Alaska Guardhouse: Wonderful home base in Haines
Posted: Jun 26, 2025 |
Our family of 5 stayed at the Guardhouse while exploring Haines. Joanne and Phyllis were warm and welcoming hosts and we found the home to be comfortable and spacious. It's a great location, with a beautiful yard, gorgeous views, and the parade grounds provided room for the kids to run. Our hosts were kind enough to coordinate transportation to and from the ferry terminal, which made out trip easy. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Chilkat Towers: Could not have been better.
Posted: Jun 24, 2025 |
A group of us came from NH and rented all 3 Chilkat Tower units before my sons wedding. Each party was very happy. The units came with everything you could want. Lots of toiletries, towels, coffee, tea, spices, oil, etc. It was updated and sparkling clean. We were walking distance to everything downtown including the waterfront. Exceptional views from our unit. We enjoyed Skagway, the train and the zip line. Took the slow ferry from Juneau and had several whale and sea lion sightings. Took a seaplane back and that offered spectacular views as well. Thanks Randa for a wonderful and comfortable stay.

Chilkoot Haven: Great Comfortable Stay, with an Amazing View
Posted: Jun 17, 2025 |
We were traveling by the Alaska Marine Highway and had a one night stay in Haines. It was a little early in the season for the salmon run, and bears but our 13 year old son caught a nice Dolly Varden. Room had an amazing view, comfortable beds, heated floors. We didn't have a car which was not too bad. Haines has one person on Uber as well as a shuttle taxi service. You probably want to have a plan ahead of time if you don't have a car.

The View at Oceanside
Posted: Jun 8, 2025 |
The View at Oceanside #2 is the perfect place to take a break, close the door and enjoy the unobstructed bird’s eye views of the waterfront. The clouds were scudding north, and the ships were sailing south. The biggest decisions were which window to look out of and which chair to enjoy it from. There are so many nice touches, a rain shower, yoga mat, coat rack in the bedroom, and a mudroom space for wet raingear. It was so quiet and peaceful I hardly wanted to go back out of the door even though the town is just steps away.
Thank you.

Our stay at Lone Eagle in Haines, Alaska, was nothing short of amazing.

The Aerie was perfect in every way! It is lovely inside and well supplied with everything we could have possibly needed - especially the kitchen. The views from the living spaces were absolutely magnificent. It's close proximity to town was helpful too. Overall, it was perfect for our family's needs.
While I did not personally meet the homeowners, other family members did and were impressed by their friendliness and willingness to help in any way needed.
Randa was wonderful to work with, even including discounts I was not aware we were eligible for!
I hope we are able to return to Haines and will definitely stay in the Aerie if it is available!

The View at Oceanside 2: That View 👌
Posted: Nov 12, 2024 |
Amazing place with an even better view. Nice large living area with high ceilings and windows all around with an unobstructed view of the mountains and ocean. Right in town and walking distance from shops and restaurants.
A couple small things that stopped my rating 5 stars. The bathtub stopper didn't work, the ladder is to the loft is too steep with small metals rungs the hurt to climb up and there was no spatula in the kitchen.
That said, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again

View at Oceanside #1: Excellent accommodation! Even better views!!
Posted: Oct 28, 2024 |
Stayed with a friend in this condo for two nights at the end of October. Would stay in this unit again. Large unit, well equipped kitchen, nice living room area, huge dining room table, modern bathroom.
Sleeping involves a very nice bedroom with a queen bed, and a loft. I was in the loft. You need the right combination of people for the loft. It contains two comfortable twin beds and separate firm pillows for additional sleeping if guests bring sleeping bags. The loft is open to sound from below. Two couples might find it difficult as loft couple will be woken to movement in the area below. Ceilings are low near the beds. Would be a perfect set up for a family with primary or secondary school aged children. The loft is very secure so no risk of children falling.
The highlight is the wrap around windows!! Gorgeous view. Can see ocean, mountains, harbour from two sides, no buildings between condo and ocean.

The Cottage - a very nice and cosy place. Everything you need you find in beautiful rooms. The sights of mountains and sea is unbeatable ! While siiting on the sundeck you get the strong feeling of beautiful holidays. Unfortunately, in these times you have to share the garden with bears in the night.

Chilkoot Haven: Location, location, location!
Posted: Sep 9, 2024 |
We stayed 2 nights in room 1 at this lodge and it was fantastic in every way. The room was large, with 2 queen beds, and spotlessly clean. There was a small kitchenette that had sufficient equipment to prepare and eat meals. In fact we ate all of our meals there the whole time we were there. The shared barbecue was great.
There is a balcony that runs along the front of the 3 rooms. The view from the balcony was simply spectacular. We looked directly onto the Chilcoot River. We chose the time of our visit to maximise our chances of seeing bears (knowing that the bears are wild animals and may or may not be there) and we were very lucky to see a number of bears.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if we are ever lucky enough to return to Alaska.

Always love coming to this lodge during bear season. Sue the owner keeps everything in PRISTINE condition. This year, I was treated to nine brown bears, and a mama moose with two calves! The hot tub was to die for. Neighbors were a little noisy and chatty right outside my window but that's outside management's control. I will definitely be back.

Stayed here for two nights in early August 2024. Very clean, excellent WiFi, easiest check-in ever.
We came here to see bears in the river eating salmon and this was the perfect spot. There are three rooms here and they share a long covered patio that has amazing views along the entire way. Perfect view of the fishing weir where the bears fish. Loved sitting out on the patio, listening to the river and enjoying the views. Would love to come back again!

Good parking, nice and clean, can walk to most places in town...this place was referred to me and was not disappointed, Would have been nice to have a propane bbq...does the person that referred me get a discount on his next stay as he is planning another Haines trip?

Blue Heron House Amazing!
Posted: Jul 22, 2024 |
We stayed at the Blue Heron House for 5 days in June '24 while in town for a family wedding. This beautiful house provided ample space for our family of 5, including 3 teenagers. We also had room, with advanced permission, to have the other 10 members of our extended family over for dinner with room to spare. The view from the deck in breathtaking and the fire pit was a huge hit! We spent most nights outside until midnight. The kitchen is a wow with everything we could have needed to cook big meals - including making 4 cakes last minute for the wedding! Extra touches like board games, a small toy box, and our favorite - morning visits on the deck from Denali and McKinley (the dogs) - were fun bonuses. Convenient location to town so that our kids could walk back if they chose (extended family stayed in Chikat Towers - also wonderful!). We're so glad we chose to stay at Blue Heron House and will gladly return!!

Chilkat Towers
Posted: Jul 22, 2024 |
Chilkat Tower was a fantastic condo!! My extended family (4 families) stayed in Haines for 5 days for our sister's wedding. We rented all 3 levels (condos) in Chilkat Towers, in addition to the Blue Heron House, and were extremely pleased. The condos were beautiful - spacious, relaxing and so clean. Convenient to town but still quiet. Kitchens were nicely stocked with dishes/cookware etc and we loved the fresh ground coffee. Loved the bathrooms and especially the tubs for relaxing and cleaning up the little ones. It was so nice to let each family have their own space and yet still be close to each other. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!!

We were just able to stay one night in the lovely Chilkat towers, but will eagerly return in the future! Such a beautiful space and so roomy! Everything listed was perfectly accurate and they provide everything necessary for an effortless visit. We can’t wait to return and have a longer stay, Haines is a beautiful town and the Chilkat Towers is right in the heart of it so exploring by foot, bike or car is so easy.

Bears, fishing, tranquility
Posted: Jul 21, 2024 |
Chilkoot Haven is THE place to stay in Haines if you want to be right on the river for fishing or bear watching. We booked through AirBnB and Randa was super quick to reply to any reservation enquiries or general questions about either the property or the area.
The property itself has amazing views and is perched on a hill overlooking the river. There are 3 rooms available, each with 2 queen beds, ensuite bathroom and small kitchenette with coffe maker, toaster, microwave and small fridge.
There is an outdoor gazebo with a BBQ and side burner for cooking up a storm, and a hot tub for relaxing in at the end of a long day. This area is shared by all guests.
I would highly recommend contacting Randa if you are interested in booking this property as she was very helpful and her service was 5 star

Perfect place to stay!
Posted: Jul 20, 2024 |
The Guardhouse is a beautiful home and our room was perfect for our family of four. We enjoyed both the front and back porches on a daily basis, as well as the endless coffee. Conveniently located to town as well as the docks so booking a tour or hike was easy. The best part of our stay was the hosts! They were incredibly friendly and welcoming and would highly recommend staying there!

Thank you for the incredible stay. The views have been surreal. We have loved watching the cruise ships stroll past and listening to the calmness of the canal. The bikes truly are such a blessing.

Snappers Inn was perfect for our stay. The view from the living room window and deck are Awesome---although the property across the street does have equipment in the view---not a deal breaker though. The beds were a little hard. Easy walk to town. Rate a 4 plus for sure. Owner very friendly. A barbecue would have been nice to cook the fresh fish we purchased in town. Love Haines we will be back to explore up into Canada.

Chilkat Tower 3

We went to Haines as part of a Yukon / SE Alaska trip for my 50th birthday. I grew up in the Yukon and had so many memories of Haines that I wanted to visit again. Randa's communication was excellent and our place in Chilkat tower was amazing! The furnishings were very stylish and the bed was super comfortable. It has everything a person needs for a memorable stay. I can't imaging that there's a better place to stay in Haines. My only regret is that we couldn't stay longer! I would highly recommend staying here!

Alaska Guardhouse: Excellent B&B
Posted: Jun 26, 2024 |
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners were friendly and enjoyed chatting with us and provided us with much insight to life in Alaska. It is obvious they enjoy hosting guests in their home.
They share much of their space with guests and it truly makes one feel at home. The kitchen is fully equipped and clean.
The room was quite big (room 2) but we also saw the room across the hall which was even bigger. They are super clean and have nice views. Our room may have had the better view because you could see the ocean canal.
I would not hesitate to recommend their home to anyone, except the disabled as there are quite a few stairs to enter.
We truly loved our stay

We were so pleased with our stay at Chilkoot Haven. We loved having our morning coffee on the patio overlooking the river. The view was just gorgeous! We had everything we needed in the room, lots of towels, cutlery and kitchen amenities for eating prepared food, and very quiet. The bugs are bad though! But we already knew that having camped in the area previously. Will hopefully stay here again!

We had a lovely time at the Ripinski retreat. The house was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 2 children.

Not to mention the beautiful views from the living and dining rooms!

Our large family group stayed in Blue Heron for a week as we gathered for a wedding. It suited our needs really well, as there were three bedrooms and baths, a roomy living room with comfortable seating, a large dining table that seats eight, and a kitchen that allowed us to cook meals for our group. The views of the water and mountains from the house are wonderful. It's a short walk from town, so very conveniently located. Should we have a family reunion at some point, we would love to stay here again.

Chilkoot Haven: Comfortable Room
Posted: Dec 13, 2023 |
This was an excellent location for us as we had a vehicle - it is a bit out of town, so a vehicle is necessary. The room was large, 2 queen beds, comfortable. The sliding doors open onto a back terace with absolutely amazing views of the river activity below. Our host was lovely. Hot tub was up and running, bit of a sulfur odour that dissipated quickly with the addition of some chemical within handy reach. We did not cook in, but there was basic self-sufficiency equipment. Would absolutely book again if ever back to Haines.

The Cottage was a great weekend getaway accommodation. Ideally located close to downtown Haines and on a side street provides privacy and security for yourself and your belongings. I plan on staying again next year for another late season fishing adventure.
A bbq on the deck would be appreciated for cooking meals or at least a table so I can use my potable bbq next year instead of cooking off the deck. The kitchen also did not have any tea towels to dry the dishes so we used lots of paper towels. Something to consider for next guests. Thank you for our stay and look forward to booking with you again in (2024) which will be I think our 4th or 5th booking using your site!

A friend and I enjoyed our stay in Oceanside #1. Wonderful view. Comfortable downstairs area with helpful area for shoes and coats. The loft was good with nice seating and comfortable twin beds but the fluorescent lights attached to the low beams meant I hit my head more times than I want to admit. Also, there are no lamps by the beds so you need to walk over to the stairway to turn off the very bright overhead lights then remember the beam when you walk back to bed. Also no night lights to get down the steep stairs to the bathroom for those of us who need that at night so I used a flashlight. Seems like fairly easy fixes and only needed when someone stays in the loft.

We had a lovely stay in Haines. It was a vacation / work trip on my part and full vacation on my family's. The view is beautiful from the deck and south facing windows when the weather cooperates. The rental itself was all we needed. The large mud room / laundry room was very much welcome for hanging up rain gear to dry. The host at the very beginning of the reservation was always reaching out asking if we needed anything during our visit to Haines. Highly recommended.

Chilkoot Haven: Bucket List - Overnight stay on the bluff overlooking the river
Posted: Sep 19, 2023 |
We were so fortunate to book this room overlooking the river. A really comfortable room with a home feeling. Very clean, great coffee in the morning with a choice of various teas, and the beds were soooooh comfortable!
We booked the room last minute, so we did not know what to expect! To our surprised we arrived @ 16:43 when the mama bear and her two cubs had just ventured to the river for their evening meal. We witness the same ritual the next morning @ 08:30. The male bear was on the other side of the river a little earlier ~08:00.
This stay was highly recommended by a repeating customer! This is an amazing experience and should be added to your bucket list. I live on the Seacoast of NH, USA and was raised in Northern Quebec, Canada. I have seen many places that haven't been altered by humans. The view and sounds of the river and mountain range will forever be engrained in my memory.

The most magnificent view I've ever seen. Quiet, clean, and serene. I had absolutely everything I could want or need. I hope this perfect spot on earth stays just the way it is, as I plan to return again and again.

2023 stay at Alaska Guardhouse
Posted: Sep 9, 2023 |
The accommodations were absolutely perfect for visit to Haines. The house is just two blocks from our friend's that we were visiting. The room was spacious with a roomy bathroom. The hostesses (and sweet dog, Finn) were gracious and welcoming. Coffee and a visit each morning started the days off right. Highly recommend the Guardhouse!

Chilkoot Haven: Glad to return...
Posted: Sep 6, 2023 |
Although we are regulars, we had not been back since a year prior to COVID. We missed being there, and we were glad to see nothing has changed in a negative way. The room was clean and well looked after. We usually spend roughly two weeks annually there and are happy the Lodge is still as we remembered it. Will we come back? Definitely. The room is great, the view spectacular, and we made new friends while there. What more could you ask for??

Chilkat Tower 3: Enjoyable stay in Haines
Posted: Sep 5, 2023 |
We were very pleased with our recent stay at Chilkat Tower #3. The location is ideal if you want to explore the town, as everything is within walking distance. The property itself was very clean and included the expected amenities (and more). Parking and access was super easy, and everything that we needed to know was communicated up front. Would stay again!

Chilkoot Haven: A wonderful place to stay!
Posted: Sep 5, 2023 |
We loved our time at the Chilkoot Haven!
The room was great and we spent most of our days viewing wildlife in and around the Chilkoot River from our room or from a short walk from our room.

Chilkat Tower 2
Posted: Aug 31, 2023 |
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location is great and the condo was very comfortable. It had everything we needed and more!
The only thing that I would change if I could would be the sound level from the condo above and below. The neighbours weren't purposely being noisy but you can hear everything that goes on above and below (and I'm sure they can hear us).
Thanks for everything!

Snappers Inn: Best ever!
Posted: Aug 28, 2023 |
Snappers inn was one of our favorite stays in our 4 week Alaska travels. Randa was easy to communicate with and always got back in a timely manner. She provided useful information about the town and area and was flexible with check in and out times.
The cottage was perfect for us; a large open kitchen/dining, living area with a big window looking out on the water and the mountains. There is a front porch with seats, where you can enjoy the incredible view and have dinner!
Snappers Inn has everything you will need for your stay. They provide coffee, teas, hot chocolate mix, spices, oil, gril, charcoal, napkins, foil, even washer detergent.
The location was perfect for us. It was a quick walk to the town's shops and restaurants and short drives to hikes and sightseeing in the area.
I highly recommend staying at Snappers Inn when you visit Haines, Alaska!

What a spectacular place! The kitchen and deck with a panorama view are amazing. The place is so lovingly put together and the host thought about absolutely everything. You suddenly have the urge to bake bread? The bread machine is right there with bread flour next to it. You forgot toys for the dogs? There is a basket with everything your pet could desire. We felt very much at home. It was hard to leave but we will definitely be back. Thank you very much!

Snappers Inn: Three Weeks in Haines
Posted: Aug 26, 2023 |
In 2019 we traveled by Motorhome from CA to Alaska for 3 months, we loved the town of Haines and decided to return. We spent three weeks at Snappers Inn. We loved our stay here, it was as if we were at home. The Cottage had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen worked out perfectly for cooking meals. The living room and bathroom were more than adequate. We enjoyed having Netflix and movies available. Read one of the books from the bookcase. Spent afternoons on the deck (weather permitting) taking in the scenery with a cocktail. Eating at the dining table with the view was mesmerizing. We used the bikes daily to get around, otherwise walked. We used Randa's 10% discount on an excursion (Jet boating up the Chilkat); hiked Battery Point and Mt. Riley from Battery Point. My husband fished at Chilkoot and caught us beautiful salmon for 13 meals! The Grocery Stores were good! Ate at most the Restaurants. Visited Skagway. Would definitely rent from Randa again!

Had the most glorious stay in Haines, our accomodation was a perfectly situated 2 bedroom top floor apartment, with breathtaking views from every corner. Everything we required was at our disposal, a great kitchen, large living area and comfortable beds. Situated in the heart of town made groceries and coffee shopping easy! Randa was a perfect host and nothing was too much trouble. What a piece of paradise we enjoyed !

Chilkoot Haven: The best place ever!
Posted: Aug 11, 2023 |
This little lodge is probably my favorite place I've ever stayed, and we've traveled the world. Not only are the rooms comfortable and furnished with every amenity, there is a large deck, a hot tub, a barbeque - what more could you ask for? The view, you say? This is the ONLY dwelling that looks right down on the Chilkoot River, where we watched bears fishing right in front of our eyes. It was an amazing experience that we will treasure all our lives.
|

The Cottage: Amazing cozy little cottage
Posted: Aug 11, 2023 |
We spent 3 days at the cottage and we had an amazing time. The house has a great, cozy, super clean and had comfortable feel that blends with the Haines vibe. Right in the middle of the action, but very private at the same time with an amazing view on the ocean, hence a perfect location. Haines is a great little town with friendly people. We fished for salmon on the Chilkoot River ( 10 min drive) and was incredible. Over all, highly recommend this house and will be back some day for sure.
|
 |
The Cottage: Great View
Posted: Aug 9, 2023 |
The Owners were super easy to communicate with and very helpful. The view off the porch is great and the location made it easy to get to everything in town. Everything was clean and worked properly and we had no problems with the TV or heater or anything else. Really a good deal and staying here contributed to our enjoying the 5 night stay in Haines very much. One possible suggestion - the kitchen could use a larger pot for making spaghetti (otherwise we had everything we needed for cooking!)

Hands down the best place we ever stayed. Perfect location with mountain views. We enjoyed sitting on the deck having coffee every morning and ending our evenings with a glass on wine. Close access to shopping. Chilkat 3 had every amenity possible and we loved the bread machine...making 3 loaves during the stay. Very comfortable accommodations. I will definitely book again if I return to Haines.

Chilkat Tower 1: Perfect for my small family
Posted: Aug 1, 2023 |
Very clean, my wife commented on the tasteful decorating, very convenient location, windows for the amazing Haines views I've grown to expect (likely even better on the upper units). Large enough that the kids could hang out in the living room or run around in the yard. Amenities were great, beds were great, fans kept the unit nice even though it was quite hot. Can't say enough good things. Will be my first choice visiting Haines from now on.

This space was amazing to stay at, very open and easy space to accommodate people! There is parking on site and we were even allowed a late check out.

I could have sat in the living room or on the porch scoping for whales, dolphins, hummingbirds or passing cruise ships our entire trip, but im glad we got out + made quite a few visits to Chilkoot lake, just down the road. This place is a piece of craftmanship, immaculate and so well designed, attention to every detail. Randa made booking a breeze, gave me lots of helpful local tips! And Clara was so welcoming and generous with a bottle of wine to celebrate our wedding anniversary. She even let me borrow a kayak and a book! True Alaskan hospitality all around.

This is a very nice property that is nicely decorated, spacious and has a great view. We visited Haines with friends from New Zealand and were very pleased to be able to stay in a property where we could have a glass of wine together after supper and visit. The check-in/check-out was easy and convenient. You won’t be disappointed if you stay. We wish we had a bit longer and will plan to come back. Thanks.

The view overlooking the bay is breathtaking. You can sit in the living room and not feel like you are missing any of the Alaska beauty. Kitchen is well appointed with all the basic necessary cooking implements. Thoughtful touches throughout. The only thing I would say is that the ladder to the loft for sleeping is a little steep and treacherous for young children, so I would recommend kids 8-10+ for up there.

Chilkoot Haven: Beautiful location
Posted: Jul 7, 2023 |
We stayed here for a one night in Haines and weren’t sure what to expect. Our stay was better than we could have hoped for. The location is absolutely beautiful overlooking the chillkoot river with a patio that has a small table and chairs for each room so you can sit overlooking the river. There is also a lovely area with a bbq, picnic table and hot tub. Everything was clean including the room and the picnic area. The hosts had anticipated everything we might need to use the bbq and picnic area such as dishes and cutlery as well as towels and shoes to wear to the hot tub. Our only disappointment was that we were only staying one night - we would have loved to stay longer. A great stay and we would love to return some day.

This is a wonderful place to stay in Haines. It is located right on the water and extremely handy to downtown - it is fun to walk out the door and explore. On a rainy day you can be cozy and watch the ships come and go from your window. We didn't eat out anywhere because the view could not be beat! Randa also accommodated early check ins!
The only thing that was missing was dish cloths in the kitchen and we had to go on a hunt to find the bed linens for the mattresses in the loft (under the bed in the drawers). Otherwise it was very well equipped with everything we needed.

Chilkoot Haven Great place, best in haines
Posted: Jun 27, 2023 |
This cabin/room came with all the utensils you needed to cook your own meals on an outside high quality grill or use their microwave. Came with coffee maker and a bunch of teas. We did the fly fishing (w/fly guides) and caught our Dolly Vardons and ate them fresh afterward for two nights. Btw: if you like to cook or grill, we really enjoyed swapping restaurants for home cooked options, and cut our daily food bill down by 70%. This saving paid for our rental car, which is a must if you stay outside the town. We loved the hottub after fly fishing, and just enjoyed it after being on a ferry for 5 hours. We also slept great and enjoyed the resident eagles. No bears till the salmon really run in July. Didn’t matter

Sue, at Chilkoot Haven, is exceptionally experienced at providing an experience where nothing has escaped her attention. The beds are super comfy, the bathroom has everything a road traveler would want (in duplicate), there is coffee for a full pot, there’s a hot tub, a small kitchen and all of this overlooks the most beautiful and peaceful river you can imagine. I’m not sure about Sue’s prior life but today she is able to intuit what information you might want (in advance) and provide the type of platinum service that is rarely found. I am so grateful we found this sanctuary. I highly recommend it!!!

Walking distance to restaurants, breweries, stores. Will definitely stay here again when we return to Haines!!!

Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Jun 10, 2023 |
This was our last stop on our return leg back to Juneau after a fun motorcycle road trip up to Anchorage. We loved the privacy of location, the gazebo with grill, and thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub! We brought steaks and corn and grilled it up. Used the side burner to make breakfast in the morning. The heated floors in the room were awesome especially for that Alaskan living coming in from the outside being chilly and wet. Indoor house slippers provided was a bonus. Kitchenette with fridge all perfectly appointed. Beds were super comfy. Views to die for. No other entertainment needed. Thank you. We will be staying again!

Alaska Guardhouse: The BEST Hosts!
Posted: Jun 6, 2023 |
The accommodations at the Guardhouse are clean and easy to get to and the location is perfect for walking anywhere in town. But what really makes this stay are the hosts. The are respectful of your privacy but warm and friendly and inviting when engaged. During my 4-day/3 night stay they picked me up and dropped me off at the airport, lent me binoculars for my eagle viewing excursion, made Rhubarb rolls, and took me to meet the author of a book I read about Haines so I could get a signed copy. It was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

Blue Heron: Wonderful, restful, beautiful, comfortable
Posted: Jun 5, 2023 |
Blue Heron House is absolutely delightful! Filled with fabulous Alaskan art, a full kitchen, extremely comfortable beds, walking distance to town and the tidepools for kids to explore. Our absolutely favorite part is the reading room with its windows, big overstuffed comfy chairs, books, plants, and toys. Had to be pried out of it.
Highly recommend this exceptional place to stay in Haines.

The Cottage
Posted: Jun 3, 2023 |
We stayed here over a holiday weekend and while the weather was not always cooperative, we still had time to enjoy the deck and beautiful views that this rental cottage has to offer. It’s very comfortably sized and has the basic essentials to get you through a short stay. Communication with the property manager was always prompt. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to another one in the future!

View at Oceanside: Very modern and comfortable
Posted: Jun 2, 2023 |
We stayed in the Oceanside apartment #2 and it was beautifully modern, comfortable and the location was stunning!
The apartment has everything you need and the convenience of a keyless entry (no potential for lost keys or not enough keys for everyone).
The windows are enormous, so you get a stunning view of the ocean front and mountains.
Thank you for another great location to start at during our time in Haines.

What an amazing perfect stay on all fronts; super clean spacious quiet room with very comfortable beds/pillows, excellent location with views of the harbor and mountains from our beds, easy walking distance to town, harbor, restaurants, close to bike rentals, great homemade treats, but most of all Phyllis and Joanne were absolutely wonderful gracious hosts. They made our whole trip so much better, No need for us to ever look elsewhere for lodging. Thank you for a truly wonderful stay!

Alaska Guardhouse: A great place to stay
Posted: May 30, 2023 |
I spent two days at the Guard House while transitioning to Haines and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The house is well appointed and rooms were just exquisite. It lies within the Ft. Seward complex which is right off the Lynn Canal and has awesome views of both the harbor and water. Phyllis and Joann were awesome hosts, they were very warm and welcoming and I felt very at home. I would definitely recommend a stay at the Guard House when visiting Haines.

Blue Heron: Lovely Family Home
Posted: May 29, 2023 |
Blue Heron is a very comfortable home with amazing views. My family of 5 had a great time gathering in living room to share meals and stories. Kitchen is well stocked to make meals. Lots of board games and books available to use. The home is close to town easily walkable to main street. The home is on a large lot so there was no noise from neighbours. Well worth the value. The host is very welcoming and responded quickly to questions. Would stay there again.

Home away from home

We had an incredible stay at the Blue Heron House. There were three generations of us on this trip~ grandpa, my husband and I and our 2 boys (7 and 3). We all thoroughly enjoyed the views, comfort, and conveniences of the home. The bald Eagle watching from the back deck was top notch.
I would highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting Haines.

We had a marvelous time at The View at Oceanside.

We felt very much at home, and it was great that we could have our dog with us on vacation. When the clouds finally lifted, the view from the living/dining room was amazing! The kitchen was well-stocked, and the house was very warm and cozy - we will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Oceanside #1. The view was to die for, and the entire rental was beautifully appointed and SO clean. The open concept floor plan made it easy to visit and enjoy time together while cooking, playing games, or just hanging out. The extra space in the loft was perfect for reading and naps, too. Great variety of board games and puzzles, and the location provides easy access to shops, library, coffee shop, grocery stores, and the harbor docks. Highly recommend this rental for anyone visiting Haines!

Chilkat Tower #3 has all the comforts of home with so many classy touches. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need for a meal cook up or just to heat and go. There are books, games and fabulous blankets to snuggle under. The place is warm, well-lit and inviting. Build some time to lounge into your stay. The location is situated beside the divine Haines Brewery, an amazing wood fired pizza joint and three grocery stores. #3 is pet friendly and you'll get your steps in as the stairs are yup, three flights up. You can do it! The view is worth it. Thank you for a great stay, Randa.

View at Oceanside 2: Beautiful place
Posted: Oct 10, 2022 |
My friend and I spent a girls weekend at the View at Oceanside #2 (We are both from Whitehorse). We really enjoyed the unit we stayed in. The views are unbeatable and we loved watching the fog roll in and out and the fishing boats floating by. We planned on using the small loft for one of us to sleep in but realized it would be quite a challenge to get down the ladder in the middle of the night if required so we ended up just sharing the bed. We loved the furniture and both wished we could have the couch in our own homes! A couple small things we noticed was that the unit is not very sound proof and we also had to go out and buy ground coffee in order to use the coffee maker. We left the rest of the coffee for the next people though. :)
Thanks very much for the lovely relaxing days.

This is my second stay at Chilkoot Haven , in room 3 again.
I saw bears in the river the last time (Summer), and this time was just the amazingly same. Also saw lots of bald eagles and other bird life in the river below, this time. ( In the Fall)
Facilities are clean, lots of towels, super lovely bedding.
A kitchenette with microwave; small fridge; toaster; kettle (yay) and coffee maker.
Internet was slow to non existent, and I don’t stream. Just needed to check email and read some articles. Being so far out of town, this needs to be improved. I had to go to the library to complete the ArriveCan forms as I was going to Canada after.
If I return to Haines, I’d definitely book here again.

Easy making reservations through Randa. She helped me a lot with some changes I had to make. My family and I loved everything about it it…We plan to go back in 2 years…I can’t explain gust how beautiful it is…Thanks to all the folks at Chilkoot Haven for making our family vacation so memorable…(this was our second time visiting Chilkoot Haven)

Chilkoot Haven Vacation
Posted: Sep 12, 2022 |
A must for all nature photographer and nature lover.
You can watch bears, eagles, and in a short distance seals.
You can hear the call of the eagles early in the morning and sometimes the call of angry bears in the night. That is a very nice experiance.
The lodge has only three rooms. The rooms are nicely done with all fittings and clean.
I think, Chilkoot Haven is one of the best locations in Alaska.

The Attic: Haines Charm
Posted: Sep 9, 2022 |
“The Attic” is in the perfect location in Haines for getting your morning coffee, visiting the library, walking to the charming harbour and getting groceries.
There are big windows that let in so much light and a balcony for outside time. The kitchen is well equipped with lots of “stuff” for cooking. The second bedroom is tiny, as advertised - you can’t pull out the trundle bed and close the door, so one of our foursome slept in the living room. We will definitely book here again if our journeys bring us back to Haines.

We adored our stay at Chilkoot Haven and could not recommend it more highly. The room was very clean and comfortable and had all that we needed. The best part of this place though is it’s location and spectacular view of the river and surrounding mountains. An unparalleled spot for wildlife watching! I sincerely hope to return one day, thank you for having us!

View at Oceanside: Second time in Haines
Posted: Aug 29, 2022 |
Second time booking with Randa. Last time at The Cottage which was nice but the Oceanside #1 was great. Enjoyed all new place with very large windows to enjoy the great view right on the water. Convenient to use laundry downstairs. Can walk anywhere in town. Highly recommend

Chilkoot Haven: Amazing!
Posted: Aug 26, 2022 |
When we walked in the room we both ran to the window and said wow! The view of the river and the mountains is breathtaking. It was relaxing to listen to the sound of the river. We enjoyed watching bears and eagles from our patio as we drank coffee each morning and evening. We loved every minute of staying in this beautiful place. The location is the best! Room was comfortable and we appreciated all the little extras. We used the grill several times for meals. Randa was great to work with and communication was perfect. We also enjoyed visiting with Sue too. We plan on coming back next year.

Chilkat Tower: Great space
Posted: Aug 25, 2022 |
The location of chilkat towers is convenient for walking around Haines and exploring. We loved that we could buy fresh seafood and use our kitchen to cook up some meals throughout our trip. The view of the mountains from the bedroom is beautiful and there’s plenty of parking space. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook for ourselves. Would stay here again!

Terri is so nice, we had a great time. The kitchen was very nice, well stocked. The views were amazing, we really appreciated the spices that were available, the firepit was used a lot and the firewood was abundant which made for good memories, and the amount of towels was appreciated as well. Thank you!!

The Attic - Haines
Posted: Aug 20, 2022 |
Great location! Really nothing to complain about except a larger fridge would have been handy as we cook a lot of our own meals, so we buy groceries/alcohol at the local stores. There is a nice large bathroom in the apartment - so plenty of room for toiletries. Anyone with mobility issues should not book The Attic as there is a full flight of stairs.

Picture Point Seaside: Fantastic getaway
Posted: Aug 20, 2022 |
We celebrated our 25th anniversary in Haines, and this is the best place to stay! It is cozy, well-maintained, and everything was up-to-date. We enjoyed just sitting in the main room relaxing and the view is amazing. I can't imagine coming back and staying anywhere else.

The Cottage: Love this little cottage
Posted: Aug 19, 2022 |
This is our second time here, which speaks for itself as to how much we enjoy staying here. It is always clean and has everything we need, not to mention the fabulous view. The cottage is within walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores and the road it's on leads to the beautiful Chilkoot Park and river. Lots of bird conversations going on nearby, eagles everywhere and, of course, we enjoyed the bear activity along the river. I highly recommend staying here during your time in Haines.

Viking Cove - Moose
Posted: Aug 18, 2022 |
The Good
-Stunning property, quiet, secluded with amazing ocean, glacier and mountain views
-We saw tons of wildlife during our stay; Harbor Porpoises, Sea Otters, Salmon jumping and tons of birds
-Lots of activities available for guests (sauna, games room, make shift gym, canoes, crab pots, fire pit, axe throwing)
-Host was very friendly and accommodating. He showed us around the property and chatted with us about his boat building project and glass blowing studio.
The Not So Good:
- The online description of Moose should be updated. There is a small fridge, keurig and microwave which we were not aware of until arriving.
- There was also a BBQ that could be used by guests

Review for Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Aug 16, 2022 |
This is our second visit to Chilkoot Haven and it is amazing. We love the view and being able to see wildlife close from our patio. Sue is an great host and provides us with anything we need. We also rented a U-haul van in town for our travels and Patty was great in helping us with that. It worked out great. We found very few businesses open in Haines including restaurants. This was disappointing. Hopefully these businesses can survive after the pandemic. The restaurants that were open were very good. We highly recommend Chilkoot Haven.

Review of Alaska Guardhouse Accommodations
Posted: Aug 15, 2022 |
As Canadians, we were finally able to visit the United States again so we returned to one of our favourite Alaskan towns - Haines, Alaska. We stayed at the Alaska Guardhouse and were pleased to find the place as nice as it was four years ago when we last stayed there. The room (Room #2) we had was spotlessly clean, fresh smelling, nicely appointed and had wonderfully comfortable beds. The hostess was warm and welcoming and we felt totally at home and came and went as we pleased. The Guardhouse is located right in downtown Haines in a quiet location but close to everything. I especially appreciated that our room came with its own bathroom - no one had to experience the horror of seeing me at 5 am on the way to the bathroom in my pj’s!!!
I can recommend the Alaska Guardhouse without hesitation.

5 Stars (again) This was our second stay at Blue Heron in Haines and we enjoyed it more than ever! A wonderful relaxing modern home with everything you need to feel at home plus an incredible beach front view of mountains and the ocean will make you happy to just to unwind on the deck and breathe the fresh air. Convenient to local shops, the Fort and all of Main Street you will not believe the amazing scenery at every turn, and if you have a clear night star gazing around the fire pit is not to be missed! We love this place and can't wait to return!!

Viking Cove Chinook: Beautiful setting, nice accommodations.
Posted: Aug 8, 2022 |
We stayed at Viking Cove Chinook as a base of operations for work. The management squeezed us in on short notice and we were pleasantly surprised by the accommodations. The compound was beautifully set on a small private peninsula in the Lynn Canal. There were a number of nice amenities like a sauna, bonfire pit, and exercise room. The apartments were roomy and well kept. Unfortunately no stove, super small fridge, and 8 miles by narrow back road to town made meals a challenge. WiFi was pretty spotty, which made work tasks a bit difficult. But if you are looking for a quite, scenic place to duck out and relax, it’s definitely worth a stay.

I didn't fully know what I'd booked when we reserved a room here for three nights however my jaw hit the floor when we walked in and saw the view.

Our room was spotless, beds were comfortable, owner was fantastic and the hot tub was such a treat. 10/10 will stay again.

Chilkoot Haven: Magical Place

Chilkoot Haven is an experience not to be missed if visiting Haines, Alaska. The relaxing value is off the chart. Sit outside your door and just take in the beautiful surroundings with the constant motion of the river below.
Watch as fisherman try their luck at catching Sockeye or land some yourself just down the steps from the resort. Breath taking.

We stayed at the Chilkat Tower in units #2 and #3 and they were the perfect place to stay in Haines. We were literally "downtown" just off of Main Street, close to all the restaurants, cafes and Haines unique shops. We had a coffee shop for early morning cappuccinos just around the corner. The Tower also has a great view of the mountains. The apartment was furnished beautifully, everything seemed brand new and upscale. The beds were comfortable, the common areas ample and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook. (Washer and Dryer were a big plus.) The hosts even baked us Alaskan welcome cookies!! Randa was fabulous and responded quickly when we contacted her with questions! We would stay there in a minute when we return to Haines. Thank you!!

Ellen and I, along with our younger son, wife and granddaughter had a wonderful time staying at the Chilkat Tower #2. The only regret is that we had to return home after the six night stay. We highly recommend folks to stay at the Chilkat Tower. The suite we rented is nicely appointed and fully equipped with everything one needs in the kitchen and throughout the two bedroom apartment. A plus was the wrapped around covered deck where we enjoyed sitting and seeing the views of town and mountains. We hope to return in 2024 with other family members to visit our son, wife and two daughters who live in Haines. What a great place to stay while in Haines.

Loved our stay at Snappers' Inn. Very comfortable with most everything that we needed. Appreciated the coffee in the refrigerator and tea selections. Only very small suggestions: a fan (we hit the heat wave) and very small thing-a bar of soap-could never get a good lather. But all in all, the place was perfect for us and we hope we can return to the Inn many times in the coming years. We met our host and she was very welcoming. ps. We will bring our own soap

Made from pallets with a poor design, the chairs were narrow and put you in a leaned back position and only went up half your back so you could not even lay back and relax. Otherwise really nice decor. Clean. Beds were comfortable and the wifi worked great. Thanks

Picture Point Seaside Flat: Amazing Place!
Posted: Jun 25, 2022 |
We loved our stay at Picture Point. Beautiful, well designed, high quality finishes, incredible view on the ocean, wonderful hosts. It was perfect and we hated to leave. One of the best AirBnB’s we’ve ever stayed at and definitely the nicest one we have enjoyed in Alaska! Thank you for hosting us and we look forward to coming back again.

The View at Oceanside #2
Posted: Jun 23, 2022 |
We really enjoyed staying at Oceanside. The view was amazing! We were right on the water next to the marina. It was fun seeing the boats come and go but it felt very private. The apartment was spotless and the kitchen had everything we needed. Great window shades to keep out the "midnight sun". It is a minute walk into town. There was a coin laundry room on the first floor of the building which was also spotless. The only negative thing is there is one other apartment and the walls are very thin so you could hear talking or music. We would definitely book this place again. We loved staying there!

One of the loveliest places we’ve ever stayed. Room was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped but the view was stunning! Daily bear visits (across the river) and other wildlife. Hated to leave!

The Attic: Separate Rooms Nice
Posted: Jun 20, 2022 |
Bedrooms are separate from the dining and living room which makes it nice if someone wants to watch TV while others sleep. Plenty of hot water and towels. Kitchen has enough dishes and even some spices if you forgot yours. Stairs are steep - hence the name "The Attic" so don't book if you have mobility issues. It is very quiet even though it is right on the street. We wish there had been laundry facilities available close by as it was drizzling some while we were in Haines.

Our stay at the Cottage
Posted: Jun 17, 2022 |
My son & I had a wonderful stay at the Cottage. The view was outstanding outside on the deck. Every morning we could see eagles gliding over the vast inlet. The living area, dining area, kitchen, bedroom & bath were clean & the entire area was open & inviting. We would highly recommend this place to stay to anyone who wants to be in the heart of downtown Haines and surrounding areas.
Sincerely, Barb & Troy Wingert

The location is stunning with waterfront setting with views of snowcapped peaks and the town of Haines. Newly built unit with the best furniture and interior design I have ever seen in a vacation rental. Bald eagles and whales right out front. In a word it was perfect!

Chilkat Tower #3: Short and even better than sweet
Posted: Jun 7, 2022 |
We only spent one night at the Chilkat Towers #3, and that was the only bad part, I wish we had the time to stay longer. I have camped many times in Haines, but it turns out I can enjoy all of the natural wonder along with every convenience I would expect from home. The accommodations were above what I would have expected from any suite. Very tasteful decor, superb layout for a full house of guests. I almost hesitate to write this review because I know it will be that much harder to book my next stay.

We stayed here for two weeks. It was warm, cozy and plenty of hot water. Woke up and enjoyed watching the sun come over the mountains. Close to everything. Saw whales a few times from the deck. If you are sensitive to light or would just like to sleep in past 4:00am, bring your own eye masks, white mini blinds in the bedroom.

Beautiful home with an INCREDIBLE view!
Posted: Jun 1, 2022 |
Our stay at the Blue Heron House was phenomenal! The view alone and the privacy made it even more special you wake up to a stunning morning from the master bedroom and it never got old. We enjoyed the patio as well as the fire pit during our stay.
Teri was so accommodating, friendly and we hope to stay again in the future.
12/10, you won't regret staying here.

Couldn't have asked for a better place. Highly recommended.

The house was clean and spacious. The views of the inlet, the harbor, and the mountains were gorgeous. We were lucky enough to see whales right in the harbor throughout our stay from the back deck of the house. The check in and out procedure was easy and Randa, the property manager, was easy to deal with and responsive. The house was stocked with everything we needed like cookware, towels, comfortable beds, washer/dryee, Smart TV, Wi-Fi, toys for the kids, etc. The house is right on the edge of town so access to town is fast and easy. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again.

View at Oceanside #2: Stunning views
Posted: Apr 24, 2022 |
Views and location are great! Nice, modern and clean space. It's nice that it has a little boot room where you can leave your stuff and a bunch of games and puzzles you can use.
One downside was that there is not very good soundproofing between this unit and the one beside it. The loft is at the top of a 7ft or so rung ladder, so you gotta be spry to get up and down from there. There is not very much privacy between the bedroom and the loft, which was fine for our group, but a consideration for some. The beds in the loft were foam beds that lie flat on the floor. They were comfortable for us, but that combined with the low ceiling in the loft might not be for everyone.

The Attic was an ideal place for us to stay on our winter visit because pretty much everything is within walking distance. If it is around zero degrees you will need to use the provided space heaters which were provided. The hosts were super accommodating when we were weathered in a couple more days and even threw in a free night. I loved the place and will be staying again.

Chilkoot Haven: A true gem in the Alaskan wilderness.
Posted: Sep 30, 2021 |
Arrived after dark so we couldn't see the surroundings or the sign up the driveway, but eventually found the lodge without too much trouble. Woke up to an incredible scene. Felt like we were in a National Geographic documentary. Wide river rapids with majestic mountains bordering the riverbanks. Noticed 4 or 5 bears in and out of the water and even some cubs playing around. An occasional bald eagle swept across in front of us and even some distant mountain goats on the slopes across from us. The road below was out of sight, so it felt like we were right on the river.
The room was warm and inviting with some very nice quilts on each bed. Something that was in the website photos, but like the scenery, a subtle touch that you don't expect to impress you until you are there.
Last, but not least, a special thanks to the owner, who was especially friendly with a warm and comforting personality.

View at Oceanside: Unbelievable View, Unsurpassed Quality
Posted: Jul 29, 2021 |
We were lucky enough to be one of the first guests in this split-level apartment with incredible water and mountain views. Haines isn't a big city, but this place has parking right outside the apartment, with easy walks to every bar and restaurant downtown. The bed is soft and comfortable, and the owners didn't skimp on the quality of sheets, blankets, or towels. The most striking element are the floor-to-ceiling windows, but the bedroom is in a dark room, which is key during Alaska's long summers. The kitchen is fully stocked, so if you never wanted to eat outside the apartment, you'd have everything you'd need. The owners were responsive, friendly, and treated us like family. I can't imagine there are any nicer places to stay in Haines.

Snappers has it all
Posted: Jul 19, 2021 |
We really enjoyed Snappers Inn. The cozy little cabin had everything handy that we needed to settle into our stay. It was nice to be able to cook and have all the kitchen supplies available. We also appreciated the separate laundry room where we could come and go, hang up rain gear, take off boots, etc. Doing loads of laundry reduced the amount of packing we needed to do. We highly recommend this place. Super convenient location, views, and practical.

Chilkoot Haven is the perfect Alaska getaway!
Posted: Jul 16, 2021 |
From the moment I arrived the lodge owner, Sue and her beautiful daughters and granddaughters made me feel welcome and at home. They delivered muffins for the first morning and coffee for the duration. Being a slow season, just emerging from COVID closures, I had the place to myself, with visits from my son, researching bears in the area. I watched a mama brown bear and cubs eat sedges right across the river right from my back porch, eagles dive for fish from the trees outside, and had regular visits from hummingbirds and other wildlife too numerous to list. The room was immaculate and well-appointed, the beds super comfy, and the hot tub steps away from my door. Sue and her family are true caretakers of this sacred land. My thanks for their hospitality. I would like to come again. Gunalchéesh, Mira

Chilkat Tower - bottom floor

We had a wonderful stay at the Chilkat Tower. It was excellently furnished and equipped with all that we needed. It is in a perfect location to explore Haines, and within easy walking distance to all of downtown. Despite being in downtown, it was also quiet - until a wedding party checked in the upper two floors above us. The sound of water rushing down the plumbing caught us off guard at first. All in all, it was an excellent experience.

We stayed at Snappers Inn for a couple of nights during our honeymoon. We LOVED the little cabin! The owner was super friendly and very helpful.

We would definitely book again if in the area!

We enjoyed our stay at The Cottage in Haines, it was clean and comfortable. Location was perfect for walking downtown to the store or walks along the shore. Due to Covid-19 and limited options for dining and take out we used the kitchen extensively. It worked fine but made a few suggestions to make it even better. We would stay again!

The summer of the pandemic at the Attic!
Posted: Sep 24, 2020 |
What a terrific place to spend this crazy summer. We love coming to Haines every summer to visit our sons, and this apartment was a definite winner. Centrally located (a block to the library, grocery store, playground, coffee shop, even the local clinic); great windows in livingroom and kitchen let in so much light even when the weather was gloomy. Mountain and Lynn Canal views changed with the tides, clouds, rain and full sun. A lovely deck to enjoy being outside. My grandson loved watching the goings on outside our windows, running through the apt, and especially his easy access to the smaller refrigerator.
A couple maintenance issues were quickly taken care of by very friendly and helpful landlords, who run the real estate office downstairs. A number of bears created problems in town this summer, but our trash was not an issue because of bear resistant containers quickly provided on the porch.
A great summer! Thanks Pam & Dave Long.

My family and I stayed here for 2 months in April and May. The Attic has a beautiful view of the Inlet and Mountains. Being located close to town everything was an easy 2 mintue walk away. With a well equipped kitchen it was easy to make a meal and enjoy it on the porch. This is the perfect place for a long stay being more spacious then a hotel with a seating area, porch, kitchen and a superb view.

Great Time in AK
Posted: Mar 24, 2020 |
We stayed at the Blue Heron House for our Heli ski trip to AK. We used Seaba Heli and this house was very close to the lodge and super convenient. The owner showed up to say hi as soon as we arrived, she was so friendly and just wanted to make sure we had everything we needed. The house was perfect, clean, and comfy. The views were absolutely unreal and we got an amazing look at the Northern Lights. I would highly recommend staying here on your next trip to Haines.

Blue Heron
Posted: Nov 13, 2019 |
We enjoyed our stay, as we have in the past. It is a very nice, and relaxing place. The only thing I did not like was that the sheets were heavily perfumed. I have a scent allergy, and I don't really remember that from last time I was there. I am disappointed anywhere I go that uses scented laundry detergent, so my one recommendation would be to switch exclusively to a scent free detergent, for the sake of guests with sensitivities! I woke up with a sore throat each day after sleeping on scented sheets.
Other than that, our stay was great. I look forward to my next visit to the Blue Heron House.

Manager Response: Thank you for this suggestion. We will switch to unscented immediately.

Everything was great, it's just the wifi...it works great in room 1, not so great in room 2 but still a bar, sometimes 2 but room 3 is nothing. I had kids and employees in town that I had to keep in contact with so I always had to go to the end of the porch area and stand at the post by the main house to reconnect to the wifi. Would be great if you could get a booster so that it would work better in the end room by the hot tub. Everything else was great. Thanks again!!

Haines always delivers as a destination & staying at the Attic was a big part of that. The Attic had all we needed for our 6 night stay. It was very warm & comfortable. Sitting on the balcony with a coffee in the sunshine was great, whilst watching the world go by. The kitchen was well stocked & we cooked in 5 nights. We would have sat at the kitchen table more to benefit from the view, but the stools at the table were not comfortable for long. (not what they're made for tho, i know). I slept in the 2nd bedroom & did not think it too small as had been mentioned in other reviews. The whole apartment worked for us. Would definitely stay there again when next in Haines.

We loved our stay. We came to relax and watch bears and we got both. We were able to watch right from our room , the hot tub and our porch. And the bears preformed well!

Power was out in entire region when we arrived and the hosts did everything to make us comfy.

Large room with all the facilities you need, very clean, good beds. Best location in Haines to see wildlife, but you need a car to reach the lodge. Due to the strike of the ferry they helped us driving to the ferry to jump on the last ferry. We could leave our rental car at their house for 14 days. We forgot some things in our room because we were in a hurry catching the ferry … they kept it for us until we came back. A big thank you !!!!

This was our third stay at Chilkoot Haven. It is in the perfect spot on a bluff above the Chilkoot River. The bedding was very comfortable and the shower excellent. The sheets, pillows and towels are a touch above the normal. From our room we were able to view a large area of the river. We were lucky enough to see eagles and bears during our five day stay. We also spent time fishing on the river and going into the town of Haines nearby. The whole area is quite and peaceful and very relaxing. We definitely will be returning.

Fantastic space with unbeatable views and remarkable hospitality. We were supporting a local community event and ran into some logistical challenges. Our host went out of their way to help us find solutions, and made us feel super welcome. Definitely recommend them, and plan to go back to see them soon.

Chilkoot Haven Annual trip
Posted: Aug 6, 2019 |
My daughter and I have been taking an annual trip to Haines for the past 12 years. If we can't stay at the Haven when we want...we change the date so we can have the perfect spot to stay. It's ideally situated to walk across the street in chest waders to catch salmon or sit on your deck and watch the grizzlies walk by the river. It is honestly the best place to stay while visiting Haines in my opinion.

Posted: Aug 4, 2019 |
We already want to be back on the river. Our family loved our week in Haines. Starting the day on the river and evening strolls to the lake or at the beach, Chilkoot Haven is a magical spot where you can do it all.

Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Aug 2, 2019 |
The facility is comprised of 3 units, in a motel-style layout, with the owner (Sue) residing in the main building attached. Each unit is about the size of a typical motel room, but has a fridge, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, kettle, and various plates and cutlery that can be used. There is also a barbeque grill that is available for cooking, which is very handy. Sue will also lend you pots, pans, and other cooking gear if you need it. The location is within Chilkoot State Park, about a 15 minute drive from Haines. It is a beautiful location, and there are usually a number of people fishing in the river out front. Chilkoot Lake is about a 5 - 10 minute further drive down the road, and is definitely worth a visit. Be aware, the road is in rough shape in many places, so if you arrive at night, don't drive too fast! Overall, this is a great place to stay if you want a relaxing retreat away from the main town.

The Cottage was clean, quiet and has a great view of the bay. It was really easy to find and all the shops and restaurants are within walking distance. Our host Randa was very easy to communicate with and answered all my text messages promptly. If I get back to Haines someday, I hope to rent this little gem again. It felt just like home.

Chilkoot Haven: Comfy Room with Fantastic View
Posted: Jul 31, 2019 |
Room was very clean and nicely furnished. Very comfortable beds. View overlooking the Chilkoot River and we could see the salmon jumping on their way up the river to spawn. We saw an eagle catch a fish and then struggle to stay airborne as it carried away its catch. Would definitely stay here again.

The location was amazing: we loved the direct views of the water In (and the mountains/snow across) the Lynn canal; the views of the mountains to the west were equally stunning. Walking to the coffee shop(s), market(s), and brewery in town was easy; we liked using one of the (two) 'house bikes' to explore outside of town. The house was clean and quiet and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few simple meals. Access to the washer/dryer was also nice.

Highly recommend The Attic
Posted: Jul 9, 2019 |
The Attic was the perfect place to stay during my week in Haines. Its central location made it convenient to walk to the beach, restaurants, and grocery stores. The views of mountains and the fjord are magnificent. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to assist with preparing simple meals if you choose to. Plenty of fluffy bathroom towels are provided and the beds are comfortable. Since it is primarily businesses around it, nights and weekends are very quiet. The owners, whose real estate business is below the Attic, are friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Sarah Js, a cute breakfast/lunch stop directly across the street, is a wonderful spot for getting a delicious cappuccino and breakfast bagel. I highly recommend The Attic to anyone coming to Haines.

Chilkoot Haven is truly an incredibly beautiful and peaceful place. The location is stunning. From the moment we arrived we did not want to leave the deck overlooking the Chilkoot River. Bald eagles were nesting nearby and the bears, We understand, were getting ready for the annual salmon run. Our room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Access to the shared grill was wonderful. All the basic plates and utensils are provided for self-catering. We stayed an extra day and felt like family when we left. We hope to return again soon. Highly recommended!!

My husband, teenaged granddaughter and I stayed for 3 nights in this unit. It was very well supplied with everything one would need for a stay. The unit was clean, spacious and had nice views of the waterfront out the windows and deck. Being above a business was not at all problematic and was quiet almost all of the time, especially evenings and nights. It was very secure and we really enjoyed our time there while visiting Haines. I would recommend it to anyone.

A cozy and central location
Posted: Jun 13, 2019 |
We had a great time staying at The Attic during our small holiday in Haines. The location is very central to all the amenities you may need (nestled between the Info Centre, a coffee/breakfast shack and the grocery store), so you won't need to drive anywhere. We didn't do much cooking so the mini fridge wasn't an issue for us, however if you were staying longer than a weekend and making your own meals it might be.
Right before we checked in, we ran into one of the owners Dave, he was immensely helpful with any questions we had.
We enjoyed using the patio as well and people watching. The property was very clean and very well kept.
We loved it so much that I'm going to try and book it again next year.

The view from this house is amazing ... so peaceful looking out over the cove watching the boats going back and forth with those gorgeous mountains in the background. Easy access to everything, but in a nice quiet neighborhood. The only complaint we had was with the mattresses. They were basically just 4" foam pads on plywood, with one bed having 2 foam pads and the other bed with only foam pad, so they are definitely not comfortable for those of us with bad backs. All the other amenities were just fine.

Stumbled upon this terrific spot by accident after our reservations at another spot were suddenly canceled. Turns out, that was a blessing. Chilkoot Haven is an oasis of wonderful. Nice rooms with kitchenettes, great woodsy location along the Chilkoot Creek, gorgeous creek, mountain, eagle and bear views from the room, hot tub and an easy and scenic 9 mile drive to town. I'm from Juneau and I'll be coming back for romantic weekend get aways with my wife. Love the place so much I almost don't want to let others know about it....
There's wifi connectivity but it's somewhat limited. Other than that, it was simply a fantastic place to stay and highly recommended.

We very much enjoyed our recent stay at The Cottage! The minute you walk in, it feels like it might be an old family home--comfy chairs & couch, rustic fireplace, wagon wheel chandelier, and a beautiful Craftsman style breakfast nook. The separate bedroom has a comfortable Queen bed with flannel sheets and a nice comforter. The fold out hide-a-bed in the living room was surprisingly comfortable as well, and a selection of sheets, blankets & pillows allows you to make a cozy nest. The kitchen is well-stocked with basics & the coffee maker works great. The hot water was plentiful and pressure was good. Soap, shampoo, hairdryer, & plenty of fluffy towels were also provided. The deck provides a stunning view--wine glasses are in the kitchen cupboard. I didn't want to come home.

The Attic: Perfect Stay

Our recent 10 day stay in Haines, AK felt like home while staying at “The Attic in Haines” on Second Avenue. This immaculate two bedroom with full kitchen apartment has very large kitchen and living room windows that allowed beautiful views of the mountains, water, sunrises, and sunsets. Perfect for feeling at one with nature as we drank our morning tea and had evening drinks. It is centrally located and we were able to walk everywhere; bank, grocery stores, restaurants, and shops. Randa was exceptionally professional and worked hard to accommodate our early arrival and late departure travel needs. This was our second stay and we plan to return to this home away from home on our future visits to Haines.

My daughter and I loved our stay at the cottage for a weekend getaway to Haines from Juneau. It was great to come back to after events like First Friday and a concert at the Chilkat Center or just a drive. The only reason I reduced a half star was because the steep driveway made me a bit nervous with a layer of snow but I'm a wimp about slippery roads. It wasn't slick at all but it potentially could be if ice formed. But it was great and we loved our stay, would stay their again!

This apartment is so well located and nicely appointed. It is right downtown yet still has magnificent views of the mountains.

We have been several times and have always enjoyed it. This time we were 2 grandparents with our daughter and her 3 month old. What a perfect spot! So much better than a hotel room. Randa is fast and professional. I highly recommend you use her, if not for this space than perhaps another.

Nice big kitchen and that fabulous window in the living/dining area with the view of the ocean and mountains is to die for. Excellent place for a family or if two people want their own bedroom.

Chilkoot Haven: Best possible location in Haines to watch bears & eagles
Posted: Sep 24, 2018 |
As the saying goes, in real estate there are three key factors: location, location and location. And the Chilkoot Haven got them all! The view from the porch onto the river is just amazing - you can watch bald eagles and bears directly from there, or take a walk down some stairs to get direct access to the river. There are only 3 rooms here in the Haven, so the place never felt crowded, and chances are you meet other wildlife enthusiasts on the porch. My room itself was clean and well equipped - nothing fancy, but with a comfy bed, a hot shower in the morning, a table with two chairs to sit, a microwave and a fridge, you get everything you need to enjoy your stay. I didn't use the BBQ grill or hot tub that are available for all guests. Haines is a 20 minute drive away if you want to restock or grab something to eat, but if you're into wildlife I can almost guarantee that you won't be leaving the area until you have to! I stayed for two nights and enjoyed it immensely.

Wonderful time at Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Sep 9, 2018 |
Room was great - like a kitchenette with 2 queen beds. Was like being home and not in a hotel - lots of little things that made it feel homey - like real sheets, not the starched white ones in the hotels. Fabulous view of the river and the weir - but bring your binoculars so you can see all the action. BBQ, hot tub and picnic tables were used by people staying on either side of us both nights we were there. Loved the owner - it was like staying in her home. Would stay there again in a heartbeat and will likely plan future trips to Haines AK around their availability which we did this time.

People are always driving here to see the bears while we just sat on the patio and they were right in front of us. The bears are here because there's a weir to stop the fish. We saw a mother with 3 cubs chase another bear up the hill. We could also see an eagle nest so plenty of action with them. The room was clean and good kitchenette. The view up the river is beautiful.

The Cottage: Fantastic location, views, amenities!
Posted: Sep 5, 2018 |
So happy to have found this accommodation! I worried it was too good to be true when I booked it but it totally lived up to what was advertised. The only "issues" were the microwave and fridge needed to be wiped out and the satellite TV was difficult to use, mostly because I've never used one before. These are SO small in comparison to what we experienced: clean, lots of towels, all the dishes we needed, perfectly self-contained AND within walking distance of everything downtown with awesome views. I didn't want to leave. I will be back!!

Chilkoot Haven: Fantastic Accomodation
Posted: Sep 4, 2018 |
We stayed at Chilkoot Haven for one night at the end of August and wished it could have been more. The rooms were clean, well appointed, and the location above the Chilkoot River was incredible. We watched bears stroll the river from our deck and even caught a salmon while fishing the section of river right in front of the property. I would recommend staying at Chilkoot Haven as a unique and beautiful experience for any traveler.

Snappers Inn: Sweet house at a great Haines location
Posted: Aug 31, 2018 |
Everything at Snappers Inn was just right. Coffee for our first (and every) morning started us out. A very nice and seemingly rare convenience for vacation rentals. The spring water custom delivered when needed was a bonus too! The house is a very comfortable and functioning property with the manager and owner working together to make sure that our stay was wanting for nothing. Good Job and thanks for having us. It's where we'll stay the next trip up if you'll have us.

Blue Heron: Best house of the trip
Posted: Aug 31, 2018 |
Our family of 7 loved our time at this house. We cooked in the evenings and relaxed and enjoyed beautiful Haines during the day. My husband loved the kitchen and I loved the lovely little reading nook. I even saw a bear run through the yard one early morning while I was enjoying coffee and a book while everyone else slept. Thanks for letting us stay here.

Chilkoot Haven: What a delight
Posted: Aug 22, 2018 |
To say the truth, this was my third experience at the Chilkoot Haven and I will be returning again. We were there, my aunt and I for a 5 night stay to make sure we could see as many bears as possible.....and we did. What a beautiful Haven with all perfect commodities and extraordinary beds with window views to make sure we did not miss anything. I highly recommend this place for anybody who wishes to explore bear viewing opportunities or simply relax and enjoy the sceneru surrounding this magnificient place. Thanks .

Very pleased with this rental. It was a last minute booking for a family of 4 spontaneous trip and we were delighted with this rental. Very short trip from ferry. Walkable to town, mind the hills. Everything was clean from bedding, rooms, tables, kitchen, bathroom etc. Fully equipped kitchen came in handy since the town rolls up its carpets early and very very few restaurant choices. Laundry excellent. Parking was great. Private yard and balcony. Quiet area. Easy check in and checkout procedure. Communication was very quick. Beds are very firm but we aren't fussy. No cable TV and unfortunately neither manager or I could get the Netflix account to work but otherwise good place to stop on the Haines Circle tour.

The Cottage: Excellent!

Ripinski Retreat is Awesome!
Posted: Aug 6, 2018 |
I was very impressed with everything at the Ripinski Retreat and I would definitely recommend it to other travelers. We were two couples looking for a place to sleep and eat in between day trips around Haines and we were really impressed with everything at this house. Everything was exactly as described and the view from the deck and front windows was better than expected. Everything was set up for travelers: soap, towels, spices & other kitchen basics were provided. We even had brownies waiting for us when we arrived! The house is about a 2-3 minute drive (about 10-12 minute walk) from the IGA and the main street in town with several bars and restaurants (tip for other travelers: everything in Haines closes at around 8pm in the summer so plan ahead if you want to get groceries, etc.).

Chilkoot Haven: Stunning Spot
Posted: Aug 2, 2018 |
Amazing location right on the Chilkoot River. Doesnt get much better than sitting in the outdoor hot tub, looking out over fishermen in waders looking for salmon, the odd bear sneaking in for dinner and the constant sound of river water. Pretty much paradise! Rooms were nice, check in/out was easy. Shame we couldn't stay longer!

Best rental experience ever! The house was neat as a pin, the view of the Lynn Canal from the kitchen/dining area was exceptional, and the beds slept great. The up-to-date washing machine and dryer was easily accessible in the laundry room just off the kitchen. It was so nice to be able to pack lightly and wash clothes while we were in Haines. The location was very close to town. We walked or rode bikes everywhere! We arrived well before check-in time, but Randa kindly allowed us to store our bags in the house while it was being cleaned and readied for our arrival! We will definitely rent this house again when we return to Haines. Thank you, Randa, for a wonderful experience!!!

Chilkoot Haven: Beyond Description!
Posted: Jul 15, 2018 |
Chilkoot Haven is beyond description, but we’ll try. Each unit is immaculate and well supplied. Between the barbecue grill and microwave we were able to eat in as much as we wanted during our six night stay. The setting is spectacular. We were able to photograph eagles and fly fisherman catching salmon without leaving our porch. Brown bears strolling around added to the enjoyment. Finally, Sue, the owner, is a wonderful person and a gracious host. We hope to return next year!

Chilkoot Haven Paradise

Staying at the Chilkoot Haven was the highlight of our vacation. It is located at the very best location possible on the Chilkoot River. We enjoyed sitting outside soaking in the amazing natural beauty, watching eagles fly overhead to their nests, listening to the peaceful sounds of the river and the eagles chattering. We watched fishermen in the river and kayaks on the lake just down the road.
Sue was so nice and welcoming to us, we enjoyed spending some time asking her questions about the area. It felt as if we were visiting a friend.
Room was clean and well appointed with many ammenities geared toward relaxing and an enjoyable stay.
We loved it here and hope to return one day.
There isn't a better place to stay on the Chilkoot River. Chilkoot Haven is the best. Thank you to our wonderful host, Sue.

Our toddler loved walking around on the deck and watching all the people passing by. There's a little coffee/food place across the street for a quick bite. The view was awesome and I loved all the light streaming in the big windows. I can't say enough great things about The Attic!

A Piece of Paradise
Posted: Jun 8, 2018 |
Chilkoot Haven was a special place that was awesome! It was so peaceful and tranquil looking out over the Chilkoot river watching bald headed eagles floating in the air and to our amazement and pleasure a grizzly bear meandered along the river edge! Our room was so comfortable and with extra considered amenities such as towels for the hot tub, rubber sandals for outdoors and what a nice touch to have the muffins for our first breakfast. It was beautiful! So much so that we would truly love to come back and instead of staying 2 days we are talking about one week! Thank you for such a wonderful piece of paradise and your kindness throughout the booking process and more! Inis and Andy

It was easy to rent a car from Captain's Choice motel which was just up the the alley from the cottage.

We had a wonderful stay at Randa's cottage in Haines. The view from the cottage is breathtaking -- unobstructed views of the inlet and the surrounding mountains from the living room, dining area, and the bedroom -- and we found the home itself to be just the perfect size for a couple. It was also nice to find the cabin spotlessly clean upon arrival. The home is conveniently located within walking distance of everything within downtown Haines. We loved spending a few quiet days in Haines during the off-season, and we were even treated to a spectacular display of the northern lights which were visible right from the cottage's deck. The only thing we found disappointing is that we eventually had to leave!

We truly felt like the Attic was our home away from home. When we visit Haines again we plan to stay at the Attic.

Beautiful location better than you could imagine wonderfully cozy environment extremely clean very kind and great owner of the property was there which we were very lucky to meet the owner. The view is exceptional wonderful. Walks from the home and the river and Lake are just amazing! Anyone coming to Haines would be missing out if they didn't stay here! I will add that I like being a little bit out in the country so this is not in town however it's very simple to get to town within 15-20 minutes by car. I'm definitely going to come back! :-) also for anyone coming in the winter time it's extremely easy to get up to the house and very warm so if you're wondering if you should come in the picture this is definitely a great place to stay all year round!

We like to cook our own meals and were limited on what we could stock up on with the small fridge and no freezer space.

It is a quiet, comfortable home with everything you could need to enjoy your stay to include a fully-stocked kitchen and washer/dryer. We stayed for only two nights and we didn't want to leave! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to have a relaxing, yet convenient place to stay in Haines. We were in Haines in late November to experience the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve, an absolute must-do for anyone who loves nature.

I have stayed here many times when I have had occasion to go to Haines. It is right in town, and might possibly have the best view of the waters of Lynn Canal as any place in Haines! Clean, new and cozy - even in the winter time.

Best stay of our Alaska vacation
Posted: Nov 12, 2017 |
My husband and I loved our days at Chilkoot Haven. We were warmly welcomed by Erica. Each day we watched brown bears and eagles from our location above the Chilkoot River. We could hear the river flowing and the eagles cackling. It was amazing! We hope to return someday to this very special place, our favorite of this summer's Alaska vacation.

We spent two nights here in October, and it couldn't have been nicer. Randa was very helpful prior to arrival, and the accommodations were great. Beds were comfortable, the room was clean, dishes were provided in the kitchenette, and a nice surprise: the hot tub was still on! We really appreciated having the small table and chairs in the room, it made all the difference giving our two children a place to colour and eat. We will be back!

Excellent stay at Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Sep 21, 2017 |
This place was a delight. We arrived at night after the ferry ride from Skagway, so we didn't know about the incredible view until the next morning. Opened the curtains to see bears feeding along the river bank. Room was warm and well-furnished — the next day, we ordered the same set of pillows that were on our bed. Sue and Erika were very friendly and helpful, and Randa did a great job with the reservations. We will be back.

The Attic is located in town and is walking distance from all museums, galleries, and restaurants in town. It has a lovely deck with town, mountain, and water views. The kitchen is well equipped, but do be warned that the freezer is very small. Other than that, you'll have everything you need. We had a late ferry out, and since no one else had the place that night we're able to check out in late afternoon...which we really appreciated. We would definitely stay again, and Haines was beautiful so there is a good chance we'll be back. If you're considering staying here, don't hesitate.

Chilkoot Haven: Loved loved loved this place!
Posted: Sep 8, 2017 |
Chilkoot Haven is a tiny piece of heaven in this beautiful corner of Alaska. We were warmly greeted by Erica on our arrival. She proudly showed us the freshly painted rooms with cozy quilts on the beds, then walked us outdoors to showcase the incredible view to the river below. Our jaws nearly hit the floor. We were struck by the beauty of this place and the magic of watching the river rush by as fishermen waded through the water to catch their fish.
Erica provided great advice about dealing with the 'friendly' brown bears in the area. We were fortunate to watch seven bears make their way up the river as they looked for fish to eat. She spent lots of time with our children watching the bears and chatting away.
The rooms are cute and cozy, each with two Queen beds and a small kitchen area (fridge, microwave, coffee maker, dishes). We also had access to the BBQ area, so we rushed back into town to grab some steaks in order to sit outdoors and watch the beauty of the bears and the river.

Spectacular Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Sep 7, 2017 |
We arrived late in the dark and could only hear the river outside out lovely and well-appointed room. The beds were very comfortable, everything was clean and there were even muffins set out for breakfast! The real treat was opening the curtains in the morning and seeing the most spectacular river view! It was breathtaking and a bear even came out to say good morning (and get his breakfast!). I wish we had more time to stay but I will return again and recommend it 110% as a place to stay in Haines.

Fantastic stay!
Posted: Sep 1, 2017 |
My daughter and I had a wonderful two night stay. It truly lived up to its' perfect review rating - exceeded my expectations - I agree with the reviewer who said that if you don't like Chilkhoot Haven, you won't like heaven! I was concerned that two nights would be too long as Haines is a very small town and Chilkhoot Haven is 10 miles outside of town but two days wasn't long enough - double that would be great.
We were there Aug 22-23 during the salmon run. Tons of salmon and we had a great time watching two 3 year old grizzly siblings frolic on the flats near the ocean, sneak onto the weir, and fish for salmon in the river. Lots of bald eagles as well. Beautiful scenery. Rooms also appear to be newly renovated, even nicer than in the online pictures. Made good use of the barbecue, just bought groceries at the Haines IGA. Lovely "neighbours" in the other two rooms who shared our interest in the wildlife. Erica was very accommodating, and the owner, Sue, was charming and welcoming, ga

Best lodging in our Alaska trip
Posted: Aug 23, 2017 |
Snapper's Inn was very clean, spacious and homey. We appreciated the 4 pillows (all with very good support) on each bed. Patricia, the owner, was thoughtful in putting out down comforters (cool temperatures during our stay). Her husband built the beds. We also appreciated the fluffy towels and use of the washer and dryer. Location very convenient to reach ferry terminal, towards Chilkoot Lake and weir (just a few minutes wait for free bear viewing), etc. Good view of inlet. Saw some stars when the clouds cleared. But it was Patricia's hospitality and friendliness that made our stay in Haines enjoyable and memorable.

Fantastic house and property surrounded by spectacular waterfront scenery and moutains. Plush modern spacious comfortable home on a beautiful waterfront property with spectacular views of open waterways, mountain ranges, the harbor and town of Haines. This is the perfect location and I greatly enjoyed staying in this wonderful home. This is the Alaskan experience you really want. Watching the sunset into the mountains, building a fire in the pit, and star gazing late into the night. Morning coffee in the sunroom and walk to town. A hike or some fishing or golf. Blue Heron and Haines is the best!!

Chilkoot Haven: Great experience
Posted: Aug 22, 2017 |
What a wonderful place to enjoy bear viewing in a calm and quiet surrounding. The lodge was perfect with all the ameneties you need. The television would not be required as far as I am concerned because looking out through the sliding window door for the wonderful view of the Chilkoot river is much more lovely, especially during bear season. Thanks for everything.

The Attic
Posted: Aug 21, 2017 |
The Attic is perfectly situated in town. We could walk everywhere. The space itself is comfortable. A lot of day light streams into the rooms. This was particularly nice since the weather was grey and rainy for our entire stay. You can see the mountains through the kitchen window as well as living room windows. The clouds drifted over them making them disappear and reappear draped in different arrangements of mist thick and thin. Occasionally spots of sun broke the spell. We had most of our meals at home. The kitchen is very well equipped. There are three grocery stores nearby. One night we ate at the restaurant on the harbor. There was an endless stream of people either putting boats in or pulling them out of the water. It was a special treat that one of the boats was a dugout canoe, beautifully painted in red and black. Do not miss the Raptor Center, Sheldon Museum and Hammer Museum!

Blue Heron House: Amazing view!
Posted: Aug 16, 2017 |
We stayed here for 2 weeks in August. Everything we needed for a family of six was here. Laundry and wi-fi worked great. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor games and most of all the firepit. The water views are fabulous and the fact that the house is between two roads does not detract from that. There is enough vegetation in the back to keep the road from view. The location is excellent , you can walk to downtown and it is still a short drive to the ferry terminal and Chilkoot Lake area (where we saw lots of bears!)
One down side is that there are no screens on the back doors. Flys were an extreme nuisance and it would have been nice to be able to keep them out while enjoying the beautiful Alaskan weather. Also, the hot water kept running out when we showered, so we had to space out the showers because of this.
Overall, I would recommend staying at this great location to enjoy the beautiful views that Blue Heron has to offer.

We had a FABULOUS stay at the Chilkoot river! Our stay exceeded expectations. The view from the cabins are beyond belief - you're high on a hill, and able to view the bears and fishermen. There's a private area to fish, which was great fun for my family. We will recommend this place to our friends and family, and we can't wait to come back! We got a chance to meet the owner who is a lovely woman, and got to know Ericka, a staffer who made our stay so fun. She even let me borrow her waiters so I could wade deeper in the river. We loved these cabins, the people, the wildlife .... can't say enough nice things :). We'll be back!

Chilkoot Haven: A 'Beary' Great Stay
Posted: Aug 2, 2017 |
The main selling feature of this property is it's location. This is bear heaven. Each room overlooks the scenic Chilkoot River. We saw bears and fishermen fish in the river. We also ran into a pair of young bears right outside our door next to our car!!
The unit itself is very comfortable and has a little kitchen area with fridge; utensils; microwave and coffee maker.
We were shown a room which contained other items for guest use eg bbq utensils; aluminum foil; toaster etc and even bear spray.
The drive to the unit is extremely scenic.
It is away from downtown and had no shops/eateries nearby. (Though this did not bother us).
It is also close to the State ferries.
Highly recommended.

Ripinski Retreat: A peaceful and cozy haven in Haines
Posted: Jul 31, 2017 |
We stayed here as a family of four (two adults and two children) during the Haines State Fair this year. We felt immediately at home as the neighbourhood kids welcomed our children to their awesome tree fort and swing. We've rented several properties through VRBO and this will remain one of our favourites. It's clean, comfortable and well appointed. The view from the living room and deck is outstanding on a clear day. The property is within easy walking distance to Main Street but is tucked just far enough up the hill to keep things nice and quiet. I hope we can come back here.

This retreat was the perfect spot for me and my sister to get away! The space was perfect for us each to have our rooms, but still be close. The only issue was when we both tried to warm up after a chilly day with each taking a hot shower back-to-back! One of us was definitely luckier than the other in having gone first. Otherwise, We loved it! The deck space was amazing and heavily utilized. We'd definitely stay here again.

This place really lived up to the reviews. We sighted bears on the other side of the river immediately after checking in, and enjoyed watching the comings and goings of eagles from their nest in a nearby tree. We enjoyed the provided breakfast of coffee and a large muffin on the patio (we were in room #1) with a stunning backdrop of river and mountain. The only negative here is directed at ourselves - for booking just a lone night. We will be back.

We greatly enjoyed two vacations at the Blue Heron House this year with our families. The house is perfect for groups with kids as well as grandparents and has a spectacular view of the mountains and ocean. There were only a few little things missing: condiments (oil, vinegar, etc) and wood cutting boards for cooking in the big lovely kitchen, the darker drapes for sleeping (we brought our own on the second trip) and a chair for removing one's shoes in the entrance-way. We greatly enjoyed our stays and will likely return again next year. - A & P, Whitehorse

The Cottage in Haines: A wonderful cottage with amazing views
Posted: Jul 4, 2017 |
We stayed at the cottage for three nights in June during a road-trip through Alaska and the Yukon. It was a lovely place to relax for a few days and made a perfect base for day trips to Skagway and the Chilcat Bald Eagle Preserve. The cottage was very cozy and well equipped. The view are truly stunning and we wish we could have spent more time spotting eagles from the deck and watching the cruise ships sail past. I would recommend the cottage to anyone who prefer a quiet location in contrast to the hustle and bustle of the major cruise ship stopovers. The fast ferry allows for a fun day trip to Skagway and there are plenty of activities in Haines itself. We hope to stay here again in the future. Thanks Randa : )

This comfortable apartment had everything you'd have at home except washer-drier. It was clean, well-located across the street from Visitor Info and from an espresso place. Easy walking to anywhere in Haines. Randa was helpful & easy to work with.

Ripinski Retreat: Perfect place for a family
Posted: Jun 30, 2017 |
We absolutely loved this place! The view from the window is absolutely gorgeous, the house has everything you need. We had 3 children with us and we had enough space for everybody! The house is nice and cozy. Very comfortable beds. I usually don't sleep very well at hotels but here I slept perfectly well for the whole week we stayed here! Absolutely recommend it!

Amazing Stay!
Posted: Jun 29, 2017 |
Hello! Our stay at the Chilkoot was amazing! The only thing I could complain about is that it was too short a visit. Erica was super friendly and helpful, and the room was beautiful! Clean, beautiful quilts and amenities and great view! It was awesome too that it was so close to Chilkoot Lake! Would definitely stay there again. Thank you!

Beautiful, peaceful river retreat
Posted: Jun 16, 2017 |
I stayed at the Chilkoot Haven Lodge a few years ago and was so glad to come back. The rooms are quiet, comfortable, and very clean. The host was super helpful and the rooms had many nice touches including access to extras like a toaster oven & BBQ tools; kitchen items in the room like cups, bowls, and silverware; and several nice little things - plush towels, extra pillows, and good quality toilet paper. And then there were the big things - watching eagles and bears on the river from the porch, trying to identify all the wildflowers, and just enjoying the sound of the river. We fished for trout on the lake, chatted with the fish-counter on the weir, and introduced several family members to the lovely town of Haines & Sue's amazing little haven on the river. Thanks again for everything!

We had an AMAZING time at Chilkoot. We saw a family of grizzlys from across the river (our view from the patio outside our room) as well as other wildlife. The room was clean, cozy, and very comfortable. Our host Erika immediately welcomed us to Chilkoot Haven and shared some stories with us we will never forget. Amazing location, amazing accomodations, and even better host! Had such a good time here!!

Chilkoot Haven: Just as I expected..
Posted: Jun 4, 2017 |
This is my second time in CH,I have always wanted to visit Haines at least once a yr and to make it more memorable I would prefer CH to call my cocoon.
View of the river with its' sound never fails.Our caretaker that time was very accommodating. The room has the basic amenities not to mention the barbecue area is handy.I went in May this time, caught 2 dolly varden across the river (near the Chilkat park- walking distance).
Next yr,I might book June or July related to fishing. Although you need a car,scooter or bike for going to & from downtown...I believe it adds up to the beauty of it, call it seclusion/solace....just a beautiful journey!

Although it rained two of our three days in Haines, the cottage was a cozy comfortable refuge with a great view. We appreciated all the amenities - the kitchen was extremely well-equipped, the DVDs and Netflix provided an alternative to reading and board games, and the house was spotless. It's also very centrally located and an easy place from which to explore the town.
A wonderful place to stay in Haines!

Home away from Home
Posted: Jun 2, 2017 |
Our stay at The Cottage was wonderful. The patio had an incredible view and was very private. Everything was provided for us and available within the Cottage, and if it wasn't we knew it was only a phone call away.
We loved being able to park for the weekend and just walk to where we needed to go. The grocery store, liquor store, coffee shops and museums are only a short walk away which is very convenient. The location was great.
My only suggestion might be darker curtains for the bedroom as the midnight sun rose earlier than we do. Otherwise, it was perfect and we look forward to staying there again in the future.
Thank you so much Randa,
Keith and Jess

This was one of the most scenic rooms we have ever had. Breath taking view of the river and mountain. On site manager is gracious and friendly. Our room had 2 comfortable queen beds. The small kitchen with microwave was more than adequate for our stay. I would have liked to use the grilling area but we did not have time. We really enjoyed sitting on the patio area overlooking the river watching the eagles and ducks work.

Your service and communication was excellent. We really liked the location and view and it was well stocked with all the supplies, towels, dishes etc. The only recomendation I can think of is it would be nice to get the fireplace working. We brought our own pot and pan to avoid Teflon, I didn't really check the pots out so perhaps they were fine. I understand that people tend to steal things that are too nice. We would be happy to stay there again.

Manager Response: The fireplace works but unfortunately it makes the cabin too hot, causing the furnace to shut off, causing the hot water to get cold. Sorry!

Loved the location. Never saw so many eagles and it wasn't even peak salmon season yet. Didn't see any bears but only because we had fallen asleep when they came to the river.
Quality materials used in the construction of the rooms, attention to detail. Comfy bed!
Erica the property manager was very informative and helpful.

Thank you for having us and our guests stay at your cabin. We have a wonderful stay for two nights.

Nice and professional service of Ericka as well. Thank you and we will come back again!

My wife and I happened onto "the cottage" and were very pleased with our find. The house has a wonderful view of Lynn Canal and the small boat harbor. It is in town so you can walk everywhere.

I brought my wife and her best friend up from Colorado to do some rad skiing outside of Haines. Knowing we would be dealing with no transportation, down days and weather issues we wanted a centralized spot near downtown. The Attic was the perfect solution. It is a cute little flat with everything we needed to really feel at home while we were here. We could walk anywhere in town, it was very comfortable and the owners were more than amazing working with us on dates and weather windows for our stay. I would not give it a second thought staying here again on our next trip! It also has a great view out the front windows towards the water and is across the street from a super fun little coffee and croissant spot which was delicious!

The Attic is a very comfortable apartment & located right in the heart of Haines. We loved that it was across the street from Yelp's highest rated coffee/breakfast/lunch listing. Everything was neat & orderly. Randa allowed us to check in early which was much appreciated. She was very responsive & gave us great advise about traveling to Haines to photograph the eagles. This is a great place for people attending the annual Eagle Festival.

Fishing Getaway
Posted: Oct 18, 2016 |
Ripinski Retreat was the perfect place for our extended family to stay during our Fall fishing weekend. It was equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, sleep comfortably, and relax after our busy days. The host made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible, right down to the plate of brownies that were waiting for us upon our arrival. We will be coming back for sure! Reservations by Randa was so wonderful to book with. I sent an email stating what we were looking for and the dates we were travelling and she offered us the rental that ended up meeting all of our needs. No fuss, easy transaction and 100% satisfied. Would highly recommend booking a trip to Haines this way.

Chilkoot Haven: A Gem of a Find
Posted: Oct 15, 2016 |
If you want to wake up and look out your window to hear a quietly babbling river punctuated with the conversation of Eagles, open your eyes to wander up the Chilkoot river, all without leaving your bed...possibly see bears fishing, well this is it. My friend and I were able to cook all our meals there with the help of a BBQ and burner on the BBQ as well as the little kitchenette in the room. Access to pots, toaster, grilling utensils and so on. ( had to cook food that was gluten and dairy free making restaurants awkward). It could not have been better. For fishermen, there is a freezer available. Very comfortable beds, in a nicely decorated room. A real treasure in Haines.

Chilkoot Haven Heaven!
Posted: Oct 10, 2016 |
We enjoyed the most fabulous 4 comfortable nights staying in the most amazing setting nestled amongst the trees and overlooking the Chilkkoot River and weir watching the bald eagles swooping for salmon, fishermen casting for salmon and with bears "on tap" scooping up the salmon!
The Haven was impressive, very comfortable and clean and many thanks to Sue our stay got even better when we were able to spend two nights in the residence!
Thankyou for all you did to make our stay as good as it could get!
We loved Haines and the friendliness of everyone! Thankyou!

Beautiful home! Couldn't ask for more. Much nicer than fishing cabins! At the time of booking I wasn't aware that it was someone's personal home that I was using while they lived temporarily on site (family pictures, zip tied cabinets and closets, etc). Also I didn't realize the home isn't directly on the water (a road separates). The owner makes use of the garage attached to the house. However... We had zero issues with the owner and the place was amazingly clean and beautiful!! Beautifully decorated and modern. And the view was fantastic! Satellite internet (no streaming) and DVD player (no TV channels) but who needs that when in Haines? Kitchen stocked with spices and everything you could need. Home is just on the edge of town. Thank you for a perfect stay!

Chilkoot Haven...should be called Chilkoot Heaven!
Posted: Sep 27, 2016 |
We booked the Chilkoot Haven specifically for an 'up close' photography experience with bears during the 2016 Salmon run in the Chilkoot River. The location is absolutely perfect. Being elevated, you are able to scan the entire section of river and with a good camera and lens you can capture images / video from right in front of your room. The better option is to spot bears from the porch area of the lodge, then walk to wherever is the closest safe location to observe the bears. The bears come close to the lodge. On more than one occasion the bears were at the bottom of the stairs which lead up from the river to the lodge. The river also holds seals and plenty of eagles and other birdlife as well.
Room 3 was large enough for 2 with a microwave, kettle etc for preparing light meals. There is a good sized BBQ with a gas burner in the covered BBQ area that is shared by guests. Wifi can be a bit slow but the real action is on the river! Highly recommended for photographers and fishermen!

Awesome time

We had a wonderful time watching the two bear families! We had a problem at home so it would have been nice to have cell service, but that is probably out of your hands. I was commenting that a hair dryer seems more needed than an iron, but that 's just me. No complaints at all - gorgeous place, very comfortable. We didn't have any neighbors, but I'm not sure how the patio would be if the place was full. I guess it would be a great way to meet people, but not much privacy. I have already told lots of friends about your awesome place!

Cottage in Haines - Loved it
Posted: Sep 23, 2016 |
This is my second stay at the Cottage. I absolutely love it. The location is perfect. The view is amazing. We rearrange the living room and watch the ocean while we have our morning coffee or night cap. We plan to return every year around the same time. WIFI was an unexpected added bonus. Very clean. Nice bathroom.
We couldn't figure out the bedroom TV. We got in plugged in but couldn't get the TV to actually function. I would suggest having it set up so all the guests have to do is turn it on. The living room TV was perfect.
Last Sept when we were there, there was a big thick red satin bed spread and shams. It was a very comfortable and attractive bed linen set. There was nothing wrong with the bed linen set this time but hard to out do that nice red one.
I love the Cottage. See you next year :)

Our experience at Chilkoot Haven was awesome!! Your place is lovely and would like to come back some day! It was a special treat to be able to see the bears from the deck and then drive down to the river. The sound of the river and the eagles was very soothing. Our only constructive criticism would be to suggest a fan so we could get the air moving...left the window open, but it was a bit stuffy :)
Would definitely recommend this awesome place to our friends!

A little piece of heaven near Haines Alaska, called Chilkoot Haven Lodge will satisfy all your needs
Posted: Sep 20, 2016 |
This was our third stay at Chilkoot Haven Lodge our other stays were in 2011 and 2012. We have never been disappointed with our choice even though the salmon run was poor this year there was still plenty of fishing and bear photography to fill your days. The beauty and location of the lodge is superb with the Chilkoot River only steps away with bears, eagles, salmon and even Harbour Seals coming and going all day. The facilities are splendid with a great barbecue area for preparing your meals of fresh fish or what ever you enjoy having. The owner Sue Folletti is always a very accommodating host and along with her sister Kathy will ensure your stay is a memorable one. We went to sleep each night listening to the Chilkoot River flowing by on it's way to the ocean a short distance away, and woke up each morning to the cries of eagles and gulls along the river. There is really only one very bad thing about Chilkoot Haven Lodge and that is having to leave at the end of your stay, it's hard.

Chilkoot Haven: Magnificent Haven
Posted: Sep 15, 2016 |
Undoubtedly one of the highlights of our Alaskan adventure. We arrived after a fifteen minute drive from Haines to find the room ready and stepped out onto the deck. The Chilkoot River flowed below and in the distance we could see bears feeding on the spawning salmon. Over the next three days we drove and walked around in both sunlight and rain. But our base allowed us comfort and a place to observe the Bald Eagles and bears below. There is a great BBQ that we used on two nights with additional accessories in a room nearby. This is a beautiful, magical place to stay - the Chilkoot Lake is a five minute walk away and the river and mountains make it so special.

Enjoyed the accommodations. Very nice, great kitchen facilities, clean and cheerful. I think a small nightstand by bed in small room would be appreciated. I used stool from kitchen. Also used one of the stools in the bathroom. The mirror over the counter being so low, the stool enabled me to utilize it. A small bench or stool would be nice. Also other mirror in bathroom would be much better without the pattern in it. Such small things but ones I think would be so appreciated by any guest. Met Pam. Tell her thanks again for the welcome gifts and we all enjoyed our stay at the Attic.

The Cottage
Posted: Aug 27, 2016 |
The reservation process with Reservations by Randa was really efficient and painless!
The location of The Cottage is perfect - so close to town but very private. The owner is very willing to accommodate special requests and attend to anything needing attention. We found everything we needed was included and the place had a comfortable feeling of being at home. On the other hand though, the bed felt old - firm still and not saggy but old. The pull out couch mattress and pillows are past their prime too. The place seemed to be clean overall, but I did need to do some cleaning in the bathroom around the sink and on the toilet. Regardless of these less than glowing last couple of comments though, I would definitely stay at The Cottage again and recommend it to those traveling to Haines!

First stay at Chilkoot Haven

Chilkoot Haven has one of the best locations and spectacular views along the Chilkkot River. The fly fishing and wildlife are beyond belief in the area and the rooms at Chilkoot Haven of the highest standard and cleanliness. A stay there would certainly please the most discriminating traveler.

Gorgeous house overlooking the ocean
Posted: Aug 15, 2016 |
What more do you need? The Blue Heron House is beautiful, spacious, has a wonderful kitchen, a jetted hot tub for two, fire pit and fire wood, a sunny reading nook, laundry with state of the art machines and is within walking distance of downtown shopping, eating and the new brewery! Not to mention killer ocean views. We had endless entertainment watching the ships go by.

The Attic worked great for us!!
Posted: Aug 14, 2016 |
I live in Haines and two families (4 people/3 people) in my family were visiting at the same time and The Attic fit the bill perfectly: a quality place to nicely house 3 or 4 people in easy walking distance to my house at a reasonable cost, we lucked out! The family that actually stayed here enjoyed the accommodations and the view and the central location and we all enjoyed visiting them here at one point or another. My house was the true hub of the visit where I stayed and one of the families but this adventure couldn't have turned out so well for everyone without The Attic. We all want a repeat of this visit, hopefully not too much time will go by and we'll be booking with The Attic again. Randa was perfect too! :-) Big, big Thank You!! 5 Stars Plus!

Excellent!

Room was very clean and ready for us upon arrival. The view was amazing over the river. The room next to us was occupied, but it was still quiet and enjoyable. It would be helpful if driving directions could be improved on the email. Perhaps there could be detailed instructions given depending on where you are driving from (ex: the ferry, Haines Junction) as we had to stop in town and ask. Otherwise, thank you for a wonderful experience and we will definitely recommend Chilkoot Haven to others.

Loved it!
Posted: Aug 12, 2016 |
We stayed at Snapper's Inn for two nights, and absolutely loved it. The view is stunning and the location is very convenient - two blocks from "downtown' so far enough that you don't hear any traffic. Patricia welcomed us on the first day, just a few minutes after we arrived and gave us some recommendations on places to go and things to do. The place was clean and well stocked with everything we needed (Patricia even had cold mugs in the freezer, which we used for our fresh draft!). The deck and yard provided a much appreciated location for tanning and eagle sighting. The beds are not full mattresses but they were comfortable. We will definitely be coming back to stay here and would recommend it to anyone traveling to the area.

Snappers Inn was perfect!

Snappers Inn was perfect for us. Right on the harbor, walking distance to town and groceries. Location, Location, Location...this is it. Attention to detail was great and the house was immaculate. The owner Patricia stopped by to make sure everything was ok and comfortable. Highly recommend Snappers Inn! Randa's communication via email was 5 stars.

One night stay in August - awesome

My husband and myself stayed for one afternoon/night in Chilkoot Haven #3 and loved our stay. The drive there is lovely and the view of the river and the wildlife is great. We sat down on the porch with a little beer and just enjoyed the wildlife and landscape for hours. definitely recommended!

This was our second visit at the lodge.the lodge is very well kept and very comfortable.

The staff is always accommodating and very helpful. The BBQ facilities and kitchenette allow meals to made on site, a great feature as Haines is approximately 15 min out.

Everything we hoped for at Chilkoot Haven
Posted: Aug 4, 2016 |
We loved our stay at Chilkoot Haven. This was our first trip to Haines and it will not be our last. Our room had everything we need with 2 double beds and a kitchenette and bath, but the most impressive thing was the view. The glass doors opened onto a patio and the view of the Chilkoot River. It was breathtaking!!! My husband enjoyed the fishing even though it was a bit early for the salmon, and I enjoyed all the nature, especially the eagles. We definitely will be returning to Chilkoot Haven, and will be staying longer the nest time. Thanks for a wonderful place to stay.

LOVED staying at the Blue Heron House in Haines AK
Posted: Aug 3, 2016 |
While Haines, Alaska is a small quaint town located on the inside passage, Blue Heron House is an amazing place to stay with all the amenities and million dollar view. I have vacationed in Haines for years however this was by far the nicest accommodation. It is close to main street but far enough away to feel you are in the wilderness. Very picturesque, especially with the wild flowers and wild life!
Blue Heron House is large and beautifully decorated home. with very comfortable beds and the artwork on the walls is amazing, done by local artists. In the morning, you can sit on the deck facing the water and sip your coffee, exercise/yoga or just relax and enjoy the view. The gourmet kitchen is so clean and everything you need is there. In the evening, you can have an outdoor fire, or if it is too cold outside, use the indoor fireplace.
Blue Heron House in Haines Alaska is THE place to stay when visiting Haines.

The location is the best place in Haines if you have plans to fish the Chilkoot River or Lake. The view is spectacular even on rainy/windy days since the terrace is well protected from the elements. I appreciated the little things like fresh ground coffee and breakfast muffins. We had dinner using the common BBQ and eating area with some other guests which was the highlight of our trip.

Chilkoot Haven: Strategic location on river bend of Chilkoot
Posted: Jul 22, 2016 |
Loved the scenic views-away from town-after all that is why you come to Alaska-but FIY it's not that far from everything you need-restaurants, etc. Highly recommend spending time in beautiful Haines. Eagles, bears, snowcapped mtns, lakes and rivers...a short 1/2 awesome flight from Juneau which doubles as a sightseeing flight-our pilot took us over rainbow glacier for extra views-what more could you ask for. Ruthie from Fresno, California

Amazing view
Posted: Jul 14, 2016 |
The Blue Heron was amazing and was better than expected. It was tidy and there were clear instructions for things like wifi and expectations. A few nice extras too - the badminton net was set up and a beanbag game was put out, which we definitely took advantage of, and a few beer glasses were getting frosty in the freezer for a post-travel beer. :) all-in-all an amazing time with an amazing view and accommodations. I couldn't recommend it more.

?Blue Heron has quite possibly the most majestic vistas I have seen! Bald eagles flying back and forth, incredible views of the water and mountains. Walking distance to town and short drives to many incredible hikes and nature viewing areas. House was lovely and clean and well maintained. The fire pit is an amazing place to unwind after a long day and the amenities (volley ball, corn hole, etc) were a lot of fun. Highly highly recommended! A+!

The Attic: Excellent Experience
Posted: Jul 7, 2016 |
The place met our needs perfectly. It was short on a few cooking pans for a meal we were making but otherwise it was wonderful. The view & location are stellar. It was clean and spacious for the three people we had. The communication/customer service was great too. Would definitely recommend and stay here again in the future.

We have been coming here for years and just love it. Great rooms, love that heated floor..the best spot for bear watching and for fishing and the outdoor cooking area is a real nice touch. Overall a 10 out of ten in my book. Have stayed other places in Haines and they don't come close to this.

Snappers Inn--basic but very comfy
Posted: Jun 27, 2016 |
This cottage is basic but very comfy and has all amenities needed. Great view of the water and mountains, very close to downtown, off street parking, quiet neighborhood and street. Dishes, kitchen, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher all very new, and cooking items (pots, pans etc.) all provided. Bathroom with tub/shower, toilet and sink very clean and plenty of hot water. Two small bedrooms with largeish closets (no dresser but good shelves in closet for clothes etc.) Lots of pillow options (very much appreciated!) Blinds for bedroom windows so you can darken the room (and get woken by the light at 3 am!) Deck outside is nice. A very good place to base your Haines adventures, easy walk to downtown amenities (4 blocks with a short hill), and a very quick drive to anything else. Best of all its in beautiful Haines with the road north to the Yukon & beyond! Host response very quick. It's pricy but quite in line with other accommodations (midsummer) with all the comforts of your own place.

Our second time to stay in these very comfortable rooms. The view is fantastic the
weather was great and also very quiet and peaceful. To sit out on your own back patio and look right down on the river was very pleasant. We watched and photographed the new baby Mergansers (ducks). We were too early for the salmon run and to photograph the Brown Bears make their catch.

Booking and arrangements were very smooth through Reservations By Randa, and we found the place to exactly as advertised. I have visited and stayed overnight in Haines so many times over 30+ years, and have to say this place is on top of my list. It is clean, comfortable, quiet, close to amenities, and a great view. Although not a wilderness setting, it was a great starting point for exploring the Haines area with my sisters. Tip: let the shower water run awhile... it will get hot! Also, if you have trouble with stairs you may want to reconsider.

Exceptional View

Snapper's Inn--tidy, well-appointed
Posted: Jun 1, 2016 |
This visit was our third opportunity to stay in one of Randa's properties. While each has been most satisfactory, Snapper's Inn was our favorite. The photos and description match the property; it is a tidy little well-appointed two-bedroom house/cottage with a great view! Part of the charm for us was the location, as we were traveling without a vehicle. Everything in "Haines proper" was easily walkable, yet we were just enough out of the way to miss the congestion that can happen on cruise ship day(s).

The Attic!
Posted: May 29, 2016 |
We really enjoyed staying at the Attic. There were great views, a neat little patio area, and excellent water pressure in shower. It's centrally located so that so that you're a mere skip from downtown stuff (like groceries & brewery) and a short walk from Ft Seward (where best dinner options are). Communication was smooth and prompt. Would definitely stay there again.

The Attic

My guests and I really enjoyed the place. And someone who visited us during our stay was very pleased to have been made aware of it, for his future visit to Haines. If I may make a small suggestion, it would be to provide some sheer curtains for the large bay window in the kitchen to make it more comfortable to eat in the morning when the sun is really blinding.

Such a Gorgeous Home!

We had such a wonderful stay at the Blue Heron House! The location of the house is perfect with a short walk to town and an incredible view of the ocean and mountains. The house itself is also gorgeous with plenty of linens, kitchen supplies and other amenities that made our stay very comfortable and easy.

The best place for a family to stay in Haines!
Posted: Feb 3, 2016 |
We went to Haines to support our sons at a swim meet and I am soo glad that we booked the Cottage. It was conveniently located - close to the down town (re stores and the two restaurants that were open) and a short walk to the beach AND If you follow the owners instructions - it is not too hard to find :) I loved having our own space where we could just hang out. The two things that really stood out for me were: firstly the kitchen. In winter there are not a lot of dining options for visitors to Haines. Throw a couple vegetarians into the mix and having a place where you can prepare and eat your own food was fantastic. Secondly, the view from the kitchen / front deck was absolutely stunning. Yes it helped that we had crystal clear days and the mountains were all painted with fresh snow - but they were larger than life. The cottage situates you to look out over the inlet at them. That meant so much to me that I didn't even turn the tv on once the entire time we were there.

The Cottage
Posted: Jan 3, 2016 |
In general we really liked the place. Out was comfortable for 5 people, nice appliances, warm. Kitchen area needs better lighting, and parking area was not plowed so we had to park at the top of the hill and walk down the icy driveway/street to get to the place.
|
 |
The Cottage: Good in-town stay, great alternative to a hotel
Posted: Oct 2, 2015 |
Since hotels in Haines can run $120+ a night, consider The Cottage, you can house 3-4 people comfortably & you get a good view, a little deck, a full kitchen & you can still stumble around Haines after a day of fishing & not have to drive back to your cabin in the woods... My 6 year old also enjoyed the "home feel" of the place, a hotel would have probably bored him to death... On a final note, the pictures do not do this place justice, it is really has a lot more character inside.
If The Cottage isn't exactly what you are looking for in Haines, contact 'Reservations by Randa' to look at other properties she manages & I am certain you will find something to your liking, there are A LOT of private properties to rent in Haines! Why settle for mediocre hotel rooms when you can have a property to yourself???

The best place to stay in Haines, AK
Posted: Sep 8, 2015 |
Our experience at The Attic was great. We would definitely stay here again.
The only problem was that we didn't have WiFi. The owner came over with a temporary solution but the WiFi stopped working after few hours.
Believing that the WiFi issue will be resolved permanently, we would recommend this place to family and friends.
Special thanks go to Randa for excellent service!

Perfect place to stay in Haines!
Posted: Jul 27, 2015 |
The Attic was the perfect place to stay in Haines! We arrived from the ferry a little early before check-in, and the place was still being cleaned up from the last guest, but our host let us drop off our bags and even gave us some advice for good places to eat. The beds were comfy, and the big picture windows gave a great view of the harbor! We didn't have a car, which made getting downtown from the ferry a bit difficult (the only taxi in Haines wasn't running the day we arrived), but the Attic is right in the middle of downtown - perfect for walking visitors! Thanks!

We really enjoyed staying at the cottage! It was very open yet cozy and spacious enough for the 2 of us (kids stayed with relatives!) My favorite part was the beautiful view and lovely deck where I did my morning yoga and meditation. I also sat out in the chairs to take in the gorgeous sunshine!
We were able to rest and relax, which was just what we needed!

Perfect location for families
Posted: May 8, 2015 |
I stayed 2 nights at The Attic and it was perfect for us! Central location, you can walk to the stores, walk to the waterfront, it is very convenient and offers a nice view too! It is quiet, the little coffee place in front offers a very good selection of healthy food and you can always use the fully equipped kitchen (very good with kids). I would recommend this place anytime as even if it's raining, you have enought space for your family, a nice tv, and museums are quite close too. Usefuls tips around town are provided and we used them all !

Kitschy waterfront cottage

Pleasant kitschy waterfront cottage, much better/larger than the photographs would indicate. We had a short, but great, stay in Haines. The cottage is centrally located so you can walk everywhere in town. There are no laundry facilities but that wouldn't stop us from staying here again.

overall the place was nice. The only thing was the smell when we came in and the hot water... We were a bit disappointed that it was not a wood fire place but your fireplace was romantic... the view was wonderful and it was quiet. It is a very nice cottage and it was clean. I would recommend this place to friends...

We enjoyed our stay at the Cottage. Very clean and private, with a nice view. The owner was very nice and worked hard to fix the hot water and to make our stay comfortable. To make it more suitable for the advertised 4, I suggest adding a closet, armoire, dresser, or inside hooks for the folks staying on the living room couch, which mattress also not very comfortable, even placed on the floor. I also suggest more and warmer blankets for those who don't like sleeping with the heat on high. Overall, very satisfied, thank you!

We loved staying here
Posted: Sep 26, 2014 |
We were challenged a bit to locate the place, but what a find! A cute little cottage recently remodeled with exposed log beams in the living room, a dining area, kitchen wall, nice bedroom with a very comfy bed, and little bathroom. The view from the living room is of the inlet with water and jagged snow-capped mountains in the background. We loved staying here. The burly bearded neighbor is a kick! Get him talking about the history, and he won't stop!

The most amazing part of our stay at the cottage was the view from the deck, overlooking the bay and mountains in the distance. We enjoyed watching the cruise ships cruise by on their way to other larger ports. Only one smaller cruise ship comes into Haines on Wednesdays, which adds to the towns charm. Also enjoyed seeing whales in the bay from the cottage. The cottage was clean with a well equipped kitchen. We rode off the Alaska State Ferry with our bicycles and it was easy to see the town with bicycles, and the downtown location of the cottage is convenient. The owner of the cottage was very helpful and accommodating with all our needs and questions. We'll hopefully be able to come back to Haines and the cottage some day!

Walking distance to everything. Amazing views from back porch. Nice comfortable interior with full kitchen for us to cook the fish we caught. Couldn't have asked for more.

Clean and with amazing view.

We were pleasantly surprised how awesome the cottage was, it was clean and with amazing view. It was recommended to us so we will recommend it to anyone who will travel that way. I wouldn't recommend it to people with pets as some people have allergies like us. The cottage is not an ideal with people with more advance disabilities, no access for wheelchairs.

My stay at The Attic was great. The location, cleanliness and amenities were fantastic. There were multiple times during our stay that my wife or I was pleasantly surprised to find extras available that normally are not found in hotels. My daughter wanted to stay longer. The next time we are in Haines, I won't look anywhere but The Attic for a place to stay.

The Attic was perfect

Thank you for all your help getting to and finding the Attic when we arrived in Haines late at night. We ended up having a wonderful time there. The Attic was perfect. We enjoyed exploring Haines very much. Thanks again.

We thoroughly liked the stay at the attic. We have stayed on three previous occasions. We love the location and the privacy and the views. All things aside it was an excellent stay and we are looking forward to our next stay in 2015

We loved our stay at the Attic.

We loved our stay at the Attic. It was central to all of our activities and the accommodations were excellent. There was a magnificent view from all the windows and the kitchen was well equipped. Being above a business was also good as it was very quiet at night. I would recommend the Attic to anyone visiting Haines, AK. If we ever get a chance to travel to Haines again, the Attic will be our first choice. I also want to thank the booking agent, Reservations By Randa. She also booked our ferryboat connections between Juneau and Haines.
