Ketchikan Bed & Breakfast & Vacation Rentals

Ketchikan is known for its sportfishing (five species of salmon and halibut), native culture, nature trails, and wildlife. We encourage you to visit the Ketchikan Visitors Bureau for activities and calendar of events in Ketchikan. Also visit Ketchikan Chamber of Commerce for more information about our area. (Remember to click your browser's “Back” button to return to our site.) You can also visit the Prince of Wales Chamber of Commerce to learn more about our neighbors on Prince of Wales Island.
Ketchikan is the “First City” in the Innside Passage. It is a two-hour flight on Alaska Airlines north of Seattle, Washington, or 30 hours north of Bellingham, Washington and six hours north of Prince Rupert, British Columbia by the Alaska Marine Highway ferry system. You can use Ketchikan as your hub to many outlying areas and communities including Misty Fjords National Monument, Prince of Wales Island, Hyder, Wrangell and Petersburg, Alaska.
Bed and Breakfast Hosts Our friendly hosts strive to provide comfortable accommodations to make you feel welcome. Breakfasts range from Continental to home-cooked meals. We also have suites and apartments with outfitted kitchens for a self-serve or “cook-your-own” breakfast with breakfast foods provided. Some of our vacation rentals may not provide breakfast. Be sure to check the individual property page for information regarding breakfast at each property.
Transportation is not included to your bed and breakfast or vacation rental, however, some hosts provide transfers. You will need to contact your host upon arrival in town to arrange transportation. Check-in is after 4 p.m. and check-out varies from 11 a.m. to 12 noon. If you need an earlier check-in or later check out, arrangements will need to be made with the host prior to your arrival.

Ketchikan and the airport are separated by water and transportation to the town is by the airport ferry which meets all flights. The Airport Shuttle transports on the ferry from the airport to the town side for $10 per adult passenger. Tongass Water Taxi also meets flights at the airport, weather dependent. You will see their personnel in the baggage claim area or you can call Rich at (907) 225-TAXI.
Taxi cabs are available on the town side at the airport ferry dock and at the Alaska Marine Highway ferry terminal. To homes outside the city, it is usually better to rent a car. If you would like to rent a car, we recommend Alaska Car Rental. They have offices in town and at the airport. They offer courtesy transfers. You can get a discount with Alaska Car Rental if you book online and use my code KRSWANDA or by calling toll free 800-662-0007.
The Ketchikan Gateway Borough Transit System operates three routes within the city limits and along Tongass Avenue as far South as Mile 4/Rotary Beach (GREEN LINE to RED LINE); and North to Mile 10/Totem Bight State Historical Park (BLUE LINE) Monday-Friday only.
