Spacious and cozy at the same time!
When the moment you walk in the door, you feel at home. The view from the living room was a real winter wonderland. Their accommodations were amazing, and the owners were very welcoming and informative. They had all the extra touches. I would highly recommend this home for your next day. I know when I visit Girdwood again I will be giving them a call.

Family Reunion
Wonderful home, replete with amenities, appliances, and comforts. Excellent sledding hill right out the front door, with lots of gear provided on site. The hosts were especially helpful, friendly and hospitable, and facilitated multiple plans for activities, to include a professional photographer. Overall a fabulous experience, thanks to great hosts and a fantastic home!

Awesome home and hosts, we had an incredible family vacation here. I highly recommend this home if you have a big family that wants to all stay in the same place. With 3 floors there was plenty of space, all well-kept and modern.

Great home!
We had a group of 7 adults. Plenty of room, I don't think we even used the lower "apartment" area. The owners were very communicative and open to ideas we may have had regarding the check-in process.We had everything we needed for dinners we made at the house. Usually, we find that very basic things are discarded or taken that the previous renters may have left.(ie-seasonings, canned goods, beer!) This was not the case here. Which is nice, considering there isn't a full grocery in town. Thanks for a great time and we will suggest to any of our friends wanting to come out to Girdwood to make some memories in your home.

Had a wonderful experience staying here for our annual friend’s ski trip. The property was very comfortable for our group of 10 adults. Excellent location within a short drive to Alyeska resort and the restaurants in Girdwood. Our hosts, Karen and Terry, were also very accommodating, ensuring we had everything required during our stay. Would definitely recommend!

Our stay at the Girdwood house on 257 Echo Ridge Dr was truly amazing. The house was perfect for 7 adults and 4 children with plenty of family space and with the most beautiful views that changed everyday with the weather. All in all it was the perfect house and made our family trip very memorable experience.We definitely will come back.

Comfortable and Quiet.
This house was everything we needed. It was very well stocked so meal prep was easy. We had a large group and everyone was comfortable. The downstairs queen bedroom could use a better privacy door and it would be nice to have some blinds on the upper windows in the upstairs master bath. Not a huge issue we made it work.

Luxurious Mountain Retreat
Echo Ridge Mountain Retreat is everything in a luxury home you could ask for! The scenery was spectacular and the home furnishings were high end decor. Everything was immaculate and the kitchen was stocked with basic things you need for a weekend or a long week! The hot tub was cozy and a big hit. Plenty of games and a foosball table for after ski tournaments. Alyeska mountain is just a few minutes away. We enjoyed our stay so much, we extended an extra day.
