Homer Alaska Beachfront Inn for Sale
Homer, AK
Offered for sale at $4,550,000
The Driftwood Inn is Homer’s original beachfront lodging property — a diversified, multi-building hospitality platform situated on 1.15 acres of Kachemak Bay frontage across three parcels. The offering includes the Historic Inn (23 rooms), The Look Out Lodge with the Carriage Guesthouse (a spacious 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom Lodge with a loft featuring a library with incredible views and the Carriage House featuring another 4 renovated suites), two custom Tiny Houses, and a 19-site full-hookup RV Park on an adjacent half-acre lot. The Inn and RV Park front Ohlson Lane, an alley that provides a natural buffer from West Bunnell Avenue and direct guest access to to the beach on Kachemak Bay.
The Property
The main building is a two-story wood-frame structure with a full-length front porch and deck — the social center of the property, with multiple seating areas, an outdoor grill, and unobstructed water views. Common areas include a front desk and breakfast nook, a living room with fireplace and library, and the expansive deck. The Carriage House, connected by a covered entrance, contains four renovated rooms that are among the most-requested on the property. The Carriage House contains the four guest room suites that are attached by a breezeway to the Look Out Lodge. The Look Out Lodge is a coastal, modern home with expansive views featuring 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and is perfect for groups, weddings and reunions. Two custom Tiny Houses — Liberty and Mermaid — each include a private bath and kitchenette, providing self-contained accommodations distinct from the main inn inventory.
The 19-site RV Park on the adjacent parcel at 3369 Main Street offers full hookups (water, electric, septic) and a bathhouse. Combined with the inn’s lodging inventory, the RV Park gives the property meaningful breadth across visitor types and price points. Approximately 35 parking spaces are distributed across the site.
The property supports weddings and small events, with Kachemak Bay and the Kenai Mountains as backdrop. Meeting and conference use is also an established part of the operation with the nearby Elks Club and Chamber of Commerce Meeting rooms nearby.
Note: This offering is limited to three parcels (135 W Bunnell Ave ×2 and 3369 Main Street). The Bluffview, the Beach House, and AJ’s Restaurant across the street are separately owned and are not included in this offering.
Location & Market
Homer sits at the terminus of the Sterling Highway on the southwest Kenai Peninsula — widely known as “the end of the road” and one of Alaska’s most recognized destinations. The town’s defining feature is the Homer Spit, a 4.5-mile gravel bar extending into Kachemak Bay, home to Homer Harbor and a concentrated corridor of restaurants, charter operations, and visitor services.
Homer draws visitors for an exceptional range of activities: sport halibut fishing (Homer is widely regarded as the Halibut Fishing Capital of the World), bear viewing excursions to Katmai, water taxi crossings to Kachemak Bay State Park, birdwatching, kayaking, and backcountry hiking. The town has been recognized by Smithsonian Magazine as one of the top small towns in the nation and has earned designation as the Ecological Tourism Capital of Alaska. The Sterling Highway itself is a four-hour scenic drive from Anchorage through the Kenai Peninsula, functioning as a tourism corridor in its own right.
Homer Airport (HOM) provides direct service from Anchorage, supporting air access for visitors not driving the peninsula. The town’s sheltered subarctic climate — moderated by the Chugach Mountains from Gulf of Alaska weather — produces comfortable summer conditions and supports a strong June through September peak season, with meaningful shoulder demand from fishing, hunting, and wildlife tourism in spring and fall. The property operates year-round.
