This is a very nice property. Super clean and new and very good experience. The only downside of the place is the road that is a block away. You can hear cars drive by every so often but in the evening things quiet down as the cars subside. I would highly recommend this place. April created a very high quality experience and was easy to chat with.

Plenty of Room

This house, though several miles away from Talkeetna, worked well for our family of 8 adults. It was spacious and has a really nice back porch where we ate breakfast every morning. It was nicely stocked and had everything one might need.

Alaska Family Vacation

This home was wonderful in every way. Clean, comfortable and conveniently located. The host has thought of everything. We traveled to Talkeenta and became members of the 30% Club actually seeing Denali in all its glory. Four separate families were able to stay here with no problems.

Thought of everything

This place is the gold standard for a rental on the VRBO website! I wouldn’t change a thing and it was truly a gem of a property. Also, the property manager was very prompt and provided excellent customer service. Would recommend this place for anyone wanting to travel to Denali!

Absolutely the BEST

April is definitely a top host. She has furnished this home with beautiful furniture, art, and everything you might need for a wonderful Talkeetna area experience. Anything we asked her about before or during our stay was promptly answered. Our family of 10 included my husband and I (master) our single son (upstairs br) married son (upstairs br) and our married son’s family who occupied the bonus area also on the second floor. The bonus area with a total of 4 twin beds and a crib is connected by the stairwell with curtains separating the 2 rooms. Their twins could see & hear mom and dad if needed and there was a pack&play for the baby. It was easy for us to make the bathrooms serve all our needs since the master bath could be accessed from the bedroom or the kitchen hall. The grounds are beautiful and there is ample parking.

We had an amazing time in Talkeetna. Thank you for sharing your home with our family. The home is a great setup for a group, it is private but close enough to town. Watch for the Denali view on highway heading to town, it was a great surprise.

This is one of the nicest places we have stayed. It was perfect for our group of 8. Beds were comfortable, and everything was clean and in perfect condition. The kitchen was very well equipped. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the covered deck and having a cook-out to take advantage of the great weather we had during our stay.

Best Ever vrbo experience

Very welcoming communication prior to stay and exceptional, clean, comfortable accommodations for our 3-gen family of 9. We enjoyed mornings and evenings on the patio bookending our busy days at touring destinations. Extremely pleased and grateful we could enjoy this home - including the surprising scene that unfolded late one evening as we looked out the window & saw a mamma and a baby mouse!

About the host

Hosted by April Moore

Host profile image
In 1994, we started building our family home. Every inch of our property has been created by our hands. We raised our three children in this house. Now that they are all adults, we are starting a new adventure. We'd like to welcome you into our beloved home.

Why they chose this property

For our family this home has always been comfortable and conveniently located for our busy lives. We believe it would be that for any person wishing to vacation in Talkeetna. Close to the 'Y' where the grocery store, hardware store, credit union and gas station are located. Denali Brewing's tasting room (one of Alaska's most popular craft breweries) is just 1 1/2 miles from our location. Talkeetna town site is just 10 miles up the road.
