Property Description
The property includes one spacious main home, seven well-appointed guest cabins, an ice house, a water tower, a garden and tool shed, a boat shop, a fish processing and gear shop, and two expansive docks capable of accommodating large yachts and multiple boats. It's the perfect setting for those seeking quick access to world-class fishing, hiking, kayaking, paddleboarding, and the rugged beauty of Southeast Alaska.
The main lodge is designed for hosting large gatherings, featuring a deck for outdoor entertaining, a separate kitchen for meal preparation, a laundry room, a utility room, and a large shop. A private owner's residence in the back includes a primary suite and kitchen. Upstairs, there is a cozy loft, ideal for guests or staff. The second caretaker's home boasts modern upgrades, including a remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances, vaulted ceilings, a luxurious main suite with a custom shower, and a charming loft for additional guests.
Accommodations on the island are plentiful. There are four 2-bedroom, 2-bath guest cabins, two studio cabins, and a 4-bedroom staff cabin. Each offers breathtaking views and generous decks for wildlife and whale watching or simply soaking in the pristine surroundings. A scenic boardwalk circles the entire island, providing easy access to each building and offering unparalleled views of the surrounding seascape.
Quest Island's two expansive 80-foot docks offer ample moorage, with one dock equipped with 100 AMP power for yachts. This makes it the perfect gateway to the endless fishing and outdoor adventures Sitka is known for. With city power already available, the property is fully equipped to become a thriving year-round destination for guests and visitors.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a private island with unlimited potential, where nature, adventure, and quiet luxury converge perfectly. Whether you're dreaming of creating a premier fishing lodge, an intimate island resort, an adventure and wildlife tour lodge, or a personal haven, Quest Island offers endless possibilities to build your dream retreat in the heart of Alaska's coastal wilderness.
The island is turnkey and ready for occupancy. All homes and cabins are connected to city power, with full plumbing capabilities that include traditional faucets and flush toilets sourced by rainwater collection tanks, filtration systems, and hot water tanks. You can enjoy the remote island lifestyle comfortably, seasonally, or year-round without sacrificing modern essentials like hot showers, clean drinking water, laundry services, and dishwashers.
The homes and cabins are connected to a septic system that handles all wastewater (black and grey water). The system uses a submersible 4" waste pipe that directs effluent toward the bay, which the tides wash out twice daily. Essential microorganisms (EM1) are added to the septic to maintain the system, breaking down sludge and eliminating the need for traditional pumping services.
