The home features a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, comfortable living and dining areas, a washer and dryer, an attached one-car garage, and additional street parking.

We had a great stay, and would absolutely stay here again! The location was central and convenient. The house was beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed. The upstairs walk in shower and jacuzzi tub were luxurious! Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a spacious, well-equipped home in a perfect location!
House was perfect, had everything you would need and more, great location, quite neighborhood, didn't see my GF the whole time because she was relaxing in the jetted tub. Would definitely recommend. Come to Alaska for work all the time and would definitely stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay. It is a great location close to a beautiful park and pond, and it is close to the trail that will take you everywhere. There were some minor issues that could not be resolved during our stay, but the host was very gracious. I would absolutely recommend staying here, and I will re-book next time I’m in Anchorage.
This house was truly beautiful. It was comfortable, it was stylish. It was close to town and all the amenities. It actually helped make the trip become even more successful. And our host Alexis was wonderful.
We had a fantastic stay at this South Addition VRBO! The location couldn't have been better—just steps from the Westchester Lagoon and Anchorage's incredible hiking and bike trail system. It was also an easy walk or short drive to downtown, great restaurants, and many of the area's attractions.The home itself was beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean, and thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. One of our favorite amenities was the four bicycles in the garage, which were ready to use and made exploring the area even more enjoyable.This property exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely stay here again and, in fact, plan to book it on our next trip to Anchorage. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-equipped home in a perfect location!
