Great - Expectations Met

Quiet residential neighborhood yet very accessible to downtown, glacier entrance and stores. The unit was clean and well stocked from the kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms. We were pleasantly surprised by the warm weather during our visit and the upper unit stayed comfortable with the fan and breeze from the window. Kelli was a fantastic, responsive host.

Excellent Service

Staying at Granite Getaway was the best choice we could have ever made for our son's high school graduation trip to Juneau. We had the entire upper floor of a duplex, the property nicely updated with granite sinks, countertops and fireplace (hence the name "Granite Getaway"), as well as nice wood flooring, new paint, and tasteful decorations. This VRBO was cheaper than any of the motels we found in Juneau, plus we saved tons MORE money because out of 20 meals, we only ate out twice! We made all sorts of gourmet meals in the kitchen, with the cheapest grocery store in Juneau (Fred Meyer) just 2.8 miles away. Kelli was also very responsive when we texted her for various needs, bringing us a can opener, extra toilet paper and an extra dining chair at a moment's notice and even allowing us to use her washer and drier. Not only did we save a lot of money by staying here, but we also had much more room than a motel to spread out and "feel at home" while exploring the beautiful city of Juneau!

Better than a Hotel/Motel

I grew up in Juneau and my first instinct is to make reservations at a hotel/motel, but my sister told me about Vrbo. What an experience! It was like bring my home with me, all I need was the key to unlock the door and a little bit of groceries and we were very well taken care of. Going forward when I travel I will definitely be using Vrbo. Thanks!

In between homes

We had the pleasure of renting from Kelli while waiting for the closing process to finish on our new home. Kelli was such a kind and flexible host. The granite getaway was the perfect cozy home for our family. It had every accommodation needed for cooking, cleaning and just relaxing. We especially enjoyed being so close to trails!
