The Shack is a recently remodled wash house from the original homestead. It sits next to the main house back in the woods with views of beautiful Auke Bay Harbor.
The Shack is close to hiking, University of Southeast, and city bus lines.
The original homestead was and is a school bus yard. Nights and weekends are very quiet, school days are busy (I have lived on site with my wife 2 kids, dog and chickens for the past 18 years), but only for a few hours a day. In the end most people are not here to stay indoors.

    Property is a nearly finished guest house. If you want a decently priced, comfortable, rustic lodging this is for you.

    The location was awesome! Loved getting to explore around the area. The shack was perfect for 2 people. Only wish they had darker curtains since the sun is out so early and late in the summer!

    This location worked great for me. I loved looking out the side window at the forest. If there was noise it wasn’t noticeable to me. I needed a place to stay while my group was out fishing and it fit the bill perfectly. Thanks K for making everything so easy. If I’m back your way I will definitely stay again.

    The challenge is that it’s located to the school bus storage lot, so lots of noise of buses backing up with that beep beep beep sound. Also, a blow dryer in the bathroom would have been a nice amenity.

    The listing was technically correct, but didn't truly represent the the place. The view to beautiful Auke Harbor was across an industrial area and school bus depot. Several of electrical outlets and switches had no cover plates. The kitchen was woefully inadequate. The curtains were hemmed with safety pins and binder clips. The towel rack fell off the wall. We left after the first night and advised the host accordingly. To the host's credit, at our request, we were refunded our payment for the remainder of our reservation.

    A quaint small property that we will try to stay at in the future.
