The house was great! Separate sleeping area if you have early & late risers. All the things we needed, washer & dryer helped tremendously! Close to a great park & trail.Is a duplex with shared yard, could t sit outside due to neighbors barking dogs but didn’t spend much time at the house.

Excellent stay at a nicely appointed house

Property was maintained very well and furnished nicely. Eveey room was well appointed and we were impressed with all the amenities provided by the host.The location is excellent as well. Close to downtown, but still away and secluded near the lagoon.The rates and cleaning fees were very reasonable as well.I will definitely book this place again when I visit Anchorage.

Great stay at a beautiful comfortable home in a nice area of Anchorage. House is in excellent condition and appears to have been recently remodeled (note that back deck is currently being torn down and replaced which should make this home even nicer once complete). Bed was comfy and hosts very friendly and responsive, plus right next door to a beautiful walking trail and pond. A great introduction to Anchorage for my wife and I. Would stay again, hopefully for longer than just 1 night next time!!

Great Location

I booked this VRBO for the proximity to Westchester Lagoon. My daughter and I love to ice skate when coming through Anchorage and Westchester is a great spot to do that. The house was very clean and aesthetically pleasing. The beds were comfortable and cozy. The kitchen had a blender (not super common in rentals), some spices, and a keurig coffee maker. The only complaint I have is that noise from the neighbor (this until is a side by side duplex) could be heard pretty easily. The most common sounds were running (like a dog or kids) up and down the stairs.

Nice, clean, plenty of room, nicely supplied with toilet paper, paper towels, laundry soap, some start up coffee, basic condiments. Very nice, high quality dishes, utensils, awesome sharp knives, great towels and linens, shower soaps, dish/hand soaps. Appreciated the very comfortable high quality furniture, nice throws. These extra touches were so nice and welcoming after an extremely long day of travel. Wonderful quiet neighborhood very close to Westchester Lagoon Park, about two blocks, and an excellent location just a couple miles from downtown.On the flip side, had a little difficulty with the Keurig coffee maker, thermostat, and operation of the TV. However, this may be my own poor tech skills showing up! A regular coffee pot would have been better in our group as there were four of us. The TV was difficult to get to proper apps or stations, instruction would have been welcome same for thermostat.This was a lovely place, however, someone with mobility difficulties would have some problems. It is a two-story property with living space on the second floor and two bedrooms on the ground floor. A couple of large steps to get in the back door. Also, pictures show Westchester Lagoon, this is not visible from the property. It is a couple blocks away, it is not waterfront property nor water views. The pictures kind of imply that.Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others! Made our stay in Anchorage very comfortable, thanks much!

Host was great. Kitchen supplies were very nice, and include all the basic things we needed. They had the best toilet paper. Rooms were spacious. Maybe I didn't read closely, but bedrooms were on the main floor with a full bathroom, and kitchen, dining, living, and sun rooms were upstairs with a half bath.

We enjoyed the modern, clean accommodations of this place. We were only there about 10 hours because of our late flight. The beds were comfortable, nice linens and towels. Thanks for the hot chocolate mix and coffee pods. The location was close to the airport. The only negative was multiple stairs as two of our party were seniors. Would recommend to a family without seniors and for a longer stay.
