The house was spacious and easy to check in. Hot tub was clean. There were missing window shades for windows in the one master bedroom so it was very bright and difficult to sleep. Guests are required to take trash out to a dumpster a mile away so make sure you have room in your car carry take trash bags.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
The good: the kitchen was pretty well stocked and was easy for cooking. The solarium was beautiful! The location is convenient to everything. The bed upstairs was very comfortable. The not so good: the faucet and dishwasher were broken (we were give a partial refund for this as it could not be fixed during our stay). The house smells a little dank and just needs an overall update.

Thank you for staying with us and sharing your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed our convenient location, well-stocked kitchen, and beautiful solarium. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the faucet and dishwasher issues. We appreciate you allowing us to compensate for the inconvenience caused. The faucet has been replaced, and the dishwasher is out of service at the moment. We have provided a dish rack and mat for drying after hand washing. Your feedback regarding the home needing some updates has been shared with our team for consideration. We hope we can host you again!
The house is in an amazing location- 5 minutes from Alyeska’s day lodge. The layout is great for groups, there are no bedrooms on the same floor as kitchen and living room so no one is woken up early if others are in the kitchen. We were very happy with the cleanliness of the house, however, there were some things that needed to be a little more maintained. Vacasa was very responsive to these issues and helped us sort them out in a timely manner, which we really appreciated!
Great location - easy to get to all the attractions

Beautiful cabin. Very clean and a fun place to stay
I loved the cedar room for the hot tub. I loved the great room,and the decks that are in the trees. And, I Loved being so close to the beautiful town of Girdwood.
The property was spacious, clean and neat. Perfect place for a ski trip with close access to the mountain. Love the beautiful mossy trees surrounding the property, and the Hot Tub was perfect for relaxing after a long ski day!

Nice and Quiet
This was a great place to come back to after the day’s adventure. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here during our family vacation
The cabin had everything we needed. The open living spaces made for very comfortable meal time & relaxing after skiing. Beautiful views & the hot tub was nice.
It's nestled in the forest at the base of the mountain and ski lift. 3 floors and really really Cool. It's a big relief to walk into a property and know that it's clean! We didn't have to re wash dishes or cook ware. If I ever make it back to Girdwood AK, this is where I will stay.

Great Girdwood Getaway
Great quirky spot tucked into the woods in Girdwood. House easily accommodated our group of 6 including kids. Lots of room to hang out and appreciated the kitchen well stocked with pots/pans and spices. Great location with easy access to Virgin Creek Falls and the day lodge. Oven worked well as did the hot tub!
We spent a ski weekend with our family and enjoyed the house very much. The upper bedroom feels like your sleeping in the tree canopy. Plenty of beds and bedding, well-equipped kitchen, and quiet location.

Pretty nice
This is a gorgeous and unique property. It was generally comfortable and was really clean. We wished the beds and pillows were less cheap/more comfortable given the price of the stay.
