An excellent find in Eagle River

My girlfriend and I were looking for a decadent weekend stay near Anchorage, and the Ram Valley Inn fit the bill! A simple but comfortable guest suite, with all the appointments of home, along with one of the best hot tubs we've ever found and a sweeping mountain view. Highly recommended!

Awesome VRBO!!

Everything about this place is awesome. The view from the hot tub is breathtaking. The landscaping is beautiful. 20 minutes from Anchorage. Far better than staying at a hotel. Couldn't ask for better hosts. Nikki asked if there was anything she could do to make our stay better. I told her if she could make it stop raining that would be great. A half hour later it stopped raining and the sun was shining!! 😁 Thank you so much for everything!!

Beautiful area

A nice place to stay, Beautiful country, very helpful and informative hosts. There are a few bells and whistles that have lost their new polish but overall a great experience. The home above the rental unit has some noise from the family and dogs moving about but this is not an issue at night. Since we are awake and out and about during the day it’s of little concern. The bed frame squeaks real bad to the point if either of us roll over we both wake up.

So beautiful!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Alaska and this property was everything we wanted and more. The views are impeccable and the guest area is cozy and welcoming. The hot tub has a great view of the mountains while you enjoy your morning coffee and the drive and accessibility is easy from Anchorage. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place

At first glance we were a little nervous with how close we were to the hosts and that we were just on the bottom floor of their home. But we never saw them, it was quiet, the hot tub was wonderful, and we had a kitty visitor every night :) I would highly recommend this home-y stay!

Great place

As advertised. Very clean. Hot tub worked and was great after a day of hiking. Bed and couch were very comfortable. An air mattress was supplied but we didn’t need it since the couch was comfy. Appliances were perfect for breakfast and quick meals, but probably not large enough to do a big meal. No dining room table but a good coffee table to eat a quick meal on. Bathroom had plenty of room. Feels very private even though hosts are upstairs.

Awesome Eagle River Space

We loved our short stay in Eagle River! The views from the hot tub and backyard were beautiful. The inside of the home is very comfortable and cozy with a living room space and newly updated kitchen. The owners live above but we didn’t see them much so it definitely is a private space. It was awesome to be just 30 minutes from Anchorage so we could head into town for the day and stay for dinner. However, Eagle River has some nice hikes and views close by. We definitely recommend this place and hope to be back someday!

Nice, quiet location

We had a real nice stay with Nicole and Jacob. Nice and quiet with some cool mountain views. I enjoyed my morning visits with Jenny the cat (we nicknamed her Bear Snack) while drinking my coffee. We really didn't need anything but the hosts seemed receptive, contacting us mid trip to see how we were doing. I'd def recommend staying here.

We had an amazing time. Wish there would have been 3 robes instead of 2 since we had booked for 3 adults and the TV log in was confusing but the hot tub was to die for amazing views and awesome experiences.

Nice stay just out of the city

We came to Alaska for a short weekend. We didn’t want to stay in the city or at a hotel and we saw this gem. It is a very nice spot with good views. It’s not far from anchorage either.

Relaxing in Nature

The property is beautiful and conveniently located totown while also being tucked away in an amazing natural oasis with the river and nature center just down the street. The hot tub is a rare gem in the area and was huge with a lot of fun bells and whistles to make it a truly luxurious experience. The hosts are extremely professional and thoughtful. Communications were quick and easy. We look forward to our next visit!

Amazing space 20 minutes from Anchorage.

This adorable space has everything you need. The hosts thoughtfully left out a basket of snacks which helped since we didn’t arrive until about 2 am. The bed was comfy, the shower was hot and the hot tub was an amazing way to relax after a day of travel and hiking. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anybody asking.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole Szajkowski

We and our three boys were all born and raised in Alaska. We enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities in all four seasons of this wonderful state. Our home is located in the beautiful foothills of the Chugach Mountains in south-central Alaska.

Why they chose this property

Nestled among 7,000 foot peaks, towering waterfalls, and forests of birch and aspen, the Ram Valley Inn is surrounded by the third largest state park in America, the Chugach State Park. Within a quarter mile proximity to the Historic Iditarod trail and glacier-fed Eagle River, we are located in the Upper Eagle River Valley. We are a convenient 45 minute drive from Anchorage International Airport, 10 minute drive into Eagle River, and 2 hour to the Kenai Peninsula.

What makes this property unique

Minutes away you will find unlimited access to the surrounding half-million acre Park from both the North Fork Trailhead, and the Eagle River Nature Center via the Crow Pass National Historic Trail - one of the more popular local trails, an early gateway into interior Alaska, and historic Iditarod supply route. A multitude of local outdoor opportunities await, some of the most accessible hiking, skiing, camping, wildlife viewing, snow machining, rafting, and climbing. You may also find endless photography opportunities. From valley floor to rim, rugged landscapes are decorated in rock and alpine tundra. Visitors of this area take home memories of high alpine wildflowers, local wildlife, salmon returning up the Eagle River to spawn, soaring eagles, roaring glacier-fed rivers, the howl of a wolf, unrivaled mountainous vistas, sheep and goats grazing the alpine meadows, moose, bears, and the occasional lynx and coyote.
