Super neat experience and super fun to take out of state family. Never got the check in instructions and had to search other listings to find the property managers number. Other than that hiccup, our stay was great and they were very accommodating.

This was such an amazing experience! John the host was utterly amazing and made my birthday boys trip so memorable! Do not hesitate to book this property if you have a love for aviation, love for an Alaskan experience or just “plane” want to work with an amazing host who wants to be sure that your trip to Alaska is amazing. Working with John and his amazing customer service, his passion for aviation is evident. He was knowledgeable and clearly a wonderful custodian for future aviators! Would highly recommend!!!! Hope to work with him again!! 10 stars!!!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Host sent the wrong information to get into, and to the area. They only had a few towels to use for a long trip, and the washer was moldy so it was unusable to clean the towels and had to go purchase more to use. Had to wait over an hour to try and get the correct code to get into it late at night. There was a strong smell inside the master bedroom that was enough to make us sleep in the other room, and no windows had blinds to be able to get a dark sleep. The concept is 10/10, but a good management company seems needed to help it be a smooth and better experience.
