I checked out the Skagway.com web site for places to stay. I only looked at accommodations with real beds. I am not sure about your feelings on where to stay before and after the trip but i would prefer a nice bed since i will be sleeping on the ground for four days. I was also thinking we would stay together so i researched places that would take on a small group. In some cases, prices would be per person (i.e. bunks) and others we would share beds and split the costs of the room or rooms. The prices (pre-tax of course) ranged from $15 to $50 per night. Not all locations had a clear cancellation policy and some only took cash. I tried to annotate these the best i could.
My pick is the Alaskan Sojourn for its price, bunks, and atmosphere. My second choice Cindy's Columbine cabin. Again, not too expensive, private with its own bath, and it can accommodate all of our party. We can even do a combination of places. Please check them out and let me know your top three choices. I will research them further. If you would rather camp, find a better location, or would rather have a private room, let me know that, too.
Once a decision is made, i will follow Bobbi's lead and pay for the rooms or deposit. If you would like your own room, again, please let me know and i will leave it up to you to make the reservation.
Bobbi: I think i will be flying down and either meeting you in Juneau or Skagway depending on your route. Please let me know your itinerary so i can schedule the rooms for the appropriate date.
