I decided to stay in Girdwood even though I had business in Anchorage during this work trip. The rental was easy to locate, communication with the manager was accessible, and it was in proximity of all the things I wanted for this business/leisure trip!

Hitting it all

Our stay in Alaska has been absolutely stellar. Day one, 14 on the moose count! Garage apartment worked, could have been better but for price, very out dated, not all windows had screens. We were able to overlook these minor details as this was not a foofoo vacation.. I do have to say we were very taken aback by the typed note from house owner who was obviosly home. We never received any notification to not park in front of THEIR door, until day before we leave only parking instructions provided Do not park in front of garage...RUDE also you have to pay to dump your trash, heads up would help. Hot tub stinks!

Suprise!

We got to the house and surprise there was a hot tub! That was pretty cool. It’s definitely an older residence but comfortable. They could have used some hooks for drying gear. The internet didn’t work, We contacted the property manager and they it connected then stopped working. The light panel next to the door was inoperable, so no light on the stairs. If it had been more icy that would have been a problem. There were a few things that were broken, the toaster was pretty Smokey. Hahaha.. but overall it was a pleasant stau

This is a solid spot. It was clean and comfortable. The hot tub in the middle of the room is super unique. The couch could stand to be replaced as it’s lost most of its cushion but everything else about the unit was great.

Quirky, awesome apartment

We loved the location, ample light, dedicated parking, kitchen, bed, and the layout of the space. However, there were rather major surprises in the ammenities that were strange to not have been very clear about in the listing- including a huge working hottub in the main living space and also a DIY mirrored ceiling in the canopy bed... we loved both ammenities but were very grateful we didn't have our kids with us to keep them safe from hottub and hodge-podge mirrored ceiling of the bed which was seemingly just two mirrors spanning the width of the bed without lateral supports. TBH I felt very uncomfortable about their structural integrity and my safety underneath them. It kept me up the first night! Also glad the kids weren't there to try to sleep on the pullout couch bed with the sound of the hottub buzzing all night, and/or keeping them out of it when we were in the main bedroom. As it was, the two of us loved the quirky space, having a very nice big hottub all to ourselves with good jet pressure and heat, and the central location, dedicated parking, natural light, kitchenette etc... was totally awesome. The hottub in carpeted living roo, the sliding mirror closet doors being off rails, poor wifi connectivity, and electrical plates so ornate that one could not plug in computer plugs nor phone chargers in main kitchen areas were detractors. That said, we would totally stay here again- the price was right, and the location n cleanliness were great, and hot tub!

Great spot!

Had a great week bascamping out of this unit. 4.8 stars- The provided Wi-Fi password was wrong and was never fixed (a credit was applied for the hassle), bed pillows are beyond wornout and the kitchen knives were duller than the butter knives. That is common to most rentals though, would happily stay again.

We were only in the Darwin condo ten minutes when I could not breathe. The chlorine from the empty hot tub containing mold was overwhelming. We went to open windows and there were no screens. We called Vacasa and within 40 minutes we were relocated to a clean, fresh condo at Creekside. It was a life safer!

Dark and scary

When we arrived, the stairs were essentially impassible. They had not been cleared of snow, the snow had absorbed rain and been compressed into ice, forming an EXTREMELY slick 1” thick ice layer. All of us fell trying to climb them. Fortunately we had a shovel and could clear them. The danger of climbing the stairs was compounded by the darkness, because the outside lighting didn’t work. The outside lighting was in good company, because the main inside light also didn’t work. This light didn’t work because the light fixture has loose wiring. Because of the loose wiring in that fixture and lack of circuit diagram, it is unsafe to use any of the inside lights. The kitchen light seems to be on a separate circuit, but because the switch, fixture, and bulb are not matched, the light flickers. The unsafe wiring is especially unsafe because the smoke detector doesn’t work, or at least has been rendered inactive. The insufficient lighting must make things hard for the cleaners; but there was just enough light to see the food residue that had been wrapped up in the bedding of the sofa bed. The kitchen was generally clean. A little food residue on the floor and one filthy frying pan hiding deep in the cabinets, otherwise clean. Good thing only two of us were coffee drinkers, though; since there were only two coffee cups. The kitchen appliances were adequately clean and functional. Some of the reviews we read mentioned a hot tub, to be clear: the hot tub is not part of the rental at this time. It’s still there taking up space in the living room, just empty and covered. The heat and hot water work well. The master bedroom mattress is comfy. The sofa bed is acceptable (barely). The TV works, with cable and a couple of streaming services. The parking lot was reasonably well graveled from the second day on, and management arranged for clean bedding and sand for the stairs. What to bring: Ice cleats for your shoes Shovel and/or ice chipper Headlamps Coffee cups A lamp or two or three Other than the death stairs and the fire hazard, not too bad.

Upon booking the property I observed the pictures of the place to have a large hot tub in the middle of the living room. When we arrived we found the hot tub to be empty so we contacted the company's 24hr service who then attempted to reach the property owners. The service noted that the hot tub was not checked as an amenity. No property owner ever got back to us. As we left the unit we could not get the outside stair light to function, all light switches were turned but it did not function. The stairs are very steep and covered with leaves (October). Making things rather precarious to navigate. The unit as a whole was outdated and old. All in all we were unsatisfied with our stay and will not be selecting this property again. However, the four cornered bed combined with the mirrored ceiling was an interesting twist.

Bedroom window was open (and broken!) and couldn't be closed.... In Alaska in the winter!! Although the house did stay warm enough. Black mold on the drapes and carpet. Dirty soap bar and dirty towel hanging on the door in the bathroom. Completely broken TV and very weak wifi (it only worked in the bedroom or kitchen.) Cheap 3 dollar curtain rod repaired with duct tape instead of replaced? Lots of small damage throughout.... This place is rough and way outdated. (early 80's?) except... the bathroom which was remodeled. worst two things besides the TV... the hot tub was way to hot to even use and with no way to adjust the temp! Also the mirrors on top of the bed had no support and could easily break in half and decapitate someone! So go easy when roughhousing in that bed!
