The owner was great to work with and the room was exactly as advertised. It worked great for our stay! We also rented her car on Turo which made getting to and from the airport easy. Thanks again for all your help!
The hostess is very nice. The only problem the secure code was incorrect. But she was available to help us. The driving direction is very good. There is no address to the house.
Chose this apartment as an alternative to more commercial lodging nearby on my way to Katmai for a backpacking adventure. The listing included a hot tub which was a key factor in choosing the location, but upon arrival and fruitless searching for the hottub, was told there is not one and there was a listing error. We were invited to use the family sauna in the main house area but that was not a great option for us. The apartment is also located under the main home where a large family lives, so the room was not quiet until all kids went to bed. I believe this was alluded to in the listing, but it cannot be overstated that this is not a quiet room.
Finally, the ceiling fan in the bedroom did not work and it was quite hot in the room with no window and no air movement. Would likely choose another option for a future trip.
I meant to post this much sooner but internet connectivity is very limited in the region And I didnât have an opportunity at the time, and am just now recalling I hadnât yet posted.
10/10 We were in town for a family friends funeral. We thought we'd minimize the hassle by renting a place instead of staying with them. When we booked the stay, we were honestly only expecting a couple bed cots, but the place had a full kitchen, living room area, bathroom with immediate hot water and a very large/comfortable bed. The snacks were a very nice touch. I'd recommend anybody to stay there, especially considering how kind the host was when we had to make sure we found the correct place. 10/10
Very clean property, check in and out was easy however the listing stated a grill and a hot tub, the grill was not located by the unit and after getting a return message the next morning we were alerted that the grill was on the upper deck next to the private property sign on the stairs. Spent a lot of money at grocery store to grill out and was not able to.
Your hosts, Tana and Adam, are amazing as is this property if you are lucky enough to find yourself in King Salmon AK. Quiet and secluded and with all modern conveniences, another great stay. Thank you.
When we arrived at The Grotto check-in was easy. Tana had contacted me days ahead of our arrival with all the check-in information as well as local information. The apartment was just what we needed for our stay in King Salmon/Katmai National Park. The apartment was clean, there was plenty of sleeping space, and we made us of the kitchen to cook some meals. Everything was easy to find in the apartment such as pots and pans, utensils, coffee pot, etc. Tana even has an iPhone that can be used during the stay because cell phone reception with anything but the local Alaskan carrier doesnât work. I would stay in The Grotto again if I were ever to return to King Salmon. Great little apartment!
Tana's place was perfect for my needs. It was spacious, clean and welcoming. The bed was super comfortable and the extras like snacks, coffee etc was a really nice touch. The host was responsive and helpful during my stay. It was very easy to get a taxi to and from the airport. I will definitely book again.
Great little place to stay. Set up really well and the hosts are amazing. Easy process and they are really helpful. Place was nice and clean and had everything we needed.
