This cozy cottage was the PERFECT home base when we visited my son while he was working in Skagway. SInce everything in town is within walking distance, the location next to the airport was ideal. It was a short walk into town, and, when we left for home, an even shorter walk with our bags back to the airport.
Why the bags only on our way BACK to the airport?????
Because the charm of this property is matched only by the charm of it's lovely owner, Denise. Before out trip, she was always quick to reply to any messages or questions, and, since I was unsure of the distance with bags, she met us at the airport in her too cute VW van. She walked us to the property, giving us a free insight into the town and her cottage, and then she walked back and drove our luggaege over for us, However, it was so close, we didn't really need the transport! Denise checked on us regularly during our stay, and even invited us to a workshop she was going to since it had been raining so much. I am oddly proud to say we were her first guests, and there weren't even any of the "growing pains" or mishaps that usually come along with being a "first".
If you are going to visit Skagway for more than a cruise stop, and I suggest you do so and get to know the sweet locals in this beautiful area, this is the PERFECT place!!!!!
