Critical reception

CMJ New Music Report deemed Homesick and Happy to Be Here "a gentle collection of guitar pop with elegant vocals." The Los Angeles Times wrote that "the album is a charming combination of strummy bedroom pop, fuzzy and smoldering guitars, and girl-boy vocals highlighted by [Beth] Arzy's plaintive entreaties."

AllMusic called the album "a roomy, positively beaming sort of record of diamond-sharp mid-tempo indie pop, a uniquely delayed first attempt that runs somewhere between Jeepster earnestness and the flagrant sparkle of the Trash Can Sinatras' Cake."
