About this property
Exceptional Accommodations for Larger Families & Groups
The Home: With 3100 sq ft of living space, 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, Baxter crest can comfortably accommodate larger families and groups. The open-concept design, huge chef’s kitchen, sprawling outdoor deck and patio make this home perfect for entertaining.
The Amenities: This home is packed with amenities and extras! Have morning coffee around the AMAZING outdoor natural gas fire pit, cook a meal in the fully stocked gourmet kitchen, watch a movie on one of the large screen TVs or relax in the expansive master suite with spa-like bathroom and Jacuzzi tub. We don’t suggest spending much time indoors while visiting Alaska, but if you must, this is the place to be!
The Location: The home is in an exclusive 7-home cul-de-sac neighborhood that is convenient to everything the city has to offer. We are just minutes from the airport and downtown, yet Alaskan wilderness can be found right outside the doorstep! Guests can walk to Baxter Bog hiking trails, Cheney Lake and the Alaska Botanical Gardens. You are almost guaranteed to see moose hanging around the home!
The Owner/Manager: Troy is a 25-year military officer with an eye for detail and an insistence that everything is perfect. Book with confidence and let us handle the details!

Great place to hang out. Loved the accommodations and the location. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Not right in the city but quick rides to get to the city, hiking trails and museums.
We had a great time in Alaska! The house was clean, inviting, and perfect for our extended family of 9! All of the necessities were provided and easy to find. Would definitely stay there again!
We were very pleased with our stay here. Dawn gave us a tour at check in which was really nice. Also had the high chair and pack n play for the baby which made things easier. Property was very clean and we wish we had more time to make use of the amenities.
Overall, our family vacation in Alaska was lovely. The location and size of the home was perfect for our needs. The house was very beautiful. Any issues, the owner addressed right away. Thank you for having us!
We’re a group of 9 and the house suited our needs perfectly. It’s very spacious and open. The house was spotless upon arrival, the beds were all comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The fire pit in the back was a nice bonus. We highly recommend this house for a stay in Anchorage.
We like the roominess of this home. Also enjoyed the layout and conveniences in the kitchen - perfect for our group to cook and hang out. The host stayed in contact with us to take care of our internet issues. So appreciate his help.
I cannot say enough great things about this house. It was very clean, well-stocked, and very spacious. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely come back! Dawn the host was great to work with. I wish all VRBO rentals were as great as this one. FIVE stars ALL THE WAY!!!
We really loved the property , the comfort it gave us and also all the things they provided was very nice and thoughtful. This house was giving all of us very positive vibes. Highly recommended for future stay. Just one suggestion of possible please as couple of twin size bed instead bunk beds.
Fabulous set up! Well stocked. Many little comforts of home that make for an easy stay. Smooth check out with little to do before departing. Very responsive host. Thank you!
Absolutely wonderful family vacation! The house was ideal for our family with ages ranging from 3 months to 60 plus and lots of ages in between! Beautiful home with many amenities and an amazing fire pit. Ideally located close to airport, town, grocery stores, restaurants and more. Troy and Dawn were incredibly easy to work with and responded in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend this home!
A beautiful home that perfectly met the needs of our family. They thought of all the details which made for a comfortable home base while we toured Alaska. Nice location with all the amenities. Everyone loved the double headed shower. Beds were comfortable, some a hit creaky but comfortable and clean. Thank you Troy
Clean, beautifully equipped, excellent communication with property manager, nice yard, large usable garage, modern appliances, large beds. Special requests were easily and kindly accommodated by the owner and property manager. Unless you want or need to stay near the city center you would be hard pressed to find a better place! Highly recommended.
The house was just as described and accommodated our group of seven perfectly. Troy the owner was great with communication and answered my texts in a very timely manner. Location of the house made it easy to get wherever we wanted to go. Would definitely stay again!
This house was exactly as described. Very clean, comfortable and roomy. Home has everything you need. Check in and out process was very easy and Dawn the property manager was great. Would definitely stay again.
Our family really enjoyed the house. Everything in the house was in good working order. Enjoyed the fire pit and relaxing on the porch. We were so close to the city and could easily get on the road for our day trips.
We loved this house. It was beautiful and had everything we could have wanted. Troy reached out several times to make sure we had everythng we needed. Would definitely recommend this house.

Everything the photos promised and more!
Had a great week with family and friends at Baxter Crest! The house provided all the space we needed for eight guests. Troy and Dawn were super helpful during the planning process and they made check in/out super easy! Will definitely be recommending this place to anyone else looking to visit Anchorage!
We are a 2 generation family of 7 with a 2 year old and our stay stay was amazing at this home! It was very spacious and well equipped with everything we needed even for our toddler. The location was convenient to downtown and the airport with about a 15-20 minute easy drive. Troy was was very responsive and kind when we had questions. Overall, we had a great experience and would love to stay there again! We would highly recommend!
