Sitka, Alaska Float House

People often say they've come to Alaska and lived the dream, but they haven't really lived the Alaska dream until they've spent the night in solitude in a hidden bay aboard an Alaska floathouse-When they've sat in awe as the sun kisses the sea with waves of red, gold and purple, woken to the cry of an eagle hunting for its prey, and felt the power of a humpback whale's call in the mist-filled night, then, perhaps they can say they've lived the Alaskan dream...

For real solitude and an up-close Alaskan experience, nothing compares to an Alaskan Float-house

Shown here in its winter moorage, the Caboose is unique in that it can be moved from bay to bay, within a ten mile radius.

With an open layout, designed to house a large group, the Caboose can sleep up to ten people in a bunkhouse fashion and offers an opportunity to see the quiet beauty of Alaska that few experience.

Nothing goes better with your morning coffee than an Alaskan sunrise, a few visiting otter, and an occasional burst of air from a humpback whale passing through.

The cabin is heated with an oil cook stove and has a small gas bar-b-que. There is also a marine toilet and a camp shower.

The cabin is usually located just 20 minutes from downtown Sitka. and requires the use of a boat to get to Sitka. If you do not have your own boat, there is an 18 ft. boat that is available for renting.

And, if you'd like to combine your stay with a private fishing, hunting or sightseeing excursion, owner, Jim Phillips is a well-known hunting, fishing and sightseeing guide, registered with the Alaska Department of fish and Game.
