My rating for this is somewhere between "average" and "good". Like some other reviewers I found the hosts a little distant but on the whole its a decent enough place to stay. The rooms were nicely furnished and had all the amenities you need. On arrival in Skagway there is a local dial a bus service which will take you... more

The historic house is located centrally and easily accessed to the ferry. Our host Jan & her team were most helpful. The breakfast was quite adequate and we have no qualms about recomending to our friends. Jules & jenny T New Zealand more

I expected more from a B&B. This one has very cold owners running it. Nothing is really done to make you feel welcome, cold effieciency! It is clean and the room was nice. but I would not stay again. The "aroma of baking" that I read somewhere is non existant. The breakfast was lousy. We went out all but one... more

I guess that i expected more from this B&B because of all of the write-ups and history. It was nice enough, but there was just something missing. The food was not very good - we weren't too impressed with the rye cookies they had put out and the breakfast (bland muffins, cereal and yogurt) wasn't too great. The room was... more

Very nice!

I enjoyed a very nice night here, small B&B, very homey. They had a very tasty breakfast in the morning, I really enjoyed the homemade muffins that I was smelling from my room. The room was nice and clean, as well as the bathroom. They had nice amenities available, and more if needed provided you called the front desk. It... more

Nice B&B

The B&B is at the edge of downtown. You'll still be extremely close to downtown and can easily avoid the cruise ship tourists if you need to. The whole town is tiny - there is no drug store or theatre in town. The rooms are clean and spacious. There is usually no one in the lobby, but the staff can... more

We had a wonderful time and loved the owners. They had new private bathrooms. The hand made Quilts, decorations, and Antiques made it very homey. They had an extensive selection of books on the local history of Skagway and the White House. The food was good. I would definitely stay there again. more

The White house is located in a quiet neighborhood that is within 8-10 blocks of the harbor. "downtown" begins 3 blocks from the B & B. From the outside it appears to be simple, but when you enter the front foyer with the highly polished wood floors and the beautiful antiques you begin to see what a delightful place it... more
