Homer AK with our adult kids…there were 6 of us so we needed a place to accommodate all of us comfortably…Diamond Ridge fit the bill. Absolutely beautiful cabin with views of Kachemak Bay. 3 beds and 3 baths so everyone had their own space. Well stocked kitchen with large dining area…gas grill on the wonderful deck. Would definitely stay here again…heck, I wish I lived there!

Great house!

We loved our stay at Diamond Ridge! The property was perfect for our family of six. The location was great (10 min to town) and the views were beautiful. I had two questions during our stay and Terri got back to me immediately. The kids (teens) had enough space to escape the adults:). We all enjoyed spending time on the deck taking in the views!! Highly recommend!
