    Beautiful B&B in Ketchikan

    October 29, 2012

    The Alderhouse is a fantastically clean place to stay and Alyce is a very talented chef. She goes out of her way to make her guests feel at home and is very knowledgeable about Ketchikan—she knows everything from the best places to see the local bears to the best places to park downtown. Her breakfasts are out of this world.

    Outstanding in every way!

    Alderhouse is a lovely, beautifully furnished, immaculately clean and very comfortable home. The beds, linens and quilts are wonderful as are the thoughtful amenities provided for guests. Alyce is a most gracious host, and offered us directions, suggestions, and great information. She is also a marvelous cook. Her eggs benedict are the finest I have ever eaten! I have stayed in many b&bs in the US and Canada. Alderhouse is at the very top of my list. I hope to return to Alaska and will definitely return to Alderhouse.

    Only place to stay in Ketchikan!

    June 18, 2012

    We stayed with Alyce Bousley for three nights in her beautiful appointed and comfortable home. She is a fabulous host, gourmet breakfast cook and gracious story teller. The Alderhouse is a great example of what we hoped to find in a B&B: chance to meet "real" people in their homes, great food and comfortable lodging. Alyce delivers it all! Highly recommended.

    Fantastic!

    September 01, 2008

    Alderhouse is simply wonderful. Great, welcoming hostess (Alyce), lovely filling breakfasts and good location. Nice quiet area so able to sleep very, very well. Super clean too. Loved our too short stay! Since I am a quilter I loved seeing the many gorgeous quilts too. All in all, a perfect place to stay.

    The Best in town!

    August 26, 2008

    My stay was a delightful respite from the rainy and gloomy weather! Alyce brought a ray of sunshine into our stay with her gracious greeting, beautifully presented breakfast and soothing (with local flavor) accommodation both in the bedroom as well as in the gathering room!
