About this house rental
Come stay with us in this beautiful, Alaska Red Cedar log cabin was milled and manufactured by the owner, Larry Jackson of Tongass Forest Enterprises during the summer of 2015. Guests will find the unit equipped with a full kitchen, chest freezer, laundry room, digital tv with cable, wireless internet, bbq grill and sleeping accommodations for up to 6. Guests will also have access to a private dock, 28' uniflight or 16' com-pac sail boat and Dodge Caravan.
World-class King salmon fishing is located right off the private dock on the property. The best Silver fishing in Alaska is only minutes away from the dock and guests can see pink salmon jumping all around the area. There's no need to travel far. All of your fishing can be done in the calm waters around Knudson Cove/Clover Passage. The 28' uniflite boat is available for guests to take for self-guided trips, as part of the daily package rate. There is also the option of day sailing in a 16' sailboat. The owners have a check-out, orientation process to inform the guests about the features of the boat, fishing gear and fishing boundaries. Larry and Leslie own the 38’ F/V Alaskan, which is also available for guided fishing charters.
During the summer months, the whale watching is extraordinary in Knudson Cove. Guests can often see Humpback Whales bubble feeding and pods of Killer Whales swimming by, right from the dock. Eagles, otters, seals and sea lions are some of the animals that guests will see on a daily basis.
This cabin is located on a private lot off of Potter Road in Knudson Cove. The lot is adjacent to residential and commercial lots. There is kayaking and a zip line course a half mile away, and a full service marina with liquor store and convenience store. The property is located 15 miles north of Ketchikan on the road system. Downtown Ketchikan is a short, 20 minute drive away. Flightseeing, Alaska Native art, museums, hiking awesome fishing opportunities, there's something in Ketchikan for the entire family!

The property is back from the water and dock, but has a view out through trees to the water from the patio. It was very nice to be able to walk down to the dock and take the boat out whenever we wanted. The boat and house were well maintained and communication with the owner was smooth, as was the check-in. The kitchen was appropriately stocked with supplies and the cake was welcome. The van worked OK and made the trip very convenient - just walk off the plane, grab the van and be in the house and even on the water with no hassle or lines.

This is my second visit to Kingfisher Cabin, and I highly recommend this place for the location, fishing, and equipment.
The cabin and location is ideal. Leslie and Larry are fantastic. We were welcomed by a basket of blueberry bread and canned salmon. The blueberry bread was delicious and the salmon we saved for home. Having a boat available to fish all day is worth the trip. The twin engine is fully equipped to fish either halibut or salmon and we caught plenty. We hired Larry for a charter and caught even more fish. The house is fully equipped with everything including a deep freezer and their is a large marina less than a mile from the house where you can vacuum pack your fish or there is a packer next door to the marina and they will pack it for you.
You can not go wrong with this rental.
