Sweet get away

I stayed at the cottage for four days by myself. It was just right for a person traveling alone. It’s really close to the airport, downtown Anchorage and Kincaid Park where I was attending an event. I felt safe and enjoyed the quiet location.The host was terrific, and easy to contact. I’d definitely stay here again.

Nice studio for a short overnight stay

Needed a bed until flight the next morning. Studio apartment attached to Madison's home in a quiet neighborhood. Madison was beyond helpful in arranging quick transport to the airport the next morning.

This suited our needs just fine. However, the curtain rod right above the bed fell off in the middle of the night other than that everything else was just lovely.

Very cute and comfortable – the bed in particular was wonderful. Lots of nice touches, including a full kitchen and a great shower. A very peaceful spot with a lovely yard, and access to the trail system. Private entrance and parking. I choose to walk from the airport - it is 2 miles, but it’s all paved trail or sidewalk, so it’s a lovely walk. My favorite coffee shop, The Writer’s Block, is just around the corner. It was such a nice place to be, I looked forward to getting back every day.

Cozy and sweet

This is a delightful little apartment, tucked away into a quiet, older, nicely kept Spenard neighborhood. The apartment has a queen bed, a kitchenette, a small bathroom, light- blocking curtains, and a lovely yard. Very comfy for 1 or 2 people. It has a stove, but no pots or skillets, and a microwave. Not really set up for cooking a meal but one for microwave dinners o popcorn. Spotlessly clean, thoughtful touches like silk flowers and coasters on bedside tables for a glass of water. Also no couch, so you ned to sit on the bed to watch tv. It does have a small table with 2 tall chairs. I loved how quiet it was there, and how nice the yard was, a very pleasant stay which I hope to repeat again before too long.

No comfortable chairs for watching tv. Bed was too small for two people, a queen would be minimum. Remodel the bathtub/shower... it’s hard to get the temp right on the water. Sometimes hot water comes out when you turn on the cold, ???? Other than these things, it was certainly peaceful.

A quiet peaceful place to stay with a clean room, bath, and a comfortable bed. I had some problems getting in with the keypad system, as I initially was sent the wrong code. Attendant was there to help so there was no problem.

About the host

Hosted by Madison N.

Hi, I'm Maddy! I'm a lifelong Alaskan- born and raised in Anchorage. There really is something so special about this place. We have all the convenience of a modern city, and the perk of driving 20 minutes to a wilderness adventure! This unit is part of a triplex. My family and I live on-sight, keeping it cozy and safe. I can't wait for you to experience the magic of Alaska!

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood has such a central, convenient location. It's also filled with well-established home-owners with a family-friendly feel. You can walk a few minutes from the property and enjoy feeding ducks in a pond or walking the Red Bridge along Fish Creek which flows right behind the property.

What makes this property unique

This fun & funky triplex has been lovingly nicknames "The Fairytale House" by the neighborhood. It has a beautiful yard and bold coloring. Upon your arrival, I think you'll find you understand exactly why it has been given that title.
