Only stayed two nights but perfect for what we needed. Close to Tony Knowles trail and bike rentals. Walked to multiple fun restaurants. Only negative is communication; was worried about our reservation because didn't really hear about check in until day of, something easy to fix.

Cute place with historic charm. The house was perfumed and the bathroom was a bit cramped, but the location was great and the host was clear, friendly, and welcoming.

Anchorage Visit

Our second time staying here - last time was -15F. Much warmer this trip! We love this cute little cottage and especially its central location to everything in downtown Anchorage. Access to the coastal trail is a huge plus!

Great stay in a historical property

We stayed a couple of nights in Anchorage after a longer tour around Alaska. This spot was a great area to walk to coffee and shops downtown and was amazing to stay in a home with so much history and heritage. Communication with our host was easy!

Great location and comfortable, cute home

The house was conveniently located, cute, and comfortable. However, I asked for the door code ahead of our arrival, explaining that I would not have access to wifi to access the code onVRBO once I left the airport. They refused to give it to me until 4 PM, checkin time, so we had to wait at the airport until 4, to get th3 code. They also did not explain how to use the lock after punching in th3 numbers, so that took awhile to figure out.

Great Spot In Downtown Anchorage

We loved his small and cute little cottage in downtown Anchorage. It was very clean and we could tell the owners had taken special care in setting it up. We were able to walk right out the front door to the 4th of July parade in Delaney Park. We would stay here again!
