Spacious, comfortable home nestled in the woods and still near to Anchorage. We enjoyed our stay and the closeness to “city life” while feeling in the woods at the home. We recommend this home for families.
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.
The house was great, plenty of room for us. The decor in the house was very old world Alaska, there were some beautiful antique tables throughout the house.
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.
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.
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.
Expansive with many attractive decor elements and niceties. Could use a few updates but overall very well appointed; our siblings and spouses really enjoyed staying here!
We had 3 generations staying together in the house. There was more than enough room for all of us. The house is in a great central location for getting around Anchorage. This was the 2nd time staying here, and we hope to be back again!
We rented this property as our home base for the 4 generation family vacation, and it was perfect! SO much space to spread out and have our privacy, as well as the large family get together areas. Loved everything about this home.
Our family stayed here at the start of our Alaskan adventure. It’s a big older home with lots of room to spread out. The only downfall for us was the fact that we booked several adventures taking us north and that added time to our outgoing and return drives. But that’s on us for selecting a south Anchorage location. Hosts were responsive to questions and the home was clean.
Perfect location and accommodations for all of our family. Everyone had their own room and then there was lots of room for the family to gather together. Great place to stay before going on our land and cruise tour. Easy check-in and check out process and owners are very helpful. Great Alaskan experience!
This property was PERFECT for my group of 8 people!! The home has a large kitchen, dining room, 5 bedrooms and three sitting rooms. Everybody could have their own space to sit and talk. There were plenty of bathrooms, and plenty of privacy. I found the home to be tastefully decorated in what we would expect to see in Alaska. If you are looking for a renovated home to keep up with the 2010’s to present, you won’t find that here, But what you will find is everything you could need or want for a long stay in Anchorage!!! We loved it!!! No complaints!!
Me and 4 co-workers stayed here for a week and everything was great. Everyone had their own room and the house was super clean. We had everything we needed and the house worked as a great home base. thx!

About the host
Hosted by Bob Giroux
Owners have lived in Alaska for over 40 years and are a semi-retired couple who travel extensively in the 'Lower 48' but continue to call Alaska 'home'. During the summer they enjoy spending time on the Kenai River fishing for Alaska salmon. During the fall they enjoy the Adirondacks in NY where they have a small cabin on the Ausable River. The winters are spent mainly in Florida avoiding the cold snowy weather they have enjoyed all those years. They maintain a small apartment over the garage at said property for when they are in Anchorage.
