Nice basement apartment below the owner's home. Super comfortable beds. The road getting to it was a dirt road that was extra rough due to recent storms but definitely doable with our small SUV. The area is out of town a bit and so very quiet with a beautiful view. The only down side was the owner's had a lot of stuff in the frig and bathroom. There was a bit of noise upstairs when owners were home but very minimal, not a problem. They have 3 cute dogs, as well.

We were not happy with the road on the first day (early May). Dirt roads get very muddy in the spring when the ground is thawing. But by the end of the week the road had pretty well dried out and was not too bad. We had a couple minor questions that the host quickly answered. Pictures of the property need updated in the listing. The cozy log cabin now has a two story log garage and apartment very close. The views into the valley toward Turn Again Arm and Anchorage were fabulous. Overall, we were very happy with the accommodations and would recommend it.

Not great due to the owners living above. Movement from dogs & people heard until 11:30pm at least. We are early to bed and early to rise people. Water flowing in wall above headboard. Not a peaceful abode. There was no table to sit at inside. The tiniest of living rooms. To be honest we stayed one night and never came back. Oh and when we left there was a woman who opened the door because the tied up little dog was barking loudly - the dog then proceeded to snip at my leg as we walked by, no other course to take. The last communication from the owner was a couple of weeks out sent a message and he failed to reply until we had already checked in for the 1 night. A loss of for sure, but no way could I have stayed there. Lesson learned never rent with people living above you.

Great spot to stay in Anchorage

This is the downstairs apartment of the owner's home and is well stocked and lovely to stay. We felt at home and there is a really great view of the mountains from the porch/living room windows. If you are staying in the Anchorage/Girdwood area, this is the place to stay.

Great property outside of the hustle of Anchorage but close enough to access easily.Host was responsive and property is clean and ready for guest. We also got lucky enough to have a moose take a nap in the yard one night and were safely able to see it from the safety of our living room window.
