Spacious, comfortable home nestled in the woods and still near to Anchorage. We enjoyed our stay and the closeness to “city life” while feeling in the woods at the home. We recommend this home for families.

We are thankful that the family has made this house available - we were a family group from 4-68 years old and were very comfortable because of all the space. We also liked that the house was not in the busy part of Alaska- nice for the kids to play outside without having to worry about a busy road.

Great location

In the past, VRBO has sent me information a few days before the trip as to how to access the property, but this time, I had to contact the owner, and he immediately sent it to me. As described, the property is in a great location, has plenty of space, and is well-stocked with spices and other little necessities. The owner responded to my questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable and ample space for all

This property was ideal for our family as we enjoyed visiting Anchorage and the surrounding areas. We appreciated the location as well as the cleanliness, well stocked kitchen, and all the amenities. Our host, Bob, was very pleasant and made sure to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Check in, communication, and ample space for all our family was great. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking to find a great place for a “ home away from home” while visiting this area.

Great older home in South Anchorage

Our family stayed here at the start of our Alaskan adventure. It’s a big older home with lots of room to spread out. The only downfall for us was the fact that we booked several adventures taking us north and that added time to our outgoing and return drives. But that’s on us for selecting a south Anchorage location. Hosts were responsive to questions and the home was clean.

Perfect Base Camp For Alaska Adventures

We took a group of high school seniors to Anchorage for their Senior Trip. This house was the perfect base camp. Most of the excursions we were doing were outside of anchorage within two hours' drive in different directions. The house was the perfect location and size for our group. Everyone had their own room and there was space to spare. The house is much bigger than the pictures imply and more beautiful than I was expecting. It was clean, filled with everything we needed and as private and secluded as we were hoping. Communication with the owner was instant. Any question we had was answered within minutes. I would highly recommend this for families, large groups and anyone else looking for a great place to stay while in Anchorage!! Thanks for adding greatness and class to our Alaskan adventure and helping to make memories these young people will never forget.

Great house for a larger group / family

Seven family members thoroughly enjoyed staying at the hillside house - room for all of us to have some space as well as great areas for the family to gather. Multiple sitting/living room areas and a big kitchen with dining area. The host was responsive and helpful - the area is peaceful and quiet. Would certainly recommend, especially for larger groups!

Great stay.

We loved this house. The house is huge. It is well insulated. Our group ranged from 8 y/o to 75 y/o. We could not hear each other in the morning. The house was comfortable and secluded, but close enough to town to be conveniently located. We would absolutely stay here again.

Quiet, large home

House was perfect for our group of three couples for a week. There's plenty of space to spread out and have privacy and also gathering places to enjoy as a group. We loved the kitchen for breakfast and coffee every morning. It's a super quiet location and easy access to all of Anchorage. Owner promptly responded when contacted. It feels like you're stepping into the 80's when you're in the house, but it's super clean and comfortable.
