I booked this because of the reviews on here and was very disappointed. I traveled with my senior parents and my teenage nephew. While this place was acceptable, I can not imagine how it gets anything more than 3 stars. Heidi was very nice but that isn't enough. The first appearance is of clutter al over the yard. It wasn't really clear as to where I should park so I just pulled to one side. We had to step over the dog to get up the stairs while carrying our luggage. We stayed in the downstairs suite. There are two beds in the bedroom and a day bed in the living area o the suite. Off the living area is a washer and dryer which we could use. However, so could everyone else staying there which meant they were walking through my bedroom. Also, her daughter came down in the morning while I was still in bed to get something out of a room they are using for storage. It was clean but not sparkling. There was mold in the shower, streaks on the mirror and soap scum under the faucet. I had to go searching for towels as there was only one bath towel put out. There were also lots of spots on the carpet. Breakfast was a continental breakfast including snack cakes and other unusual breakfast items like apple pie. It was fix your own and when I opened the refrigerator I was not sure what I was supposed to use as it looked like the family refrigerator. On the plus side, there is a beautiful deck that my parents used while my nephew and I were fishing for the day and there was lots of space to hang out. Overall, not the worst, but not a place I would go back to.

We don't usaully rent the downstairs suite in July because we have so much going on and reserve it for family and commercial fishing employees, so it was probably not as clean as the upstiars rooms. My daughter did not know anyone was downstairs when she went downstairs to the other locked bedroom. When we have guests downstairs we don't use the washer and dryer so guests can have their privacy because we have another washer/ dryer on the other side of the house. So, I'm not sure who went downstairs to use the washer? The bedroom downstairs has its own lock on the door, but does open out into a livingroom. No one is allowed to go downstairs when it is rented so the use of the livingroom with the daybed, 2nd bathroom, laundry room and kitchenette is just a bonus to room #5. Our rates are the most affordable in the area, and most people like our friendly outside dog, Midnight. :) She is very friendly and only barks at moose and bears. We do commercial fish in the summer and have some fishing stuff outside, but we try to keep it as clutter free as possible in the ssummer months when we have guests. The refrigerator on the main level is for all the guests in all 5 of our rooms (usually only 4, but on this particular week we did rent #5). Sometimes we have larger families staying that use the refrigerator. So, yes, it is a family refrigerator, but not our families. We have a separate kitchen, refrigerator, etc.. Breakfast if continental, we leave breakfast sandwiches and hot pockets in the freezer, I leave milk, juice, eggs, yogurt, fruit and waffle toppings in the fridge. And I put out lots of donuts, muffins, granola bars, cereals, waffle mix, etc.. on the counter and leave it up to the guests to help themselves. It is hard to make a breakfast for guests who usually are here fishing and sometimes leave the house at 4 am. so I have found that most people are happy doing their own thing. Unfortunetly we can't please everyone, but we do our best and most people return yearly to stay with us.

Hospitality and feel like home
My family really enjoyed when we stayed in Heidi's house. She also showed us around the areas and told us the history.
Highly recommend if you want to stay around that areas.

Our first experience at a B & B was awesome!
We were reluctant to stay at a B & B but found the experience very nice. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, the views were great and we made lasting memories and friendships. We are looking very forward to a return visit.

We really enjoyed all the comforts of home and the Wongs are ver
The Wongs are wonderful hosts and we enjoyed our stay so much that we returned a week later to stay a few more nights. The rooms were spacious and clean; and the large fully stocked kitchen allowed us to cook great meals, especially with the salmon and halibut that were caught right of the ocean. The location was great for us because it was not far from the main stores and town and near where we like to clam and fish in Homer.
