Free Netflix
Chugiak is 20 min North of Anchorage and 20 min South of The Mat-Su (Wasilla and Historic Palmer). Girdwood, Eagle River, and Chugiak is all part of the Anchorage borough. So it's listed as "Anchorage"
The chalet bungalow is located at the base of the Chugiak Mountains. This gives you unprecedented access to close by trails, water falls, shooting ranges, and much more. Nearby Eagle River will have all the services that you need and close by is Three Bears for hunting, food, and fuel supplies. There is a large field, within walking distance, for sledding during the winter from the house. We have received many compliments on large picture windows in the front that has made it a great place to telecommute from. The Mat-Su valley is about 20 min away to unlimited lakes, hiking, restaurants and more shopping.
You can day trip to pretty much the entire road system and can reach areas such as Fairbanks, Valdez, McCarthy and Homer (4-6hrs). Closer by is Big Lake, Sutton, Copper Center, Seward, Kenai, Coopers landing, and much more (1-3hrs). I will be messaging you during your stay to let you know of events or opportunities that are available. If you make a reservation you can always Map the property to get a better view of it's location and surrounding features. We have a pretty flexible cancelation policy so it's okay if you change your mind or something comes up.
We hope you can stay and live your Alaskan dream. We welcome you!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by JD Berry

I operate and own my own contracting business. This allows me to respond quickly to all any requests. I speak German having learned from my Mother who was a German national. I have been in Alaska a long time and Daphne is an Alaskan native from the Bethel region.
Why they chose this property
This is centrally located and a simple day trip to most of what Alaska has to offer. also it meets the 30 min rule for Anchorage hospitals for nurses. It is pet friendly too!
What makes this property unique
All my properties are Green operated. I operate and distribute my own heating fuel made by me in my Bioplant. It produces 100gal a day and really helps reduce waste and I will continue introducing new processes soon to further that agenda.
