Perfectly comfortable home

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home. Comfortable beds, easy parking/access, great location, fully stocked kitchen and laundry. The record player was an indoor hit and the cornhole and firepit was the outdoor fun. Our stay in Grant's home was the highlight of our Alaska Adventure.

Snowboard Alyeska

Me and two of my buddies stayed here for a long snowboard weekend. The home was perfect, has all the amenities required for a great trip. Very clean hot tub, perfect for after a long day on the mountain. We used the gas fire pit that was super easy to light. Very close to really great food. If bringing food up, I would stop in Anchorage if coming from the Airport, it's quite expensive, or maybe that was just the beer, lol. Had an amazing stay. Highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Grant

Host profile image
I moved to Anchorage from the San Francisco Bay Area in 2007 after falling in love with AK. This home is my second home that I use frequently the winter and in the summer when it's not rented out. I have been to 42 countries around the world and Girdwood is one of my favorite places in the world.

Why they chose this property

This is a beautiful home with all new amenities that can sleep seven people in five beds. The location is great for all the best that Girdwood has to offer. Many out of state guests will use this home as a home base for a weeks worth of Alaska adventures. It's an easy and beautiful drive to Anchorage (about 35 miles away). It's about a one hour drive to the Kenai River which has some of the best salmon and rainbow trout fishing in the world. It's about 10 miles from Bird creek which also has great salmon fishing. It's about 15 miles from Whittier which offers amazing boat tours, fishing trips, kayaking and wildlife viewing. Girdwood has some amazing hikes, a downhill mountain bike park in the summer and great winter skiing and helicopter skiing and summer tours. Seward is a day trip and offers and amazing aquarium in a cute town with great boating and fishing. This house is a 10 minute walk to the Double Musky which is rated as the #1 restaurant in Alaska and the house is about a 15 minute walk to the Girdwood Brewery. The list goes on and on of amazing things to do in Girdwood and the surrounding area.

What makes this property unique

This is a warm and inviting ski themed home in a great location, walking distance to restaurants and the local brewery. There is an amazing covered firepit area in the back yard and there will also be a covered hot tub there too starting in December 2023!
