Blocks from Downtown at Westchester Lagoon

We are ready to host you today! We've instituted additional cleaning procedures to ensure a clean and welcoming apartment for your visit. We've cleaned hard surfaces with anti-bacterial sprays. Soft surfaces, furniture & throw pillows are treated with anti-bacterial fabric sprays.

Located next to popular Westchester Lagoon and The Coastal Trail, this top floor apartment is also minutes from downtown by car, bike, or your feet! If you have a vehicle, you'll have a parking spot reserved just for you. The unit has a private entrance accessed by two flights of exterior stairs.

When you are away from home, we want you to feel welcome and comfortable while you visit our wonderful and adventurous city. We are committed to hosting you and providing a warm and welcoming home, whether you are here for fun, business, or both. Our winter wonderland is a beautiful time to visit Alaska!

Adventure around the city, or relax inside logging in to watch your favorite shows on Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon. With two internet connected TVs (one in the main bedroom), you and your companions have unlimited options.

Our apartment has two bedrooms (now with a queen bed in each as of Oct 2019), a jacuzzi bathtub, full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, one full bath and one half bath, and a washer and dryer in the unit. We've stocked our Keurig machine and filled the refrigerator with complimentary bottled water.

This is the first of two rentals that we host in our building. The second one "New remodeled unit next to Downtown at Westchester" opened in December 2019. It was designed and furnished with guests in our minds.

As a born and raised Alaskan, nothing beats the beauty and winter recreation opportunities of Alaska!

You'll have the entire 900 Sq Ft apartment to yourself.

There is a shared deck to relax on while watching the sunset and waterfowl.

There are two flights of exterior stairs to access the apartment.

Located in a four-plex with private off street parking. One assigned parking spot with booking.

Outstanding rental. Very well appointed, very spacious. Easy lyft to downtown or a nice 22 min walk. Quiet neighborhood. Outside is a little beat up but to be expected with Alaska's weather. Hosts were quick to respond to communications.

Great Apartment

Great cosy apartment. Lots of amenities supplied including coffee, oats, oil, condiments etc. Lots of cooking utensils and ability to cook in house if needed. Washing machine/dryer with washing powder supplied. About a 30 minute walk into the heart of town. Dan and Christine live on site and were very helpful with any query. Lovely walks nearby to see wildlife. Highly recommend to stay here.

Cozy place to relax

We came to anchorage for the state gymnastics competition. This apartment was clean and cozy and offered us a nice place to get ready for the big event as well as a place to unwind afterwards. We ate 1/3 of our meals at the apartment. The kitchen was stocked nicely
