Hillside Anchorage yurt

Donna's yurt was a unique, comfortable, and awesome place to stay during our visit to Anchorage! The location is private, quiet, perfect for hiking nearby, and we found anywhere in Anchorage to be just a short drive away. We found it to be equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our mellow moments in and around the yurt while we were there and felt everything was safe while we were out and about. Easy and prompt communication with our host(s). The neighborhood moose are an added bonus! We hope to return.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Barrington

We are a long-time Alaskan family with deep roots, helping raise our two young grandsons in a multi-generational family home. We are happy to help with any questions or concerns and would love to have you visit and make your Alaskan adventure memorable and comfortable.

Why they chose this property

Unique, comfortable and convenient, we think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better bargain or place to unwind and either begin or end your Alaskan adventure. A short 15 minutes from the airport, 15 minutes to downtown and many other activities.

What makes this property unique

Private, clean and brand spanking new rental. We love our yurt and know you will as well. A detached bathhouse is updated, new and super clean with full shower, even equipped with a bidet and all sorts of useful items.
