A good location in Chugiak. You don't go somewhere like this for nightlife or restaurants, but hiking, gas, a grocery store and other necessities are close. Good access to the Glenn Highway.

House is great, plenty of space for all. The location is very close to a highway so it was noisy all night. Probably noisy during the day but we were out sightseeing.Distance from anchorage was as advertised which means you are about midway between Palmer and Anchorage which worked for us.
