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)

Cozy Cabin Retreat

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Soldotna, AK

We bought these 4.5 acres so we could build our new home on the back lot while living in the small house in the front. We were thrilled to find that the small (slightly ugly) 12x12 cabin on the property was in great shape and could be used for hosting. Initially, we used it only for our personal guests, but soon we were excited to share it with travelers visiting Alaska's beautiful Kenai Peninsula. Fishermen, backpackers and local Alaskans have enjoyed our cabin since we've owned it. We hope to update the {ugly} outside eventually, but until then, we are remembering: it's just looks -- it's the inside that counts! :)Learn more about this land:Come here to enjoy the beauty of Alaska from your own little cabin! Our clean & cozy dry cabin is located conveniently between the famous Kenai River and the Kasilof River, just 10 minutes south of Soldotna. The Homer Spit, Exit Glacier, Cooper's Landing and many other gorgeous attractions are within about a 2 hour drive. The Kasilof Beach with an amazing view of the inlet and mountains is only a 10 minute drive. You will have your own heated cabin with a private outhouse.

Foster's Alaska Cabins

My family started the development of the property back in the 1980's. Since then it has been narrowly used and kept in pristine shape. My Uncle Gary is the primary person who kept up with the property and he's the type of person that pays close attention to detail. Cyndi and I are honored to have taken over the property in 2016 and we hope to always leave a legacy that Uncle Gary will be proud of. Learn more about this land:This is a quaint 140 SF cabin on the property that has 4 bunks for people that are just looking for a nice warm bed. This is one of 5 cabins we operate that are primarily for fishing as they are right on Beaver Creek which flows into the mighty Kenai River. Boats at the dock take people out fishing for salmon on the daily in the summer. The cabin has full electrical, heat, and a kitchenette as well. There is a small covered front porch for people to socialize on and a freezer to store your fish in if you're here for that. The cabin itself does not have running water, but the bath house only 15' away has a full shower, toilet, and sink and it's designated for the cabin guests.
