Great stay at this Inn!

Good view over of the ocean and good location to restaurants! We had a spacious suite and our communication with the management/owner was outstanding! Owner, Lila, borrowed us hiking poles, bear spray, suggested hikes, restaurants for all meals and steered us in so many fun local ways! We would stay at the Pioneer Inn again!

A convenient place

It’s a convenient way to visit Homer. Despite a little lack of space in the room there’s really everything you can be in need of. Even very detailed and updated information about Homer, activities and weather is provided. Position is good provided you have your own vehicle.

Lynn, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice but uncomfortable stay.

The room was very small and uncomfortable. Noise level was too high. You can hear it everytime someone turns on the water or walking around. Lila was kind enough to offer us the refund for the days we didn't stay.
