Honeymoon Happiness
Driving into the neighborhood of the Cottage made us feel at home. The property is very inviting and cozy. The inside of the cottage is bright and welcoming. The kitchen is perfect size for the 2 of us and everything was cleaned, labeled and ready to use. The bed is very comfortable and the mountain view from the bedroom is amazing! We enjoyed being able to walk up to the front yard area to enjoy our coffee and more of the view also. Almost every day of our stay we got to see moose in the yard grazing on willow. This cottage really made us feel like we were in Alaska! I highly recommend staying here for almost any occasion. The accessibility to shops, stores and tourist areas are within 5-15 minutes away, and a nice in between drive to Denali, and Seward and everywhere in between! The host family is very pleasant and kind, you can really tell they put their heart into the Wild Rose Cottage. We can’t wait to come back and visit soon! Thank you Wild Rose Cottage for being a big part of our amazing Honeymoon!

The BEST ever!
The cottage was beautifully decorated with all the things to make you feel at home. It was super clean and had everything you could need. The view was spectacular from the bluff. We enjoyed sitting there looking at nature. Added bonus was we had family close by. Lisa was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed visiting with her. Hopefully we will be able to plan a return visit soon.

Beautiful Property With Excellent Management
This is an incredible place to stay with everything my son and I could need. It had a comfortable bed, full and well appointed kitchen, and washer/dryer. I appreciate all the little details that the host provided. They were also extremely friendly and we felt welcome. Thank you so much! This was the best rental we had in our two weeks in Alaska.

Amazing property, people and location
Just a great experience for us. Beautiful cottage, very well decorated and in a perfect location for exploring in Alaska. The owner (and her family) was no less amazing and made us feel right at home. We loved our time here and are most appreciative to Lisa and family for the use of their beautiful cottage and the great Alaska hospitality. Big thanks!

Five Stars All Around!
Wild Rose Cottage was the perfect place to stay for a couple of days. Lisa has truly thought of everything - the simple things like plenty of towels, soap, well-equipped kitchen. The extra touches like a coffee station, snacks, ziplock bags, and LOTS of travel brochures and info about Alaska. The view over the bluff is just stunning, and the outdoor patio to sit and hang out is perfect. Definitely one of the best VRBOs we have stayed at!

As far as the property goes it was very welcoming and so many cute finishing touches. She definitely thought of everything. The bed was super comfortable and it was a relaxing place to be. The short walk to the view was absolutely stunning. Just know if you go here the rules are VERY STRICT. Quiet time is 10pm which we knew. We went out to eat with family then they checked the place out (they live close, 1.5 miles, and always looking for recommendations for friends). They beeped their horn at 10:04 when leaving (like love you bye, 3 beeps) and within 2 minutes we had a message reminding us it’s quiet time and only 2 visitors allowed. Our visitors weren’t there long at all and we were super quiet just ending the night. The host drove by in a side by side and kept an eye on the property every time. Another time our family dropped us off and we looked over and the host was in the driveway looking at us. It always felt like we were being watched. They never walked over and introduced themselves so we thought it was a bit odd. We left the place very clean and were respectful of the space but if you stay here don’t honk your horn. And the bugs are terrible so lots of bug spray and don’t plan to be outside.

The cottage was well stocked beyond expectations and super clean. Plenty of utensils for cooking, games, books to read, info on local attractions and great local coffee. Bed was comfortable. Everything functioned properly. Property owners were there to great us, including their grandkids - nice touch. This cottage is where we will stay when visiting our family in Wasilla.

Beautiful Homey Cabin
The property manager, Lisa goes over and beyond the accommodations. They think of everything! Extremely clean and bed is super comfortable. Definitely by far the best VRBO place we have stayed at and if we ever get back out to Alaska, we will be renting this wonderful cabin again. Highly recommended!

Absolutely Perfect!
Wonderful from start to finish! Lisa is great, easy communication and she made us feel so welcome in this adorable cottage. This was the perfect home base for our family of four as we explored the beautiful Matanuska Valley, the cottage had absolutely everything we needed and more. Fully stocked kitchen, laundry, comfortable beds, games for the kids, great outdoor space. Highly recommend!
