An excellent find in Eagle River
My girlfriend and I were looking for a decadent weekend stay near Anchorage, and the Ram Valley Inn fit the bill! A simple but comfortable guest suite, with all the appointments of home, along with one of the best hot tubs we've ever found and a sweeping mountain view. Highly recommended!

Awesome VRBO!!
Everything about this place is awesome. The view from the hot tub is breathtaking. The landscaping is beautiful. 20 minutes from Anchorage. Far better than staying at a hotel. Couldn't ask for better hosts. Nikki asked if there was anything she could do to make our stay better. I told her if she could make it stop raining that would be great. A half hour later it stopped raining and the sun was shining!! 😁 Thank you so much for everything!!

Beautiful area
A nice place to stay, Beautiful country, very helpful and informative hosts. There are a few bells and whistles that have lost their new polish but overall a great experience. The home above the rental unit has some noise from the family and dogs moving about but this is not an issue at night. Since we are awake and out and about during the day it’s of little concern. The bed frame squeaks real bad to the point if either of us roll over we both wake up.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole Szajkowski

Host profile image
We and our three boys were all born and raised in Alaska. We enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities in all four seasons of this wonderful state. Our home is located in the beautiful foothills of the Chugach Mountains in south-central Alaska.

Why they chose this property

Nestled among 7,000 foot peaks, towering waterfalls, and forests of birch and aspen, the Ram Valley Inn is surrounded by the third largest state park in America, the Chugach State Park. Within a quarter mile proximity to the Historic Iditarod trail and glacier-fed Eagle River, we are located in the Upper Eagle River Valley. We are a convenient 45 minute drive from Anchorage International Airport, 10 minute drive into Eagle River, and 2 hour to the Kenai Peninsula.

What makes this property unique

Minutes away you will find unlimited access to the surrounding half-million acre Park from both the North Fork Trailhead, and the Eagle River Nature Center via the Crow Pass National Historic Trail - one of the more popular local trails, an early gateway into interior Alaska, and historic Iditarod supply route. A multitude of local outdoor opportunities await, some of the most accessible hiking, skiing, camping, wildlife viewing, snow machining, rafting, and climbing. You may also find endless photography opportunities. From valley floor to rim, rugged landscapes are decorated in rock and alpine tundra. Visitors of this area take home memories of high alpine wildflowers, local wildlife, salmon returning up the Eagle River to spawn, soaring eagles, roaring glacier-fed rivers, the howl of a wolf, unrivaled mountainous vistas, sheep and goats grazing the alpine meadows, moose, bears, and the occasional lynx and coyote.
