Nestled among towering Sitka spruce and western hemlock, this peaceful Juneau retreat offers a true Alaskan escape where nature takes center stage. Set on a secluded three-quarter-acre wooded property, the home provides a tranquil setting just minutes from some of Juneau's most celebrated outdoor attractions. Whether exploring nearby glaciers, hiking rainforest trails, or simply enjoying the quiet surroundings, guests will find the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.

Inside, the spacious home welcomes families and groups with warm, comfortable living areas and a fully equipped kitchen designed for gathering after days spent outdoors. Prepare freshly caught local seafood, enjoy meals together around the dining table, or relax in the inviting living spaces while planning the next day's adventure. Large windows frame the surrounding forest, creating a constant connection to the natural beauty outside.

Accommodating guests across four comfortable bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, the home is thoughtfully suited for families, friends, and extended stays. Outside, guests can unwind in the shared hot tub or gather around the fire pit beneath Alaska's towering evergreens after a day of hiking, whale watching, or glacier excursions. Please note that a separate two-bedroom vacation rental is located on the property, and when occupied, the hot tub and fire pit are shared between both accommodations. The home itself, along with its private yard and indoor living spaces, is reserved exclusively for your group.

Perfectly positioned between nature and convenience, the property is just ten minutes from the iconic Mendenhall Glacier and only three minutes from the Alaska State Ferry Terminal in Auke Bay. Nearby beaches, scenic hiking trails, and abundant wildlife make it easy to experience Juneau's remarkable landscape, while longtime local hosts are happy to share recommendations for hidden trails, quiet coves, and memorable experiences beyond the typical visitor route.
