Set in a private, protected cove across the bay from Homer, Alaska, Cove Peaks Lodge offers a rare opportunity to own a fully off-grid wilderness retreat in the heart of the state’s most scenic and adventure-rich regions. Spanning 10 acres of pristine coastal land in Halibut Cove, this property includes a spacious main lodge, five guest cabins, full off-grid systems, and all the infrastructure necessary to host destination travelers or operate a private, self-sufficient retreat. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and world-renowned fishing grounds, this lodge presents a unique blend of seclusion, comfort, and natural beauty.
Property Highlights:
The heart of the property is the 2,700-square-foot main lodge, originally built in the late 1990s. It features five bedrooms and two full bathrooms, making it suitable for large group gatherings, corporate retreats, or owner’s quarters. The lodge includes a commercial kitchen with updated appliances, generous living space, and heating via propane and a newly installed pellet stove.
Surrounding the lodge are five guest cabins—four smaller cabins, each approximately 520 square feet, offer an open floor plan, full bathroom, and loft sleeping space. The larger 970-square-foot cabin includes two separate bedrooms, full bath downstairs, loft with 4 beds, and an additional half bath upstairs, ideal for families or VIP guests.
Cove Peaks Lodge operates fully off-grid with a thoughtfully designed infrastructure system. Power is supplied by a 24-panel solar array (upgraded in 2021) and stored in three high-capacity Schnyder lithium batteries—an estimated $40,000 investment. An automatic-start diesel generator and a second backup generator provide reliable auxiliary power.
Water is sourced from a clean mountain spring and treated with filters and a chlorination system. Plumbing and pumping infrastructure has been upgraded with modern PEX piping. Propane is delivered in 100-gallon barrels and distributed throughout the property. WiFi is available via a private tower on site.
Located in the serene waters of Halibut Cove, this property offers immediate access to some of Alaska’s best fishing, kayaking, and glacier exploration. Hike scenic trails, spot eagles and sea otters, and enjoy world-class halibut and salmon fishing nearby. The surrounding area is known for its natural beauty and is a magnet for ecotourism, photography, and wellness retreats.
Whether used as a private getaway, a corporate retreat center, or reopened as a destination wilderness lodge, Cove Peaks Lodge is ideally suited for hospitality or adventure-based operations. The buildings and systems are already in place, and the layout provides flexibility for accommodating guests, staff, or multiple families. Properties with this combination of privacy, functionality, and scenic value are exceptionally rare in Alaska’s real estate market.
