Waterfront only 2 miles from downtown! Sleeps 8. Amazing Views!
These vacation rental units are located only 2 miles from downtown Ketchikan. The house is as close as you can get to the ocean on a busy waterway where all of the large ships come through on the way in or out of the Ketchikan harbor. Otter, seals, orca and humpback whales are frequently seen. There are eagles that regularly perch on a pole near the water. The view is ever changing and the activity of the waterway of the Tongass Narrows is very entertaining. The Captain's Suite has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It has a big deck that overlooks the ocean. This property is a duplex. The vacation rental that we call the "Captain's Suite" is the whole lower floor of the house. It has large decks and a beautiful grassy yard overlooking the ocean.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great Week in Ketchikan
Property was great. Saw eagles, deer, cruise ships, float planes and otters all right from the porch. Each BR having their own bath was awesome with 6 adults. Communication and support from owner were A

Amazing time in Ketchikan
Ketchikan is amazing place and our stay was incredible! The place is very large and you have three BR suites with full baths! You are right on the ocean and the views are absolutely breathtaking! We even saw whales passing right outside our place! Mary is the perfect host! There's so much to do in Ketchikan! You will not be disappointed.
