Great location away from the cruise traffic, recently renovated, and extremely comfortable!
We traveled to Ketchikan for a family guys trip and had an exceptional experience at The Fishing Shack! Checking into the house was a breeze and even before we arrived, the owner sent us a multiple-page document with house information, things to do, and nearby restaurants/stores. I've never received anything so detailed and it was very helpful being that we've never stayed in the area before. The location was perfect being on the Northern end of town as this allowed us to stay clear of all the cruise ship traffic downtown. And even when we wanted to venture downtown to eat or walk around, it was only a 15-minute drive. The house was recently renovated and the owners did a fantastic job doing so! The exterior was beautiful and had a huge porch and the interior was decorated very nicely and was very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with just about anything you could need or want so there wasn't much that we had to bring in - except for bottled water and beer! The bedrooms were all comfortable and everyone had plenty of room to spread out. The bathrooms were all very nice and had good water pressure. Everything in the house was in great working order! The owner, Roger, was extremely accommodating and provided excellent recommendations. We had a hard time finding a fishing charter and Roger set us up with someone who was able to squeeze us into their schedule and was fantastic - we caught a few coho salmon and a giant 38" king! This is the perfect place to stay in Ketchikan!!
