In 1906, Gold Rush pioneer John Olds built one of the grandest homes in all of Juneau. High on the hillside, with a commanding view of the harbor and downtown area, the house reflects the affluence of the family after the Gold Rush.

Furnished in Mission or Craftsman decor, the rich wood furniture is warm and inviting in the parlor and throughout the home. Limited edition artwork by Alaskan artists are displayed throughout the Inn. Rooms have either maple, fir, or Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, with plush wool area rugs.

Breakfast is served every morning in the dining room around the twelve-foot quarter-sawn oak table. We serve a full and hearty breakfast to get you on your way. Local seafood is often on the menu. Wine and refreshments in the afternoon.

We are conveniently located downtown and adjacent to the State Capitol Building, and it is an easy stroll to all local attractions, office buildings, shops and fine eating establishments. Your stay with us will be a true bed and breakfast experience.
