Wedding Weekend in Juneau
We really enjoyed our stay. The view was amazing, just as the property title says. The house was very spacious and comfortable. The location was excellent for our activities in Juneau and Auke Bay. Conveniently located on main road but never noticed traffic or noise. The soothing sound of the river was what we remembered. Walkable to a great trail system. Bedrooms were on the first floor and living area was on the second (for the best views), so you do have to climb steps. Extra half bath upstairs was useful. Easy reservation and check-in with very accommodating host. Our whole group agreed that we would love to stay here again!

Family wedding in Juneau
What a great location for the River House. Hiking along the river across the bridge. Hike down a bit and you can see Mendenhall Glacier. We followed trails all the way down to the nature center, saw a frisky black bear in the yard and made a bunch of meals for the family. Our daughter and her sweetheart got married during our stay and Juneau did not disappoint!

Couldn’t ask for a more iconic Juneau experience.
The view alone is worth staying at Juneau River House. The mountains overlooking the Mendenhall River looked different every day depending on the sunlight and clouds, but always breathtaking. The river itself such a calming presence; a natural white noise machine. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay: comfy beds, plenty of blankets, lots of lounging space in the living room, many tv apps for down time, full modern kitchen for ease of use. We found gold pans in the closet and were able to walk down a little path and pan for gold. If you go across the bridge, there’s a trail that takes you down the river, but it was cut off from other trails by the recent floods. If you’re a rock picker, the beach across the river is FULL of them. We had a lovely time and didn’t want to leave.

Great place!
We had a great time at the Juneau River house! Even though the river flooding at an unheard of level we had a wonderful time. The river stayed out of the house so all was great!

Great family reunion!
We had a wonderful time in Juneau - we booked this house for a family reunion for my wife and sister-in-law who grew up in Juneau. The location was perfect for our our activities - close to Auke Bay and the Mendenhall Glacier. The views from the deck were stunning. It was everything we wanted for our vacation. The owners were quick in responding with any questions. We all wish we were still there!

A piece of heaven
This house is great, especially the setting. Beautiful views & right on the Mendenhall River. It’s close to grocery stores, the airport, Mendenhall Glacier & Auke Bay. Easy 10-15 minute drive to downtown Juneau. The kitchen was adequately supplied. Really the only down side, & only if you have a disability or problem with stairs, is the set of stairs you have to go up to get to the kitchen/living area. There are quite a few steps. Otherwise we highly recommend the Juneau River House. The view alone is worth it. Our family loved it.

Everything was great except for the 14 stairs inside to the upper floor.they had no backing and were slippery. Very dangerous. All the rest was great with great owners who even chopped wood for us.
