We loved these cottages. They were perfect for a weekend getaway and are in walking distance to most everything in downtown Sitka (Shopping, restaurants, totem park, whale watching, etc). We walked almost everywhere we went. The host is next door and was very friendly. Check in was a breeze with clear instructions. The trundle twin bed helped us spread out a little bit. Great option for a short stay!

Cozy, warm, good location

Good proximity to downtown Sitka. Very friendly owner, very clean. A little tight for two people, particularly sleeping accommodations with two single trundle beds, but we were comfortable. Nice and quiet.
