Cozy cabin in Juneau

This cabin was very near the airport which was nice after a long day of plane travel. Close to town but did not feel like it (In a good way). Very peaceful and beautiful location. House was clean, cozy and well furnished for a Juneau vacation. I would definitely stay here again.

The place was very comfortable, clean and well supplied. It had everything we needed, including lots of pillows and blankets for kids to crash on the couches, air mattress, and floor. Bill and Penny were extremely accomodating, he even snow plowed around our car. Great central location, Fred Meyer is literally right down the road. I would definjtely stay there again!

Cozy with great layout

This was a great spot right near the road but surrounded by rain forest so feels secluded with great scenery. A good halfway point between Mendenhall Glacier and downtown Juneau. The apt layout was great for our family, the kitchen was a good size and having laundry was awesome. The owners were very responsive. One thing to note was the 3rd bed was not a futon but an air mattress.

Very accommodating hosts helped us check in smoothly. I was surprised that one of the beds for our family of six was an air mattress in the living room, but I may not have read the fine print… the mattress was easy to set up and not a problem. It is an extremely convenient location next to airport and grocery, but there is also a lot of highway noise that makes sleeping in the living room challenging. Overall good experience. Everything was very clean and the accommodations were solid.

Great location to stay in Juneau!

Penny our host was very gracious to let us check in early as our flight arrived several hours prior to check- in. The downstairs apartment is clean and comfortable. The property is centrally located to all activities and is about 10 minutes from downtown . Fred Meyer is down the street. There are many trails to hike and lots of mining and Tlingit history. The scenery is outstanding!

Perfect, convenient spot in Juneau!

Great spot, perfectly located between Mendenhall Glacier and downtown Juneau. Comfortable apartment. Hosts were attentive and helpful when we needed resupply of bathroom items. An upgrade to the apartment would be screens on the windows to improve ventilation without letting bugs in. Other than that, it was a great resting spot for our family of 6.

A splendid little place. I was ready to move-in.

This little home is right by the airport, and I was worried about possible airplane noise. But I never heard a sound, it was perfect, and restful. It's the downstairs level of their home, not connected directly to the host home upstairs. These hosts really care about making your stay great. (We were staying for work, but I'd love to book again for vacation) I would highly recommend this place, it's got everything you need. Clean and comfy, close to everything, and a great value.
