Great Anchorage location
This is a great Anchorage location that comfortably slept our group of 7 (we had out of town guests - too many to host at our place). Love the expanding dining table! Constructive feedback: The kitchen could use a utensils update... we ended up bringing our own measuring cups and some other kitchen items, plus larger fans because some windows did not open.

Hi Jen, we appreciate your feedback about your stay, and we reached out to the homeowner for their insights. Here's what they wanted to share: -"Thank you for your positive comments about the location. -We provide a complimentary allocation of towels. In each bedroom, there's a full set of towels for two guests. For a three-bedroom unit accommodating up to seven guests, we provide three complete sets of towels and washcloths. Our attentive staff is on-site and readily available for any guest requests or assistance. -No guest assistance requests were received during your stay, and previous summer guests encountered no issues. We'll review and stock the kitchen utensils for meal preparation. While we usually interact with guests to provide recommendations for local attractions and dining, we didn't have the opportunity with these guests. Be assured, we were available throughout their stay to address any concerns or questions. -Rest assured, we were available throughout their entire visit to assist with any concerns or questions they might have had. Our commitment to all our guests is to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests as evidenced in all other reviews."

Beautiful views but dated property
The views are as pictured, but the property is dated and in need of updating. Table legs are very unstable, deck boards are rotting and feel like someone will fall through, cabinet doors are wonky, door handles are loose, master bath toilet clogs all the time for no reason, whole house lost water for a few minutes, several windows don’t open anymore, etc. It should also be added to the listing that the owner lives downstairs. While he’s friendly and responds right away when there are problems, he is quite loud and can often be heard on the phone, coughing, or watching tv. The check-out instructions are lengthy and you have to clean half the property yourself after paying cleaning fees, and they threaten additional charges if you don’t. It’s also frustrating that the whole booking is handled through a separate management company, and you can’t access info through VRBO and need to make an additional account. The kitchen was well stocked (but dated pans/utensils) and the property was very clean. But the pictures make it look nicer than it is, and the description of it being a home to yourself is misleading.

Phenomenal Rustic Aeronautical Home
This place is tucked in a nice quite neighborhood. You are right on the airstrip and will definitely see a take off or two during your stay. The house is situated exactly for what we needed. 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and enough space to stretch out and relax after a full day of activities. We will definitely check for availability next time we come to Anchorage.

Awesome location
We throughly enjoyed the house. Just note there are 2 flights of stairs to carry up luggage. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. Location was convenient to everything including the airport. We would definitely stay again.

Our team enjoyed our stay in Anchorage. The house was conveniently located near the airport and downtown. The house had all the necessary ammenities. We very much enjoyed watching the small airplanes taking off and landing from the second floor balcony.

Family rallied in Anchorage
We rallied the family together in Anchorage for a family visit with our military son. This home allowed us to bring many generations together due to number of bedrooms and additional sleeping areas. It was spacious and had great views. A bit dated but very clean. Perk was having a landing strip in your front yard with the sound beyond that view. Not next to base but it was a short drive! We would stay here again!

Fun Property!
What a fun property! The airstrip in front of it was entertaining! Small view of the ocean on a clear day and mountains. If you like peace and quiet this is a great stay!

Fun place!
We rented this as part of our Alaskan Honeymoon. The place is really unique and has tons of space, would be great for a family trip. We even saw a moose in the backyard which was neat! We didn't know this but wish it was listed that the owner stays in the bottom garage half of the place. He's very friendly, but you do hear him a bit and he takes his plane out frequently which is kind of cool but also noisy. The place also gets a ton of light and could use better room darkening curtains for the Alaskan summers. Overall it was a good stay and it a good location especially if you don't want to stay in the city itself.

Great time!!
We had a great time and Tony was such a fun character to talk to. I normally don’t like interacting with the homeowners, but Tony was delightful and helpful.
