Seaside Farm is a 30 acre, magical, park like farm on the shores of Kachemak Bay, just outside of Homer, a few miles down from the Kilcher Homestead where I grew up in the 1940's! . Now a song bird sanctuary, with trails, lawns, gardens, trees, hay fields, and a private beach, cabins, a clover camping meadow, Seaside was once part of an original Alaska pioneer homestead. It is also the home of hundreds of songbirds, moose, coyotes, wild hares, flocks of sandhill cranes, two sweet Morgan Horses, an assortment of chickens and visitors seeking peace, nature, wildlife, pristine beaches, in a real Alaska, non touristy setting. This property has three different types accommodations: Rustic, cozy cabins, a big field for tent campers, and a few spaces reserved for 4 wheel drive vans, and small vehicle camping, including rooftop tents If you prefer camping away from the tourist crowds, you will find our soft clover meadows and well kept lawns, a deluxe and memorable experience. The beach is a short walk down the trail, where its peaceful and private, with only the sound of the seagulls and waves. Van campers have a few special areas to park their vehicles, with views of the glaciers and mountains. There is limited parking and turnaround space, and we like our farm not too crowded, to provide a special rural experience to all who visit. It helps to call or text before you arrive to make sure we are on site and can help you with parking! There are three cabins sprinkled throughout the property. Two are off grid, close to the beach, private and magical, with wood stoves. All cabins are able to use the main farm lodge amenities, just a few minutes walk away but have their own outhouses, all with amazing views! You can walk on the beach from the main lodge parking area, there is a covered camping pavilion available to all guests, a communal campfire spot and bbq grill, lovely maintained walking trails and meadows, and even wifi! We allow most dogs, but ask you to contact us before booking with us, so we can let you know our rules before you travel. All dogs must be well behaved, social, on leashes and at owner's side at all times to protect our trusting wildlife from accidental harm, like our baby pheasants, moose, bunnies, and songbird nests!

A few things that make my place unique: My 5 acres is part of the famous 620-acre Kilcher Homestead, as seen on “Alaska the Last Frontier” TV show. I am the 7th of the 8 children; Atz and Otto are my brothers. There is a special feeling here vibrating in the land, and why our parents picked this spot. Full outdoor kitchen with all you need to cook and wash up; BBQ, hotplate, pure drinking water, spices, pots/pans/dishes etc. The atmosphere feels so pure, so silent, so wild yet comfortable. Drive-in access sometimes, or have to walk 15 minutes, and no issues with mosquitoes!!! You get to meet me and maybe other family members as you cruise around. Homer is 35 minutes away, with oodles of things to do there: great restaurants, a lap pool, fun shopping, etc. We have quite good cell reception here. Lots of options to enjoy your stay!

BOUYLAND

5. BOUYLAND

21mi from Seldovia · 1 site
Located seven miles from downtown Homer, the drive up East Hill and along Skyline Drive offers outstanding views of Kachemak Bay. BOUYLAND is completely surrounded by the Inspiration Ridge Wildlife Preserve; our 800-foot driveway is a frequent path for moose. A short walk through the alders reveals a vast panorama of Mt. Redoubt, Lookout Mountain, Beaver Creek, Bald Mountain, Fritz Creek, and the Kachemak Mountains. The Setting The scenery is beautiful, but amenities are sparse. Access is via a narrow grass driveway. The toilet is a clean, comfortable outhouse—best used with the door open to take in the view. There is no running water at the "Cabinette." The Pros Peace & Privacy: Away from the town bustle with a fair chance a moose will walk right past you. The Views: Incredible sunsets behind Mt. Redoubt. Nature: High and dry with hardly any bugs. Fresh Water: I developed a cool spring on-site in 2025. The Cons Rustic: Outhouse only and underdeveloped. Shared Space: We live on the lot (2.77 acres) and will drive past you. We’ll likely bump into each other, but you’re free to explore. Daytime Noise: Trucks occasionally haul gravel off Ohlsen Mt. in the summer. They rumble past (out of sight) during the day, but mornings and evenings are peaceful. Adventure & Trails We are directly adjacent to an Inspiration Ridge Wildlife Preserve trailhead. Explore Ohlsen Mtn Rd for hilly gravel/mountain biking with views of Mt. Iliamna. For road cyclists, Skyline Drive offers "sporty" riding to the Sterling Highway (expect some rough patches). The Wynn Nature Center is just two miles away, and the hike up Lookout Mountain to the VORTAC is a local favorite. The Legend of BOUYMAN BOUYLAND is the birthplace and home of BOUYMAN. Thirty years ago, this was a major attraction where 1,000 buoys and 1,000 lights festooned a circular grove of spruce. Though spruce bark beetles eventually took the grove, the spirit remains: BOUYMAN LIVES!
