Welcome to the Driftwood House! This home sits atop of a hill across the street from the Pacific Ocean with breathtaking views of the water, surrounding islands and Mt Edgecumbe Volcano and is the perfect place to escape and unwind with family and loved ones. With comfortable furnishings and a wall of ocean facing windows you will truly be captivated.
Enter the newly remodeled home with the large open spaces to spread out and create a cozy comfortable vacation.
The spacious open kitchen has a large island that family and friends can gather around to spend quality time together. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials to prepare your feast, and we get you started with basic seasonings, tea and coffee. The dining area has seating for 8 guests and the panoramic views out the windows are spectacular as you prepare and dine on your meals.
There are two comfortable seating options for visiting and relaxing. The tv viewing area has a large smart tv for downloading your streaming service, and an incredibly comfortable sectional for spreading out and watching your favorite tv show or movie with the ambiance of an electric fireplace. The sitting/game area overlooks the expansive deck and pristine front row seat to watch the fishing boats, look for whales, sea lions and eagles and just be mesmerized by the ocean.
The Driftwood House is a great choice for building lasting Alaskan Memories!
Four of us stayed to celebrate my 50th. The views were stunning and the house was spotless! We are happy we rented a car to get back & forth to town. The kitchen had absolutely everything you could need for a family meal. The host even provided coffee & snacks upon our arrival. Donât hesitate-totally worth it!
My family gathered here for 5 days over Christmas. The weather was bad so we stayed inside a lot. The unit was very accommodating with several different gathering spots. The large dining table allowed for multiple puzzles and games to be played. There was also a large island in the kitchen, a reading area and a living room with a large, comfortable sectional. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. I highly recommend The Driftwood and would stay here again.
We were in Sitka visiting family who live there. This was not our first visit. We paid over 6k for a week stay, which is on the upper end of vacay house pricing. The house was in a nice location off the main road. This rental is NOT the entire house, just the upstairs. The downstairs is occupied. This was not clear in the listing.
The house, in general, was clean and reasonable. A twin bed broke from typical use. We were charged for this. We were also accused of taking items from the house, which is very untrue. Who steals an end table?
I would advise caution in choosing this home due to that factor. Otherwise, the house was fine.
Spacious open floor plan for creating memories with family and friends, all while watching the ocean activity from the large picture windows or step out onto the expansive deck and relax with coffee in the morning or your favorite beverage in the evening.
