This was a great spot! It is an upstairs apartment, reached by outdoor stairs. There’s a huge spacious living room with great couches, well equipped dining area, two bedrooms with very comfy beds, a small/handy kitchenette area, and a basic bathroom. Note that it has lots of big windows with views of the harbor, and trees right outside with eagles perched in them. :) There’s no stove but it looks like there’s a nice grill out on the deck, for cooking, plus theres a microwave etc indoors. The host, Josh, is a SUPER nice guy, very responsive and helpful. Lovely little stony beach below the house. There’s a beautiful new house going up on the shore, which alters the view but it is still beautiful, and soooo peaceful. We had a great time there!

Best time ever

Juneau was amazing! The property was so gorgeous!! You are able to walk right down to the water and throw a pole in. Within a couple of casts I caught a lingcod! There is so much wild life around and you are in a perfect location for whatever you're looking to do!

Eagle watching

Myself, my husband and my father enjoyed morning coffee while watching eagles from the kitchen table every day. Summer solstice here in Juneau with amazing weather. Whales out in the bay. Hiking close by. We did a sea plane ride with Ward Air over the glaciers. Our hosts were very friendly, helpful and quick to respond to any questions.

Two words: THE VIEW

The property is clean and serene! Josh was readily available and helpful. The location is easy access to downtown as well as the brewery and other "to be seen" areas down the road. When not out exploring, just sitting on the sofa enjoying the view and a few bald eagle sightings was spectacular and relaxing.

Lovely stay overlooking beautiful Auke Bay

House was clean and comfortable, very cozy on rainy days, enjoyed the short walk down to a nice little beach area— very convenient to Mendenhall and lots of gorgeous hikes. Def try the halibut fish and chips at nearby Sandbar.

Spectacular water views

Communication with Josh was fantastic--instructions were clear and he responded quickly. He even met us when we arrived and advised us on the best walking trails! The cottage was immaculate. The views of Lynn Canal were spectacular. My wife even saw a whale (or large porpoise) from the window while we were there! If you're looking to stay in Juneau, grab this property if it's available...I guarantee you will love it!
