Great for our 3 generation group including multiple introverts. Lots of space. We loved it. No complaints. Someone mentioned in a prior review they were surprised by the owners being there, so I will mention that there is an apartment above the attached garage. Family staying there was SO quiet, we only knew of their presence because we caught them parking at their side of the house. Having them there was a nonissue.

Beautiful house, lots of space. Even though the owners ended up being there that week, we didn't notice them. The place was well stocked and comfortable. It's furnished with old furniture that really fits the property. We would definitely stay there again.

We are thankful that the family has made this house available - we were a family group from 4-68 years old and were very comfortable because of all the space. We also liked that the house was not in the busy part of Alaska- nice for the kids to play outside without having to worry about a busy road.

Comfortable and ample space for all

This property was ideal for our family as we enjoyed visiting Anchorage and the surrounding areas. We appreciated the location as well as the cleanliness, well stocked kitchen, and all the amenities. Our host, Bob, was very pleasant and made sure to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Check in, communication, and ample space for all our family was great. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking to find a great place for a “ home away from home” while visiting this area.

Great location

In the past, VRBO has sent me information a few days before the trip as to how to access the property, but this time, I had to contact the owner, and he immediately sent it to me. As described, the property is in a great location, has plenty of space, and is well-stocked with spices and other little necessities. The owner responded to my questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again.
