We had a very good time at the house. It was comfortable, very clean and had all the amenities we needed. We enjoyed the location a lot since it wasn't in a busy part of town but within 5 minutes of our whale watch and 15 minutes to downtown. I was not clear that it was a duplex but we didn't have any issue with outside noise. Very nicely kept.

Lovely place to stay

We enjoyed our stay at the Windfall home. Very nice decor in the home with thoughtfully included items to make our stay more comfortable. I especially liked the low/no fragrance soaps and lotions provided as I am sensitive to fragrance. Their dog are adorable. And the next time we return to Juneau we'll definitely think about staying here.

Great hosts and comfortable rental

This is a very comfortable, clean rental. The living room, kitchen, and dining areas were spacious. Master bedroom was quite large with a walk-in closet and master bath. It was great that all three bedrooms had queen size beds and the beds were comfortable. Felt like a home and not a rental which was great for our extended stay. Neighborhood is quiet, There is great access to the main road system. Hosts responded quickly to all requests and/or questions. I highly recommend this place and definitely would stay here again!

Amazing Amazing Amazing!!!!

The Windfall was AMAZING! The house was clean, cozy and in a great central location. The kitchen was well organized and stocked with everything you would need to cook a yummy meal. The beds were cozy and the fans in the rooms made it nice on the random warm nights. The hosts were very responsive and so helpful and friendly when needed. I appreciated the cleaning supplies, vacuum, mop and drying rack...things you don't normally see in a rental but made our stay 100% better-you get dirty in Alaska :) I would not hesitate to stay here again!

The location was great close to Auke Bay and the Glacier. The house was beautifully decorated and well-stocked. The hosts were friendly, helpful and communicative. Would definitely stay there again. My daughter was thrilled there was a Nespresso machine!

Excellent 5-Star Rental

Beautiful, spacious, comfortable, and sparkling clean. Everything we needed and very nice and new. Well-equipped kitchen with great appliances, dishes, and cookware. The spacious, open-concept kitchen-dining area-great room is the perfect space for gathering for meals, conversation, and games. Furniture throughout the rental is comfortable and new. Bedrooms are also spacious with comfy beds and linens. Although we didn’t use it, the convenient laundry area is a great amenity for longer stays or for those that include the Juneau area as one of their stops during an Alaska vacation. The property includes a nice deck and private yard located at the end of the road in an attractive and quiet subdivision. Communication with Morgan was easy and always prompt.

Top notch

My family and I had an amazing time in Juneau. The house was everything we could have asked for while on vacation. The hosts were very informative and polite with us. They even showed us how to clean and cook fresh crab from the ocean! Thanks for the memories!

The duplex is clean, modern and in a great location. Auke Lake is beautiful and really enjoyed the trail nearby. Close to the harbor for great whale watching and close to Mendenhall Glacier.
