Spacious Sunrise studio is located above our garage, providing an elevated view of surroundings from an abundance of windows that let in both the beauty and the light. The mountain and water views allow guests to enjoy the gorgeous wilds of Alaska from their own cozy haven decorated in warm hues of a sunrise. The queen-sized bed is a comfortable sleeping space for a couple, while the double sofa-sleeper provides additional sleeping space for children.
The rental is located right on historic Treadwell townsite, where guests can enjoy lazy walks through the forested trails that were once the streets of a booming gold mining town. Peppered with historic buildings, informative signs, and relics from times long past, the trails wind past babbling brooks out to Juneau’s best beach where views of Gastineau channel are made all the more beautiful by a backdrop of precipitous waterfalls cascading down to the shore. Sandy Beach Playground is a short jaunt further down the beach or trails. And for those wanting to gain some elevation on a longer hiking adventure, Mount Jumbo trailhead is just a five-minute walk around the corner.
When hungry, guests will enjoy the ease of preparing food in the fully equipped kitchen or on the bbq, or may instead choose to take a short scenic walk to the Douglas café or Island Pub, where they make amazing pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven. Other dining options, shopping and adventure also await in downtown Juneau, which is just a 10 minute drive in a private vehicle. You can also enjoy the convenience of public transportation to reach Juneau, with buses running every 30 minutes from the stop located just a block away.
We have strong unlimited internet, so you should have no problems connecting for telework or to share your adventures with friends and family. Other amenities that will make a stay more comfortable include a flat screen tv equipped with Roku for movies and entertainment, a washer and dryer, and private off-street parking. Because the unit is on the second floor, it must be accessed by stairs, and so it not a good fit for anyone with mobility issues.
Sorry, no pets or smoking inside the apartment or on the grounds.
Note: Our family of four lives in the log home adjacent to the rental. Although we are very respectful of our visitors with regard to noise, a bit of mild family sounds should be expected here and there during normal waking hours (7a-10p), such as our kids and friends and/or our bernedoodle pup romping around the property. Most of the time our location is very serene. Please feel free to inquire if any questions!
