The place was very clean, quiet and close to everything we needed. The host responded immediately to any questions. We loved the Japanese soaking tub and the laundry was greatly appreciated!
Charming duplex in a perfect location! Very comfortable with everything needed to enjoy some time away from home! Girdwood shuttle provided door to door transportation and the Nordic spa was magnificent! We’ll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay in Girdwood! This rental had lots of extras including a well supplied kitchen and bathroom. It was a great home base for our outings in the area.
My husband, grown son and I stayed 2 nights to enjoy hiking and activities in the area. Enjoyed staying in this home…. Great kitchen and open floor plan, comfortable living room and space. Would stay again!
The property itself was clean inside nice inside around the property could’ve been nicer if trimmed the views weren’t there because the trees or the other homes. The was in a great location and we did enjoy our stay. Girdwood is a nice little town with amazing views, amazing restaurants, I would stay there again
The property was in a good place near restaurants etc. There is another apartment above and there was a lot of noise there but other than that it was a very nice stay.
We loved our stay at this VRBO in Girdwood, AK. The home was updated and had everything we needed. Very convenient to everything in Girdwood and just up the road from Alyeska resort. It is also just a short 30 minute drive from Anchorage. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend if you are visiting.
This was a good overnight getaway. The place was very cute and has a lot of room. The heat was off, so it was fairly cold when we first arrived. But once we got the stove going it warmed up fairly quickly. Nice location.
We found the apartment perfectly suited for our needs. After reading some previous reviews we were a bit concerned but found the apartment spotless, comfortable, very well stocked with everything we needed. Location was great. The huge master bedroom bed was particularly well suited for tall people. We recommend!
Very comfortable home! Great location! Definitely need to eat at chair 5 delicious!!! It is a bottom unit so you can hear the unit above at times. Didn't bother us at all.
It was convenient to the Kenai Peninsula. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had all we needed. It was very roomy. Unfortunately we were unable to use the jetted tub as there were no instructions or obvious controls. Hopefully we left the condition of the house to your liking as there were no instructions for the garbage, linens, etc.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Insufficient heat, old and uncomfortable bed mattresses, not enough bathroom towels for all guests to shower. Advertised as beautiful home in reality, lacked basic maintenance and was falling apart.
Thoughtfully decorated modern place in great neighborhood. The only disappointment is that the blinds / curtains didn’t block light in the bedroom which was a problem considering Sun doesn’t really set , it was a problem falling asleep.otherwise there was attention paid to all the other detail.
The property is fairly old and there is a lot of wood rot. We happened to be there when it was warm outside and could only open one window, because the other windows did not have screens.
We loved the location and how much space we had for all 3 of us. The bathroom Mirror was on the floor, but we could still use it as a full length. No blender or ice maker, but we made due with what we had. If you use the tub make sure to grab a butter knife to get the plug out. Our overall trip was good though. We enjoyed the restaurants and the breweries. Thanks so much Heidi! I will definitely book with you again.
The place was clean with lots of living room space.It was a lower unit and was dark.It basically had no deck space to be able to hang outside.The second bedroom beds were uncomfortable and the room was dark.I probably wouldn’t stay here again!
Comfortable stay, perfect location for walking to Alyeska and biking. Plenty of towels and toiletries. Kitchen lacking some essentials like coffee pot, bottle opener/cork screw, plenty of dishes and pans though. Bathtub had a ring of dirt so did not use it and only one chair on back deck, so really no place to sit outside. Be aware this is a downstairs unit, listing is not super clear on that. I think it would be the perfect winter ski crash pad. The wii was fun and plenty of games.
There is a system in this house for water diversion that is so loud and constant, it was a relief to leave! Old flanel "pilly" sheets & extremely cheap mattresses in "multi bed room" were very uncomfortable.
Living room, Kitchen & Bathroom were good. Some instruction on washer/dryer combo would have been appreciated.
