The location of the home was excellent if you enjoy walking. However, if you don't have a car, you do have some steep hills/streets to utilize going back and forth to town. The home is super cute, well maintained and had everything we needed. I do have to say, the King Bed was AMAZING! We slept like babies!!! Because we were in the middle unit of a three story home, we had to go up and down stairs quite a bit, but it wasn't bad. We did rent a car and parking is not good. You have to fight for a place to park because the only spot at the rental is for the top floor guests. One night we had to park about 4 blocks away down a steep hill. I enjoyed being able to leave the windows open and hear all of the happenings on the water. The top and bottom units had porches facing the waterfront, we didn't have that in the middle unit, which was a little disappointing, but we made do. Overall, this place is wonderful and we had quick responses from the host. We would definitely consider staying here next time!

The location was perfect to explore Ketchikan by foot or car. The apartment was spotless, very comfortable, and had lots of special little touches. Mindy was great to work with. If you don’t have a car, be aware that there are a lot of steps or hills to climb to get to the place (but that’s why it has such amazing views). This wasn’t a problem at all for us, though. We would absolutely stay here again as it made our trip more special. Be sure to look through the Welcome binder for helpful information about the apartment and the area.

We were upgraded to a larger unit for free. Clean. Quiet. Beautiful view. Great environment to come after being out in the cold/rain!! Everything needed to be comfortable. Effective written directions during stay. Willingness to accommodate extra requests. Will attempt to stay at this lovely place when visiting Ketchikan on a monthly basis.

I chose this rental for the view and it did not disappoint. Wonderful view. Mindy was very responsive to my inquiries. The entry was a bit tricky, but my tech-savvy husband figured it out (you have to touch the screen to make it light up). It comes with a full kitchen which we did not use since we were only staying two nights and there aren't any food stores within walking distance. We took the stairs down once and avoided them after that. Slippery (because it is always rainy/misty) and the banister is old and full of slinters. But we used the road and it made for an easy climb back up. Gotta "pay" for that view!

The property is centrally located, right where you want to be in Ketchikan. The entire town is set on a hillside, so be prepared for some steps and steeper streets! We had some trouble checking in but the host took excellent care of us and our visit was wonderful.

I absolutely loved the location, the view, and the overall vibe of the rental. However, the floor was very dirty, there were mail clippings, little spiders, old socks, and crumbs. The rug and carpet need a good deep clean and the place will be top notch again. The bedding could use a refresh as well.

This is the most beautiful view and cutest place in Ketchikan! You wake up and walk into the living room to the most beautiful view and coziest living room. It is such a charming place and the host, Mindy is just as charming, helpful and easy to access. Highly recommend and would go back in a minute! Look for "Baldy" our Bald eagle that flies by every morning ;)

We spent 4 nights here. Check in was easy and communication with the owner was also easy. The view is amazing! I sat for hours just staring out of the windows. The apartment was perfect for us 2 however, it would also be perfect for a family of 4 or two couples. We easily walked down to the town (restaurants/shops/brewery). On our second day we even saw a black bear by our steps! I highly recommend this vacation rental. Thank you!

Central location with optimal view

Central location with optimal view

The views and location are the best features. You can see the harbor, the mountains, the opposite island as well as docks and down town from here. You can watch boats, planes and even occasionally see bald eagles. We saw a bald eagles perched on the pointed rooftop next to the home and watched it fly away over the bay. The home is perched up on a steep hill. The only minus is the steep staircase leading up to the street if you're walking. It is an easy walk to Creek Street and other local eateries and shops as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Perfect Place with Great View

Perfect Place with Great View

Wonderful high-up view from large living room windows. Loved watching the clouds and light change over the broad long-distance view of the water and mountains. The apartment was very comfortable, good beds, and pleasantly furnished. Nice kitchen with staples. The owner was nearby and we had frequent helpful contact and help with our various questions and needs. The location was very good—easy walk to the downtown with its restaurants, museums and shops. Easy walk down to the Baranof fishing tour start point, a highlight of our stay. The 100 steps up to the property is not as bad as it may sound. We, in our 70s, did it many times. It was always easy to stop every so often and take in the wonderful view for a few minutes, if we needed to catch our breath. It is also possible to use the street access which is more gradual.

We had a great two night stay. The view from the living room is spectacular. The bedrooms were comfortable. Easy access to downtown. We managed to get the last close parking spot on the street each night. I could see this being challenging some days ... but worked out ok for us. Overall a good experience and would gladly stay again.
