About this property

Exceptional Accommodations for Larger Families & Groups

The Home:
With 3100 sq ft of living space, 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, Baxter crest can comfortably accommodate larger families and groups. The open-concept design, huge chef’s kitchen, sprawling outdoor deck and patio make this home perfect for entertaining.

The Amenities:
This home is packed with amenities and extras! Have morning coffee around the AMAZING outdoor natural gas fire pit, cook a meal in the fully stocked gourmet kitchen, watch a movie on one of the large screen TVs or relax in the expansive master suite with spa-like bathroom and Jacuzzi tub. We don’t suggest spending much time indoors while visiting Alaska, but if you must, this is the place to be!

The Location:
The home is in an exclusive 7-home cul-de-sac neighborhood that is convenient to everything the city has to offer. We are just minutes from the airport and downtown, yet Alaskan wilderness can be found right outside the doorstep! Guests can walk to Baxter Bog hiking trails, Cheney Lake and the Alaska Botanical Gardens. You are almost guaranteed to see moose hanging around the home!

The Owner/Manager:
Troy is a 25-year military officer with an eye for detail and an insistence that everything is perfect. Book with confidence and let us handle the details!

Wonderful house in Anchorage

We’re a group of 9 and the house suited our needs perfectly. It’s very spacious and open. The house was spotless upon arrival, the beds were all comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The fire pit in the back was a nice bonus. We highly recommend this house for a stay in Anchorage.

Wonderful large home for family trip

We came to Anchorage for a wedding and stayed five days. The host was wonderful, accommodating and met with a member of our party at arrival. The home is perfect for a large family and was spotless. Beds were all very comfortable. Everyone in our party loved it. In a quiet cul-de-sac, convenient to everything.

Family Vacation

Absolutely wonderful family vacation! The house was ideal for our family with ages ranging from 3 months to 60 plus and lots of ages in between! Beautiful home with many amenities and an amazing fire pit. Ideally located close to airport, town, grocery stores, restaurants and more. Troy and Dawn were incredibly easy to work with and responded in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend this home!
