Loved the area- the hiking trail nearby has incredible views , close to downtown - however, the Property seemed neglected-our apartment was clean a drip pan on old - but functional stove was broken - was not able to use that burner.the only other issue was when the guest staying in other apartment ( also a VRBO)) left- the next day we lost internet-the cable modem was in the other apartment- I think that the gentleman that lives in basement of other building had something to do with it because it was the next day ( not the day vacationers check out service went out) also the hot tub is in front of long term tenant’s window- so using it was a hard no for us - and for the people who stayed in the other apartment also. Yard was unkept, weeds and ground cover not maintained - in area behind the second building where it could be nice courtyard and hot tub put there- .

Great stay for Ironman Alaska!

Just as advertised. Not fancy but had everything we needed. Amazing view from the windows like you are in the trees. If you come for Ironman you will need a rental car as this unit is about 20 minutes from race stuff. The hot tub was fantastic to have.

Perfect location and size

Great location and size. Very clean. I dropped some of the stars only for lack of sleep due to the bed. This bed is soooo soft and not in a good way. I have stayed at many places and it is alway a medium or higher. So i did not sleep well. I tried the couch but it kinda cheap and part of the from will dig into your back. The kitchen is small and cute. Easy to work way. agoodceay.

A little misleading

The photos of the Vrbo property were a little misleading. It wasn't nearly as nice or updated as the photos would lead you to believe. The hooks in the bedroom were broken when we arrived, the couch was very uncomfortable, the hot tub was dirty, the shower curtain was gross, and the toilet paper was single ply. Also, the driveway area had no lighting, so it was very dark and difficult to see. Overall, it just felt like a place where the renters are trying to save money at every possible corner and the place needs updating.

Bare Bones

This place is bare bones. We enjoyed the walkability to town but that’s it. The bed is extremely soft, temperature is hard to control in the unit. No hairdryer, or ironing board. Missing a lot of things (including dinner plates) that would make for a better stay/kitchen. Pretty neighborhood, nice 15min (1mile) walk to town which we enjoyed.

Good location

You get what you pay for at this condo in Juneau! This is a very no frills spot, close to the hiking trails and the downtown scene. There was no toilet paper when we arrived, also no wash cloths. It is a lot cheaper than the local hotels though, so you should take those savings and go buy toilet paper at Fred Meyer before checking in.

Nice place. Small little changes would make a big difference

Recommend property: - small blanket too, along with just white sheets enough to stay warm or comfortable when the weather changes in Juneau. If sleeping in living room travelers don't carry blankets. - needed to buy paper towels , hand towels in kitchen specific the store only had six packs, a very small item that should be included. - include somewhere to place luggage on rack, or shelf instead only place on the floor. Overall nice place and convenient nice location.

Sterile and adequate

The property was clean and simple. No Alaska decor or, really, any decor. The view of mountain is hidden by two growing trees in front of window. There is a candle, but no matches or lighter. The water filter was nice. We both agreed that it did its job of a clean place to stay and wash clothes as we are on a long traveling SE Alaska trip, but wish there was more personality and special touches that we have found in other rentals or B&B. You can tell the owner probably doesn’t visit. It isn’t bad - it just depends what you like in a rental.

Next time we stay we will check for hidden smoke alarms first thing.

The space was limited but we didn't really need anything extra. What was great- The bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in and there was a pillow made for neck problems. It was a blessing. The tap water was very clean id drink from that tap. There were so many clean towels! Not so great- Sleeping on the couch, It was not comfortable to sit on let alone sleep on. There was a roll of padding we used to make it better. It actually got hot in Juneau and we realized there was no AC but opening the windows and using a fan was good enough. Not all windows had screens. There was not enough storage in the unit. A dresser or built-ins in the closet would be nice. :( While landlords don't control traffic or others outside factors so an annoyance was someone decided they were going to build a road right ouside out rental. It was pretty loud on a Monday morning. Then a smoke detector went off that had been hidden away in a drawer. That was the worst hide and seek ever. The stairs are covered so they stay dry through most of the Juneau rain. Washer & dryer was a bonus. The hot tub was nice but the lid is extra heavy. All in all I'd stay here again. Wish we didnt have to spend 20 minutes locating an unneeded smoke detector but it all went fairly well aside from that.

Why they chose this property

Just a mile from your doorstep, you can lace up your boots and hit the Flume Trail or the Mt. Roberts Trailhead for some of the best hiking in the area. Outdoor enthusiasts will also love the chance to book a fishing charter or embark on a scenic cruise through Tracy Arm, where you can witness the breathtaking blue hues of calving glaciers.

For hiking, head to the top of Evergreen Avenue to access the scenic Flume Trail, which connects to the Mt. Roberts, Mt. Juneau, and Perseverance trailheads. You’ll also find excellent hiking opportunities at Eaglecrest, our local ski area on Douglas Island, just across the bridge.

To really experience the magic of Juneau’s natural beauty, head 15 minutes north to the Mendenhall Valley for a guided hike. There, you’ll discover the iconic Mendenhall Glacier, cascading waterfalls, and abundant wildlife.

If you're a fan of history and culture, don't miss a visit to the Juneau-Douglas City Museum or the Alaska State Museum.
When hunger strikes, downtown offers a variety of classic Juneau eateries like the Red Dog Saloon, Rendezvous, and Hangar on the Wharf.

For a quieter evening, catch an indie film at the family-owned Gold Town Nickelodeon, a small repertory theater downtown. Prefer the latest blockbusters? Two other theaters in town screen new releases.

Other popular activities include whale watching and boat tours up the Taku Inlet, or relaxing at one of Douglas Island’s beaches. You can also rent stand-up paddle boards at Blue Nose Surf, sea kayaks at Alaska Boat and Kayak Shop, or even a motorboat from Panhandle Power Boats.

From the cruise ship docks downtown, you can book a range of excursions—ziplining, dogsledding, fishing trips, and helicopter tours to glaciers. You can also hop on the Mt. Roberts Tramway here for panoramic views of the city and beyond.

And finally, don't miss a tasting at the Alaskan Brewing Co. in the Lemon Creek neighborhood—a perfect way to toast your Alaskan adventure.
