We loved the location and how much space we had for all 3 of us. The bathroom Mirror was on the floor, but we could still use it as a full length. No blender or ice maker, but we made due with what we had. If you use the tub make sure to grab a butter knife to get the plug out. Our overall trip was good though. We enjoyed the restaurants and the breweries. Thanks so much Heidi! I will definitely book with you again.

The place was clean with lots of living room space.It was a lower unit and was dark.It basically had no deck space to be able to hang outside.The second bedroom beds were uncomfortable and the room was dark.I probably wouldn’t stay here again!

Very comfortable home! Great location! Definitely need to eat at chair 5 delicious!!! It is a bottom unit so you can hear the unit above at times. Didn't bother us at all.

Comfortable stay, perfect location for walking to Alyeska and biking. Plenty of towels and toiletries. Kitchen lacking some essentials like coffee pot, bottle opener/cork screw, plenty of dishes and pans though. Bathtub had a ring of dirt so did not use it and only one chair on back deck, so really no place to sit outside. Be aware this is a downstairs unit, listing is not super clear on that. I think it would be the perfect winter ski crash pad. The wii was fun and plenty of games.

We loved our stay at this VRBO in Girdwood, AK. The home was updated and had everything we needed. Very convenient to everything in Girdwood and just up the road from Alyeska resort. It is also just a short 30 minute drive from Anchorage. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend if you are visiting.

Thoughtfully decorated modern place in great neighborhood. The only disappointment is that the blinds / curtains didn’t block light in the bedroom which was a problem considering Sun doesn’t really set , it was a problem falling asleep.otherwise there was attention paid to all the other detail.

Had a wonderful stay in Girdwood. Plenty of space, huge sitting area and kitchen. Had 4 friends together and no issues sharing the huge bathroom. A privacy curtain should probably be added to the back bathroom door window though to avoid anyone outside looking in. Thanks for allowing us to make some incredible memories.

The living room is pretty spacious. WiFi unfortunately wasn't working while we were there even though we tried to reset the router. Communication and check in were great. Location is close to downtown and some in our group even saw a mama bear and cub nearby!
