Bay Avenue Inn0

This place was full of charm, and its really clean, close to the spit and it was the best place we stayed and we stayed in several cities and the host is just wonderful, she had chelsie there after the first day she had to leave for family emergency but I loved it. If i came to alaska again, I'd stay there and do all the boating, fishing, etc at the spit! Could walk to there actually! Beautiful charming place and great value and Clean clean clean!!!

nothing it was best of all I think!!

This has a lot of the qualities you want in a good B&B. Comfy beds with nice linens, selection of high quality breads, jams, yogurt and cereals for breakfast, nice coffee, etc. Homer is not large, you can drive almost anywhere in town in 10 minutes or less from the B&B. Friendly hostess (this is a traditional B&B, if you prefer not interacting with others, this would not be a good fit for you).

The only mirror in the room is the small one above the sink.

Of all the places we stayed in Alaska, this was the most memorable. Lori, the host was very warm and welcoming. Our kid instantly clicked with her. She gave our kid books to read, activity books to work with, among other things. The dog Yaro was a good source of entertainment for our family. The breakfast was mostly the items you would have at home (bread, jam, oatmeal packets, waffles). It was self serve (make your own eggs sort of thing) but it was always there. So we could eat early or late and even have some of the breakfast items as a snack. The madeleines from the local bakery were amazing. The rooms were comfy. The location was nice - good views from the living room area. You will still need a car to go to the harbor to grab local food. All in all, we would highly recommend this place if you are staying in Homer.

The breakfast was well laid out and easy to use everything. The many different people we met were great and happy to be there and share about their experiences that they were having in the area. It was clean and Lori would check in with us when we saw her and make sure we were taken care of. The property was beautiful with views of the beach and mountains and glaciers. The deck was a nice lace to hang out and enjoy the surroundings.

Could use softer pillows and an extra blanket. Other than that it was really wonderful. Great place to be.

The bay view was amazing!! An eagle flew right in front of my window!! The owner and staff were so nice and accommodating. The selection of breakfast foods was great, and the additional fruit bowls were perfect for me. The location was great for a short walk or a quick taxi ride to the places of interest, and I really appreciated the host taking me to my bear tour and then to the bus pick-up point. I will definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone that is traveling to the area!

That I didn't get to stay longer and enjoy more of the area!

The quiet setting with a view; the owner; the dog; the comfortable feeling. The innkeeper accommodated our groups special needs and we were so grateful.

None of this was a deal breaker for us. We would stay again: Perhaps due to covid, there was not a hot breakfast option unless you cooked eggs yourself. It's nice to cook what you want, but I'd rather have a few warm muffins or a few hot eggs made for me if I'm booking a B&B. Upstairs bedroom needed a cloth or 1/4" roll to block out all summer light---blinds were just barely short. Also could hear music at night from the bedroom below. It wasn't loud, but a pair of earplugs would've been nice touch in that room because the rest of everything is so quiet and serene.

Beautiful, quiet location that looked out over the Katchemak Bay. Host was friendly and amazingly accommodating as we were halibut fishing and she let us use her freezer to keep fish in. Nice big kitchen for cooking meals was available, as well as an outside grill. Lots of places to relax both inside and out.

No complaints at all.

Best accommodations we had in our 2 week stay in Alaska. Helpful and friendly owner. Suggested a room change that was to our benefit. Shared her extensive knowledge of the area. Perfect location at base of Homer spit. Beautiful view. Nice continental breakfast.

No complaints. Best place we stayed in Alaska.

Very clean with a relaxed vibe. Full kitchen and living room area for relaxing, and great view of the Homer Spit. Lots of good breakfast options, including farm fresh eggs, if you want to make an omelette. Private bathroom as part of bedroom suite. Comfy beds and quiet atmosphere. Very friendly owner and staff.

Nothing to “not like”.

Great direction. Great, quiet, and beautiful location. Wonderful breakfast layout set up to serve yourself so no time pressure. Coffee was ready to make so I could make it at 4am when I woke! Comfortable, safe, kind…and a wonderful dog that never barked and loved on me as long as I let her!

Nothing. Everything was excellent.
