Place was amazing. Clean, close to downtown and close to parks and hiking trails. Even saw the moose in the yard. Host is very nice and accommodating. We would definitely stay again!
Perfect location in Anchorage to use as a home base to tour the surrounding area! The home was perfect for 2 couples and had everything we needed and more. Deanna was a wonderful host and answered all of our questions promptly. Would highly recommend if you are visiting Anchorage!
Cozy home in walking distance of downtown Anchorage and the Tony Knowles coastal trail. The house was perfect size for our group of 5. Deanna is a wonderful hostess and provided some great recommendations for activities.
Everything was excellent! We had plenty of room in the house, it was very clean, and the location/neighborhood was wonderful! We met Deana while walking in the neighborhood - she was so sweet, friendly, helpful, and welcoming!
We loved our stay at Bootlegger Cove house. Walking distance to town and the scenic trail which is close to the water. House was updated and very clean.
There was plenty of room for our family of four. The property was easily located and in a great and quiet neighborhood. The homemade smoked salmon was a lovely touch when we arrived! The entire place was so clean, it had everything we needed, super comfy beds, and the washer and dryer were very welcome. We would absolutely stay here again!
We stayed at this property for the AOGA Trade show. This home was extremely clean, nice and comfortable and the host was very friendly. I’d highly recommend to anyone!
What a perfect spot for taking a vacation in and around the Anchorage area. Our hosts went above and beyond to ensure a good time was had by all. The house was well stocked and cleaned. I would absolutely stay again. A special thank to their kindness you my11 year old nephew! He has been telling everyone back home about all the highlights which include basketball and puppy playing. Thank you!
Our family of four (two late-teen kids) had a great stay at the Bootlegger Cove house. The location was ideal; so easy to get in and out to the airport, downtown Anchorage, and beyond. The location of the trail was awesome; I only wish we had more time to take advantage of it. The house was very clean and well equipped. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for the hospitality!
This ADA friendly property is located in a quiet residential neighborhood close to the water and downtown. It has a great layout for families and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners are close by and super friendly. Bikes were available for our use and there was also formation on favorite local restaurants, things to do, and don’t miss opportunities. We would stay here again, for sure!

About the host
Hosted by Deanna James
We are lifelong Alaskans who enjoy travel, adventure, and meeting new people. We are also superhosts with a full 5 star rating for multiple years on the AirBnB platform. We look forward to hosting our guests and making their Alaskan stay the best it can be. Screenshots of our Airbnb host page and recent reviews are added in photos for your viewing.
Why they chose this property
This home is in South Addition which is an established, quiet neighborhood in downtown Anchorage. We often say it is the best of Anchorage with the water (Cook Inlet), views, and walking trails, in addition to the close proximity to all things downtown.
What makes this property unique
Our neighborhood is wonderful, and we love to share where we live. Hosts are nearby, but respect guest privacy. We are happy to share the interesting history of Anchorage and lend ideas to make your Alaskan visit even more enjoyable if requested. We are both lifelong Alaskans, and our kids are 6th generation Alaskans, so we know a little about our town. The Bootlegger House sits next door to two other houses available for rent. If you have a large group of family, friends, or coworkers our units are ideal for having your own space while still being close. Check out the Bootlegger Bungalow (2 beds/1 bath) and the Inlet View House (3 beds/2 baths).
