Cozy cabin for two.
Cabin was clean and cozy, very comfortable for two people. Close enough to Anchorage but still felt secluded. Saw a moose on a side road near cabin. We would stay here again if ever back in the area.

Fantastic Stay
The location was really perfect. Close enough to services - grocery store 20 minutes away, but far enough out to feel secluded. Although I didn’t see, moose and bear roamed the property while I was there. Great meeting the hosts and family. I will say, the cabin is closer to their house than I thought - but this really wasn’t a problem and actually seldom saw the owners. Cabin was really nicely outfitted, with a lot of extras, plenty of spices for cooking, etc. it is small - i.e. cute. I was alone so not a problem, but the bed is probably a double (?) and I think would be kind of tight for 2 people, but if so, there’s a futon in the LR. So.. I do give the place and experience 5 stars. (This was the first VRBO I’ve stayed at.)

My wife and I stayed in this cozy little cabin while visiting anchorage and it was absolutely perfect. The location is great if you don’t want to be in the city, and they have a very sweet dog that will greet you when arriving. We loved our stay and will definitely try to book again if we come back to anchorage!

The property was as advertised. We really enjoyed our stay. Everything we needed was provided only had to get food. It is in a great location out of town but not far and was able to quickly get to were we wanted to go. Would stay again. Thanks for the great place.

Solace in the city
The cabin is very clean and cozy. The neighborhood is quiet. I loved being able to get out of the city so quickly! The views along the roads outgoing are breathtaking! I appreciated the privacy despite the cabin being so close to the main home. Matt was an excellent host!

Wonderful, well stocked cabin with everything we needed during our stay. Close enough to all of the things to do in and around Anchorage, but far enough away from the city to feel secluded and enjoy the natural scenery. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Such a perfect little cabin in the mountains! Appreciated learning the history of the property and how toasty the heater kept us. A well stocked kitchen made it very easy to stay in and stay cozy when we were done exploring for the day. Thank you for being such great hosts!

Perfect Location between Anchorage and Wilderness!
This cute little cabin was all we needed. With every day we had excursions from 6 to 8 hours long and all starting point of Anchorage. This made the cabin just perfect for us. Cabin had everything we needed to make dinner or breakfast. We didn’t need the bear spray at the cabin nor on our excursions but it was nice that it was made available to us already at the cabin. We did see Moose twice coming and going from the cabin! Thank you kindly for a pleasant stay, Ronnie & Renae Minnesota

Everything at this little cabin was perfect! We just needed somewhere to stay for our last few days in Alaska and we couldn't have asked for a better place. It was very clean, cute, and provided all the essentials you need away from home. We even had a black bear out on the porch in the morning and saw a grizzly chasing a mamma moose and her calf only a few miles from the house. Very nice neighborhood and on a beautiful property also. Thank you so much!
