Perfect balance of "rustic" and comfort with delicious fresh food and gracious service. Across the Bay offers spectacular sunsets, peaceful atmosphere and the opportunity to relax and unwind. However, if you are in the mood for kayaking, mountain biking or hike the area offers much to do. We walked the beach at low tide, explored tide pools, kayaked to several... More

We went for our anniversary several years ago. Great accomodations. Yes, it's roughing it, but you've never had roughing it so good. The tents are secure and clean; we were off the ground in comfortable beds. Even during a storm we were safe and snug. The staff was wonderful and you've never had such a wonderful breakfast. This is a... More

I have been to this place about 4 times now with different friends and family. Each trip has left us with lasting, happy memories. There is so much to do-or blissfully do nothing in this peaceful setting. As if the natural beauty weren't enough, Tony & Mary Jane are consistently gracious, fun-loving and attentive. The tents are cozy and roomy,... More

Need to really relax? Need to clear your mind? Go to this place. The hosts are friendly and unpretentious. The lodge--where you eat--offers views of the coastal setting and is clean and quaint. The food is plentiful and yummy. The tents are private with comfortable beds. The choices for activities range from hanging out in the gazebo to bike riding... More

I traveled to Across the Bay on the recommendation of a neighbor who goes every year with a large group of friends. Although I'm adventurous at heart, I wasn't sure about the "tenting" aspect but I loved it. The wall tents were like little cabins, cozy and inviting, and ours was tucked beside a gurgling stream that lulled us all... More

Across The Bay Tent and Breakfast was the perfect spot for our sister reunion this year. It offered adventure and outdoor fun in the midst of gorgeous landscape scenery. The owners and "hosts extraordinaire," Mary Jane and Tony, are down to earth, warmhearted and friendly folks. Their yummy meals and gracious hospitality added cozy comfort to our camping experience. We... More

I would emphatically not recommend this place to stay. I have stayed many times in Homer and was looking to show out of state guests a more adventurous outing and chose this lodge from their own website based on photos and reviews. We two couples and our 5 year old son could not have been more disappointed in the accommodations.... More

Friendly, family-run place with an eccentric artistic touch. Not your usual hotel/motel or b and b, Across the Bay Tent and Breakfast is it's own kind of place. Housing is in carpeted wall tents set on platforms in the woods and near the beach, with a main lodge building with a comfortable room for reading and meals. There is a... More

The staff was first rate. They helped out all the tour members moving equipment and personal gear to and from the water taxi. The housekeeping was impeccable. The rustic canvas tent cabins with cots were comfortable. The open air feeling of the rushing stream and nearby ocean were comforting. The site of the T&B was very quiet and secluded. The... More
