This beautifully upgraded three-bedroom apartment with granite kitchen, and stainless appliances is an easy to keep clean, pet friendly space featuring laminate flooring throughout. The unique design of this property joins three dwelling units with a three-bay garage, so no units share any walls. Thunder Mountain Place is a ground floor unit. There is no charge for off street parking. Garage parking is not available at this time.

One bedroom features a private, half bathroom and a King sized bed. The other two bedrooms have queen beds.

We will strive to provide the best vacation experience for you and hope to earn your five star review! Expectations should be limited to what is promised here, and reviews should reflect how we did with these promises. Before submitting your review, please remember to base it on the following criteria and what was promised to be provided for the price paid as follows:

Easy check-in process – You'll be able to self-check in. Kelli will give you check-in details prior to arrival, including a lock box code. You'll be able to access the rental at your leisure after check-in time, at 4pm. We offer early check-in options, if it's available a couple days prior to your arrival for $25-$50, depending on your arrival time.

Great Communication – Kelli is known to be responsive to guests before, during, and after their stay. You can expect prompt responses to your questions. She'll respond to web site messages as soon as she can.

Clean Accommodations – Your private apartment should be sparkling clean.

Great Mendenhall Valley Location – It's a 10 minute walk from the city bus stop and three miles from the famous Mendenhall Glacier which you can get to by car, bike (available for rent at this property) or walking on a paved bike path or gravel trail. You can take the bus for two miles and walk the third mile. This is not a downtown Juneau property. Downtown Juneau is substantially more expensive than the Mendenhall Valley, so this location for the price should not be compared to that of downtown. If you want to be downtown, and don't want to take a 45 minute bus ride to go 16 miles, then this space is not for you.

Accurate Description of the space - I try to make continuous improvements when guests make suggestions and do my best to keep the changes updated and published. If I missed something please let me know, so I can update the information. If you are missing something you were counting on, please let me know immediately, so I can try to provide it for your stay.

Great Value – Juneau is expensive, especially during peak season, and while this is a more affordable option, we understand that it can seem expensive. Part of the value is the ability to rent for only one night and have an additional person. The price fluctuates depending on the season. We have to charge more when the business is there, so that we can afford to have it vacant for long, slow periods.

Have a fantastic trip!

Gold Medal Week 2024
Gold Medal 2024 stay. It was a good stay for us. It was nice having 3 bedrooms with all good beds. Once we did the drive 2-3 times it was a good drive. Like most things, things didn't go as planned, but I was super happy with how quickly the response was with the host. When I had a question I sent a text and got answers for my questions

Great Stay
The property was as described and very clean. It had everything we needed for our stay. Kelli was quick to communicate and made sure we had everything we needed. The house is spacious and was plenty of room for two adults and two teenagers. If you're considering a house in the area, this is a great one.
