Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2004

About us. Petr and I met in Dutch Harbor, Alaska in the early 80's. We heard about some remote property near Petersburg and built our rock house three miles from town. We hiked and boated for 16 years before we got the road. Fast Forward. Now our daughter is in grad school, I'm a teacher at the high school(7 years), and Petr does custom welding on fishing boats. The Lucky Loon is .2 mile from our house and we share the same fabulous view. We'll visit a little if asked but the Loon is your hideaway.

Why the Owner Chose Petersburg

Living on the waters of Frederick Sound provides endless entertainment from the birds and marine mammals that pass by daily. When our good friends decided to sell their custom home and "sail away" we knew it was a great opportunity to share our unique location with travelers from all over the world.

The Unique Benefits of this Beach House

This morning at 5 a.m. (May 22,2009) we had a humpback whale cruise slowly by. Close to town but a world away. If it's too "quiet" for you, wireless Internet and satellite TV provided.

    • Let's see...do you prefer waking up to the cries of bald eagles busily searching for a fish breakfast? Does a river otter cruising the kelp just offshore get your blood going? Or, like us, is your cup of tea having humpback whales cruise past the beach? The Lucky Loon offers all of this and more. Upon walking into the Lucky Loon, my husband and I were immediately impressed by the property. Expansive windows reveal million dollar views of Frederick Sound and glaciated Alaskan/Canadian mainland mountains to the east while blue and white bergs calved from Le Conte Glacier glide slowly past on tidal currents. The other three sides of the house are nestled amongst rain forest foliage that offer solitude and complete privacy. Occasionally a Sitka deer would make an appearance during our stay in the dense forest outside the kitchen window. Beyond the obvious attractions of location, privacy, quiet and the outstanding view, our hostess, Louise does a splendid job of making her guests feel at home. Whether offering area information or making certain guests are warm, happy and content, Louise is a wonderful hostess. We thought Louise went a few extra miles to ensure our stay was pleasant. That kind of hospitality is so welcome! The Lucky Loon is a beautifully appointed rental home, filled with all one may require during one's stay from a full, well-supplied kitchen to ample, plush fresh towels and a washer and dryer. The house is immaculate; linens are fresh, floors are clean and windows sparkle. Additionally, Louise thoughtfully chose decor inviting visitors to be comfortable, surrounding guests with colorful wall art as well as abundant summertime flower baskets on the wraparound deck. The Loon felt like home to us. This stay at Lucky Loon marked my husband's and my third visit to Petersburg, Alaska. There is so much to recommend about Petersburg. We come to be surrounded by and photograph high concentrations of summertime humpback whales, of which the waters near Petersburg offer unparalleled views. If you wish to see humpbacks without the nuisance of hordes of tourist boats---at this point in time---journey to Petersburg for some all day whale watching. Nearby Le Conte Glacier is spectacular whether viewed from the air, a kayak or a small glacier tour vessel. Plus Mitkof Island, on which Petersburg is situated offers miles of wilderness forest roads with many foot trails through stunning rain forest or muskeg environment. Petersburg is a great destination for photographers, offering subjects as varied as scenic Hammer Slough at high tide, colorful working harbors, tall rain forest giants and abundant wildlife, particularly whales. We cannot recommend it enough. I recommend renting a car if staying at the Lucky Loon as it is located an approximately 10" drive from the center of town. Looking forward to a repeat visit to the Lucky Loon. It is a very special property.

    • Our family had a wonderful vacation in the Lucky Loon. My daughter 7 and son 5 found the beach to be loaded with creatures to find and new things to discover under every rock. And the huge blueberries made for delicious blueberry pancakes. I found the wireless internet to be helpful in allowing me stay in touch with my business and allowing me to spend extra time in Alaska. It is tough to find vacation homes like this with internet too. The home was very comfortable and we had friends come visit and there was plenty of room for everyone. The large bbq was perfect for our steak dinners and shrimp from the local boat! The kids loved playing foozball on the ocean deck too! A wonderful place to spend a week! Best regards, Todd

    • We were so fortunate to find the Lucky Loon. It was our "Home Away From Home". Absolutely beautiful, clean and very comfortable. We highly recommend this place. Louise and Petr thank you!

    • We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lucky Loon. It was our first visit to Alaska and Louise made it memorable! Lots of activities in the area kept our family very busy and entertained, and the quite times spent watching the scenery from the back deck were invaluable. We highly recommend!

    • To those smart and wise enough to get this far into planning a vacation to Alaska SE this is where you want to be and do. It's been three months since I spent a week with family and friends and I am trying to figure when I will be able to return. Louise is a hospitality specialist who makes things work and enjoys what she is doing. The touches she has brought to her property is top shelf. She pays attention to detail and the comfort zone is high and plush. Our group kayaked out the front door and hiked non stop with resting on the front porch for a sunset and BBQ nightly. A travel tip-take the Alaska Marine Ferry from the south (Bellingham)to Petersburg and just let go into the Lucky Loon for as long as you can take the remarkable scenery, sea-life, and fun. If I could do it over I would have stayed longer and continued to enjoy the town of Petersburg and the fine people that populate the city. Just don't tell everybody-this unspoiled place can't last.
