Cute home

This property was very charming with view of the mountains. It was in a not so great neighborhood but we didnt spend much time at the house. It was a perfect location for home base while we explored the beautiful state of Alaska not far from town, shoping or restaurants. The owner was very responsive and offered great suggestions of what to see and where to eat! Overall was a great trip!

My family and I stayed for 4 nights. This house was in a lovely neighborhood and had everything we needed during our stay. We had activities booked in Palmer, Seward, and Anchorage and this house was great to come back to after a full day of driving and sightseeing.

Wonderful property

Everything was easy from booking to checking in and checking out. It was close enough to walk to the Far North Bicentennial Trail, which was great for XC Skiing. The place was spacious, and it was nice to have everything we needed for our stay. The hosts were great at answering all of questions, and the information provided before we arrived was thorough and well thought out. I'd highly recommend this VRBO for your Alaskan adventure.

Great place!

This home was furnished with everything we needed for our stay. We ate several meals in and had all the cookware to do so and there were two grocery stores very nearby. Having a washer and dryer helped us to pack lighter and still have everything we needed each day on our adventures. The home was exactly as described. Communication with the host was great and entry was easy. I was very pleased with our stay and would gladly stay there again anytime.

Quiet, country feeling...

Everything about this property was as advertised. Lots of space, absolutely clean, about 15 min. drive from downtown, good beds etc. The neighborhood is sort of a transition area and within a few miles there were many fast food choices but not much else. Being foodies we found ourselves heading downtown to eat. Plenty choices there. Our exit surprise was finding beautiful lilies and other flowers against the kitchen wall of the house--nice:) For a 3 bedroom need and to avoid the high costs of staying downtown, we would choose this property again:)

Great place to stay in Anchorage

This was perfect for our family. We used it as our main hub. Took a day trip to Seward and a two day trip to Denali. Then a few places around Anchorage. The kitchen is set with what you need to make meals. Plenty of plates, cups, pots, pans etc. We were very comfortable and had a great time spending time with family here.

Anchorage duplex

We had 4 adults and 2 kids stay. It was very clean and the beds are very comfortable. We were in town for a wedding and to visit family and this provided a convenient location to get to anywhere in Anchorage. The only down side was one shower with 6 people. Overall it was a fine property.

Would stay here again!

This is a very convenient location to services while being close to the mountains and walking/biking trails as well. Our kids were able to ride their bikes to their friend's house, the trails and bike park. It's just off of a main road which is super convenient to go in any direction needed.We had an issue connecting to the wi-fi; however, the host was right on it to give me the updated network name. Easy-peasy!The only caveat for us (and this really isn't a big deal at all) was I wish there were a door stop for the sliding bathroom door in one of the bedrooms. I preferred it to be open when not in use, so I used a small towel, however, it took some tries to keep it in one place each and every time it was used. I have extra doorstops and will bring one to leave the next time we rent this place out :) We would love to make this the place for our new annual trip to see family in Anchorage!

Satisfied Customers

We had a very pleasant day at this property. The listing matched the property. Minor inconveniences during our stay. The main bathroom tub is very slippery and we purchased a bathmat to avoid any accidental falls. The air conditioner was functioning, the large room in the rear with the TV was a lot warmer than the other rooms and we had to keep the fan on to be comfortable. Unable to connect to the Wi-Fi with the information that was provided however, we were on vacation so this was only a minor inconvenience. Overall, the property was very satisfactory and I would stay here again. Thank you.

Celebration Vacation

6 adults, and we had a blast! We were in and out, ate out as well as cooked at the house, built a Loch Ness Monster in the snow, and had a wonderful time! David was great! Answered questions about recommendations to help us enjoy the trip and was so easy to work with. Was concerned about sharing one shower, but worked out perfectly (half of us preferred morning showers, the others preferred before bed). Nobody ever had a cold shower. The laundry was so convenient and helped us not have to pack so many clothes! Thank you for the use of your home! It was a vacation none of us will ever forget!
