We are a sucker for their Double Green salad (a twist on Caesar)! Their burgers are delicious as well as their wings. A family-friendly sports bar with plenty of food options!

Just talking about Senor Panchos has us salivating. Their biggest secret? They have the BEST burgers in town! Aside from that, their chipotle, mexican rice soup, and fajitas stand out to us. However, we have not been disappointed by any of their food. We think they put a magic spell on all their dishes or something ;)

GO ON WEDNESDAY! Wednesday in the park is what our children call a "festival". It feels like that! Amazing food vendors and local goods with live music, a playground, and a beautiful fishing and walking spot. We love Wednesday market and know you will, too!

Their Lance Mackey breakfast and biscuits and gravy make mornings amazing! Our favorite place for breakfast on the peninsula. Aside from that, they have amazing burgers and delicious pizza. Finish it off with a scoop of their ice cream! We are lucky to have Rocky's Cafe out in Kasilof :)

Delicious mead--sparkling and non-sparkling alike! As you walk in, you will notice the honey grounds next door! All ingredients are locally sourced and if you have not tried sparkling mead, YOU MUST.

City/town information
Homer is incredible and a must-see. We recommend visiting Fat Olives for pizza, Sweatgale Meadery for a local and unique drinking experience, The Salty Dog Saloon for a world famous bar experience, shopping the Spit, and taking the Danny J over to Halibut Cove.

Another favorite is Seward, AK. The water is pristine and the wildlife in plenty. We recommend eating at the Seward Brewing Co. and hiking Lowell Point with family or for leisure beauty, Mt. Marathon for those in need of a workout, and Caines Head for the adventurers!

Sightseeing
This is a once-in-a-lifetime sort of experience! Take the Danny J across the bay from Homer to view a tiny, car-less town on the water.

A glorious lake with glacial waters. Two different trail options, one for those in need for a workout (the lookout) or the lower trail for family visit and beach fun. Usually pretty windy on the beach, so bring a jacket!

Что взять с собой
Varying weather!
Our location can get windy, but don’t let the wind deter you from beach play! Staying close to the bluff at the beach shelters from the wind and provides a great area for play. You will want to come ready for various climate.
If you are traveling to Homer or Seward, be prepared for cold winds. A windbreaker and/or warm jacket is a must! For our rental, you will want a pair of flip flops, running shoes (if you are not a runner, you just might get the urge on our beach), and rain boots.
*Don't forget suncreen: even when cold, you can still sunburn!
