Awesome spot!

The house was so spacious and stocked with everything we needed! Beds were comfy and blackout shades did the trick during the summer solstice! Thank you so much!

Wonderful Alaskan property

We came for two days and had a great time. The outdoor space was amazing and our kids enjoyed being able to play outside. The house was well stocked and the host was awesome. We would stay here again!

Alaska Great

The hosts were fantastic to communicate with. A group of us have been coming up to Alaska for years and by far this is the best house that we have experienced. It was well stocked with items that we have never had onsite before, making our shopping list much shorter than usual which we very much appreciated. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great house with lots of room, quiet neighbor hood, and well stocked.

The best!!

The property was absolutely amazing!!! Exactly as seen on the listing and fully stocked with plenty of things for us and the kids like mosquito spray, binoculars, kids games, etc. Katelyn was amazing with communication and check in process and even when the wifi went down due to a storm she did her best to make sure it was fixed ASAP. We will gladly be booking this property again on our next trip to Alaska and I hope anyone reading this does too!
