Juneau Estate

The house was perfect for our group, it was exceptionally neat and clean and had everything we needed. The location is close to town but far enough to be peaceful and quiet. We really loved the setting, it is surrounded by beautiful trees and wildflowers and the views were amazing! I would definitely recommend this place.

Family wedding trip

Lots of room for 11 of us of all ages, nice and quiet neighborhood. The kitchen was well stocked with implements and appliances. The furnishings were sparse, but very comfortable beds! Out only disappointment was that they couldn’t find someone in Juneau to repair the out of commission hot tub.

Wedding Week

Our family of 10 ( 6 adults 4 children ) gathered in Juneau for our daughter's wedding. This rental was perfect for our needs. We rented the house & apartment - which provided plenty of room for all. The location is close to hiking trails & an energetic walk to town! We enjoyed the hot tub after many of our outings & the kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. Thanks so much for everything

Excellent Location, property needs repair

Starting with the positives, the location of this property is great!! The beds were very comfortable. There were several items in need of repair - the oven didn’t work, a burner on the stove wouldn’t light, the hot tub was not working, screens were missing from the windows, the hot water was sketchy. The property was not clean when we arrived due to the previous guests late departure. This got our Alaskan vacation off to a bit of a rocky start. The on-site contact did her best, but she was put between a rock and a hard place. Hoping our experience was a one off for this property. Thankfully, we are a group that is just happy to be together, so we had an amazing time despite the lodging disappointments.

Disappointed

The property and location was very nice. This was my first time renting and actually being able to stay in a vrbo property. We rented the same property last year but had to cancel due to pandemic. But, the oven, microwave, and wood pellet stove didn’t work. This made it very difficult to spend time together as we could not cook meals on site. The wood pellet stove had an error code that indicated it needed required maintenance, thus wouldn’t work. We were looked forward to being able to warm by the stove after coming in from the he rain. It rains a lot in Juneau. I’m disappointed, it wasn’t better as I planned this trip for two years.

Very Clean. Close to Downtown

The house and apartment were very clean. We loved how close it is to downtown. The only issues we had were some confusion over where to park our 3 rental vehicles and I guess we didn't read that there's no air conditioning. We had some trouble figuring out how to turn the heat off in both places. We had to open windows to get some cool air in. We did have to wash towels a couple of times and the apartment didn't have bath cloths, but luckily we brought our own. We're not sure if the hot tub was in working order but we did see some technicians servicing it during our stay. I understand not wanting smoking in or near the property but they really should have some area for smoking because people do smoke, it's just a fact of life. Overall, we really enjoyed our time in this property and we'd book here again.

Nice place for a family reunion.

We had a very enjoyable time staying here with 14 people for a family reunion. My only complaints are that we were not told the oven was not working in the main cabin which was very inconvenient, the garbage was 90% full on our first day so overflow had to go in the garage until garbage day, and the garage door would not work so we had to manually figure it out, the upstairs deck looked unstable so it was not used, and the house keeper did not respond to text messages. Other than that the hot tub was great, the deck was peaceful, the beds were very comfortable, and it was a great experience and location!

About the host

Hosted by Rental Advisor

Why they chose this property

Places to eat!!! Juneau isn’t known for its fine dining. Having said that, when graded on a curve, the following are all excellent. Within walking distance (and in ascending order of formality/fanciness):

Tracy’s Crab Shack
Seong’s Sushi
The Rookery
Twisted Fish
Salt
In Bocca Al Lupo, an Italian place with wood-fired pizza.
The Sandpiper is a breakfast favorite of ours.
Coppa is a coffee shop, with homemade ice cream and weekly flavor specials, pretty close to the house.
Farther afield: The Island Pub on Douglas serves beer on tap and pizza. Zereldo’s, a 15-minute drive away in the Mendenhall Valley, is as good as Juneau gets.

What makes this property unique

Things to do:
You couldn't ask for a better location in Juneau than this lovely combo property. Lace-up those hiking boots and hit Flume Trail or Mt. Robert's Trailhead that starts just 1 mile away from this property.
Continue outdoor exploration when you book a fishing tour or cruise through Tracy Arm to gaze upon the mesmerizing blue hues of calving glaciers. This home sits within a 2-mile drive of a variety of tourist offices, so everyone is sure to find something alluring!
Get up close to these living glaciers with a guided hike in Mendenhall Valley. Located 15 minutes north of this apartment, the Mendenhall Glacier, waterfalls, and diverse wildlife are waiting to impress travelers of all ages.
If you're a museum-goer, you won't want to miss tours of the Juneau-Douglas City museum or the Alaska State Museum. Feed your appetite in the heart of town at the Red Dog Saloon, Rendezvous, or Hangar on the Wharf.
Hike! Go to the top of Evergreen Ave for a beautiful walk along the Flume Trail. The Flume leads to Mt. Roberts, Mt Juneau, and Perseverance trailheads. There is also great hiking at our local ski hill on Douglas Island, across the bridge.
Go whale watching or take a boat tour up the Taku Inlet.
Visit one of the beaches on Douglas Island.
Rent SUP boards at Blue Nose Surf or sea kayaks at Alaska Boat and Kayak Shop. Or rent a motorboat/skiff at Panhandle Power Boats.
Organize an adventure from the cruise ship docks downtown(e.g., zip-lining, dog sledding, fishing, and helicopter glacier tours). The tram for Mt. Roberts also boards here.
I'd like you to please see a movie. We have a tiny, family-owned repertory theatre downtown called the Gold Town Nickelodeon. There are also two other theaters playing new releases.
Go for a Tasting at the Alaskan Brewery in the Lemon Ck. Neighborhood.
