The Tongass Treehouse sits about a hundred feet up in the lush rainforest canopy. Start your day with coffee while listening to eagles and whale watching from the living room or the deck, enjoy Juneau's best offerings - like remote glacier hikes - all less than 15 minutes away, then return to luxurious comforts to relax at home and watch the sunset as flying squirrels and eagles play next to the deck, and wildlife like orca pass by just offshore.

The Otter Den is a separate studio from upstairs

The space
This is a studio with a full-size modern kitchen and all-new bathroom with radiant floor heating, and opens to a spacious 24-foot balcony with stunning ocean view. The Otter Den is down about 3 stories of steps from the parking area.

The Otter Den is a completely separate space from the Tongass Treehouse Orcaview Cabin. The door is even on a separate level.

The only shared space is separate laundry area with outside door access.

Guest access
You have the entire Tongass Treehouse Otter den to yourself, access to a free shared laundry room with two washers and dryers, and lots of nearby trails!

Other things to note
We are high up on a cliff, without direct beach access in front of the house. We access a secluded beach via a short walk down a beautiful trail.

We do not have children and our home is not child-proofed, so if you have a young child you'd like to join you, we confirm you’re aware of this at time of booking.

We do have cats that live in the home part time - our allergen mitigation includes vacuuming daily with a HEPA-filtered vacuum, and a Winix C545 HEPA filter. We have had a number of guests with severe cat allergies stay and tell us they had no symptoms.

We are in the forest, and wildlife and occasional bugs are a fact of life here that we cannot control.

We ask that everyone who books is okay with stairs, as there a number of them leading down to the home

Neighbourhood highlights

This is in a rural area along a bluff. The neighbors are incredibly friendly, and there is ample walking access to hiking trails and miles of beach you'll have to yourselves. We've never seen other people at the beach!

My work: Scientist
I'm obsessed with: Wildlife, gardening and and free diving
Our home is right in the harbor we both grew up. We are childhood sweethearts and have spent our days hiking, fishing and diving all over Juneau. We are avid cooks and love reading. Like many kids in remote areas we couldn't wait to leave, but after traveling the world and living down south we really missed home. As soon as we saw the Tongass Treehouse we knew we had to make it our home. :) It has everything we love about Alaska!
