Beautiful View from the bedroom, breakfast table, and desk

The owner was very helpful when we asked for him to fix the dryer and the spa. The kitchen was too small and with only a small Forman electric grill, no air vent, no freezer only a small wine cooler that did go down to 38!degrees, we were not able to really cook there. The outdoor grill on the upper deck was accessible but we only used it once when family joined us for dinner. The shower and bathroom area was large and comfortable. The toilet seat was lose and the screws were stripped. I’m sure Eric would have fixed it but we didn’t tell him having had enough disruption with the dryer repair. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we loved the lake. The Kurig coffee pot and pods were provided which we also appreciated. No toaster but Eric loaned us one. The bed was a double creepy antique European bed which was a little small but we got used to it. All in all we enjoyed our stay, The size of the closet/Utility room was also very nice and easy to move around in. Thank you.

Absolutely Beautiful

This is a little jewel. The apartment looks over Nancy Lake. We did have a little hard time finding where we were supposed to go. You have to walk down a sloping deep gravel area (not driveway because you’re not supposed to drive on it). It probably isn’t the best for those that are not strong on their feet or have heavy luggage, it’s a little hike. Worth the view. Very Clean and nice. The bed is a full size but there was a queen size mattress hiding and worked out well for my aunt and me. Had some issues with the website - totally not the owner’s fault. Wish we had more time to enjoy!

Excellent visit

We had a lovely visit. We were looking for a place to stay that would allow dogs that was close to where my dad lived. This place was lovely. I would love to come back in the summer. It had a full size bed that was comfortable and a loveseat. The floors were beautiful. It had a nice walk in shower and closet. We did have a small weather issue which was not the owners fault but did impact the door that would normally be accessed (heavy snow prior to our arrival). The owner was super accommodating and helped provide access which was above and beyond. I bet the view on the lake would be wonderful in the summer. It was pretty in the winter too and would have been great for snow machining.

Tranquility at the lake house

We stayed here for two nights after a hiking trip in Denali The hot tub is a welcome treat The weather wasn’t cooperative to do any water sports but we just enjoyed the serenity of staying by the lake and watch other people have fun. Host is friendly and gave us privacy. Apt is well stocked with amenities. Our favorite ones are the keurig and washer dryer plus the dual showers. There are no blackout curtains but it was cloudy most of the time and there are Lots of beddings and towel we could use to improvise. Thanks for the Alaskan hospitality, Eric.!

Uncomfortable furnishings

Roomy, attractive property with much potential. Layout would be improved with end tables to put a drink or book on. Kitchen lacked sufficient counter space for appliances and food prep. Loveseat uncomfortable and bed too tall (waist high). Linens need to be replaced. Eric was quick to respond to questions on VRBO prior to arrival. Great X-C skiing trails on lake.

Beautiful Lake getaway

Gorgeous views of Nancy Lake. Lots of grassy land for kids to run around and/or play games. The only difficult thing was that the grill is on the top deck so you have to take all of your meat, seasonings, toppings, etc. upstairs with you or cook upstairs and bring the meat or grilled protein downstairs. Washer and Dryer are a nice amenity. Will keep in mind for our next getaway.

Fun at the Lake

This VRBO is a beautiful location with wonderful swimming and water fun. There were many delightful surprises. For example, we could even watch the blue and gold Alaska Railroad train go by when out on the lake. The lodging is lovely and the owner was very gracious. I'd gladly come back and would even love to come again in the winter.
