Spacious Sunrise studio is located above our garage, providing an elevated view of surroundings from an abundance of windows that let in both the beauty and the light. The mountain and water views allow guests to enjoy the gorgeous wilds of Alaska from their own cozy haven decorated in warm hues of a sunrise. The queen-sized bed is a comfortable sleeping space for a couple, while the double sofa-sleeper provides additional sleeping space for children.

The rental is located right on historic Treadwell townsite, where guests can enjoy lazy walks through the forested trails that were once the streets of a booming gold mining town. Peppered with historic buildings, informative signs, and relics from times long past, the trails wind past babbling brooks out to Juneau’s best beach where views of Gastineau channel are made all the more beautiful by a backdrop of precipitous waterfalls cascading down to the shore. Sandy Beach Playground is a short jaunt further down the beach or trails. And for those wanting to gain some elevation on a longer hiking adventure, Mount Jumbo trailhead is just a five-minute walk around the corner.

When hungry, guests will enjoy the ease of preparing food in the fully equipped kitchen or on the bbq, or may instead choose to take a short scenic walk to the Douglas café or Island Pub, where they make amazing pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven. Other dining options, shopping and adventure also await in downtown Juneau, which is just a 10 minute drive in a private vehicle. You can also enjoy the convenience of public transportation to reach Juneau, with buses running every 30 minutes from the stop located just a block away.

We have strong unlimited internet, so you should have no problems connecting for telework or to share your adventures with friends and family. Other amenities that will make a stay more comfortable include a flat screen tv equipped with Roku for movies and entertainment, a washer and dryer, and private off-street parking. Because the unit is on the second floor, it must be accessed by stairs, and so it not a good fit for anyone with mobility issues.

Sorry, no pets or smoking inside the apartment or on the grounds.

Note: Our family of four lives in the log home adjacent to the rental. Although we are very respectful of our visitors with regard to noise, a bit of mild family sounds should be expected here and there during normal waking hours (7a-10p), such as our kids and friends and/or our bernedoodle pup romping around the property. Most of the time our location is very serene. Please feel free to inquire if any questions!

    Very comfortable had everything we needed for an extended stay, less than 15 minutes to all of the events we had scheduled. 20 minutes or less to the Airport it was perfect for our trip will definitely add to our favorites.

    We loved our stay so much that we opted to stay there one day in lieu of any expeditions. The beach access and views were stunning. Having a kitchen and w/d made it feel like a home away from home. We were VERY pleased and hope to stay there again!

    This was just perfect for our stay in Juneau while visiting family. Beautiful inside and out and stocked with everything you need in a vacation rental. The host family could mot have been more gracious.

    The rental was roomy, clean, and very functional...it is a completely separate building with a good degree of privacy. We enjoyed the outdoor sitting area with a gas firepit and overhead heater. From there we had a great view of Mount Roberts and were able to watch cruise ships, planes, and helicopters come and go from Juneau.We really enjoyed being a few minutes away from downtown Juneau. Although a fun town, the crowds from the cruise ships can be difficult. About every other night, we ended up at the Island Pub very near the rental...good food, fair prices, and no crowds of boat people waiting for tables.Karin was a great host, communication on all issues was tremendous. The check-out procedure is the best that we have encountered in many years of VRBO rentals. It was pretty much like leaving a hotel room, not the long list of items that some hosts require.

    This is a perfect getaway from downtown Juneau with trails close by and easy beach access. From the window you can see cruise ships sliding in and out of the channel framed by trees. The owners were helpful and their pdf had great tips on dining. We highly recommend this place.

    We had the most wonderful stay, everything was just as described only more beautiful! The carriage house had the most beautiful view! Karin gave great recommendations of places to see and we traveled all the roads. The path down from the house was amazing including walking on the beach during low tide. We have shared with our friends and we plan to come back again soon!
