Great place! The only reason I’m giving it fewer stars is because VRBO listed the location as being in downtown Juneau when the boat is actually located in the Valley. This was a VRBO listing issue and was not the hosts’ fault. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful when we brought the location issue to their attention and did everything they could to help.We absolutely loved the boat and the setup. We sat on top watching sunsets every night and even got to watch seals haul out onto the docks. It was such a unique and peaceful experience. Falling asleep to the sound of the rain and gently rocking with the boat was honestly one of my favorite parts of the stay.Even with the location discrepancy on VRBO, we would absolutely stay here again. We could not rave enough about how unique and memorable this stay was! And got to also explore a new area of Juneau!

The most unique Airbnb we have ever stayed in. It is an active marina, so it was entertaining to watch all of the boats come and go. Superb views.
