Lazy J Ranch

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents40 acres · Homer, AK

My grandparents, Stany and Nelda Jones homestead here, my father was just a toddler when they moved here with his family from Texas. They homestead this area before there were roads, and could only travel to this location via the beach and climbing the bluff. My mothers family also Homestead on the Kenai, in Ninilchik, she was born and grew up there in the small river village. When her and my dad married they continued the Jones family tradition of ranching and farming. We decided to offer our family land and share its beauty with others. Your camping spaces are on a corner of the ranch property, near the shared gazebo fire pit. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Kilcher Homestead MiracleMeadow

4 sites · Lodging, Tents5 acres · Homer, AK

A few things that make my place unique: My 5 acres is part of the famous 620-acre Kilcher Homestead, as seen on “Alaska the Last Frontier” TV show. I am the 7th of the 8 children; Atz and Otto are my brothers. There is a special feeling here vibrating in the land, and why our parents picked this spot. Full outdoor kitchen with all you need to cook and wash up; BBQ, hotplate, pure drinking water, spices, pots/pans/dishes etc. Outdoor hot shower and outhouse with great views! The atmosphere feels so pure, so silent, so wild yet comfortable. Drive-in access sometimes, or have to walk 15 minutes, and no issues with mosquitoes!!! You get to meet me and maybe other family members as you cruise around. Homer is 35 minutes away, with oodles of things to do there: great restaurants, a lap pool, fun shopping, etc. We have quite good cell reception here. Lots of options to enjoy your stay!

Seaside Farm

16 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents30 acres · Homer, AK

Seaside Farm is a 30 acre, magical, park like farm on the shores of Kachemak Bay, just outside of Homer, a few miles down from the Kilcher Homestead where I grew up in the 1940's! . Now a song bird sanctuary, with trails, lawns, gardens, trees, hay fields, and a private beach, cabins, a clover camping meadow, it was also once part of an original Alaska pioneer homestead. Although an organic farm, with hay fields, pastures, farm buildings and raspberry patch, it is also the home of hundreds of songbirds, moose, coyotes, wild hares, flocks of sandhill cranes, two sweet Morgan Horses, and an assortment of chickens. I love sharing my farm and home with travelers, and visitors seeking peace, nature, wildlife, walks on pristine beaches, and connecting with nature, in a real Alaska, original, and non touristy setting. This property has three different types accommodations: Rustic, cozy cabins (no indoor running water), a big field for tent campers only, and a few spaces reserved for 4 wheel drive vans , and similar small vehicle camping, including rooftop tents and occasionally a small pop up trailer. If you prefer camping away from the tourist crowds, you will find our soft clover meadows, surrounded by green trees and well kept lawns, a deluxe and memorable experience. The beach is a short walk down the trail, where its peaceful and private, with no motorized vehicles or noisy crowds, only the sound of the seagulls, and the waves. Van campers have a few special areas to park their vehicles, most with a stunning view of the glaciers and mountains. There is limited parking and turnaround space, and we like our farm peaceful and not too crowded to provide a special rural experience to all who visit this magical farm. It helps to call or text before you arrive to make sure we are on site and can help you with parking and other details! There are three cabins sprinkled throughout the property. Two are off grid, close to the beach, private and magical, with wood stoves. All cabins are able to use the main farm lodge amenities, just a few minutes walk away and have their own outhouses..all with amazing views! You can walk on the beach from the main lodge parking area, there is a covered camping pavilion available to all guests, a communal campfire spot and bbq grill, lovely maintained walking trails and meadows, and even wifi! We allow most types of dogs, but do ask you to contact us before booking with us, so we can let you know our rules before you travel. All dogs must be well behaved, social, on leashes and at owner's side at all times to protect our trusting wildlife from accidental harm, like our baby pheasants, moose, bunnies, and songbird nests! TOURS OPTION As the eldest of the Kilcher clan (yes, the homestead family portrayed on the "Alaska The Last Frontier" tv series), and when time allows, I'm open to give a special tour of the unique and historic Kilcher Family Homestead and original sod roofed, log cabin museum. Available only by special prior arrangement for an extra fee (donation to the museum)

Cabins near Seldovia guide

Overview

At the southwest tip of the Kenai Peninsula, Seldovia rewards the adventurous travelers who journey to its shores. Known locally as “the city of secluded charm,” Seldovia can only be reached by airplane or by ferry from Homer, but the payoff for this undertaking is big. Seldovia has beaches with spectacular views of the Cook Inlet, forest trails that begin in town, and an old-timey feel without the crowds of the other summer season hotspots on the peninsula. Popular recreational activities during Seldovia camping trips include kayaking, backpacking, fishing, birding, and wildlife viewing—look out for whales, otters, eagles, moose, and bears.

Where to go

Seldovia Surrounds

Seldovia has a few great trailheads right in town. For a panoramic lookout over Seldovia Bay, head up the Rocky Ridge Trail. For a flatter forest hike that ends in awesome views of the Cook Inlet, take the Otterbahn Trail to Outside Beach. There is also Jakolof Bay Road, a scenic 10-mile stretch of waterfront road heading out of Seldovia that is popular with mountain bikers. Book a private campsite just outside of town for a secluded tent or RV experience. Kayak rentals and fishing charters can also be found in Seldovia, from where boaters may spot orcas, beluga whales, sea otters, puffins, and other marine animals. Summer is sockeye salmon fishing season in the Cook Inlet too.

Kachemak Bay State Park and State Wilderness Park

The combined Kachemak Bay State Park and State Wilderness Park is a colossal nature reserve just east of Seldovia that contains 400,000 acres of forest and mountains and 78 miles of shoreline. Like Seldovia, there are no roads into the park, so it must be accessed by water taxi from Homer. But with backcountry campsites and a spectacular variety of trails, this remote park makes for an epic day trip or overnight excursion.

Homer Area

For more camping options on the Cook Inlet with views of the Aleutian Range, head north of Homer to the Stariski State Recreation Site or Deep Creek State Recreation Area. The latter is renowned for its razor clamming and salmon fishing. And if you are driving from Homer back to Anchorage, note that you can stop in Seward to visit Kenai Fjords National Park. Go hiking at the park’s Exit Glacier Area, or take a boat ride into the fjords from Seward Boat Harbor.

When to go

Seldovia experiences extreme seasonal differences. July temperature highs are in the low 60s with over 17 hours of daylight. In December, the highs are in the low 30s and the sun is in the sky for just six hours a day. The sweet spot for visiting this region is from June to September, when the ferries are operating on a summer schedule.
