My husband Marty and I run the Cliff House B&B as well as Galley Gourmet wildlife cruises in Kodiak, Alaska. And we’d like to extend warm greetings from the Emerald Isle.
Kodiak Island has been listed by National Geographic as one of the Top 10 destinations in the world. And when you see this island’s incredible beauty, you’ll understand why.
The island’s beauty is one of the reasons why we live here. Then there are the people; a special caring and neighborliness that goes, perhaps, with living on an island.
Kodiak is a special place, whether you enjoy hiking, sipping tea, bear viewing, gardening, reading a good book or taking pictures. There is so much to do here, for families and adventure travelers alike.
As our guest, we enjoy attending to your needs, hopes and dreams, whether it’s your birthday or your first trip to Alaska. You’ll feel relaxed and renewed because nourishing the body, mind and soul is our number one priority. Nature provides the setting and we bathe you in hospitality.
So please, if you come to Kodiak, Alaska, let us know how we can help make your visit extra special.
Cheers to you,
I’m Marion Owen. I work, relax, and love life in Kodiak, Alaska. I’ve worked on research ships, created photographs that hang in The Smithsonian, given up cheese and meat, and enjoy watching bumblebees and snowflakes. And somewhere along the line, I co-authored the New York Times bestseller, Chicken Soup for the Gardener’s Soul. I’m learning how to not do too much. To be authentic, embrace joy, and not burn the oatmeal.
Thank you for being here,

My cell number: 907-539-5009 or the office number: 907-486-5079 (land line).

April 30, 2017 at 11:26 AMMarion & Marty, We are hoping to visit Alaska, maybe in 2018 and our wish is to stay with you for a couple of night, (your place looks fantastic). However, we would like to give our eldest grandaughter the treat of her life by bringing her along (she will be 13/14 by then) Do you cater for youngsters at all?

September 5, 2017 at 1:49 PMHi Sylvia, my humble apologies for not seeing your comment/question. Shheeeesh. I am very sorry! We DO cater to families. Probably the best route would be to book our apartment-suite. You can see photos and layout of the rooms at http://www.GalleyGourmet.biz. I hope that helps and for sure, call me direct at 907-539-5009 if you have any questions. Cheers to you, Marion

September 18, 2016 at 10:06 PMThank you, Esther. It’s very calming and relaxing here and many of our guests comment on how well they sleep, though sometimes the eagles wake folks up in the wee hours. Cheers to you, Marion
