Look no further
If you are busy researching where to stay during your Alaskan adventure, look no further. This is a beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable house. The view is stunning both day and night. The house is conveniently located to Anchorage and to grocery and staple shopping. It also makes a central base to take day trips, with Hope, Seward, and Talkeetna all within a 2-3 hour drive. The house comfortably slept 8 adults and teens and a toddler with room to spare. We highly recommend.

Anchorage stay
This home was perfect for our family (3 generations, 9 people). Listing and pictures are very accurate. The home is clean and spacious and the views are absolutely incredible. Our only downside (not a fault of the owner) is that is takes 20 minutes minimum to get anywhere due to being up in the hills. The views make up for it! Just an FYI for consideration on what you hope to do from the house. We saw black bears roaming around and a moose just up the hill. The toys provided were awesome for the kids and we loved the huge dining table to be able to eat together with space for everyone.

Fantastic!
This place was terrific. Would absolutely stay again. The owners were very responsive when a very minor thing came up. It was taken care of immediately with great communication.
