Top Ward Lake Hotel Reviews

My Place Hotel - Ketchikan, AK

10/10 Excellent

"Great location - can walk from the ferry if needed / not too much gear. Great grocery store and deli food steps away. Friendly staff."

The Landing Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and quiet, the bed and pillows comfortable, and the amenities were fine. It would have been nice to have 2 bathrobes instead of just one, but we got by ok. We ate in both the pub and diner and had really good food and service in both places. We enjoyed our overnight stop in beautiful Ketchikan very much! The trick to enjoying coastal Alaska (like anywhere worth seeing) is to not look too closely at prices."

Nestled At the Top of famous Totem pole Parks Enjoyable, comfortable house

10/10 Excellent

"Great little place, came out on a work trip. The owner was super helpful to get us an extra day on such short notice. Great location if you want to go sit out on the water. It is the perfect distance from town."

Two Bedroom Apartment with Vaulted Ceilings

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was wonderful and our host was very friendly. She was easily accessible through texts, gave clear and easy to follow directions, and the house was well stocked for our needs. The access to a washer/ dryer was great, but the dryer had a few minor quirks that took extra time. The tv did too, but it was not a big deal. All-in-all, it was extremely comfortable place and we’d absolutely love to stay again!!"

Diamond House, cozy home in a park-like setting

10/10 Excellent

"This cozy, comfy home was the perfect spot for my husband, dog and I to stay during our 3-day weekend trip to Ketchikan. Check-in and checkout instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the hosts were very easy to communicate with. The bed was super comfy, and we enjoyed our evenings relaxing in the cozy living room! Our dog loved the open yard to run and chase his frisbee around in. There was good parking space for our truck, and we felt welcomed and safe in the neighborhood. Will definitely remember this spot for future trips back to Ketchikan! "

Picture Perfect on the Water with large deck for spotting whales, eagles & more!

10/10 Excellent

"Amber and Mike are wonderful host! Very responsive to messages. The home is clean and in an amazing location. Humpback whales traveled past the house as well. It was an amazing stay; we did not want to leave. Advice: Avocados are 2.50 so if you eat as many as we do I suggest you buy some (not ripe) to bring with you. If you need ice go to Fish From Trish (she has great seafood for sale). Visit as many of the local lakes as you can. They are all beautiful and worth the hike. "

Seaside Garden House Located Near The Marina.

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for an Alaskan vacation! Seaside Garden House exceeded our expectations in every way...It is better than shown in photos and very spacious for our family of 5 adults. Our hosts were wonderful and had thought of everything we might need. Beautiful location on the waterfront, with easy access to town. We have stayed at many vrbo rentals and this is one of our favorites!"
