Well equipped VRBO with outstanding host

The house was set up extremely well for a family and all of the details were very appreciated. The little things made the difference...the spices, the detailed handbook, and access to washer/dryer. Highly recommended for a family stay or for a set of friends.

Perfect Talkeetna stop

We had a wonderful time in Talkeetna. The house was so perfect that I wish we had planned for a longer trip. The bird feeders we filled and plenty of birds stopped by. We loved walking to downtown for food and drinks. I don’t know if it was the long hikes, but the bed was super comfortable.

Home away from home + close to everything + peaceful

Stayed overnight. Owner wonderful- responsive, super easy to work with, & nice. Home is nice - like staying at a friends for the weekend. Comfortable, everything you need, kids walked in and were immediately comfortable. Can walk to downtown. Home itself is on quiet street so peaceful. Plenty of space to park too. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend it if you are passing through Talkeetna or if you are visiting the area & need a home to base your explorations from.

Cozy house in the woods

We stopped here on our way between Fairbanks and Anchorage. The host was awesome with communicating and how they have the house supplied with everything you need was a treat. The directions to the house were good and the check in process was easy. Very relaxing place in the woods. We walked downtown when we arrived and bought some local craft items to remember our stay. It was my wife and my first trip to Alaska, and we brought our two granddaughters along to let them see the last frontier.

Fantastic Find in Talkeetna!

This property exceeded our expectations! The pictures don’t do it justice. It is very well kept, clean, comfortable and they have thought of everything to make you happy there. I wish every VRBO were like this house. Close to town and train depot but far enough away there is privacy. Great communication with owner. I would highly recommend it and will come back next time we are in Talkeetna. Thank you!
