Located on the mountainside, facing the ocean and Mt. Edgecumbe
Volcano, Old Sitka Rocks Suite is a lower level 1 bedroom apartment,
perfect for a couple and one additional person.
Newly renovated in Spring of 2007, it features all the expected
amenities of a vacation home, including comfort and accessibility to
shopping as well as our many historical and natural sites of interest.
The “Old Sitka Rocks”, are right below the apartment and provides for
one of the most picturesque and photographed views in all of Sitka.
The “Old Sitka Rocks” actually are seven small islands that are a
magnet for bird life and marine mammals. Just stepping out your
door, it is a rare time that Bald Eagles are not soaring overhead,
perched in the tall Sitka Spruce, or swooping low over the water in
search of a meal. The Pelagic Cormorant and a variety of waterfowl
and gulls are seen on “the rocks” almost continuously. Marine
mammals that frequent the rocks area include Humpback Whales, Sea
Lions, and Sea Otters. The local commercial fishing boats either
pass by or fish the area daily.

The apartment has a separate entrance and is located in the home of
