Great home base to see Anchorage area

Stayed 3 nights while in the area. Great spot to unwind after long days of driving to see the sights. Comfortable bed and clean, updated accommodations. Very easy to get to. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting a home location instead of a hotel.

Just Right

We had a short visit but this had everything we needed and more. Communication with the property manager was very easy and they were very accommodating. It was just right for our group. The rental is very homely and cozy. In our down time, my niece enjoyed the toys and roku tv apps that were available. We made some great memories with family here.

Great location, perfect size

Great location close to the airport and central Anchorage. Easy access to Seward hwy if you’re wanting to travel to other towns such as Seward, Homer, Portage glacier, etc. Close to flattop mountain if hiking is your thing. House is perfect size for family of 4 with a kitchen to cook and enough room to spread out and the house was very clean. Beds were very comfortable and the host Melissa is amazing. Would definitely book again.

Perfect Choice for our Anchorage Visit!

This property is exceptionally clean and well cared for! It was one of the most comfortable VRBO rentals we have booked. We were in Anchorage to visit our daughters family stationed at JBER and this property was very conveniently located to the base. The owners live right next door and quickly responded to our text messages. We will definitely seek to stay there again! Thank you!

The perfect home base for Alaska adventures

Spotlessly clean, comfortable, quiet, and perfectly set up; this place had everything we needed. Normally all my teenagers want to do is explore, hike and stay out all day. This was the first time I’ve ever had them asking when we were going back to the VRBO. It’s just so comfortable and relaxing. The backyard is beautiful and inviting and there are mountain views! The mountains are literally at the end of the street. Very Alaska. We wish we could have stayed longer. Check in and check out are 10/10 and the nicest and most helpful host you can get.

We loved this place so much we started and ended our trip here! Easy to find, this spot was quiet except for the joyful sounds of kids playing in a neighbor’s yard. The beds and bedding were so comfy they had be looking for tags to see what brand it was! Perfect size for a small family or a friends’ trip, and located next to beautiful mountains. I’d live here if I could but I cannot so I will just try to stay here any time I’m back in Anchorage :) Oh and get pancakes at Kava’s!
