Home away from home in scenic coastal Alaskan rainforest

The view was amazing. It made for a relaxing visit, with the awesome ability to get to the beach in short order. The house is an interesting layout (which we love about Juneau homes) and the decor fit right in with Cohen drive.

Five of us stayed at this wonderful home. There was plenty of room, the kitchen was well equipt and it was clean and comfortable. We saw whales and eagles almost every day before we even left the house. The house is on a quiet street and close to many nature trails yet still only a 25 minute drive from Juneau. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it.

Terrible Experience – Regret BookingWe stayed here for two nights with family and it was a disaster from the start. Communication with the host was poor, and when we arrived, the house was unlocked with dog poop all over the entrance. The entrance code provided was wrong which we discovered the next day. Inside, one bathroom and the laundry room had really bad water leaks, and the other bathroom had a clogged sink. The owner lists this property through his daughter but seems completely unaware of what’s happening. Worst of all, they knew about these problems before our stay yet made no mention of them when we booked. The house is far from downtown Juneau, in poor condition, and wildly overpriced for what you get. The only positive is the view—if you’re still in the mood to enjoy it after dealing with all the problems. I wish I had booked somewhere else.

Great place to stay. Very comfortable. Outside of town and quiet. Easy access to airport and ferry harbor.

We loved our stay at this house. The water and mountain views from the house and the balcony are great. The walk down the long flight of steps to the rocky beach below is a great way to get your morning exercise and get more great views. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is pretty well-stocked. The house has not been recently modernized but it's in good shape. We stayed here for a few days before departing on an Alaskan Dream Cruise leaving out of Juneau. We rented a car through Turo so that we could visit the town to Juneau, Mendenhall Glacier and some hiking spots. Saw the salmon running at nearby Eagle Beach State Park (beautiful park with lots of birds too) and there are lots of other trails and things to see along the Glacier Highway and other parts of Juneau. This was a lovely home base for our visit.

Let me tell you the when we got to the property we had been flying for 9 hours not bad but when we walked onto the back porch the view was amazing! It was like 1am when we finally arrived but you could hear the eagles calling out and the waves hitting the rocks down below. We couldn’t sleep so we sat out on the back porch just listening to all the nature. We saw porpoises, orca, salmon jumping and heard humpback whales splashing. There was even a sweet bear just being nosey with the flowers and stairs later that week we saw his girlfriend! Everything was stocked we didn’t really need to buy anything. We had a great time. There was some snags but we contacted the host and got it all settled.

Amazing view, great house and an even better host.

We were here to attend a wedding. The home is cozy, well decorated with all that we needed. The view from the back of the house/ deck is amazing. We definitely would recommend! Many thanks to our host!

Great view! The place was clean when we arrived and Alice was super friendly and helpful. Perfect distance from town where food, entertainment, and groceries were convenient. Everything you need for cooking was provided in the kitchen. Many things to do and see in the area. We would highly recommend and visit again!

Love the location. Couldn't get enough of the quiet nights listening to the waves and salmon jumping while out in the back deck.
