There was plenty of space for everyone. We ate half of our meals at “home” which made for a relaxing, inexpensive visit. We all departed saying we hope to return next year.

It is made even better by a wonderful host. This was home base for our family Alaskan vacation. The common areas are big enough for family time together and the bedrooms and baths are spacious and comfortable. The scenery just looking out the window or walking out the door is amazing. We particularly enjoyed gathering around the large dining table and around the firepit to relive the days adventures. Leading up to our trip, I had several questions/requests for our hosts. They were quick to respond and went over and above to help us. They shared thier beautiful home and hospitality with us. We had the perfect Alaskan vacation with this property as home base. I highly recommended. ##### Gloria J. Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dana Q. Aug 5, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Expected more for the price We travel with our friends to Juneau every summer and have stayed in rentals way nicer for a lot cheaper. The house accommodated our large group nicely and was clean. However, the property was not maintained and the house seemed a little tired from over use. There were basic supplies like trash bags, kitchen towels and extra toilet paper missing. The listing checked hot tub under amenities but we never found it. Overall it served its purpose for a centrally located house in a good neighborhood. ##### Dana Q. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna Kathryn O. Jul 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location for anyone who loves the outdoors We stayed here for our annual July 4th trip this year, and we were less than 15 minutes from great hiking, sea kayaking, and fishing. This house is away from the busyness of the cruise ships which was very nice. House was very clean, and it was a quiet, pretty neighborhood. The house can sleep 12 comfortably if everyone is fine sharing a bed, although the living room does not have seating room for that many. House comes with basics but you may need to restock if staying with a large group for more than 3-4 days. No blackout curtains so definitely don’t forget your sleep mask! ##### Anna Kathryn O.

There were a few things that would be an improvement. Specifically, in a three bath/four bedroom home more than one hairdryer would have been appreciated. Additionally, bathmaths outside the showers and bathtubs are essential to assure safety. Finally, while there appeared to be a few leftover condiment such as salt and pepper the provision of a few basic spices and cooking oils would have been a welcomed addition along with a salt shaker to accompany the pepper shaker. ##### Jackie R.

Jerry also provided an inflatable mattress and floor pads to accommodate teens sleeping . We enjoyed the back deck , watching the River levels rise and fall with the tides, saw seal swimming. Really liked the location close to groceries, coffee kiosk, with easy driving distance 9 mikes to downtown and 2.5 miles to Auke Bay for our charter fishing and whale watch tours. Close drive to a lovely lake for fishing and walks, to beaches for tidal pool exploration and picnic (Auk Valley), Lena Beach for camp fire and sunset, Amalga Harbor for bear watching, Echo cove , and the hatchery. Enjoyed fishing from shores. The dining room was great for card and board games as was the living room. Plenty of room in kitchen for meal prep for 15.
