Our B & B hosts were so gracious to share with us their beautiful home overlooking the ocean. They shared with us things we could do of which we did schedule 2 trips that they recommended and it was fantastic! We especially liked learning from them about the island and it is truly a special place! She had binders full of brochures and articles that were in our room so we could read at our leisure about the area. It is very private and quiet.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at A Channel View. We stayed in the apartment, and it was spotless and newly renovated with a gorgeous view of the water and islands across the channel. It also includes parking and a washer and dryer in the actual unit. Mary and Ron served us a secret pancake recipe with fresh salmonberries that Mary had picked the day before, a smoothie using the same berries and other fruits, and reindeer sausage. It was delicious! The other days, Mary and Ron left us amazing pastries, quiches, yogurt, fresh fruit, bagels, toast, cereal...basically anything you could possibly want for breakfast. They sat down with us and went over maps of Kodiak with tons of tips (restaurants, hikes, beaches, bars, places to get locally-made souvenirs, and more) that made our stay even more enjoyable. Ron even let us borrow his fossil tools for fossil beach and growlers for the brewery! We truly felt like family! During our stay in Kodiak, some highlights were bear viewing with Sea Hawk, Ft Abercrombie State Park, fossil beach (whales literally spouting right next to us as we were out on the boulders during low tide, starfish, fossils), hiking Pyramid mountain, seeing so many bald eagles, and so much more. We loved Kodiak and we hope to come back to A Channel View some day, hopefully sooner rather than later!
