Beautiful house in Sitka!
This house was absolutely beautiful! There are great views from every window in the entire house. We enjoyed s'mores at the fire-pit outside, it sits right on the water’s edge. Our daughter took some of her wedding pics on the property and they are gorgeous! Lots of eagles in the area. It was super clean too! We would definitely stay here again!

Peace and beautiful recharge
Our plane arrived earlier than checkin but they came to airport and picked up our bags! Then we headed to The Pub for a great lunch and local brew! The owner came and met us and made out our two grandsons beds in her yoga area! My granddaughter lived in the bamboo chair with the amazing view! Everyone from 5 years old up to 52 would go back tomorrow! Beautiful place! We weren’t use to the no darkness and there aren’t blackout shades but that wasn’t a big deal! We just went and bought sleep masks! The only thing I wish was there were more pots. With a family of seven we easily Use multiple pans. There were two veggie size then one big one like for potatoes. But seriously, that’s it!
