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.

A bit worn.
No mention of the difficult 130 steps, or the diffIculting finding parking...

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!

Spotlessly clean, great in-town location, beautiful views, this place has it all, including a very accommodating host. We were very pleased and recommend it highly.

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.

Cute, walking distance to Baranof Fishing Excursions, restaurants, grocery store and points of interest. We stayed almost a week and had a great time. Mindy and her partner do a super job. The steps to the street will give you all the exercise you want.

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.

So much action on the water front, beautiful weather and an awesome view.....totally relaxing. Thank you for the opportunity to take in so much beauty from an eagles point of view. Will return again and again

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.
