Owner's Map of Anchorage
I moved to Alaska from Los Angeles in 1998 to work in the Arctic. Deadhorse, Alaska on the edge of the Beaufort Sea was my base of operations for four and a half years. WesternGeco, the company I worked for then sent me down on the Kenai peninsula for six months, where I lived in a cabin on the Moose River in Sterling. Then I decided it was time to buy a house in Anchorage. I purchased a duplex and turned half into a fully furnished GuestHouse where I now live with my chocolate Lab, Gunner. I enjoy meeting people from around the world who frequent the GuestHouse. I also have a dogwalking business, Bubbas Dog Walking.

The location of this house rental was minutes from the full marathon start line...which was perfect! We enjoyed the accomodations thoroughly...fresh coffee, laundry facility and gracious hostess who helped us with figuring out how to use the DVD player! This is the ideal way to travel to Alaska since the prices can be extreme. It was very neat and clean when we arrived. We highly recommend it!
Owner response:Thank you for staying with us at Duben Place! It is always my pleasure to share with you this beautiful land that we live in! My goal is to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

We had a lovely time at Duben Place, well-equipped and clean with a nice private yard, good convenient location. Felt like 'home away from home', perfect. Oh and very comfy beds. Michele, the owner hooked us up with some fun activities, she has great knowledge of fun things to do in Alaska. I would recommend it to anyone traveling to Alaska. Thank you Michele. Saw some moose, funny animals. My favorites, hiking Exit Glacier in Seward and the train to Denali. We will be back.
Owner response:Thank you for being our guest! It is always our pleasure to ensure your trip to Alaska and your stay at Duben Place is the best for the Big Wild Life! Best regards, Michele.

We really enjoyed our 12 night stay in Anchorage at Duben Place Guest House. Michele gave us excellent directions and the the guest house was exactly as pictured, clean as a whistle, in a quiet neighborhood with convenient parking and all the comforts of home. Michele provided extras - fresh flowers upon arrival, chocolates, and coffee - and information for area restaurants and activities that were very helpful. I would definitely recommend for anyone visiting Anchorage and searching for a home away from home!
Owner response:Thank you so much for your kind words! It was my pleasure to have you here at the GuestHouse! Michele.

Michele, We really enjoyed our stay here. The Guest House was everything & more that we could have asked for and became our home away from home. Really appreciated all the extra touches you provided - the coffee & teas, all the condiments.....loved the decor and all the artwork. We would definitely recommend Duben Place to anyone visiting Alaska which is a wonderful state.

Michele...Thank you for opening up your beautiful home for us to stay. It was a wonderful place to come back to after a full day of sightseeing and exploring Alaska. It has been more than we expected and had become a second home to us...Thank you again. We hope to make it out back here soon and will recommend this place to all of our friends and family.

A perfect trip! Your place provided just the respite we needed after spending time with our four grandchildren! We slept well, enjoyed all the home-like conveniences you provide, and loved the quiet moments to reflect on the beauty of your Alaska. What a wondrous place - and Duben Place made it that much better.

Your complex was well equiped and clean. My parents are from Arizona and they were inmpressed. We all like the fact that you are located one mile from the freeway. Thank so much for the hospitality. When I have more guest and want to show them the Grand State of Alaska, I will use your home again.
Owner response:Thank you Penny, and it was a pleasure having you here! I am always working to improve your stay at the GuestHouse. Best regards!

Michele - Thank you for opening your home up to us as we relocated from PA and got settled into Alaska! This home is thoughtfully stocked with the essentials and some luxuries! You had all we could want for our first few weeks, and your company was appreciated even more. I can't say enough good things here about your place!
Owner response:It was my pleasure having you here! And welcome to Alaska!
