Shawn was really great communicating with me about my late arrival and departure. The room was perfect…spacious, clean, comfortable, and had a view of the bay. I will be returning to this place.

The Shack Inn on the Homer spit was a great place to stay. I was very comfortable staying and the unit that I stayed in was spacious and tastefully done. It was clean and in a great location in order to experience the Homer spit!
