A Guest House at Water’s Edge hosts, Barry and Kathy Bracken, have lived in Petersburg for over 30 years. Their experiences and love of the area make visits to “Southeast” even more memorable. They have created a relaxing, waterfront retreat on Frederick Sound, a short distance from downtown Petersburg. The views of the rocky shore, the Sound, and the mainland mountains from the semi-secluded guest house are like a kaleidoscope of changing scenes – the ebb and flow of the tides, a variety of waterfowl, magnificent eagles, seals, sea lions, occasional whales and other wildlife, boats, icebergs, and of course, the weather!
Water’s Edge is perfect as a vacation rental for small groups or two couples traveling together. Individual B&B accommodations are also available. The guest area includes a separate guest entrance, a common living area which offers a breathtaking view of the beachfront and the mountains, kitchen facilities, and two guest bedrooms.
The Beach Room, with en suite private bath and a king-size bed (which can be made into two twins), commands a panoramic view of Frederick Sound from its five large windows.
The Creekside Room, with a queen-size bed and a large adjacent private bath, overlooks a picturesque creek which runs through the property.
Complimentary laundry facilities and bicycles are also available.
VISA and Mastercard are accepted.
The Brackens' reputation of warm hospitality for the past 17 years draws many inquiries, and summer reservations are filling up quickly. Visit their web site for more information!
