*NOTE* You may be sharing the hot tub with us the owners or potential guests staying in the unit above you that have access to the deck areas. It is very very rare we have both units that want to use it simultaneously. We can always put in a time requests also.

Getting Around:
The best way to see the beauty of Alaska is to have a vehicle. We are a HUGE state and to really see its beauty, you want a car.
Most of the tourist attractions and pick up locations for tours are located downtown, about 15 minutes away via highway.
Highway access is less than a minute away!
A full grocery store is in the area, about 1-2 minutes if that down the road. Wallgreens, ice cream shop, fast food, Wellsfargo and a few local resturants are also in the same area.
Our neighborhood is VERY safe for walking! Take the kids or dogs to Oceanview park, its just 2 neighborhood blocks away. The park has a jungle jim, short walking trails and can get to the train tracks for some unique photos!
Walk to a coffee kiosk stand and South Side Bistro local diner! A 5 minute walk just outside the neighborhood. A popular spot for breakfast!
Other Things to Note:
This is a house that has been uniquely remodeled into 3 private units. You will have other people possible being on a different floor. Just keep that in mind when booking. It is NOT the entire building structure to yourself.
We are open to having guests over to enjoy the deck space and visit family/friends. You will be responsible for your guests at all times and clean up after. Please communicate your guests visiting so we are all on the same page.

Perfect place for my family during our long weekend tournament! Convenient to stores, restaurants, coffee kiosks, everything we needed. In a very safe area, lots of families out walking, park nearby. Host had great communication too! Love the area, will try to book this again for the next time!

I wish we had been able to use the kayaks. No access to the water.

Thank you for leaving a review! We do not have kayaks available nor advertised? We are also not near the water but in a residential neighborhood.
Just wanted to clarify for future guests staying with us! Thank you for your review!
Sorry it took so long for me to rate this property. The Link in the messages from VRBO would not work. Finally, I received this message directly from the host and was able to respond and do a rating. Overall, we were extremely happy with the property and the amenities. It had a great location on the south side of town but it was very easy to access everything we needed.
This unit is located in a lovely South Anchorage neighborhood. The location was excellent, the unit was clean, and the host was responsive and easy to communicate with.The only significant downside was the noise from the upstairs neighbors. While this is disclosed in the property description, it was much louder than we anticipated. We could hear conversations, footsteps, and other everyday sounds very clearly, suggesting the soundproofing between units is limited. It's possible we simply had unusually noisy neighbors during our stay, but if you're looking for a very quiet space or plan to nap during the day, this may not be the best fit.Overall, we had a very nice stay. The hot tub was a wonderful amenity, and we especially enjoyed having it all to ourselves.
Nice and comfortable apartment. The location was a great jumping off point for all our outdoor adventures while in Anchorage. The hot tub is also a great touch after days out hiking. And Carolyn was a great host, very responsive.
My kids and I are were thrilled with stay . So clean , very thought out , loved the hot tub and fire pit . It was so great to see the kids having fun and at the end they were begging to stay longer . We will certainly book again on our next trip to anchorage
It was a nice and comfortable stay for our party of 4 adults. We enjoyed using the hot tub and patio for outdoor dining. Location was close to outdoor adventures and minutes from Safeway and Walgreens, and other shopping. The neighborhood is quiet and a great place to walk. We will stay here again.
Communication with the host was amazing and was very responsive. Very clean and easy to find. Quite area which sometimes can be an issue in anchorage. Highly recommended for anyone lookikg for a place to stay.
This house/apartment was a great find between our National Parks visits. The house had everything we needed and close to grocery shopping and hiking trails. Would recommend staying here while in Anchorage!We had brief communication with Carolyn to get the hot tub working, it was a quick fix and she walked us through it perfectly! Thank you!
This property was conveniently located for our needs. Tidy and with all the amenities our family needed. Carolyn was very easy to work with. Nice stay.
Super cute and feels like home away from home. We stayed at two of the units and appreciated the attention to detail of this property. We would not hesitate recommending this property! Thank you so much and wish you the best for the journey ahead (:

Thank you for staying with us! So glad you enjoyed your stay in both units. Welcome back anytime!
Love the layout. You dont feel like you're sharing a house. We will be visiting my son in AK in the Airforce more and will be using it again and referring this location.
The unit was perfect for our trip. It looks exactly as the pictures show. Plenty of storage, parking, and a large kitchen to cook in. Grocery is 5 minutes away. The location was great for going to the zoo and a day trip to Wittier.

Thank you for staying with us Cheri! So glad you loved the place!
Unit was spacious, well equipped, clean and the outdoor space is amazing. Neighborhood is really good too. Communication with the owners is excellent and responsive. Great suggestions on things to do as well! If I come this way again I will definitely rebook with them. Thanks for helping to make our visit so nice and memorable!
Owner communicated promptly and explained the area well. She answered my questions promptly and was helpful with suggestions for things to do in the area. Details needed to access the property were clearly stated and sent when we needed them. Home was very clean.
We had been traveling and camping in BC, the Yukon and Alaska for several weeks and stayed here for a couple of days. Was a great break. Liked the location, not in the city but everything you needed was nearby. The space was nice, we did laundry and enjoyed the hot tub. Our pup liked having a bit more space to chase his ball and play tug. Great recommendation on Southside bistro - had an excellent meal there.
