We were in Juneau 4 days and loved every minute! The view we had from the window overlooking the channel was beautiful, we loved seeing the tide changes and watching the eagles. It was very quiet, we slept great! Highly recommend staying there, and hope we will be able to stay here again.
This rental has everything you need for your stay in Juneau. The host provides everything imaginable. The location is great! This is a quiet alternative to busy downtown. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet place to stay in Juneau.
As previously reported, the views are spectacular. Visitors should note the highway out front has a bicycle path, also making it safe for walkers and joggers. Apartment is as pictured and super clean.
Simple apartment style housing attached to main house but with a separate entry. Wonderful view of Gastineau Channel with lots of eagles, raven, and shorebirds seen daily. Out of town made for a very quiet and peaceful stay. Lovely owners were very friendly and informative when we made contact. Would absolutely stay here again.
My wife and I rented for 6 nights. The host, Tom, was a great guy, very helpful. The rental is a small upstairs apartment and is part of a family home on Gastineau Channel. The view was lovely and despite typical May Juneau weather (cold and rainy) was cozy and warm. Access to the rental was up 12 fairly steep stairs on the outside of the house. Keep this in mind if you have lots of luggage or mobility issues. The wifi was stable and fast. The apartment was very clean and fully stocked with paper goods and bathroom amenities. The only suggestion for extra ease would be a tea kettle for heating water. The apartment is located along N Douglas Hwy. My wife is very sensative to noise and she would notice the occasional loud vehicle. I never noticed them. There's a very comfortable chair and hard couch (which makes into a second bed) in the living area. There is an apartment next door but the person was very quiet. The unit had plenty of room with all the necessities for 2 people. You will need to have a car for transportation if you stay here. The best feature for us was the location. It was across the channel from downtown and all the cruise ships but only 10 or 12 minutes by car if we wanted to go downtown.. Juneau is a beautiful area with lots of things to see and do. We spent 6 nights before our cruise enjoying the area.

Perfect for our family of 4
We loved the friendly atmosphere and beautiful view. This place had just what we needed for a family of 4 to enjoy Juneau. Very comfortable beds and pillows, kitchen, welcoming host, easy access to town and serene setting. Thanks for a lovely stay.

It was nice to host you during Celebration. I'm glad you chose to stay with us.
We stayed here for a week. The apartment was very clean, had all the basics we needed. A lovely view, and was a short drive into downtown Juneau. If we ever have the opportunity to visit Juneau again, we would definitely consider staying here again.
This was perfect for us. Very quiet and private, away from the city but a collar drive to everything. Watching the tide go in and out was fascinating. We fished and tried our the rowboat at high tide and it was so beautiful and fun. They let us know what the northern lights were out so we got pictures of aurora, even just from the bedroom window. Overall great stay. We would love to go back!
Great location out of town, but still close. You can see more eagles out the living room window than at eagle beach. Close to the dipac hatchery which was cool to visit. And lots of awesome trails near by. Owners were frendly. We would definately stay here again.
I really loved staying here for a couple nights! The view was lovely- at any time I could look out and see dozens of eagles on the mud flats. The apartment itself was absolutely spotless and very comfortable, with plenty of kitchen supplies for cooking at home!

Everything was great
The apartment on Douglas Island was perfect for our stay in Juneau. We were close to both hikes and tourist things. A favorite was a walk though the abandoned Treadwell Mine with interpretive signs.

The zipline that goes over some of the Treadwell ruins is also fun.
We enjoyed the lovely view of the tides coming in and out, the bald eagles and other birds on the water. Our daughter loved staying in the loft (fold-up ladder to climb up to it). Everything was clean and the host communicated well.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cute little apartment. Kids could play upstairs in the loft while we prepared meals and/or tidied up. We were surprised to find some great hiking trails nearby along with a nice sandy beach/park (not walking distance mind you). We definitely would stay here again should our travels bring us back to Juneau!
The apartment looks over the water which greeted us every morning with the sounds of various birds singing. The place was immaculate and stocked with everything we needed. We had to contact the owners due to a beeping from the fire alarm, they quickly replaced the battery, and then contacted us to make sure everything was satisfactory. I would stay here again.
This second floor apartment has everything you need. It has a comfortable bed, a beautiful view and wonderful property managers. The kitchen ballast went out and a time was scheduled immediately to get it fixed! I highly recommend this place if you are coming to Juneau.

About the host
Hosted by Merigwen Kawakami
My husband came to Juneau as a foreign exchange student from Japan at the age of sixteen. He was the momentary envy of his classmates when during a school assembly it was announced that the country he would be going to was AMERICA. Envy turned to laughter when the state was announced. He wouldn't be going to California or New York but ALASKA. The perceived notion and disappointment of being sent to a frozen wasteland ended when his airplane landed and his love of fishing began. After marrying and living in Japan for several years, we decided to return to Juneau to be closer to family and fishing. My husband is a business consultant. I'm a former teacher who now works seasonally for the Alaska State Legislature. We have three children and a large cat named Skippy.
Why they chose this property
When looking for a place to build our home we both wanted to have a view of something. This location offered not only a view of water and mountains but the Lemon Glacier, as well as beach front. In the summer we see a lot of rainbows and in winter the Northern Lights. Canadian geese and swans stop by as they migrate. Ducks and Bald Eagles are always about. On occasion bear, porcupine and deer wander through the yard.
What makes this property unique
In addition to being in a quite location and having a beautiful view, fishing is only minutes away. King salmon fishing can be done off of the rocks at False Outer Point or in the stream at Fish Creek. Starting about mid-August Silver salmon can be caught right outside the front door and then grilled. A small boat is available if you care to row about during high tide. Hiking and the Alpine Zipline are available at nearby Eagle Crest, Juneau's winter time downhill and cross country ski resort. Or do a short hike on Outer Point Loop Trail or Rainforest trail. A twelve minute car ride to the south of Douglas Island puts you at Sandy Beach and the trails that wind through the ruins of the Treadwell gold mine. Or cross the Juneau-Douglas bridge and be in downtown Juneau in 10 minutes to shop, eat, visit museums, historic sites, ride the tram or hike Perseverance and the Mount Roberts Trails. The Mendenhall Glacier is about a 20 minute drive, as is Auke Bay.
