Rain Haven

Fodor's Review:

This one-room floating houseboat is perfect for those in search of a peaceful retreat with up-close wildlife viewing. During July and August, the houseboat is anchored in a remote cove 30 mi south of Wrangell, with canoes and kayaks for access to Anan Creek Wildlife Observatory. It's perfect for couples and small families, with a double bed, a pullout couch, and a single bed. The galley is stocked with staples, and there's a sunny atrium at the stern and a covered deck on the bow. Package stays include transportation from Wrangell. In May, June, and September, the houseboat is docked in town and goes for $85 per night. Owner Marie Oboczky, a former Forest Service naturalist, leads local tours, and is very knowledgeable about the area.
