This property was excellent. I would stay here again. Super clean, gorgeous views, walkable neighborhood to sites of interest! We happened to be in Ketchikan during the hottest week of the season so we had to have the windows open in the late afternoon, evening and overnight due to the sun baking in the beautiful windows. Luckily there was a oscillating fan in the closet to use. Kind of a fluke weather situation. Due to the windows being open, it was quite noisy with the traffic, but it also added to the atmosphere of being right in the action too. We used the kitchen to the max since eating out was very costly and utensils, pots and pans, etc, were high quality. The bed in the main bedroom was so comfortable - better than at home. Very close to the main attractions so that we could walk most places. TV was not so great - I assume internet is spotty, so we had some trouble with that aspect, which was really no big deal considering the views are so fabulous of the water, cruise ships and harbor.

The house is fully complete. The kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedrooms were clean and ready for us. We made use of the coffee maker, microwave, and stove top. Each of these items are in top shape as is the fridge and washer/dryer, which we also used. We walked up to the door just as the cleaning crew was walking out. They asked us our names and held the door open for us. The location of this house is perfect. We walked to great restaurants and shops and all but one historic site. It was a joy to stay in this house and if we come back to Ketchikan we will see if we can stay in this place again!

Beautiful 2 bedroom, newly decorated. Host responds in promptly. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Beautiful view of the harbor. Walking distance to everything. 1 minute walk to Creek Street. We would stay here again because of its proximity to everything and because it's so beautifully decorated and had everything we needed.

We would stay again
Everything about the place worked for my family of four. Right next to the port area and had all the amenities we needed to feel like we were at home for our visit. Beds were comfy too.

This is a gorgeous place...wonderful decor and a cool view of the harbor. That would be enough to earn 5 stars...the rest of the personal touches put this stay in a category of it's own. The kitchen was definitely a high point - great utensils, top notch extras, and the knives are sharp...perfect location as well
