Couples will enjoy this awesome log building and it is a favorite for larger families and other groups.

There are lots of special features in this building including extensive hand carvings and articles recognizing explorer Captain James Cook who anchored off the beach here in May 1778.

Lovely property
We love coming to Homer for an annual family trip each year and this spot did not disappoint. The upstairs area is a large space with 5 beds all in one open bunk area with one bathroom. The house was clean, well stoked, and perfect for what we needed for a weekend fishing trip.

Beautiful. Well kept cabin in Anchor Point Alaska
Loved the quaint cabin with lots of moose and wildlife. Wonderful spot to put a cabin. Close to everything. Cabin was spacious and had everything you needed. My family of five had plenty of room. Enjoyed it tremendously. We will return. If you are in the area you need to check out Bear Paw Adventures!!

Right on Point
We enjoyed our stay at the Captain Hook Lodge--cabin was very clean and well stocked, and while we didn't cook--I did note the kitchen was well equipped. Communication with John was great, and he went above and beyond to assist us with an issue not related to the rental. The location was perfect for us as we had a fishing charter booked in Ninilchik and also wanted to spend time in Homer.
