Located in the heart of downtown near the docks at Thomas Basin.
Stay in the center of downtown near the dock. Everything is in close walking distance. The Stedman Red House is only a few steps from the harbor. There are 2 roomy bedrooms, both with adjustable, Tempurpedic, queen sized beds. There is also a small, upstairs loft with a good quality, fold-out, futon sofa. Both bedrooms and the loft as well as the living room have a TV. The house has an open floor plan with hardwood floors and vaulted ceilings. One of the nicest features of the house is the wonderful, private deck overlooking Thomas Basin, the city’s boat harbor. This is a rare find in downtown Ketchikan, to have a large deck with a harbor view. The deck is nicely furnished and is complete with a large gas barbecue. And, yes, there is an authentic, totem pole located just outside the front door. The pole is a classic Haida pole called Three Watchmen, Eagle, Raven Totem Pole. It is on the neighboring private property but viewable from the public sidewalk. This house has private off-street parking for 2 cars, another rare find in downtown Ketchikan.

We had absolutely everything we needed and the town of Ketchikan at our doorstep! The house was completely and very comfortably appointed. We loved having the back deck and grill—we enjoyed grilling and sipping wine overlooking the Thomas Basin. We would book here again in a heartbeat

Downtown location
Excellent location. Basic accommodation. TV requires you to sign up for or have a streaming service. If you cook, their is minimal spices, etc that are common in most VRBO properties. All appliances are excellent quailty. Directions for use are hard to find.
My husband and I , brother in law and sister in law went to Ketchikan on a fishing trip. This was a great house to stay at with a beautiful view of the harbor. It was in a great location as we were within walking distance to everything that we needed. The beds were super comfy and the place was nice and clean. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again if we went back to Ketchikan. Mary was great to work with and was always there to answer questions that I had.

Red House for Gheens
Overall we found the location was excellent. Clean, great views, and walking distance to center of downtown. I would certainly recommend to anyone.
However, we did encounter some issue, to which you did help resolve some of them. My notes below:
No VRBO notebook with information, internet, etc. Had to make calls to VRBO Contact Person (Mary), for basic info.
Did not have code for front door key.
Could not utilize family room TV? Battery issues or something else?
Bedroom worked. I didn't check other bedroom.
Internet gor phone/computer wifi keeps disconnecting. We also had internet completely out on Thursday afternoon and night.
Smaller Bedroom bed issues. Since there was no information notebook I had no idea that the bed was inflatable. I slept 3 nights (I didn't actually sleep), until I discovered remote to blow the bed up. Obviously a health issue.
Dishes in dishwasher. Appear clean but should have been put away.
The house was spacious, clean, comfortable, and well situated to either walk downtown, or enjoy a cup of coffee on the back patio whilst enjoying an excellent view of the ocean! Communication was prompt and accurate, can’t wait to come back!!
