We’ve stayed here multiple times and it’s our first choice for a rental when coming to Girdwood! It has everything you could possibly need and is a great house with amazing views!
Christina, thank you so much for your kind review. We are very happy you enjoyed your stay at the Girdwood Vally Guesthouse. Have a great spring and hope to see you again in Girdwood!
This was a great house for our group of 10. There was lots of space for everyone. The views are beautiful. The kitchen is large enough for us all to work together to make breakfast. We got to see the northern lights right from the living room.

This house is awesome, plenty of room for 7 adults. Clean, well stocked and warm. The game room, pool table and hot tub were all in great condition. Highly recommend this rental and will return. The host is also very responsive.
This is a wonderful house for a family lots of room to spread out. The master bedroom and bath upstairs are really impressive. The game room downstairs is great for watching movies and the entire place is spacious yet cozy. Checking in was easy and the host was always communicative. Great Christmas get away.
