About this property

We are ready to host you today! We've instituted additional cleaning procedures to ensure a clean and welcoming apartment for your visit. We've cleaned hard surfaces with anti-bacterial sprays. Soft surfaces, furniture & throw pillows are treated with anti-bacterial fabric sprays.

Located next to popular Westchester Lagoon and The Coastal Trail, this apartment is also minutes from downtown by car, bike, or your feet! If you have a vehicle, you'll have a parking spot reserved just for you.

When you are away from home, we want you to feel welcome and comfortable while you visit our wonderful and adventurous city. We are committed to hosting you and providing a warm and welcoming home, whether you are here for fun, business, or both. Our winter wonderland is a beautiful time to visit Alaska!

Adventure around the city, or relax inside logging in to watch your favorite shows on Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon. With two internet connected TVs (one in the main bedroom), you and your companions have unlimited options.

Our apartment has two bedrooms (now with a queen bed in each as of Oct 2019), a jacuzzi bathtub, full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, one full bath and one half bath, and a washer and dryer in the unit. We've stocked our Keurig machine and filled the refrigerator with complimentary bottled water.

This is the first of two rentals that we host in our building. The second one "New remodeled unit next to Downtown at Westchester" just opened in December 2019. It was designed and furnished with guests in our minds.

As a born and raised Alaskan, nothing beats the beauty and winter recreation opportunities of Alaska!

You'll have the entire 900 Sq Ft apartment to yourself.

There is a shared deck to relax on while watching the sunset and waterfowl.

There are two flights of exterior stairs to access the apartment.

Located in a four-plex with private off street parking. One assigned parking spot with booking.

Great place to stay!

The property was as advertised and in a quiet and great location for us. The property owner/manager communicated very well with us and we liked the extra touch of having water in the refrigerator and other amenities as well. I highly recommend this property!

Quiet and comfortable, convenient location

Wonderful vrbo. Very clean and quiet. Great amenities with plenty of towels, snacks and supplies for laundry. Kitchen was well outfitted for for cooking. Stayed there with my adult child and the space was perfect for us with two bedrooms, two bedrooms and laundry in the unit. Location was great too. Next to a walking trails and close to downtown and main roads to easily get to Providence, shopping and museums. Also, no crazy check out/cleaning requirements. Hosts were very responsive to communications and just lovely people. Would love to stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Christine and Dan

We (Christine and Dan) are raising our family here in Anchorage. We truly love Alaska and all the outdoor opportunities that are available within not only our city's boundaries, but the unexplored land way out beyond.

Why they chose this property

We sold our family home and invested in this 4-plex in 2019. We saw this location as a perfect spot for short term visitors and long term renters. We are investing in our new home to make it comfortable and inviting for our family and our guests.
