These vacation rentals make for an ideal getaway, without being too far from the action. A five-minute boat ride across the narrows will put you in downtown Ketchikan. There are many convenient places to moor your boat in Ketchikan. Most moorage locations are located within one block of shopping centers, restaurants, grocery stores, movie rentals, historical attractions, museums, and art galleries.

Charter fishing guests can depart daily for their Alaska fishing experience from the home's private float. Either rent a boat and enjoy the many nearby fishing and crabbing locations, or take a guided fishing charter.

Many guests opt to go charter fishing for one or more days, and then spend the remainder of their Alaska fishing trip in the rental boat fishing on their own.

Upon Arrival
All guests will be picked up at Ketchikan International Airport by Rick, or the local Water Taxi service. Upon pickup you will be transported directly to our private dock. Once you have arrived we will orientate you on the house, and property. We will also be happy to point out the location of open moorage stalls, the fish processing facility, grocery stores, tackle shops, and local restaurants. Rental boat clients will be orientated on the boat's safety and fishing equipment.

Water Taxi Service
A local Water Taxi service is available to and from downtown Ketchikan. This can be useful for guests who decide to take a day off from fishing. The diehards can take the rental boats out fishing, while their friends can sleep in, and catch a taxi into town.

Self Guided Fishing Guests
Self guided anglers can rent a boat and enjoy the many nearby fishing and crabbing locations. Many guests opt to go charter fishing for one or more days, and then spend the remainder of their Alaska fishing trip in the rental boat fishing on their own. By starting out with a guided fishing charter guests get a chance to learn some fishing techniques before trying it on their own.

Fish Processing
Professional fish processing is located on the Ketchikan side of Tongass Narrows. Drop your fish off each day and have it cleaned, filleted, frozen, and vacuumed packed. Upon departure you can take your catch with you, or arrange to have it shipped to your door via Fed Ex. For those that would like to process their own fish limited freezer space is available.

Cook Your Catch
In addition to a full kitchen each house comes with a gas grill, and a crab cooker. A little Chief Smoker can also be made available. Relax on the deck overlooking the water while cooking your catch on the grill.
