About this property

Look no further! Anchorage's Best Stay is Here. Next to Downtown & Free Parking!

Nestled next to downtown, Eden On E Street is minutes to business and shopping districts, while feeling miles away. We are located in a family-friendly, residential neighborhood and we live in the upper level of this duplex. You might hear our footsteps and the sounds of daily living from time to time; however, your space downstairs is completely private, with a separate entrance. Guests and neighbors love the silence and calm of the area.

This entrance to the property takes you into a foyer, with the option to go "up" or "down" stairs. The "up" unit is our private home and the "down" unit is for guests. It is possible that we use this entry occasionally to access our home, but it is not common as we have an entrance on the opposite side of the house. The foyer will be accessed for cleaning, but your shoes, coats, etc. left in this area are completely safe!

There is plenty of off-street, FREE parking. A covered walkway from the parking area protects guests from most elements and allows for access to the downstairs unit. Upon entering the foyer, you will head down 7 steps to access your space. Don’t let the “downstairs” aspect scare you. This unit has been newly remodeled, outfitted with recessed and dimmable LED lighting throughout, and plenty of windows to let the outside in. Depending on the season, you may prefer a little darkness. In the summer months, “the land of the midnight sun” might be a little confusing for some, so each bedroom is equipped with shades AND blackout curtains to ensure a good night's rest. The home is equipped with automated locks for ease of entry and security.

If you are a first-time visitor to our State, or a "sourdough", you know Alaska is stunning and massive. You will probably be spending your days exploring its wonders. But, after a long day of fun, you need a clean, comfortable, and private space to call home. Eden On E Street is the perfect spot. There are two queen rooms and another with two twins; perfect for children or extra travelers in your group.

The living room and dining area can accommodate all in your party, with comfort and convenience. An electric fireplace can help set just the right mood as you unwind after a busy day of experiencing all that Anchorage and Alaska have to offer. The newly remodeled and fully equipped kitchen provides everything you need to enjoy a home-cooked meal or try your hand at preparing some world-class Alaska seafood, local produce, and artisanal fare. If you want to hit a home run with friends and family just ask about Mercedes' world-famous halibut chowder and Jay’s Slammin’ Salmon Cakes!

If outdoor cooking is more your speed, a BBQ will be available for guests as well as a fire pit (both seasonal and as State and Municipal Emergency Orders allow). A beautiful yard is also available for the kids to play (again, seasonal).

If a relaxing bath is more your speed at the end of the day, we’ve got you covered. All bath and shower products are provided. Pack a little lighter and leave your body wash, shampoo, conditioner, hand sanitizer, blow dryer, hair straightener, towels, and make-up remover at home! We have plenty of everything for you.

Wonderful First Alaska Vacation

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The property is just as described and very clean. The home was equipped with everything we needed and more. The beds were very comfortable, and we appreciated the black-out curtains. We enjoyed our time in this quiet neighborhood, and Mercedes was an excellent host.

Fabulous stay.

Mercedes house was absolutely beautiful, accommodating, and very well equipped. It had everything we could've possibly needed and then some. She went beyond making sure that we had anything we needed ahead of time And she gave us Weather updates and check to make sure we had everything we needed to.

Great property conveniently located

My wife and two kids stayed at this property for 2 nights. This house was spotless, filled with all sorts of modern conveniences, and had very comfortable beds. To top it all off the host was very gracious and helpful. I would highly recommend this home to stay in. I will stay here for my next Anchorage trip!

Visiting Anchorage

We had such a lovely stay at this home, which we used as a starting point before Denali and a cruise. Mercedes clearly thought of everything. It was one of the best homes that we have stayed at. It was clean, comfortable and well appointed. I would definitely return another time in Anchorage.

Wonderful host, wonderful property

This was just an all around great experience for our family. Host was easy to communicate from booking all the way through the stay. She welcomed us personally into the property, and responses to every question and need immediately. The property is better than advertised. Great location to airport, activities, shopping. Clean inside and out, great outdoor landscaping, and plenty of indoor items for kitchen use, bathing, games, etc. would highly recommend staying here. This is a premium experience

Quick Family of 5 Stay before departing Anchorage

Hosts were wonderful to communicate with before and during our families visit at their home. The house is supplied with everything you need (some items in small quantity, ie plates, cups, etc) though there is a dish washer with pods provided. For families to note, they have a nice yard with lovely flowers and sitting area and the property is located next to a city park that our children loved. Would recommend!

Pleasure in Eden

Start to finish - everything was first class!!! Mercedes met us and personally walked us through her lovely home. First and most important - the home is VERY comfortable. The beds, linens, pillow were great. Secondly, The home was very clean. Probably the cleanest I have stayed in. Thirdly, Mercedes checks in after your first night to make sure all is going well. I have never stayed in a place where so much attention is paid to detail. The snacks were nice, the large TV fun for late night movies and the Kerug coffee pot was very nice and easy to work. Oh, I forgot, Mercedes is fantastic at providing advice on local sites, things to do and places to go. You won't find a better place to stay while visiting Anchorage. Thanks for everything Mercedes! We hope our paths will cross again. Diana & Dick H.

Run, don’t walk TO this AMAZING rental!

This is by far in the top 3 VRBO’s I have stayed in. Mercedes is absolutely wonderful from start to finish! The communication is impeccable and the details she sees to are top notch. Inside the rental you are going to find every detail you can think of; from comfy mattresses and bedding to every little thing you could need in the kitchen. The house is in a great location. Easy to get to downtown and if you have kids there is a park right at the end of the road. Uber was very easy in and out of the property and Mercedes even has a way for them to spot the house. Literally you can NOT go wrong at this wonderful spot. I almost don’t want to keep bragging because I want it all for myself the next time I visit Anchorage, but that wouldn’t really be fair to all of you who would be missing out on one of the absolute BEST rentals around! Thank you Mercedes!

Even better than expected

It was our first time renting a property instead of a hotel. We saw the pictures and video of the property and it was even better than we expected. Our hostess was wonderful and made the whole process easy. She was very welcoming and thought of everything! The location is great, the home clean, cozy and has everything you need! We absolutely give our stay 5 out of 5 stars and would recommend to anyone visiting Anchorage. We are definitely staying here next vacation!

Perfect plact to stay in Anchorage

From the begining Mercedes was very responsive and an excellent communicator. Following her easy instructions brought us to an appealing navy-blue house. It has easy keycode access leading to a pretty, light, clean, welcoming space. There are so many thoughtful touches throughout the house from the welcome note to the soft rugs in the bedrooms, to the informative labels all over. It is a great location, comfortable, and welcoming. Mercedes is very freindly and we would be happy to stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Mercedes

Host profile image
I am your primary host, Mercedes. I'm a 5th generation Alaskan and love to share my knowledge of the State with anyone that will listen! I have been in the business of public service as well as hospitality throughout the stages of my life, and now as a retiree, excited to work full-time in providing you the best possible experience while you are visiting us.

My husband, Jay, is also available to assist you during our visit. He retired from the US Army in 2006, and his 20+ years in the military took him across the USA and overseas. After once being stationed in Alaska, he returned to make it his permanent home. Alaska has a way of drawing you back!

Our first priority in this business is you, the guest. It is you that allows us to do what we love to do. After a long day of soaking up the wonders of Alaska, you need to return to a basecamp with all of the amenities of home. You need convenience, comfort, a touch of class, and privacy. That is what we provide.

When we aren't working to ensure our guests have premier accommodations, we are outdoors enjoying everything Alaska has to offer. In the summertime, we take full advantage of the 20 hours of daylight and we definitely make hay while the sun is up! In the wintertime, we shift gears - and clothing - and do the same thing!

We believe our State will capture your heart and imagination. We know that for some, Alaska is a once-in-a-lifetime, bucket list experience and we are here to help you make it unforgettable.

Why they chose this property

After our marriage in May 2019, we searched for months until we found this property and made it our home. Shortly after, the pandemic struck, we saw this as an opportunity. After nearly a year of remodeling, the transformation of Eden on E Street was born. We envisioned a place where we could host our family and friends, but also those traveling to Alaska.

Eden on E Street is not only beautiful, but it is located in one of the most convenient locations in the city. Known as the "South Addition", because it is just south of downtown, this neighborhood is kind, stable, and family-friendly.

Weather permitting, you can walk to the center of the city in 20 minutes. You can drive there in 3 minutes. A stroll to the end of our street gets you to the Valley of the Moon Park - a perfect place for picnics that includes "the rocket ship" playground for children. You can access hundreds of miles of paved trails from this park to ski, walk, roll, cycle...you name it! It wraps through the woods, along waterways, near wildlife, and views of snowcapped mountains. Six blocks in the other direction lands you at the Delaney Park Strip. Known to locals as "The Park Strip", this incredible spot is 11 blocks of fun! You can find hockey, skating, kite flying, music, dog sledding, monuments, and even reindeer... just about anything at any time of the year!

Business travelers have the convenience of not only the close proximity to downtown but also mid-town; the growing business district of the city. Digital Nomads find our location perfect as well due to our high-speed internet for working "at home", as well as easy access to all Anchorage offers when not on the clock.
