Biker's Bungalow - Near Mendenhall Glacier and Auke Bay Offering DISCOUNT ON TOURS!

This biker-themed studio is enhanced with Luxury granite and other stone finishes throughout. A piece of art ready to be showcased. Biker's Bungalow is decked out with Motörhead deco and is a super cool small space! Owner, Johney Engle uses his artistic talent to create amazing kitchens for homeowners. He opened, what is still, the only stone fabrication shop from Surrey British Columbia to Anchorage Alaska, in 1985. He built his home and shop here with pride, branding it with custom rock and other 3-dimensional art pieces throughout. Your private studio apartment is no exception and host Johney will help you have a local Alaska experience! If you like the outdoors, you'll love the trails and fishing spots within walking distance. There are many fun, excursions a mile away at Statter Harbor in Auke Bay, including kayaking, paddle boarding, and whale watching. Johney is there to point you in the right direction for the experiences you're looking for. You'll have full use of your own private studio apartment with twin bed and private exterior entrance. Your private space has a 3/4 bathroom with a luxury shower, The space has a kitchenette with a toaster oven, toaster, microwave, and coffee pot. There is plenty of off-street parking. This apartment is on the ground floor. The shop is situated directly adjacent to Biker's Bungalow with operations from 8 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday. Shop noise can be heard from your unit.

Biker's Bungalow is a private apartment with its exterior access, bordering the Tongass National Forest and near Auke Lake, Auke Bay, and the famous Mendenhall Glacier. It's the perfect base for an adventurous Juneau visit with lots of local flare. You can rent fishing poles and bicycles on-site for use within proximity. A luxury shower is a comfort highlight of this unit! This unit features a Twin bed, Kitchenette with a toaster oven, microwave, and coffee pot, TV with cable, internet, and a luxury bathroom.

An artist had a dream and he's inviting you to enjoy it. This is an experience, not just a place to stay. You'll be thrilled and inspired. Biker's Bungalow stories will be told as you recant your Alaska vacation memories into the future. Johney is passionate and fun. His work is unique. It's edgy, and it's hard-core. Much of his art is three-dimensional, assemblage style. Johney figured out that he could make kitchens into art, so he studied rock shops around the country, created his tools, and opened his stone fabrication shop in the garage of his home in 1999. Johney's eye for the perfect rock and design to match his customer's personality landed him on the cover of Southeast Living Magazine. He's a classic entrepreneur, turning one sale into another tool, and eventually, he built his shop in the back and expanded the home around it until a masterpiece was created, and ready to share with you. Self-portraiture by the late Skylar Engle is displayed throughout the property. These two Engle's have produced brilliant art, with outstandingly contrasting styles to interest you.

Lovely Stay
I really enjoyed most of my stay here. There were occasions when someone was walking loudly upstairs but it wasn't something that was upsetting. The one person I encountered during my stay was very friendly to me.
