AK Fireweed House B&B Testimonials |
| |
Your place here was just THE perfect finale to
the "Alaskan leg" of our trip. The breakfast
was the best of the whole trip! You have a beautiful
setting here - every detail was just right. We're
just sorry we didn't have more time to visit with
you and your family - next time! Thanks for everything.

A week in a sunny rain forest was a tonic! The
brilliant stars and the northern lights above the
mountains out the window, the charm and coziness
of the house and the warmth of your hospitality
made our stay in SE Alaska a restful and rejuvenating
experience. Thank you. Boston, MA

Thank you for sharing your beautiful "cabin"
with us. It was so wonderful to be pampered by such

Felt a warmth and sense of peace here right away!
Your family, your home and surroundings made our
stay delightful, a contentment that couldn't be
measured as we shared quality time with the family.
There is a magic here and your B&B sprinkled
God's natural, real happiness our way. Thank you
for your warm hospitality.

Your attention to detail made for a lovely experience
at AK Fireweed House. I knew that I had landed in
the right place when we were met with smiles, enthusiasm,
and a plate of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

What a wonderful place this house has been for
us! From the terry bathrobes to the hostess baskets
in the rooms - you have thought of everything! The
space and amenities helped immensely while we prepared
for our daughter's wedding. Special, special thanks
for the "loans" from your kitchen. Only
problem is we have been SO spoiled, it will be really
hard to return home to a "normal" life.
You have ruined us for ever staying elsewhere! We
will see you again on our next visit.

What an experience Juneau was! Your hospitality,
great care and attention to detail made this one
of our "Top Five" greatest vacations.
We will definitely return. The breakfasts made our
stay most enjoyable. You both really know how to
bring the best out of all your guests at the breakfast
table. We will always remember our stay and keep
your family close to our hearts. You've made us
feel at home. We give you five stars!

Thank you for making our honeymoon a very special
one. This has definitely been the best vacation
we've ever had, and that is largely due to AK Fireweed
House. Not only were the accommodations absolutely
wonderful, but the food was also delicious, the
view was beautiful, and most of all, your hospitality
and kindness were warm and inviting. We have enjoyed
staying here so much that we don't want to leave.
We will miss you all!
Houston, Texas |
|
Thank you for your warm hospitality. This Guest
House was our family home for a few days. In fact,
it was better than home because we didn't have to
make the beds! Our kids had fun and so did we. It
was a special treat to be invited into your home
for extraordinary breakfast meals.

It has been great to "homestead" here
with our three children and 2.5 grandchildren. It's
a dream come true; returning to Alaska with the
family and exposing them to as much of your beautiful
area as possible. Your cheery dispositions, wonderful
breakfasts and helpful guidance certainly offset
some of the rain. We missed sunshine, but loved
the cool, comfortable temperature. And the G-kids
enjoyed playing with Elanor and Hugh!!

We enjoyed our stay in your lovely cabin this
week so very much. It was one of the highlights
of our Alaskan adventure. And thank you too for
the delicious breakfasts. Every morning was a treat!
South Dennis, Maine |

Although we have been nowhere else in Juneau,
I can see no reason to even try to compare a stay
anywhere else. Why would we want to try to improve
upon this?! The spaciousness and lovely d?or of
the cabin made it so pleasant for our family. I
don't think it will be too likely that we will go
camping after all this luxury in the middle of the
wilderness. And, Jeff, thank your for the superb
breakfasts, and to you both for all the small touches
- snacks, toiletries, etc. Our stay couldn't have
been nicer. We'll be back in a few days·editor's
note - they did return!)
Mill Valley,

As you know, we were thrilled with the cabin.
Your outstanding accommodations made our move and
transition to Juneau so much easier for our family.
Thank you for welcoming each and every member of
our family and for making us feel at home.
We enjoyed every one of our 30+ days here.

The past week at the Cabin has been a wonderful
experience for us. Thank you so much for being great
hosts. Winter tourism in Juneau has great potential!
Look forward to coming back again.

We really enjoyed ourselves during our week here
on our honeymoon! The privacy and all the little
extras were extremely appreciated. Breakfast was
spectacular-every morning, so beautifully garnished,
we wanted to photograph each course, and most importantly,
oh so very delicious! You are warm, wonderful, hospitable
people. You made our Alaskan stay perfect! We'll
recommend you to everyone we know!
Rathdrum,

You have redefined the word "hospitality".
In all of our travels we have never felt more at
home than at AK Fireweed. You have made our first
days in Alaska an unforgettable experience. And
then - there is the other "B" in B&B
- Jeff's breakfasts!! They were truly a dining experience.
All in all-you get 5 Stars! It can't get much better
than this! We will be back.

This is our second stay in Glacier View Room.
The reason we came back (and will continue to) is
because of the perfect blend of warmth and professionalism
that Jeff and Danith employ for their guests. The
little details do not go unnoticed by weary travelers
such as us-the fluffy towels and bathrobes (a first
for us in a B&B), the fresh lemon-water, fluffy
pillows, crisp sheets, and especially the hairdryers.
It's so wonderful to be able to experience the 5-star
hotel amenities with the personal touch of breakfast
and conversation. Thanks again-we'll be back and
so will many of our friends!
Washington,
D. C. |

Thank you for the peace, comfort and food! Both
of us have stayed at B&Bs all over the U.S.
and have never experienced such elegance and serenity.
You truly provide the most wonderful environment-we
will always remember the AK Fireweed House and will
recommend it to anyone and everyone coming to Alaska!

Thank you for your hospitality and your special
brand of TLC. My stay was a delightful experience.
You brought special joy to my "hopefully"
first visit to Alaska. Jeff - your breakfasts were
definitely gourmet. Thanks again for sharing your
home with many in your top-rated bed and breakfast

so much. You made our stay even more special. The

hope to see you all again soon.
Victorville,
California |
|
Thank you so much for your warm welcome and hospitality.
You both seem to understand how weary travelers
feel. We both wish we could spend a week here instead
of one night. Our room was so appealing with all
of your lovely artistic touches. We will pass on
to our travel agent and our friends our warmest
recommendations.
Australia |

Thanks for a wonderful three nights stay with
you! You certainly look after your guests well.
You thought of everything and spoiled us too! Our
room was very comfortable - felt more like home
than anywhere we've stayed. I, too, loved your bathroom.
The food and fellowship was special. You certainly
have the knack for a B&B - you have all of the
special touches that make everything so enjoyable.
Many thanks and your children are precious.
Douglasville, Georgia |

What a beautiful night as our first in Juneau
- and first at a B&B. We loved the tub (both
last night and this morning) and the view , and
the d?or and the robes and the breakfast and the
dogs, and the coffee outside the door and the jelly
beans and the music, and the conversation - and
just being in ALASKA!!! You both are an inspiration
to us - north to our future!! Thanks for being here
for us. We were very lucky to be here.

Celebrating our 50th anniversary here with our

warmth shines through.

will not hesitate to stay with you again.

We love your place. Your hospitality and generous

Thank you and good luck!

What a wonderful way to end our time in Alaska.
It was such a gift to be part of your home for a
couple of days·e felt welcome, comfortable,
and cared for right away. The place is beautiful,
but your warmth and special touches are what made
it perfect. I hope I'll be able to send more folks
your way each summer·it won't be hard for
me to be an advocate! Enjoy the quieter fall and
winter to come. We'll look forward to returning
sometime.

special treats. The Northern Lights were great!

The service was tremendous. The breakfast meals
were fabulous, and your warm welcome was sincere.
We felt the love and pride that you both have for
each other and for your B&B customers. While
it is true that we all start as customers at your
B&B home, we all leave as friends and future
"returning" friends for our next visit.
Thank you so very much with helping to make those
"last minute" travel plans (boats and
plan rides). We both wished that we had more time
to visit with you.
Elmhurst, Illinois |
|
We had a very nice stay! Our daughter loved it

have to leave today, wish we could stay longer.
We're also sorry we never saw the bear that has
been coming up to the house!
Sudbury,
Massachusetts |

Being greeted by a black bear cub is not an everyday
occurance! Being greeted by two warm and loving
children is something that is always cherished.
I sense the same warm and nurturing home that my
wife and I strive for. Thank you.
