Everything we expected and more. The house is easy to find and easy to get around town, even in the snow and ice. The house was very warm during our entire stay, even though the outside temps were well below freezing the entire time. The house worked perfectly for us.

Everything was exactly as described and in most cases, even better. The three living areas made entertaining very easy (we had a small wedding party there one night for 20 local people) and the kitchen and two dining areas worked out great. The bedrooms were all well appointed with comfortable beds and great linens. We had a small family dinner for 12 from both families in the wedding and it was very easy to sit and visit with one another, most people opting for the main living room with the outstanding rock fireplace. I was very surprised that the furnishings were so well appointed, many appearing to be antiques and all representing the quality and sturdiness of Alaska. All of my son's friends and our new extended family were all impressed with the house. I have rented houses via VRBO from Florida to Hawaii (literally) and I have never been so impressed with a property as this one.

We were also very fortunate that the owner Bob was in town during our stay. We had 4-5 inches of snow each of the first 2 nights were there and Bob used his Bobcat to clear the entire parking area each day as well as pack down the drive to the main road. I cannot say enough good things about the property and Bob, easily the best experience I have had with vacation rentals, ever !
