This is a wonderful house for a family lots of room to spread out. The master bedroom and bath upstairs are really impressive. The game room downstairs is great for watching movies and the entire place is spacious yet cozy. Checking in was easy and the host was always communicative. Great Christmas get away.

The house accommodated 3 families adequately. The location (Girdwood) is very good and within reach of a lot of activities.
We stayed here for our annual snowboard trip and it was a great choice. The view of the mountains is beautiful and my wife absolutely loved the tub. Overall i was really happy with our stay.
A lovely home and a great place to stay with family. Good location to the mountain. The house was well provisioned and the property manager was super to work with.
We enjoyed a visit with a group of family members for a wedding in girdwood. The house had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for 12 adults to relax and enjoy the surrounding area and the views did not disappoint.
We loved our stay at this house! The views were amazing and the house had everything you need for a weekend away. We really liked the layout of the house and are looking forward to staying again, will definitely rent this house again!!
This home was everything we hoped for and more! It was gorgeous, spotlessly clean, and had more than enough space for our group of 12. The kitchen and bathroom amenities were incredibly convenient and made our stay so comfortable. The neighborhood in Girdwood was peaceful and beautiful, just minutes from the resort, yet felt wonderfully private. The home truly exceeded our expectations and ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
House was great! Plenty of space and situated nicely close to town and mountain for skiing. Hot tub and basement was nice to have after a day on slopes. Would stay again.
Great location with EVERYTHING you could possibly need - lots of towels, all kitchen appliances & dishes, plenty of space for a large group to spread out. We enjoyed the views, the hot tub and the pool table.
We have stayed at this property multiple times and have never been disappointed. The one time the property was booked during our dates, we stayed at another property, and we were not impressed. In the past, we have stayed here with our special needs daughter, who loves the space. So open, clean, and a great view to top it off.
Our second stay here and is perfect for two families of teens. With the pool table, poker table, games and hot tub, the teens requested we stay here again.
We've stayed here before. Somehow even nicer than last time. The new hot tub was great and there are even two more rooms now. Will be back for the ski season with friends, highly recommend. Great place for couples (us) and groups of friends (also us).
Our fourth trip to Girdwood. So nice to get out of the city and enjoy the peace and quiet here. The house was awesome again! Hot tub and game room are great and we love the new rooms under the garage. Hoping to return this summer. Thanks Jackie!
Bedrooms are good size, extra tables available to seat large family. Good amenities with pool table, second living room & hot tub for teens. Beautiful view of Chugach mountains! Road is steep, but passable w/ 4wheel drive.
We chose this property based on location, as it is just south of Anchorage, and closer to the Kenai, Seward area. The location felt isolated and remote, (desired) but was very convenient for our itinerary. The house was very clean and spacious. Highly recommend this property!
Not our first time staying in this amazing house. It was great to use the new hot tub and enjoy the new rooms that have been added! Really hope to return again soon for another relaxing weekend! Thank you so much for the Girdwood memories!
Some friends and I rented this house for our stay. We were able to use it as our base for doing some fishing down the peninsula and just being a tourist. Great place to relax, enjoy Girdwood and cook. Beautiful house, we will definitely be back. Thanks
