“Hidden Gem in Homer”

We stayed at Bear Creek last week and had an absolutely wonderful stay. When you first arrive at the property it's a bit deceiving--you're in a large parking lot with the wine shop to your right. I was worried that the place might be a bit blah. Boy, was I wrong. When you walk around the back of the property to the suites it's as though you are magically transformed to a hidden oasis. Beautiful wood decking leads you down some steps and across a little foot bridge to a lovely room. We stayed in the Artic Suite. When we looked out the windows we felt like we were in a tree house--our view was of a beautiful wooded area. The suite included a mini kitchen, two comfy chairs, a quaint queen bed and a nice bathroom with an over-sized shower.

We enjoyed the split of wine that was in our room while relaxing in the cedar hot tub with a view of the mountains. This was definitely my idea of vacation! Breakfast is simple and is left in your room the night before--muffins, coffee, oatmeal. Perfect for us.

The hostess was extremely friendly as was the winery staff. We spent some time wine tasting and just enjoying the gorgeous scenery.

I would definitely recommend a stay at Bear Creek and hope that someday we can stay there again.

    • Disliked — Carrying our bags to the rooms?? There are stairs and we had big bags, but so worth it!

“Winery and a room”

We had a wonderful time staying here. We are working on a return trip to Alaska and are considering going to Homer, just so we can stay at Bear Creek again.

Our rooms was well decorated, large enough with a good size restroom. It has a large glass shower, but no tub.

One night upon return to our room, two moose were grazing in the yard.

We tried the hot tub (from which you can see the bay) and the sauna.

Our favorite parts of the stay there was the care and conversation with our host, and the wine tasting.

In a 12 day tour of Alaska, it was our favorite stay.

We were very fortunate to find this charming place to stay!! It was the highlight of our lovely stay in Homer. They say Homer has a special feel to it and that extends to this lodge that made me feel very content and happy.

The owner Dorthy was very warm and welcoming and excited for our stay! As the Lodge is next to her and her husband's cute Winery, she gave us a small bottle of wine from their delicious fruit infused wine selection and a free wine tasting.

The suite was decorated very pleasingly with great attention to detail. The suites are very private and quiet and separated from the small winery by the gardens and the owners' home. The suites have a sitting area and kitchen. Outdoors, each suite has a table, chairs and bbq. The bathroom is first rate with a very large glass shower and bath robes. The rooms are impeccably clean. Microwave popcorn, teas, coffee, muffins and fresh fruit are provided.

There's a view of the mountains and water (visible from the property and a bit visible from the rooms, especially after the fall leaves drop).

As there are only two rooms at the lodge, the large cedar hot tub was very private.

The property is beautifully ornate with ponds, gardens, a fire pit, and horse shoes.

I would definitely return to the Bear Creek Winery and Lodging!! The lodge was very romantic (appealing to both the male and female) and is one of my favorite places I've stayed.
