Great Place!!!

Amber and Michael, We loved the stay! Great spot with a great view. Five old friends hanging out after seven days of fishing. So very comfortable and convenient to town and shops. Everything you need in the kitchen. Really enjoyed meeting you guys and the kids.

Awesome hostess and beautiful views

First of all our hostess Amber was outstanding. She went above and beyond and made our stay delightful. She answered multiple questions about the area, shared a few items we didn’t have, and even gave us a ride to the airport. The location was great. Close enough to everything but far enough away from the cruise ships to have a peaceful experience. The views from the back deck were spectacular. We spent several hours relaxing and watching boats and planes pass. Ward lake and Settlers cove were both within an easy 5-10 mile drive. I highly recommend spending time at both. Over all this is an excellent vacation rental. Highly recommended. Thanks Amber for an outstanding experience.

Got to be best view in town

This unit is VERY spacious and very clean. Three private queen bedrooms with fairly comfortable beds, huge living areas and an open kitchen with lots of working area and seating for five with sturdy bar stools. A nice desk for working if you must. Beautiful laundry room with toiletries and coffee as well. The BBQ on the deck rocks, nice and hot :) The view is of course beyond compare, even the water pressure was great. The road out front can be busy so backing in is a must for parking. Highly recommend and would rent again in a heartbeat!

Incredible Spot!!!

First off, Amber was an amazing communicator. Totally friendly, helpful and responsive. Second, what an amazing place!! When you drive up, it's a 2-story building, not a house, which throws you off. But once you walk up the stairs and into the apartment... WOW! Everything is new. My family kept exclaiming how open and spacious it was. Very accommodating kitchen, living area and more. And then... THE VIEW! The deck out back was another favorite and really made this place shine above all others! We loved sitting on the deck and watching the bald eagles, cruise ships, many fishing boats and sea planes passing by! We barbequed on the deck and spent so much time sitting there enjoying the peace and quiet... so tranquil. And then the location! So close to everything and easy access. I can't wait to return to Ketchikan and will most definitely book to stay at Amber's place again!
