Incredible location with stunning views. Extremely clean, with great communication from the staff. There currently a bald eagle’s nest with fledgelings within site of the adirondack chairs!
White House Inn was a beautiful property with well appointed and comfortable rooms close to the Spit and other activities in Homer. The host was very communicative and responsive. We loved it, and when we return to Homer, we definitely plan to stay here again.
We stay here every year. Absolutely beautiful place. The ownership is responsive and have always taken great care of us. Couldn’t recommend more.
Quiet, peaceful, great views, comfortable bed, hot tub, and two eagles to watch over you. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the White House Inn in Homer! The photo is our view from the King Salmon Room.
What a beautiful place! The steelhead room was comfy and clean. The grounds are gorgeous and we loved sitting in the hot tub overlooking the bay. Easy check-in, good communication from hosts, and an overall great stay!
Really clean, well equipped. I looked at a LOT of places to potentially stay, but chose here because it's modern, and much larger than many places I compared it too. We stayed in the Halibut Room. There is a FULL kitchen and full living room AND two bedrooms, which was perfect for our grown family of five adults. The front lawn is peaceful and the view seems to pull you out to the adirondack chairs at the edge. Great place to take in the endless view, as well as keep an eye on the two eagles in the tree next door. Larry was a great host and made sure we had an excellent stay. One of the better places you could choose for an Alaska visit.
We loved staying at the White House, you will too! We had two rooms facing the bay, blessed with awesome ocean views. Breakfasts and dinners were special watching the tide come in and out with the occasional otter sighting thrown in for good measure. The beds in our room were excellent, comfortable and high. The rooms had two coffee makers with plenty of coffee at our disposable along with mugs, plates, cutlery, etc. There was a microwave and fridge too (with kids appreciating the free popcorn ready to pop). There were plenty of soft towels, and bathroom supplies. The water pressure and hot water were good as well. White House inn was a memorable place to stay, centrally located (five mins from Safeway and two mins from a laundromat), with very comfortable home like setting.
This is a truly beautiful inn with a spectacular view of the mountains across the bay. We frequently saw otters in the water right out in front of us. Our room was lovely with a picture window overlooking the water. The room is extremely comfortable with a refrigerator, freezer, microwave, 2 coffee makers and other amenities. We loved it here. My only regret is that we did not have a car and depending on taxis can be frustrating.
