Hillside Haven - Secluded Guest Suite with Your Own Private Spa.
Hillside Haven Guest Suite is located in beautiful Auke Bay Alaska. We are located 1/8 of a mile past the Alaska Marine Highway Ferry Dock on a secluded piece of property just steps from Auke Nu Cove, a perfect place to launch your kayak adventure, and backed by Tongass National Forest where the hiking opportunities are limitless.
Auke Bay is a great place to start your fishing day for halibut and salmon or if you prefer, a whale watching tour to watch feeding Humpback or Orca whales. Watch eagles soar over the cove or perched up in a tree from outside your window, deer eating new green shoots of grass in the spring, or the occasional black bear patrolling the area in the fall all from your front deck. Our newly built accommodation is peaceful and private with plenty of room to relax and take in the beauty of a true Alaskan experience.
Come enjoy the Alaska that is waiting for you outside your front door.

This apartment is perfect. Full kitchen, with bbq’er off the front deck. Comfortable bed and lovely common area. It was close to town, but far enough to enjoy the wild of Juneau. Our host checked in on us just enough. We will be back. It was a wonderful home away from home.
The suite was very nice and clean, it was close to the ferry and close enough to town and amenities. We stayed for five nights and it was nice to have a clean, quiet place to stay after a day of hiking or other activities.
The property was absolutely perfect for our stay. It's secluded, but just a few minutes drive to town and all of the local attractions. The suite was well furnished and stocked with everything we needed. Theresa is so friendly, and an excellent communicator and host.
The property was idealic. Perfect getaway spot. Suite was neat and clean and very comfortable. The host, Theresa, was very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend this property to others hope to return.
We loved the location and beautiful scenery. Nice location and very easy to get around to the events we had planned. Hosts were pleasant and took care of all our needs and wishes. Hope to be back and would love to stay there again.
Beautiful wooded, private property. Nice open space with view to the woods. Heavenly shower tub jacuzzi bath combo. Floors seemed temp control because we were very comfortable without adjusting heat. Perfect for the two of us. Would stay again.
My husband and I spent a week at this lovely, peaceful Auke Bay cabin. The beautiful view from the sitting room window is of the forest with a glimpse of the bay. The kitchen is well equipped, the sitting room is relaxing and the bed was very comfortable. The owners were very welcoming. The location is great for those who want to be close to Juneau, but avoid the crowds. I would love to stay here again.
Magical setting , quiet and private with beautiful kitchen , cozy master bedroom, fabulous spa and calming view of Auke cove. We loved our stay and the host was so nice and easy to work with during our stay .
Excellent stay. Great property. The owners were friendly and welcoming. Visitor instructions were very clear. Fun and restful and a great place to have my sons over for dinner. Only one small pot, but we were able to borrow some so we could cook effectively. There was no laundry soap, so we called the property manager. She was not available, so we left a message and our number. We never got a return call. Other than that, the stay was pleasant and restful.
Awesome location and beautiful interior-could not ask for a more convenient and accommodating place to stay. Wish I could have stayed longer! The bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in at a rental.
This was our third stay in this rental, and we would rent it again in a heartbeat! It’s quiet and private and the property is lovely. There is plenty of hiking close by, it was close to the harbor for the boating activities we did, and it’s not too far to drive downtown for dinner out. If you like Indian food, try Spice! The best thing about staying here is that Theresa and her family are all so friendly and helpful. It’s been fun to get to know them over the years.
Convenient location for us. We had a rental car so we had no problems getting around. We prefer places where the masses are not so Auke Bay was perfect for us. Beautiful property, friendly hosts and all the conveniences we needed.
We enjoyed our visit to Juneau and the property location, away from the cruise ships and downtown, was perfect for us. The property manager gave us some good activity ideas and our week in Juneau was rewarding. The bedroom of the property was large and the bed was very comfortable. We had peek-a-boo views of a little cove below us. The spa mentioned is probably a dream for most people; however it was difficult for us to get in and out of as the side of the tub was high and difficult to negotiate for us. That said, we didn't realize there was a folded step stool to use for this purpose. The shower was great though once we got in there.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Juneau. We were here for the Ironman race and we definitely couldn’t have had a better location for that as we were 8min from transition, but we would come back and stay here for all future trips to Juneau as well due to its centralized location to all the fun adventures we were looking for.
The house had everything we needed for an amazing stay: a well stocked kitchen for making our own meals, laundry facilities, comfy King bed, bear spray for hiking, garage to store bulky items (like bike case) drawers for unpacking, and a shower/sauna/jacuzzi my husband couldn’t stop talking about. Theresa was super helpful with adventure suggestions and I loved hearing about (and tasting) her labor of love dried seaweed. Check in and check out and all communication in general was great. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. Can’t wait to come back!
Wow!! I do not think anything about our visit could have been better! Teresa was a lovely host and suggested many great restaurants and things to do. The shower/tub was delightful! The view was unbeatable. Remember to ask about the delicious seaweed snacks!
If you're looking for a quiet, spacious, beautiful place to call home while visiting Juneau, this is it! The apartment was ideal for taking in Juneau's natural wonders, minutes from trails and practically waterfront. Communication was simple and everything was as described.
