Cozy house with beautiful view

Hemlock House was perfect for my stay in Sitka. The house is cozy, beautifully updated and well appointed. Great view of the lake and mountains. Easy ride or walk to town. Nice backyard for children to play. I enjoyed the covered outside patio and backyard deck for morning tea. Paula and Steve were wonderful hosts. Thank you for sharing Hemlock House and the use of a vehicle for my entire stay, which was a great surprise and beyond useful for carting groceries and the grandkids.

The Hemlock House - Alaskan Adventure

Adorable property, close to town, groceries, marina and more. Clean, well stocked, accomodating furnishings and seating for the whole family. Host/Hostess VERY accomodating w/ car arrangments for us to have the car upon arrival and we were able to leave it at the airport at departure. They even provided a dog crate for an unexpected granddog that came along the trip! Highly recommend, we felt right at home.

Great Place!

The house is lovely and very comfortable! Had everything we needed and then some. I love the wall of windows looking out at the lake and mountains. Fabulous! Having the use of the vehicle was a nice bonus. Owners are great to work with. Would absolutely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Clayton

My name is Ali Clayton and I was born and raised in Sitka, Alaska. I have over ten years in the tourism industry, which has led me to some great experiences and opportunities. I currently operate another short-term rental, The Kerr Cedar House - (715757), which was my late grandparents home, and enjoy the opportunity to not only meet new people, but connect with visitors so their experience is truly a one-of-a-kind. There is never a request that I wont give my best, so don't hesitate to reach out!

I purchased The Hemlock House in May of 2016 and together my family and I remodeled the house to the cozy and comfortable home it is in now. My Dad is a general contractor, and has been building in Sitka for over 35 years. Without his amazing experience and talent, the house wouldn't be the high quality product it is now. The home's beautiful design and touches came from the help of my Mom, who although you would think is an interior designer, works at the school district. I even need to give credit to my younger brother who stepped in and helped; from pulling nails to hanging sheet rock. This project was definitely a fun experience with my family and I could not have done it without them.
