Charming Wasilla VRBO was charming

The house had everything we needed for meals and our 2 night stay. The beds were comfy. It was a bit out of the way but worth it. The manager communicated with me right away when I had a question.

Alaska trip

This was our 2nd place we stayed in during our 2 week Alaska trip. It was perfect for 2 couples. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. Even a third bedroom with bunks if you have kids. Kitchen had everything you need. We did cook some. Great location and very spacious.

Felt Like Home❤️

We were going to be in the area for an unknown amount of time, and we weren’t sure where we were going to stay. This home kept poppin up. We decided to book it, and I can’t tell you enough how happy we were that we did. It had all the comforts of home. While we were in the Wasilla area it became our home. There was plenty of room for all of us, and everything we needed to make our stay there perfect. The surrounding area was absolutely beautiful, which we took in on our many walks. Thank you to the owner, Brett, for being so gracious and accessible. If we needed anything or had a question he was available. I would highly recommend this lovely house to anyone needing a place to call home for a short stay, or an extended stay.
