The best place we've stayed in a long time

The host and owner treated us so well during our visit. She even helped us out when we arrived too late to pick up our rental car. This place is fantastic and extremely clean. We had everything we needed and the kitchen was well stocked. Even had spices for cooking. The view over the cove was spectacular. I would highly recommend this cottage. ov cove

Fantastic property! Like staying at a 5 star hotel but better! Property has everything you need, soft towels, spices for cooking, Alexa, comfortable beds and so much more!

Home Away from Home

We had such a wonderful time staying at The Cove! It was incredibly comfortable and inviting, and Bernie and Cary were so warm and welcoming! Returning each day after a hike or trip to Juneau literally felt like coming home, with comfortable beds, a lovely full kitchen and gorgeous view overlooking the bay. We can't wait to come back again one day!

Excellent stay in Juneau

We stayed 4 nights at The Cove and would definitely come back. It was very clean, had everything we needed, was close to the airport and downtown, and perfect place to stay for Ironman Alaska. Bernadine was extremely nice and was only a text/call away, if needed. Highly recommend 10/10

Paradise Home Away from Home

The cove is hands down the best place to stay in Juneau. Bernie has really thought of everything to make your stay absolutely perfect and it has everything you could ever think of needing to make your stay wonderful. You are surrounded by spectacular views and the area is peaceful and quiet. It was so nice to come back after a day of hiking and relax in the hot tub and then rinse down in the outdoor while surrounded by the rainforest. We hope to be back someday. Thank you Bernie for your impeccable hospitality. You are a wonderful host and it was a pleasure meeting you. We fell in love with your home.place

Lovely two story with a view. Private hot tub, calm color choices, stocked with every amenity, and delightful host. Nicest Vrbo rental yet in a spectacular landscape of mountains, ocean, eagles and whales. Wish we never had to leave! Thank you Bernadette!

Best place ever!

We stayed at Bernadine’s lovely place for 5 nights. It was close to great hiking and Juneau. The view was beautiful, she had EVERYTHING a guest needed and more. The place was decorated with high quality furnishings and Bernadine was so welcoming as a host. She gave us great ideas of things to do and see and checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable. Book this place today and you will not be disappointed.

Amazing experience!

Top notch experience. Beautiful house with exceptional attention to detail. Small touches such as technology (Wi-Fi, Apple TV, Alexa lights and speakers) and homey creature comforts (coffee selection!, mattress ,etc.) made us feel right at home. Not to mention the view. Also, hosts are extremely nice!

The Cove was cozy, inviting, and in a great location. Most important part of our trip to Juneau was the hostess Bernie. She was so welcoming and was available to us in real time. The place was spotless and the attention to details was very much appreciated. We enjoyed the hike in the neighborhood and our walk to the bay every morning. We loved our stay and look forward to our return to The Cove in Juneau.

Just PERFECTION!

The Cove is just perfection doesn't begin to describe the beautiful space that awaits you! Inside and out, this property made the perfect home base for our 5 days in Juneau - we were able to cook, have a fire (inside and out), and enjoy coffee and wine on the deck overlooking the bay. Bernie has though of everything for your stay!

Beautiful

The house and area exceeded our expectations. We were only there for a short 3 days, but had an amazing time. The house was stocked with everything you would need. We loved how the spice cabinet even had a jar labeled"chocolate" with several chocolate candies inside. Lots of small, little touches that made this an ideal base for our adventures. We hope to be back!!

What a fantastic place to stay in Juneau. We had the best time and were in awe of this charming home. We could not have picked a better place to stay. This incredible Cove had everything! Great location and view, well stocked with anything you could possibly need, extremely clean and comfortable and fantastic owners who were equally as charming and wonderful! Thanks Bernadine for an unforgettable experience! We hope to come back very soon! :)
