Vacation/Wedding

This property was excellent! The location was perfect for hiking, wedding and restaurants. Space was great inside, hot tub was good and we really appreciated the soaps, towels and other small items already in the kitchen and bathrooms. The “mud room” was great to hang wet coats and wet shoes without messing up the rest of the floors. The only suggestion we have is to possibly put a dehumidifier in the bottom floor. All of the wet gear gives the bedroom a musty smell. We will be returning to Alaska next year for another wedding and would readily book this same cabin again.

Great Girdwood location

We loved this home! There was plenty of room for everyone, a well stocked and functional kitchen. The Bake Shop is walking distance for the house if you want some fresh sour dough bread and homemade jam! We are looking forward to returning!

What an outstanding stay

Great location, great accommodations and so well stocked. We had 6 adults, enjoyed a meal at the home with an evening in the Hot Tub and a fire in the fireplace! We all give this home a 5 star!

Excellent Location and Beautiful Accommodations

This was a perfect place to stay. It was in the middle of everything and a walk away from great dining and incredible scenery. We were a fairly quick drive to Anchorage and very close to amazing recreation, helicopter ride to glaciers and ATVing. It was fabulous. Tammi was always quick to respond with questions. I would recommend this place to stay as the most beautiful and centralized area to stay. Thank you again!!!

Son's Wedding

I rented this house for the grooms men and their partners from out of town. They had a great time and were very comfortable and happy to stay in this house. The hot tub was a big hit also.

5 star cabin/home in a great area

The property was as advertised, actually even better than the pictures showed. We were walking distance to the Girdwood Brewery (great beer) and some restaurants (Jack Sprat was wonderful). Our street was very quiet. It has a very well stocked kitchen and a wonderful hot tub. Thanks for sharing this property with us!

Great place in a ski resort town

Had a great time here. Got to see some black bears hanging around outside one morning which was great for the kiddos. Centrally located to the ski resort, tram system up to the mountain top, great trails, and is 45 minutes closer to Kenai than Anchorage. Alaska Wildlife Center is also close. Property was clean, with a lot of the stuff you need to make dinner at the house. Tammie was responsive to any messages. All in all, had a great time here.

Amazing cabin & perfect area!

Right next to a bike shop if you’re interested in renting bikes and exploring the area! The cabin was perfect and very clean! The kitchen was stocked with all the supplies you need to cook and eat. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back again.

Don’t stay here

Do not trust property management, they will keep your deposit. My adult children and I were there for three nights. We washed all dishes we took out all trash and we followed every direction outlined for check out. Instructions ask us to hang up dirty linens and I get half the deposit taken because the towels were too dirty and or stained??!! I was told that the hot tub needed to be drained and cleaned when everyone who got in the hot tub showered first. I Challenged this because I had personally checked things before we left and I was told that the refrigerator smelled like fish. The irony is we never cooked any seafood at all. The house is nothing exceptional and clearly the management cannot be trusted. There are many other places to stay in Girdwood that will offer a better experience. I have stayed all over the world and take pride in being a responsible guest. I have had 53 rentals in the past 11 years and never have I felt treated unfairly until now.

Happy place

This cabin was a true treasure! It made the experience feel like home in our favorite place. It was fully stocked, we brought all the things and it literally had anything we missed and then some. Even a sound machine for my 1 year old to sleep with all the comforts. We had a blast playing Alaskan trivia and all the kids games. The mud room was a dream for after bike rides and hikes. The kitchen and family dining table were perfect for our family and we made memories that we will forever treasure in our happy place.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny Hand

After renting this property for 5 winters, two Alaskan ski families purchased this home for a winter getaway. We have made many improvements to this cabin to make it our own and provide luxury accommodations for our summer guests.

Why they chose this property

The location of our cabin cannot be beat! We are on the first block just below the mountain e. It's an easy 2-minute walk to our favorite restaurant, Jack Sprat, or 4 minutes to the day lodge or Sitzmark, a local bar, restaurant and concert venue.
