Even on a rainy and cloudy day, the harbor view (eagles, fishing boats, seals and porpoises) was great. When the clouds lifted, the mountains were a treat!

This property and location worked great for us. Some road noise during busy times.
We saved Sitka for our last Alaska stop. This apartment was very nice , located in the middle of everything and views were beautiful. 5 Stars all around!
Stunning views of the Sitka sound. Bald Eagles of all ages could be readily seen thru picture windows as well as other marine life.
This was our first two nights in Sitka. We easily got around, visited shops, museums, took a tour at the science center on the water, and had a wonderful time. Almost all attractions could be walked if desired, if not, there are taxis available.
This VRBO met and exceeded my expectations. The location was super convenient, especially since we didn’t have a car most of the time, and the waterfront view was spectacular. There was some noise from traffic, but it quieted down at night. The tradeoff was more than worth it.
The spacious apartment had everything we needed to cook up family style meals, too.
My 14yr old and I had a fantastic stay in Sitka. This property is a GREAT location overlooking the water and crescent harbor (where most charter fishing boats meet their guests). It is walkable to most of the great restaurants and downtown shopping as well as the Sitka National Historic Park. Apartment has all the basics you need. Great hosts, easy process in/out, ample street parking close by if you have a car. Not a ton of privacy between the two bedrooms so something to keep in mind. Laundry is not en suite but easy to access down the hall, would recommend bringing quarters as the Wells Fargo was only giving change to customers.
Would stay here again.
Our stay in sitka was amazing the views were incredible. Everything was conveniently located. Fishing was fantastic. I loved Katy's place would stay again.
A perfect weekend getaway to celebrate our 35th anniversary! I ’ve been wanting to stay in a geodome. It was so cool! Everything was lovely, very clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and well-appointed. We loved the covered outdoor area with soaking tub and campfires. Great trails nearby for hiking. We chose to hang out and enjoy the peace and privacy but there’s a lot to do nearby. Rob was very responsive and provided very helpful information. We also appreciated it being pet-friendly. Wonderful stay!
We had a great time at this property. It was conveniently located and had a spectacular view! Communication with Katy was prompt and everything was as advertised. Definitely recommend.
This property has gorgeous views of Crescent Harbor through large picture windows! It is centrally located with easy access to many businesses in Sitka!! Highly recommend! Filled with all essentials and availability of washer and dryer!! Thanks!!!
First time to Sitka and anxious to plan a return. We came to fish and place served us well. Conveniently located to the main part of town, very cozy and clean, and great view of the water! We didn't cook - tea kettle in the morning and dined locally - kitchen table warmly decorated with place settings and place well stocked with the necessities. Katy is a great communicator. Thank you for the stay!
This property is located right in the middle of Sitka's downtown historic district close to shops, restaurants, parks, and the city harbor. The Sitka water's edge was only 50 yards from our living room window from which we watched boats, wildlife, and a lighthouse in the distance. In fact, we were awakened one morning to the sight and sounds of six bald eagles fighting over a fish less than 20 yards from our living room window! We had a fantastic stay. Thanks to the owners for sharing their wonderful accommodations with us.
Good central location for all activities and amazing view of Sitka Sound. It was one of those rare warm and sunny weeks in Sitka. It got quite warm, but only 2 of the windows could be safely opened. Others were screwed shut or not fully serviceable. My daughter said hot water would run out each day about 5 minutes into her morning shower, but my afternoon shower didn’t have that issue. It’s right above the main road to the airport, so more bustling than tranquil. Overall very comfortable place, and a really good spot to spend a few days.
5 stars – A wonderful stay in Sitka!This was a very comfortable stay and we truly enjoyed our time! The views were absolutely stunning, and even though we were close to the hustle and bustle of downtown Sitka, the area felt peaceful and quiet — a perfect balance. The apartment was older but updated and clean. One helpful note for future guests: the laundry facilities could use a little upkeep. The dryers seemed to have clogged lint traps, so it often took two cycles to fully dry our clothes, even with smaller loads. Each washer and dryer cycle costs 1.50, so when the dryer needed a second run, it added up to about 4.50 per load.It would also be helpful to have a small sign posted in the laundry area noting the cycle times — the washer takes about 30 minutes and the dryer about 45. If you're short on quarters, there are two banks nearby where you can get change.That said, everything else about the stay was wonderful and we would definitely return. Highly recommend!
This apartment is a winner: the location in downtown Sitka was walkable to shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and the meeting location for our Uncruise voyage.. Large windows In living
area provide great views and plenty of light. Furniture, including beds, all comfortable. Katy (property manager) is excellent. She is a delightful person, sensitive to traveller’s needs and goes out of her way to make sure guests are happy. Kitchen is well stocked, including lots of coffee. Highly recommend.

in downtown Sitka is terrific.
We booked this property because we didn’t think we’d have a car and it is within walking distance to harbor and shopping. I got nervous about our flyin time of midnight getting from airport so we ended up renting car. We were the only ones off the plane who did this. Everyone else got on a bus which we didn’t know anything about.
Apartment was easy to find and very clean. Didn’t mind the parking offsite, loved the views, and close to the food truck too! However, we weren’t expecting the noise from the street. Trucks beginning their acceleration up the bridge to airport seemed to happen at all hours, even people talking and laughing as they passed on the street were heard clearly. We kept checking if there was a window open. As we were leaving we opened a closet that had a fan which would have helped.
Katie allowed us to check in early, which was great after a long flight. The rooms were clean. The kitchen was stocked with coffee and filters. We cooked dinner one night and had all the pots, utensils, and things we needed. Groceries and sightseeing were within walking distance.
