About this property

CONVENIENCE WITH A VIEW!

Centrally located in a friendly neighborhood mid-way between Downtown Juneau and the Mendenhall Valley, it is convenience with a view at an affordable price. A large deck, with great sun exposure, looks out over beautiful Gastineau Channel, Douglas Island and the majestic Chilkat Mountain Range. A home with 2 comfy queen beds, 2 two twin beds (trundle bed) and if needed a queen sized fold down couch. Its a perfect place to rest after a busy day out and about.
Some things very nearby:
Just down the hill is Project Playground. In addition to two small lakes, there are shelters, a playground, open field and walking path. It's a pleasant place for a morning jog, mid-day outing or evening stroll. For more vigorous activity, hike up to the Salmon Creek Reservior and enjoy the peaceful sounds of birds and flowing water, takes about 2 hours. DIPAC, the local salmon hatchery is just around the corner (1.9 miles). There you can learn about the life cycle of salmon and view other local sea life. Watch returning salmon go up the fish ladder and perhaps spot a seal offering motivation. Enjoy a fresh grilled salmon dinner at the Salmon Bake, an outdoor eating experience with live entertainment, located on the bank of Salmon Creek (1.4 mi). Costco (1.7 mi) and Fred Myer (4.3 mi) are nearby grocery stores. For a quick snack or meal-to-go, the Breeze-In Bakery and Deli is a good choice (1.4 mi ).

Best bang for the buck!
This was a great place to stay with teens. It fits the needs of a budget conscious family. No frills, but everything you need! We loved the neighborhood and valued getting out of the downtown area!

Great rental for a long weekend
We had a great time just hanging. Around. I appreciated the kitchen being well stocked on the basics, coffee, cutlery, and other appliances. Better than I have had at most other vacation rentals, it made making what few meals we did make at the rental fairly easy

Pleasant, comfortable stay
W enjoyed our stay in Juneau in this bright, cozy 2-story home. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and centrally located to everything that Juneau has to offer. It was nice having separate thermostats in each room, and also a large mud room upon entry.

Perfect location, great experience
This was our first VRBO rental and it couldn’t have been easier or better. The location was perfect right between all the go-to Juneau spots. The property owner was flexible, helpful, and responsive quickly. The house was beautiful and perfect for our family, two couples and a young adult. Well worth the price.

About the host

Hosted by Merigwen Kawakami

Host profile image
Merigwen was moved to Juneau from California by her parents at the age of 6. Upon seeing the then muddy streets of downtown, she was less than impressed and started to cry. Fifty+ years later, she is still here...raising her three children with her Japanese husband, Tom and thanking her parents for the beautiful place she calls home.

Why they chose this property

This area of Juneau receives great sunlight from morning to night. No matter where you want to go, you are nearly there. It's easy access to bike paths and the city bus line. Best of all, I love the view of the Chilkat mountains.
