If you are looking for spectacular oceanfront views with eagles and other rainforest and ocean wildlife Sunset Shore Lodging is a great place to begin your Ketchikan experience.
The large one bedroom apartment we offer has truly incredible ocean views through a wall of glass. A gigantic centuries old spruce tree that is frequently used by eagles stands in the yard just off your deck. The property is nestled on a beautiful sandy beach with perennial gardens throughout. You can pick wild huckleberries, blueberries, salmon berries, and currants as you walk through the yard to the beach.
The apartment is a mix of warm cedar and pine with an open beamed ceiling comfortably furnished with sofa and loveseat in the living area. There is cable tv with music and movie channels and a local phone with answer machine. There is a fully equipped kitchen and dinette with seating for four. The bedroom has a comfortable queen and an extra-long twin bed overlooking a small garden with a fish pond.
You can see the tops of totem poles from your deck that are just a short walk away at Totem Bight State Park and Potlatch Park. Together they are one of the largest collections of totem poles in North America. The natural beauty of the landscape and wildlife viewing opportunities are spectacular.
