Cozy and Quiet

Great property and location. I worked from this home for a week and it was just perfect. I had everything I needed, and more. The pictures represent the space well and it was clean in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. Close access to shopping and recreation. I would love to return here again.

Lovely studio

The studio was very cute and comfortable! The neighborhood was great! We were visiting Anchorage for my nephew’s high school graduation. I stayed there with my mom. The location was very convenient to my brother’s house, Fred Meyer, and downtown Anchorage. We had a minor problem with the heat the first night. But Julie was able to address it the next morning. It is a studio underneath the main house with access to it through the garage. There were a few things that were difficult to access for short people without a step stool. (I’m 5’2” and my mom is 4’10”). The microwave is on top of a nearly full size refrigerator… but we made do. Also being on the ground floor you could hear the movements of the occupants of the main house…. But we got used to that over time. I would definitely recommend and next time I’m in Anchorage - would stay here again.

Delightful suite

Words just cannot describe fully the quality of this studio unit. Fresh, clean, bright, spacious and decorated with a coastal farmhouse motiff. The owners have gone the extra mile to make sure everything is provided. Just bring yourself, suitcase and food. Very nice quiet neighborhood. Julie and Charles are great hosts and always available. Five stars is not good enough.

Delightful!

Accommodations for this vacation rental in Anchorage were very, very comfortable. It was surprisingly spacious for a studio with a bright, beautiful view of the mountains on a clear day. The decor was delightful with lots of attention to detail. If it’s cool, you’ll have a convenient gas fireplace and cozy soft blankets to take the chill off with a massive TV to entertain you. And I can’t say enough about the hosts who took care of any and all my needs and whose company I enjoyed so much! This vacation unit is a gem!
