This vrbo was family friendly, clean, centrally located, and had everything we needed for our stay. The host was great about responding quickly and even offered information on things to do in the area.
Stayed one night in Anchorage the night before flying home.This property is clean, well laid out and an excellent location for both exploring around Anchorage as well as getting to airport. Highly recommend this property.
Very comfortable place close to Anchorage airport. We enjoyed our stay. Host was very accommodating, offered a late checkout closer to our flight departure time as well as airport shuttle service - all for a reasonable fee. Recommended!
Great place and neighborhood. Parking was a bit inconvenient.

The property was amazing!!! Tucked in a quiet spot just off a main road. It was easy in, an easy stay, and an easy out! The host went well above my expectations to communicate and make clear any part of the process. I will definitely stay again!!!
I love the neighborhood, it felt very safe and comfortable. Everything was great, the only thing that I would suggest is if there was a vacuum and/or broom that was accessible to make clean up a bit easier.
We stayed at Puffin Inn at arrival and were supposed to have stayed the day of departure but that hotel was very old, dirty and expensive so we cancelled the departure night and found this VRBO. It was so much better than the hotel. We were able to relax and hang out for the night instead of being stuck in a dirty old hotel room. Clean, easy to check in and a good end to our vacation.

Good place. Bad parking, not great at getting back with you
Jason was a wonderful host and his space is beautiful! He was very attentive to items I needed during my stay and was kind enough to accommodate a late checkout to help me. He was even receptive to suggestions for future guests. I’m grateful for his hospitality and would definitely stay again.
