Cozy unit
The Stowaway is a cozy unit with a great location - steps away from the marina, park, and downtown, but tucked in an alley with little traffic. The unit is well furnished and equipped with helpful amenities but noise from the upstairs space (footsteps and all water use whooshing through the pipes) is really noisy - particularly at 2:00 a.m. We did not use the car, bikes, or kayaks. Use of the car would have been nice, as there is virtually no public or rental car transportation available at the airport (we had a friend pick us up) but the process was unclear on how to get the keys. The welcome letter in the unit is outdated and needs to be replaced with current property management contacts. If you are a heavy sleeper, all other aspects of this rental were fantastic and Sitka was incredible.

Well decorated with a nautical vibe. Hosts were very responsive and respectful of privacy. Great perks including a washer and dryer (key after kayaking and getting soaked with ocean water), a car for local transportation and to/from airport. The kayaks were ready to go at the water. We did not use the bikes that were also included. Plenty of space for the 4 of us while visiting our adult son (pull out and 2 bedrooms) with all kitchenware and linens we needed. Great location with amazing scenery and so much to do in Sitka

Very Pleasant Stay!
My brother and I had a great time staying at this property. Rachel and her team were very communicative and helpful. The place was spotless and welcoming. Comfortable beds, accommodating kitchen, and very close to the harbor we fished from. Having use of a vehicle was an awesome bonus! I highly recommend staying here!
