Large home in a very quiet neighborhood. Owner is very responsive and friendly. Recommend this home for a vacation stay. Would rebook in the future if staying in vicinity of Wasilla.
This is a beautiful, comfortable home in a quiet neighborhood with an open feeling landscape. It's isolated from traffic, but at the same time very convenient to ammenities. Shopping and restaurants are only minutes away.The owner was accomodating, and we enjoyed our stay.I definitely recommend this property.
We had a lovely stay recently! The home is situated in a beautiful development. The kids absolutely loved playing on the swing set after a long day of driving...inside, the beds are very comfortable. The living room is stunning with floor to ceiling windows and the kids absolutely enjoyed the tv selections! The kitchen is bequtiful too.
We really enjoyed how relativity centralized this location is..an hour from anchorage, talkeetna, and roughly half hour from palmer. Overall, beautiful modern cozy home we highly recommend
The listing was advertised as a whole home. Not the case basically its rooms in his house. Room still had wet carpet from shampooing. Blankets had what looked like blood stains on them. Would definitely not recommend to anyone. We ended up leaving and going to find another place to stay. And I still was never refunded for any of the night's we paid for.

Not the whole house
You will be staying in two rooms on the bottom of the house. The owners have rooms upstairs. The owners go camping when the house is rented out, and come back often to shower and reload the camper. They do communicate well and let you know what days they will be there. But still very weird to have children running though the house that you rented.
It was great! We had so much fun relaxing in the hot tub. Also the home is beautiful. Its a shared house time experience but you'd hardly even know. The hosts give plenty of privacy and make you feel very welcome. All amenities where met and comfort was prevalent. Great place to stay if you plan to take in Hatchers Pass.
We had a wonderful stay! The hosts were very accommodating, very nice, and very helpful. The home was clean and nice even though they were going through renovations. Great wifi and television service! The hot tub was wonderful! The only thing we wished had been more explained or different was breakfast. The one (out of 5 days) we had was great, but we never knew if we should tell them when we would like to have it or if they were going to make it.
