THE ALASKAN LODGE

Baycrest Lodge is the epitome of upscale Alaska lodging.

Just 5 minutes from downtown Homer, our 15 acre property features 10 cabins that are clustered along the bluff, 550 feet above the ocean. All but our Cottonwood and Willow units have an incredible, unobstructed view of Kachemak Bay and the Kenai Mountains. 

Whether you’re enjoying a romantic getaway for two or have the whole family in tow, Baycrest offers accommodations that will suit you.

 

Besides the view, there are so many things to love about Baycrest Lodge.

Although our guest homes are all unique, there are a handful of features and amenities that we’re known for:

1. Private hot tubs. Our luxury hot tubs are the best way to relax after a long day of adventuring around Homer. Your unit’s hot tub is for your personal use only; you will not share it with other guests. Plus, they are meticulously cleaned...trust us, you won’t find cleaner hot tubs in town. Yours will be ready to use when you arrive!

2. Outdoor porches with seating. Each unit has a covered porch with outdoor seating and a natural gas grill because there’s nothing better than barbequing with an ocean view.

3. Comfortable living areas. With clean top of the line linens, leather furniture and an LED flat screen TV, you can enjoy a movie or watch your team play while staying cozy and relaxed. 

4. Full Kitchens. Our fully equipped kitchens make it easy to prepare most things that you’d cook at home. They have blenders, seasonings, pots, pans, wine glasses and more!

5. Extra fine craftsmanship. Including side tables, bed frames, and custom curtains, the Boumans (lodge builders) have carefully curated every single feature of Baycrest Lodge’s units, sourcing materials and help from local artisans and tradespeople whenever possible.

6. Fire pits and spacious lawns. At our onsite units (located at 3651 Sterling Hwy), you’ll find large fire pits, stocked with wood. Some guest homes have private fire pits while others are shared. Augustine (located at 3965 Sterling Hwy) has its own lawn and fire pit as well.

 

We will redefine “clean hotels” for you…

Alaskan lodges have great reputations across the board for providing things like unforgettable adventures and stunning views. But we’ll let you in on a little secret: they usually aren’t as clean as you might hope.

The good news is we’re completely different.

Unlike most of our competitors, we wash every layer of bedding after use. Our new laundry facility has state-of-the-art washers and dryers that are always busy. Seriously, we spend a lot of time there. But it’s worth it because we want you to have peace of mind knowing that your unit is as clean as possible. Our pillows are not reused without sanitation with every turn over. 

Our housekeeping staff is dedicated to doing great work. They often spend 3+ hours on a single unit because they are committed to getting it right. In an effort to make sure our units are sparkling clean, we require a manager to double check them before guests arrive.

To give you an idea of how serious we are about cleaning, just picture the lodge's dedicated team thoroughly checking every detail for your arrival. Yep, that’s a pretty normal scene around here.

 

Put simply, our attention to detail is unmatched.

Any of our upscale lodging options would make for a memorable and relaxing vacation, quick getaway or business trip! You won’t be able to find anywhere else in Homer with our attention to detail! That, paired with our high cleanliness standards and excellent customer service makes Baycrest Lodge the best place to stay in Alaska. Because of that, we were the BEST of HOMER 2025 and continue to be a local favorite year after year!
