Luxury home -Huge kitchen, living room, HOT TUB, & sauna in a private wooded lot

Find yourself amid the treetops in this beautiful, recently constructed custom home. Nestled away in a quiet hilltop neighborhood located just one mile from Alyeska Resort, this contemporary home provides the perfect setting for your Girdwood getaway.

Expansive windows feature unobstructed forest views. Enjoy an open and airy living and dining room with a 65" flat screen TV, and make yourself at home in a spacious and well-equipped kitchen. Just off the dining area you’ll find a deck with chairs and a grill. Grab a favorite book, settle in, and let yourself be lulled by the sounds of the forest and nearby Virgin Creek. Enjoy cozy radiant in-floor heat, WiFi, and a laundry room. Bedrooms are equipped with blackout blinds.

Indulge in the indoor hot sauna and outdoor hot tub!

The bottom level has its own small kitchen (with microwave and sink - no oven), queen bedroom, sauna, and comfortable area with a pullout couch and flat screen TV.

We welcome families! We have a collapsible travel crib and toys.

Other things to note
-Please note that this property is not available to host events unless prior approval (message host), and we allow no more than 14 guests on property at any time. There is an extra fee for events.
-Person making reservation and at least one person staying at the house must be age 25 or older.
-Sleeping arrangements: 9 guests can sleep in beds (2 queens in their own room, 1 queen and 1 twin in one room together, and 1 bunk bed), 2 guests can sleep on a queen air mattress, and 2 guests can sleep on a sofa queen bed in the basement.

Guests may not park RVs or trailers in driveway.

Due to the length and steepness of the driveway, guests should park on the street when snow or ice are present. The driveway is plowed following significant snowfall during the winter season.

There are no review since 2022 because the house was occupied full-time by the owners.

This has to be the best place we’ve stayed in girdwood. Always worried if pictures are deceiving, and this was not the case. Pictures are very accurate. And the open floor plan is very nice for large groups.

This property was excellent for our group of 8. There was a big open living area for us all to be in, a bathroom on every level, and plenty of room for cooking for a big group. The hot tub was amazing and clean and the sauna was wonderful for relaxing. It was a short 5 min drive to the Alyeska resort and located close to dining and grocery stores. The property owner had excellent communication and answered all questions we had in a very timely manner. 10/10 recommend!

Outstanding from check in to check out. The upstairs living area is very large and spacious, so it accommodated my entire extended family. Super clean and has everything you forgot to bring from home. The Property Manager was very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay at this home again.

My family and a few friend spent the weekend here to get away from our homes for awhile. The back deck and BBQ grill are fantastic. We sat out there and talked for hours. Quiet neighborhood. We will probably go there again next year. A wonderful time was had by all!!!

What a perfect home nestled in the hemlocks! Extremely clean, well appointed, comfortable, well located and just an overall great home for family with plenty of room for everyone!

Clean, spacious, private, well-Furnished, and nice location. The layout of the house is perfect for multi-family parties. Our party of 3 families found room to play music downstairs, work/study/sleep on the second level, and watch movies/play video games and cook upstairs all at the same time! Our group's ages were 14, 17, 20, 20, 48, 49, 50, 51, and 52 and we all had a complete blast! We hope to come back soon.

We had an awesome family stay at this Girdwood property. The location is ideal for both Seward, Anchorage, and some great local trails. The place felt like a tree house with its surrounding trees and the amenities were plenty. The kitchen and pantry were extremely well stocked and the internet was fast, which made work easy. I would not hesitate to return here if I were staying in Girdwood. If there were any feedback I would give the hosts it would be that the bunk beds should preferably be replaced with two twin size beds. The beds creaked a lot and are def not well suited for anyone outside of children under 12.

Wow, this home was wonderful. It was by far one of the cleanest properties I have stayed at, despite allowing pets, and everything looked brand new. Cute decor, comfortable, and lots of room! There are A LOT of stairs and three floors, so if you have bad knees it is probably not ideal. The manager was so nice, informative, and easy to get ahold of. You definitely feel like you are in the forest and when on the top floor it almost feels like a treehouse! The kitchen was awesome and had ample dishes and cooking supplies. The only thing that could possibly make it better would be a hot tub!

Everything was clean, comfortable, and cheerful. From the personal welcome sign to careful attention to detail (a hair dryer in each bathroom), the house was filled with lovely touches. The kitchen was stocked with an abundance of dishes, cooking equipment and spices. The bedrooms had soft linens; the bathrooms had excellent shampoo and soaps. Emily was extremely helpful, responsive, and friendly, even on her baby's due date. (I hope he makes his appearance soon!) Our family of six adults, three kids (one teen and two nearly-teens), and one dog had plenty of room to play all together (hide 'n seek was especially fun at night with the lights out), and also room for those who needed quiet time or peaceful puzzling. Sometimes, just sitting and watching the snow fall on the surrounding forest was perfect. We all wanted to stay longer and are trying to find a good time to come again. Thanks so much!
