Perfect place for us to stay, in town for a family celebration near Jewel Lake. We loved our “layover” as our hosts could not have been more charming and our space was perfectly appointed for a cozy, convenient, and relaxing home away from home!

Great place to stay in Anchorage

Super cute studio apartment, comfy bed, very private. Washing machine and dryer was very helpful. Good wireless. It’s a ten minute drive to downtown…about 20 on lift. It is near the bike path so a person could in theory rent bikes and bicycle downtown. Would definitely stay again.

Fabulous Hidden Gem

Loved staying in this cozy unit during some recent business meetings in Anchorage. The host was easy to communicate with, responded promptly, and was very friendly. The unit was well put together, clean and comfortable. I especially appreciated the gas fireplace! I would highly recommend to others and stay here again in the future. Thank you for a great stay!

Delightful!

Accommodations for this vacation rental in Anchorage were very, very comfortable. It was surprisingly spacious for a studio with a bright, beautiful view of the mountains on a clear day. The decor was delightful with lots of attention to detail. If it’s cool, you’ll have a convenient gas fireplace and cozy soft blankets to take the chill off with a massive TV to entertain you. And I can’t say enough about the hosts who took care of any and all my needs and whose company I enjoyed so much! This vacation unit is a gem!

Delightful suite

Words just cannot describe fully the quality of this studio unit. Fresh, clean, bright, spacious and decorated with a coastal farmhouse motiff. The owners have gone the extra mile to make sure everything is provided. Just bring yourself, suitcase and food. Very nice quiet neighborhood. Julie and Charles are great hosts and always available. Five stars is not good enough.

Walking

The property and surrounding area are very clean and welcoming. I enjoyed almost everything this had. The hosts lives upstairs. They are very nice people but don’t know how loud some of their walking is. I would be watching tv with my headphones on and still be startled by the sound coming from upstairs.
Stayed 24 nights in Jun 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 12 Jul 2024
It is the first time in 3 years that someone has complained about the noise upstairs so much so that it interfered with the enjoyment of their stay and lead to a 3 stars review. You brought this to our attention at the beginning of your stay, and we went out of our way to do our best to accomodate, particularily in the evening. Considering it was a month long stay, we assumed we had corrected the problem. So it comes as a surprise that at the end, it was still a problem worthy of mentioning. This is a owner occupied property, we do our best to accommodate. Sorry we failed you.

Lovely studio

The studio was very cute and comfortable! The neighborhood was great! We were visiting Anchorage for my nephew’s high school graduation. I stayed there with my mom. The location was very convenient to my brother’s house, Fred Meyer, and downtown Anchorage. We had a minor problem with the heat the first night. But Julie was able to address it the next morning. It is a studio underneath the main house with access to it through the garage. There were a few things that were difficult to access for short people without a step stool. (I’m 5’2” and my mom is 4’10”). The microwave is on top of a nearly full size refrigerator… but we made do. Also being on the ground floor you could hear the movements of the occupants of the main house…. But we got used to that over time. I would definitely recommend and next time I’m in Anchorage - would stay here again.
Stayed 4 nights in May 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 14 Jul 2024
Thank you Katie. Since you mentioned the microwave being high up for some people, we now offer our guest to move it on the counter top if they want to when they arrive and we added a step stool for our guests. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
