10 of us had a lovely stay at this property to celebrate our friend before her upcoming wedding. We loved the hike that is right out the back door (up to a national forest cabin), the hot tub with view, and the huge amount of space to hang out in the kitchen/dining/living area.
Everything was clean and comfortable.
The only snags we hit were around communication and checkin (they thought our booking was for a different day than it was), but the hosts made it all work and resolved issues quickly.
Would recommend!

Love this rental!
It was the perfect place for our multi-generational family to stay while in Juneau for our daughter's wedding. It is a large house with a great open space for everyone to gather without feeling crowded, but also feels cozy with a variety of comfortable seating arrangements to choose from. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed to cook a few meals. The bedrooms were spacious, some had additional seating, and the beds were comfortable. The rental has a big deck along the back of the house with a hot tub and amazing views of downtown Juneau, the channel and surrounding mountains. A view that never gets old as it changes throughout the day.
The owners have done a wonderful job anticipating the needs of guests. Everything is very clean, and well organized. We rented this property with the optional bunk room for additional space. We would not hesitate to rent this house again in the future and would highly recommend it to others. This rental is in a great location, not too far from downtown. If you have never been to Juneau, I suggest you rent a vehicle. It's the easiest way to get around.

We booked this property because of the hot tub and the view, and it did not disappoint. There was no AC, which was fine for most of the 10 nights we were there, but it got to be in the 80’s with the warm spell we had for a few of the days so that made it tough to stay cool. They had all the things we needed there and the owner was quick to respond to the couple of things that needed to be addressed. If we headed back to Juneau we would 100% stay there again and we have already sent the booking link to many friends who were asking where I stayed.

Our family of 7 adults could not have enjoyed our stay in this pristine Juneau home more. We visited in June for our son's high school graduation trip and were blessed with spectacular weather (60s and 70s all week with almost no rain), which made enjoying the views from this fantastic vacation property a real treat. The home is clean and comfortable, with plenty of room to spread out when we wanted a little "space," but excellent gathering areas in the living room or deck when we wanted to be together. The hot tub was wonderful and we used it every single day. All bedrooms were great and as advertised, the kitchen was fully furnished and had some leftover spices/coffee etc. in the pantry. Bathrooms were spacious and clean. Because it was very warm during our stay, the house did get a little hot (no air conditioning in these Alaska houses), but there was a floor fan in every bedroom and a spare that we could use in the living room when gathering. Between fans and keeping the windows open, we were able to keep the house quite comfortable. TVs in living room and master BR had Roku and we were able to log into all the streaming apps during our downtime. Hosts Erin and Reuben lived right next door and were responsive to any questions by text.
In all, a 5-star stay in all respects and we are glad we decided to do an extended Juneau stay instead of port-hopping on a cruise ship!

Beautiful home, in a great location overlooking the Gastineau Channel and downtown Juneau. The home has the look and feel of a modern cabin. Nice big kitchen, cozy living area ,big nicely furnished bedrooms and a deck with a beautiful view. It was about a 10 min drive to Juneau and maybe a 30 min drive to Mendenhall Glacier. This was our first visit to Alaska and thankfully this home was just one of the many joys in visiting this beautiful state. I need to go back and when I do, I'll definitely stay here again. My only little tiny gripe was the deck chairs were a little worse for wear. But again, I loved the home and i would highly recommend it.

This find is a roomy comfortable home perched high on Douglas Island, overlooking the Gastineua Channel and Juneau. One of us used the hot tub every day. There was the right amount of privacy for our 3 generation family.

We had 12 family and friends staying together. The property was comfortable, spacious and immaculate. We were able to find quiet spaces when needed and had great social spaces for gathering and fun. There wasn't a single thing we needed and looked for that we didn't find. Truly a spot of paradise in Juneau.

We came up from Maryland to visit family- and decided kind of late in the game to rent a house for the weekend to maximize our quality time together. It was the best decision ever. The house is even more awesome in person if that’s even possible. We all fit so comfortably and it felt like home. We were thrilled to be able to have a place to cook a few meals together, play some games and relax. This could not have been a better location. The view is amazing. The home is so comfortable. If you’re on the fence, book it. We can’t wait to come back next year. Thank you so much for the memories we made here!

Juneau Ski Trip
The place was perfect, we pilled a group of 10 friends into the house for a long weekend of skiing, there was plenty of room for all our gear. The living room/kitchen area was a splendid communal area to cook and hang out in. The view was amazing once the fog cleared! 10/10 will rent again!

We had a fabulous time at this property! We are locals to the area and treated ourselves to a long weekend on the hill. The house is beautiful with a stunning view of downtown Juneau and the Gastineau Chanel. The house is flooded with natural light, tastefully decorated, and very specious throughout. The hot tub was the cherry on top! The owners were quick to respond. It was hard to leave but we can't wait to visit again.

The views!!! The hot tub!! What can I say? This house is absolutely gorgeous! It is well stocked with everything you need. The kitchen was big and our group of 8 loved cooking dinner and eating breakfast each day. A cooler was also provided which was fantastic so we could pack a lunch and keep it cool for hikes and excursions. Erin even had cans of bear spray available!! Juneau was our first stop during our Alaskan vacation. It was by far the best VRBO we stayed in during our trip. Erin was a fantastic host and made sure that we had everything that we needed. The beds were comfortable and the blackout shades helped. Be aware there are skylights in each room, but didn't really bother anyone. Every evening, we enjoyed time in the hot tub overlooking downtown Juneau. It was absolutely perfect! Thank you for renting to us! I've already sent your listing to another family that is interested in booking Juneau!
