The host was gracious, friendly, helpful, and communicated great with us! The house was the perfect setup and location for our mission team. The bedrooms were all nice sized, the living areas were spacious with lots of comfortable furniture. The kitchen's were large and well stocked with everything we needed just like home. There was more than enough dishes and we prepared and ate almost all of our meals during the week at the VRBO. We could not have been more pleased and if we return back to Juneau next year we certainly hope we can stay there again!

We needed a large home for our large family and this home filled our needs perfectly. Our hostess was very kind and helpful in spite of having suffered a family loss. The view from the second floor back balcony is impressive. The home is just 5 minutes from the Mendenhal glacier and we took advantage of this. We had an epic trip to Juneau and this house was a big part of it for us.

The place was just as it was advertised. Eight roomy bedrooms with all amenities. The owner Rena greeted us with a big smile and personally gave our group a tour of the house. We enjoyed staying at this home very much.

Excellent House for Large Groups!
Excellent House for Large Groups!
We have stayed in a few houses in the Juneau area each year, but this home is the one that best accommodates our youth sports team! 7 large bedrooms, 4 large bathrooms, 2 full-size kitchens! The home is well-supplied with everything we need with plenty of space for our group, which is why we have stayed here for the past several years. The furnishings are up-to-date and comfortable, the beds have wonderful mattresses (which is noteworthy!). The house is spotlessly clean, inviting and "homey." The owners are very easy to work with. Because we are so involved with youth across the state, we appreciate that a portion of the lodging fees go to a children's charity.
