This Bishop’s Beach House is the best place we’ve ever rented! Quiet, soooo close to the beach, with Sandhill Cranes flying overhead. The art work inside is lovely, and the property manager is the best!

Little small for 6 guys but we were primarily there to sleep before an early morning of fishing and then come back to sleep again after a long day fishing. Owner met us when we checked in and was very accomodating. We had several questions which he answered. I would stay here again.

Perfect beach bungalow!

This place is just what we needed for a quick trip. 7 people and a dog slept comfortably in this cozy but spacious house. The proximity to the beach can't be beat! We also walked to the meadery, grocery store, and Wild Honey cafe-- super close to everything!

The Bungalow at Bishops Beach is a Home away from home! It comfortable fit our family of 9 including Oshi, the dog. Do not miss out on the opportunity to walk to the beach, old town Homer & whatever else you might enjoy. Listen to the Eagles, Crows and Sandhill Cranes while enjoying the view from the deck.

Cozy Bungalow by the Beach

Clean, well-supplied with the necessities. May be a little small for more than 4 people. Only minor inconvenience was that the single bathroom was downstairs for all bedrooms upstairs. Nice location for a short walk to the beach.

Our stay at the bungalow met all of our needs. We used the BBQ every night and the wonderful weather we ordered made the our experience even better. We watched eagles and moose from the dining room table and took walks along the water front just steps from the door.
