About the host
Hosted by Athena Grimm
Welcome to our cherished homes in Anchorage, Alaska! We are Charlie and Athena Grimm, lifelong Alaskans who are thrilled to share our beautiful properties with guests eager to experience the wonders of Alaska.
Having lived in Alaska most of our lives, we have a deep love for this stunning state and the unique experiences it offers. Our roots run deep here, and we’re excited to open our homes to visitors who wish to explore the rugged beauty and serene landscapes of Anchorage and its surroundings.
Family is at the heart of everything we do. We have been blessed with three wonderful children and six delightful grandchildren.
We both have fulfilling careers in the transportation industry, which has allowed us to explore Alaska extensively and appreciate its natural beauty. Our favorite adventures include visiting the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, where you can witness the incredible wildlife that calls this state home. We also love spending time boating on Big Lake in the picturesque Matanuska Valley, a favorite spot for family outings and serene escapes.
At our properties, you’ll find not just a place to stay, but a home filled with thoughtful details, modern amenities, and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck, soaking in the sunlight through large windows, or relaxing in our comfortable and well-appointed interiors, we aim to make your stay as memorable and enjoyable as possible.
We are here to ensure that your Alaskan adventure is everything you’ve dreamed of. From answering your questions to providing local tips and recommendations, we’re committed to making your stay smooth and enjoyable. Once you’re settled in, we’ll respect your privacy, allowing you to fully relax and enjoy your time with loved ones.
Thank you for considering our homes for your Alaskan getaway. We look forward to welcoming you and helping you create unforgettable memories in the Last Frontier.
Warmest regards,
Charlie and Athena Grimm
