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 two dogs. I enjoy meeting people from around the world who frequent the GuestHouse. I also have a dogwalking business, Bubbas Dog Walking.

We just wanted to say thanks for letting us stay with you your wonderful Guest Cottage. It was like a home away from home...thanks for all the beautiful flowers!

We four Minnesotans enjoyed your accommodations immensely. Since we had a vehicle, the location worked well as a staging area-day trip to Palmer/Hatcher Pass; to Homer,(kind of longgg trip for one day),Girdwood...and various activities in Anchorage: 4th of July Parade, F Street Grill, to watch the King Salmon make their way up the river, the Ulu Factory.....Una and Boodles were very well behaved - and so cute.....

Thank you for the oasis of peace during our trip from Maine. The house is wonderful as are you and the dogs. We can't wait to come back with the kids to explore more of "real" Alaska!

Thank you so much for providing a home away from home for the birth of our beautiful Darcy Jo. We were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay "in town". This was really the perfect setup for us. Your home impressed my M-I-L and our midwife! We will definitely recommend it to any Bush parents-to-be! Being away from home for so long at such an important time was not easy, but you made it a lot nicer and we really appreciate it.

Michele, I've enjoyed my five weeks at Duben Place as I explored Alaska with my family. Thanks for everything-especially helpful advice on Alaska destinations and hiking. Wesley enjoyed the magazine and both Justin and Wesley loved picking raspberries. We would have liked more sun but managed with the rain.....

I am so glad your guest house was available. For a family of five it was a great space - far better than a hotel! The fresh flowers, plush towels and books are a great touch. Thank you!
