This house was just remodeled. Brand new appliances with coffee bean grinder and lots of extras in the kitchen. Comfortable beds with beautiful linens. Great smart television in the lower level family room. Walking distance to the downtown area. Easy pick up by Uber. Beau is very helpful. Strong WiFi.
Our group of 6 (siblings and spouses) made the trip to see the northern lights, Iditarod, Fur Rondy and even the ice festival in Fairbanks. This home was ideally situated within walking distance of the Iditarod. The home may look a bit dated on the outside, but don’t be up fooled, everything inside has been updated beautifully and artfully. The kitchen is state of the art and three bedrooms-three baths were perfect for three couples. The beds were comfortable, home was spotless, well appointed, warm and cozy. Even in 4° and windy conditions the windows were tight and draft-free. Everything you could possibly need is provided, including off-street parking. Beau was an attentive host. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks, Beau. Winter in Alaska may scare folks away, but we were awe-struck by its beauty and think it’s Alaska’s best kept secret.
We stayed in anchorage and went to Whittier and Palmer for day trips. This house was a great location and close to restaurants. Beds comfortable and neighborhood quiet
It was convenient to downtown and had everything needed for a great stay!
