Now, two days later, clear skies and a beautiful sunrise at 9:56 a.m. I used to lived in Homer (HHS Class of 1981) and on days like this … I miss it.
-Gene & Melinda Birky" text[2] = "What a beautifully magnificent place to spend 3 nights of our honeymoon. We filmed the entire sunset our first night … the colors were amazing & we had a clear view of Mt. Augustine Volcano! Enjoyed the view so much, it was hard to leave to explore the region. Homer Spit was very cool & we left our $1 bill at the Salty Dawg Saloon. We hope to come back & see it on our 10-year anniversary.
-Leah & Paul Cohen" text[3] = "In my 65 years of living, I’ve never been to such a fabulous place. Our God is such a great creator!
-Pat & Dick Springboro" text[4] = "When we think of beauty, grandeur, peace, etc., we will always think of Homer, Alaska and Alaska Adventure Cabins.
-Steve, Barbara, Laura & Kelly" text[5] = "Really nice -- staggering view.
-Jim Palmer" text[6] = "This place has absolutely a wonderful view from every window. We enjoyed our stay here and will be returning as Homer residents.
-Dawn & And" text[7] = "Quite simply – brilliant! So clean & comfortable, with stunning views. Will recommend to friends. Thank you.
-Steve/Neil Manchester" text[8] = "Loved Homer and your Caboose! It was the highlight of our 2 weeks in Alaska. We have traveled all over the world and enjoyed this view more than the Great Wall in China. We will be back…
-Terri & Barry Firlew" text[9] = "Words fail me … and that doesn’t happen too often! The ‘Moose Caboose’ is delightful. Renovations make it comfortable & the décor makes it cozy. The view is spectacular – the blues and the greens glorious. I wish we could have stayed longer.
-Joe & Linda Zimmermann" text[10] = "Wonderful evenings on the deck, drinking beer and looking at the breathtaking views across the bay. Wonderful days hiking in the State Park. Wonderful nights with a full moon glowing orange behind the mountains.
-Michael Palthern & Belinda Chevvington" text[11] = "This is the tail end of our 2 week Alaskan journey … and the highlight of it all! Our halibut charter got cancelled this morning (after we arrived at the dock at 6:30 a.m.) so we spent the day roaming the spit, exploring the back roads …We grilled steaks instead of the originally planned fish. The sun shines on us as we enjoy the magnificent views, good food & drink & great friends we’re traveling with.
-Susan & Alan Evans" text[12] = "You have a wonderful place here! The creative accommodations are second to none. The view is awesome!
-Pat Brown" text[13] = "What a wonderful place for a family reunion! We will cherish the memories.

-Nancy, Mike & Jeff Bragg Bloomington & Liz Geuss" text[15] = "Wonderful view! I can’t believe that when I woke up I looked between my feet and saw a glacier! Seeing an active volcano from the balcony was also a nice touch… P.S. Linda said the tell you how much she enjoyed the stars!
-Mike & Linda Lovington" text[16] = "We really enjoyed staying here. What a creative remodeling of a railroad car. All this space in Alaska can be jarring for those of us used to being packed into small apartments. The Moose Caboose was perfect for us – snug and efficient!
-Dan, Sarah, Molly" text[17] = "Our family couldn’t have imagined a cuter place to stay at! We were planning to go shopping once, but we couldn’t tear ourselves away from the view from the porch. We all liked the ‘Forest Gump’ CD and the gas grill was fun to grill steaks on.

-Jim and Di" text[19] = "How wonderful it has been to share the fruits of a grand vision, realized with hard work, attention to detail and – very clearly – great ingenuity!

-William & Rosila Mercer, Bill, Jane & Kelsey Mercer" text[23] = "Mere words do not do this place justice! The eagles soar, the seals swim, the boats race by and the snow-capped mountains inspire. If there is a more unique or beautiful place, to stay, we have yet to see it and doubt such a place exists … If you can’t be happy here, you can’t be happy anywhere!
-Katherine Pledcer, Marian Barnes, Claudia Comerford, Janice Hamm, Matthew Whitfield" text[24] = "We loved the idea of converting an old boat into a house so much that we are planning to look into doing it ourselves …spent a lot of time on the ship’s decks and saw our share of bald eagles and moose.

-John and Marie Louderback" text[26] = "We are covered with reddish welts from pinching ourselves to be sure this wondrous place is not in our dreams. We’ve never, in our years of traveling as a family, been more thrilled with our choices.

-Jim & Mechelle Bates" text[28] = "The Double Eagle is absolutely the most unique place I’ve ever stayed! Must be one of the best views in Alaska. I think the bald eagle that’s been on his perch since we got here thinks so, too!

-Susanc & Rolf Indle" text[31] = "We stopped at the overlook above here to experience ‘the view’ along the highway – little expecting that from the ‘Double Eagle,’ we would experience it 24 hours a day … we have finally reached a stage of life where we can stay a while (comfortably) within ‘the view.’ We worked hard to get here, and certainly enjoyed ‘the view.’
-Jim & Diane Brauker" text[32] = "Great for young & old!
-Wesley & Darlene Mathis" text[33] = "Your cabins remain the most unique and charmingly outfitted on the Kenai! And who would’ve thought that 6 people could dine so comfortably on the deck?! We loved the view of the hillside covered with flowers and berries, and the fresh berries were a real treat for dessert. Thanks and you know we will be back!
-Susanc & Rolf Indle" text[34] = "The nap on the swing outside was so peaceful and who can beat the view! Thanks for the memories.
