Great Memories
My family and I enjoyed a lovely 5 day stay visiting the sites of Sitka. The Hughes house was a highlight … mornings watching the ocean out the kitchen window and eagles flying by was special. Close to a grocery store and downtown nearby made for easy visiting of the Sitka activities. Wonderful memories of our stay at Hughes home!

Sitka family vacation
We loved the house and area. Our family did not rent a car which was fine for us but you have to be willing to walk because town was about a mile and a quarter from town. One day we rented bikes and scooters. Very fun. Would recommend this house and area to all interested in the outdoors

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From check-in to check-out this vacation rental was perfect for our family vacation. Property owners were responsive and helpful when we reached out due to weather related flight changes. House was well kept and clean, located right on the water and walkable into town. Everything we needed was available for cooking or bbq including condiments and spices. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

Reviewer Comments: This beautiful home was clean and well furnished. We espeically liked that there were multiple siting areas and game room that promoted the comfort of our large group aged 2-72 years of age. The large grassy yard and beauriful view was appreciated as we were gifted with 3 days of clear sunny skies during our stay.

Great house!
Great house, very clean and well appointed. This advertisement is actually for a 3 bedroom 1.5 bath house. not a a 5 bedroom 2.5 bath. There is an additional charge which opens more rooms and an additional bathroom for you. Host was unwilling to open the rest of the home to us after arrival, even though we were willing to pay the additional fee to accommodate our large group. As a result, we were somewhat cramped and had to have one guest sleep on the couch. I would recommend the house, but the listing is misleading.
