It is clean, convenient to downtown and it is quiet. The owners are friendly and helpful. There is a reference book that answers every question you might have. We loved it so much we have already booked for next summer! Jill Potter

Amazing stay and experience

We booked Sandie and Peter’s place for my son for his internship as we’re from Anchorage. The location was perfect and had all the amenities that he needed for his stay. He was there for almost 5 months. The neighborhood is beautiful and was so easy to walk to the Capitol/downtown area. They communicated well with us and made us feel at ease that he was able to stay in a comfortable and safe place. Thank you again!

Perfect base camp

My daughter and I stayed at Metcalf Mannor for several days last week. We found it the perfect base camp for our in-town explorations. The place had recently been refurnished and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the extra touches like the "welcoming" treats in the fridge. Sandy, our host, was very accomodating. She was also right there should we have needed anything at all. A very pleasant stay, centrally located and reasonably priced. I would recommend Metcalf Manner to any small parties wanting to explore Juneau and surrounds.

Older impressions

Pleasant,quiet and clean. Our only comment is that the Murphy bed should be oriented vertically. It is very difficult for the senior on the inside to conveniently get up in the night. But we managed! Parking regulations were not enforced?

Perfect spot in Juneau

We had a wonderful 3 nights at this perfect studio. It's comfortable and well-furnished, and a great "home base" for exploring this rugged and gorgeous town. Our 8-year-old daughter thought the fold-out couch was the best bed ever. Sandy and Peter are great hosts. Hope to return sometime soon, and would stay here again.

Perfect

Stayed here for the folk fest, and it was perfect. Easy walk to all downtown and the warf area. Place was clean and convienient and had all you need for a pleasant stay. It may not work for you if you need fancy or chic, but was great for a retired couple that has roughed it in much worse conditions. This place was FAR from roughing it.

Great place to stay!!!

We had a wonderful stay at Metcalf Manor!! As soon as we walked in the door we felt like we were home. Very comfy, clean and well stocked in every room with whatever you might need. Sandy is so sweet and accommodating!! We travel a lot and have never walked into a place and felt like it is where we belonged for the moment! Will definitely recommend and stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Metcalfe

Host profile image
Your hosts, Sandy and Peter Metcalfe, are well-connected residents of long standing. Peter is a fourth generation Alaskan and Sandy, originally from Cleveland has lived here since 1974 and raised 3 sons. Peter and Sandy were married in 1992 and soon after moved into the four-plex they occupy today. They are happy to share insights to the places to see and things to do and advise on outdoor logistics and opportunities.

Why they chose this property

The downtown area was the only place we wanted to live. Downtown Juneau has charming, friendly neighborhoods and is a hub connecting us to family, outside enjoyment, restaurants, government connections, breathtaking vistas, and marinas - all accessible by foot.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful vistas any direction you look.Easy access to world-class hiking many (I mean many) trails in the Basin, Cope Park, Mt Robert's (we like to hike up and take the Tram down), Mt Juneau, the docks and harbors. Our beautiful neighborhood is in an historic district that includes the Governor's Mansion. We are within short walks of the Juneau and Alaska museums, and the Juneau and State libraries, providing easy access to sources of Alaskan culture and history. Both Sandy and Peter are professional photographers, and Peter is a writer and publisher well known for his in-depth knowledge of Alaska history, Alaska Native culture, and the environment.
Our studio apartment ideally suits the traveler that comes to Juneau to explore.
