About this property

Oasis of calm in the heart of Anchorage

Welcome to our newly remodeled home, in a wonderfully convenient location! There is easy access to the Seward Highway and the best Anchorage has to offer. We are mere minutes from downtown, and yet the house is still peaceful and serene. We are just a few blocks from the Chester Creek Greenbelt, which is wonderful for walking, jogging, biking and cross-country skiing, and it can lead you to several local parks as well as the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail.mThe large open kitchen and dining area make meal preparation a breeze. Barbecue your catch of the day on the back deck while overlooking the spacious shared backyard, then enjoy your meal on the sunny front porch. We were the first home in the neighborhood to add solar panels, and we work to incorporate eco-friendly practices throughout the home. With a newly remodeled master bathroom and a well-stocked kitchen, this home is ready to be your oasis and launching pad for your Alaskan adventure!

Oasis of calm was made for our family. We fit perfectly and had plenty of room to hang out. The extra touches (ie: cinnamon rolls and muffins), closet in hallway with a variety of activities for all ages, and just location met our needs well. We enjoyed sitting on the deck too. Thank you for a great start to our vacation.

My family of 8 had no problem with space in the house. It had all the necessities needed for cooking and it was comfortable. The next door neighbors were a little loud so we needed ear plugs but other than that the place is truly wonderful. Would definitely stay again!

Comfy beds, plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen, laundry facilities and a quiet neighborhood. Look forward to our next Alaska visit!

Top Notch In Anchorage

We had a wonderful stay here! Our host was fabulous and very quick on any questions that we had. The newly remodeled bathrooms were so tastefully done. The location was perfect for what we were looking to do. Very easy to drive downtown for dinners and centrally located for our trips outside of Anchorage. The whole house is extremely well kept. Would definitely stay again and would recommend. Thank you again for allowing us to stay

Our return to Alaska

The house was great for our need, a place to sleep. The only thing I noticed was the filter in the refrigerator needs replacing, other than that , it was perfect. Some more TV options would be a great add on(local news, etc.).

This property worked out well for our extended family of 8. Everyone got a bed and we all fit comfortably around the dining room table. The house was well stocked with all we needed and the host was friendly and easy to get in touch with. I even enjoyed the outdoor space on the front deck. I would book again if I was in Anchorage.

Very modern and well equipped home and kitchen.

Had everything we needed, including a nice and well equipped kitchen. Plenty of space, beds, towels, dishware, seating, etc. for our extended family of seven. Beautiful place with modern look. Enjoyed the seating and plants out front too. Convenient location. While we primarily visited locations at the edge of Anchorage (and a few parks and coffee shop/bakeries closer by), this central location made getting everywhere convenient.

It was so good to find everything just as advertised! The house felt like home for 8 wonderful days. It was obvious that every effort has been used to keep the place in excellent shape. We had plenty of room and found everything we needed had been provided. Jennifer was so much help with sightseeing help when asked. Great experience

Don't Hesitate - Book this property!

North Star was the perfect home base for my siblings and I on our first trip to Alaska. It is conveniently located to the airport, downtown Anchorage, the Seward Highway, and many dining and shopping options. Check-in and Check out were super simple, and Jennifer responded to questions and messages quickly. She was easy to work with. The place was extremely well stocked, and we found everything we needed. The layout of the bedrooms worked great for our group, the beds were very comfortable, and I appreciated the newly remodeled bathrooms. The house is well maintained and very clean. Our whole group loved our stay here, and if (when) we ever travel to Alaska, we would definitely book it again.

Our Alaskation

Upon our Family’s arrival, we were taken back by the corner to corner cleanliness and modern feel throughout. The home was cozy and there was plenty of room for all 8 of us. The private driveway was a real plus bringing in groceries in thru the front. The patio was practically situated and we used the seating on many mornings for coffee. I can recommend this home is plenty fit for any family long term or short term. The price was very reasonable and just makes more sense than a hotel. Great place and the host was fantastic about any questions or concerns we had, going out of their way to make sure we were accommodated properly.

Feels Like Home

This property was perfect for our family vacation. The beds were divine, the house was clean and so beautifully decorated. There was plenty of countertop, cabinet and drawer space, so you didn’t have to be creative to use your “stuff.” My husband is on a walker, but everything was walker accessible. The shower in the master was easy for him to get into. The house was so well-stocked that we felt very much at home. The owners were lovely. It was centrally located for easy access to shopping and eating establishments. We would definitely recommend this home for families, couples or singles.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
My husband and I have lived in Alaska most of our lives,. We are passionate about the state, and happy to be raising our children here. I have worked as a travel adviser, tour director, kayak guide and instructor, bike guide, downhill ski instructor, and local guide. We live most of the year in Girdwood, a small ski town about 45 minutes away from Anchorage. We are happy to share our Alaskan experience with our guests to help make your stay as fulfilling as possible!

Why they chose this property

We bought this house to be close to our children's school in Anchorage during the winter. It is also two blocks away from my husband's work and close to everywhere we want to go in Anchorage.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this home's bright, airy feel, its large yard, and the proximity to our favorite trails in Anchorage. The warm, sunny front porch has turned into a favorite spot for outdoor meals.
