Peaceful Cottage

This cottage, in a peaceful location, made a great base for exploring in the Anchorage area. Many points of interest are within a days drive. It was nice to have a comfortable, clean, quiet location to rest in after busy days.

Great location!

This was a perfect base camp for our family’s Alaskan adventure. Quiet and centrally located from most of what we did (hatchers pass, Eagle river trails, girwood etc. Greg was a great host and was flexible with our stay as we were delayed due to flight cancellations.

Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023
