We had a wonderful stay! The check-in instructions were crystal clear, the home was sparkling clean, and the location was ideal for exploring. The host was very responsive and easy to reach whenever we had a question. Highly recommended and would gladly stay here again !

Catherine's home is truly special and we enjoyed our time here so much that we could barely bring ourselves to get out and explore Juneau. We were so at peace enjoying the view and watching eagles perched on the trees in the backyard. Nothing in the house indicates that it is a rental property - truly everything is of quality and the kitchen especially is well equipped. We would love to return one day!

Phenomenal location. Nestled in the pines giving great privacy, terrific wildlife viewing as the chum salmon peak their spawning. No need for any other entertainment than watching all age groups of Eagles feed in the channel, negotiate hierarchy, and nest. Home is elegant with simplicity and high end finishings. Contemporary, new construction, with great workmanship on concrete flooring. Heated flooring in the bathroom is a treat. Excellent, high functioning washer & dryer. High end kitchen in the middle of the home provides incredible views but lots of space for the family to work together in meal prep and mealtime.
I have stayed in dozens and dozens of airbnbs and this home is truly my favorite.

My husband and I enjoyed staying in this lovely cabin for a week long fishing trip in Juneau. There’s plentiful wildlife and scenery off the back patio, the home was in perfect condition, one of the newest, cleanest VRBO’s we’ve stayed in, and very well stocked. If we return, we will stay here again! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
