About Doug and Gloria Stuart
Gloria and I came to Homer in 1981 from Long Island New York. Our first three children were born there and our two adopted kids were born in Alaska and came to be ours in their infancy. We have had a busy 32 years of raising children, Doug working on the North Slope for ARCO Alaska, commercial fishing and more recently working for the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge as a Naturalist on the State ferry Tustumena traveling from Homer to Dutch Harbor over 120 times. We've built a smaller home out of town to be near our children and grand children. We have loved our 'town house' and have wonderful memories of our years spent here. It's a very comfortable home from which to enjoy and 'take in' all that Homer, Alaska has to offer. Please see our expanded link to see many more pictures and our special free amenities we would like to offer you.
Doug and Gloria Stuart purchased this house in 1989
Why Doug and Gloria Stuart chose Kenai Peninsula
As soon as we stepped through the door with our realtor, we immediatly fell in love with 292 Mountain View Drive. It was huge compared to our homestead trailer out of town. It had bedrooms for all and a view that has awed us for 27 years besides having three levels so that children and adults can gather together or separate for entertaining. The benifits of living close to but not next to all the amenities a large, growing family needs was wonderful. Gloria and I feel that not only your needs but all your vacation wishes will be met here also.
What makes this house unique
As large as our house is it has the warmth that makes everyone feel they've come home! We know you will feel that way too. Doug and Gloria Stuart

Million dollars view
House is very clean,got everything we need,peacefull with million dollars view,we will be back again to stay.
Spectacular Home
Gloria and Doug's home was perfect for our family stay in Homer. Very clean, convenient to town and a most relaxing space for us to relax after our daily adventures. The unforgettable view overlooking Kachemak Bay and the Homer Spit, with it's mountain and glacial backdrop was the perfect ending to our days spent in the Alaskan wilderness.
Great views and near to town!
Convenient location. Can get to town in under 8 minutes. Yet, still has gorgeous views of the bay. Property owners were very hospitable and kind. The bedrooms were spacious. Additionally, the all rooms had blackout shades which a must for summer visitors. We had a group of 9 and all were comfortable. If I had to mention an improvement it would be to have new pots and pans. We would stay here again and would recommend to others.
AMAZING!!!
Beautiful Home, with incredible views. Host couldn't be better. We will definitely be back in the future.
Location
The Norman Lowell studio is a must see 'free'(13 mi from Homer) The USF& Wildlife center(Islands and Ocean) is 'free' and in town. The Carl Wynn Nature Center is a lovely walk'free'. Many local hiking trails(see brochures in house)
