Call Nicole now if you want more information or if you are ready to book the Bunkhouse for this summer or next. • The Bunkhouse is now a very inviting 1200 sq. ft. private vacation home that sits beside the main Inn and overlooks the Tongass Narrows. The original Bunkhouse was floated to our property in 1940 from a lumber mill on Yes Bay. In 2007 Jim moved it further onto our property, rebuilt it, and opened it as the Bunkhouse cabin. It has now been transformed into a very special couples get-a-way. • There are large picture windows throughout the house. Some overlook the ocean and others the gardens and lush forest and pathways around the Black Bear Inn. • There is a private sun deck all along the water side of the Bunkhouse with excellent views of the Inside Passage. • The elegant living room has 3 picture windows, a leather couch and love seat, two side chairs, a large electric fireplace and a 50 inch flat screen TV. There is high speed wireless internet throughout the Bunkhouse. • The Bunkhouse features a full kitchen and adjoining dining room, with a table and chairs for 8, a walk in pantry, and a washer and dryer. • The main bedroom has a memory foam/pillow top queen bed, a propane fireplace, and a sitting area with SIRIUS satellite radio, cable TV, and high speed wireless internet.

Jim and Nicole have been married 20 years. In 2004 they decided to build a small Inn. Nicole drew the house plans and with the help of one other man, they built it. It opened in July 2006. Jim is a fourth generation Alaskan who’s great grandfather, Forest Hunt, and great grandmother, Harriet Hunt, came to Alaska in 1898 lured by news of a rich quartz strike.They owned a meat market on Front Street. Their pet bear could sometimes be seen waiting outside the store. Forest was Ketchikan’s mayor and a state legislator for years. Harriet was an avid photographer. Her photos can be seen throughout Ketchikan. They owned Hunt’s Book and Novelty Store where you could “buy almost everything you want”. It closed in 1954. Jim grew up working in the family businesses. He was a DuPont explosive distributor, float plane pilot, tugboat operator, fisherman, & environmental cleanup/recycle specialist. He is always happy to share his knowledge about Alaska’s history and the topography of South East Alaska. Nicole is a former teacher and university & hospital administrator. She has degrees in education, art, and psychology. Landscaping & interior design are 2 of her favorite pastimes.
