Thanks for a great place to stay.
We were in Kodiak for our Grandsons wedding. The Catch is a comfortable place to stay and Stephen is a great host. We enjoyed watching the boat traffic and seeing Loons and Eagles from our deck. Sadly we could not use the fireplace. We would have enjoyed this as it was rainy and chilly while we visited. We also rented our vehicle from Stephen, an added bonus.

Going home
This trip was a gift to my siblings for my brothers 69th birthday. I was born in Kodiak and have not been back since we left base. My brother however has always considered Kodiak HOME. It was a joy to be able to take him home. I rented the house and our vehicle from Stephen, and a whale watching excursion. I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. Hands down the best VRBO host I have worked with.

About the host

Hosted by Stephen Foreman

Host profile image
This property is owned by Stephen and Kelli Foreman. We have been Kodiak locals for 15 years after first growing up in Nebraska. We have 3 young boys (12, 10, & 6) that keep us quite busy and entertained:) I (Stephen) work as an educator in the Kodiak Island Borough School District during the winter and captain a whale watch tour in the summer while Kelli works at the Kodiak Baptist Mission. We enjoy gill netting for salmon, long-lining for halibut, sport fishing, kayaking, backpacking, hiking, and exploring our beautiful island. We continue to be amazed and blessed to call this place home! It is with much joy that we offer you a great place to stay during your unforgettable Kodiak experience. Come and see!

Why they chose this property

Kodiak is an awe inspiring, untouched treasure. All who visit are taken aback by its breathtaking views and rugged terrain. After 15 years of island life we are daily amazed by Kodiak's beauty and opportunity for adventure. After a busy day out playing, the warm, inviting, home atmosphere will be the perfect place to unwind with family and friends. Our home will afford you the opportunity to experience Kodiak how we do, away from a crowded hotel, with an amazing channel view, and for a reasonable price.

What makes this property unique

Walking distance to downtown. Incredible views of the channel featuring all Kodiak boat traffic! Updated interiors.
