Great Girdwood Property

The property was spacious, clean and neat. Perfect place for a ski trip with close access to the mountain. Love the beautiful mossy trees surrounding the property, and the Hot Tub was perfect for relaxing after a long ski day!

Beautiful authentic " Cabin in the woods"

It's nestled in the forest at the base of the mountain and ski lift. 3 floors and really really Cool. It's a big relief to walk into a property and know that it's clean! We didn't have to re wash dishes or cook ware. If I ever make it back to Girdwood AK, this is where I will stay.

Great Girdwood Getaway

Great quirky spot tucked into the woods in Girdwood. House easily accommodated our group of 6 including kids. Lots of room to hang out and appreciated the kitchen well stocked with pots/pans and spices. Great location with easy access to Virgin Creek Falls and the day lodge. Oven worked well as did the hot tub!

Lovely Girdwood Getaway

We spent a ski weekend with our family and enjoyed the house very much. The upper bedroom feels like your sleeping in the tree canopy. Plenty of beds and bedding, well-equipped kitchen, and quiet location.

Great base to ski at Alyeska

This home was perfect for a ski week. Very short drive to the resort and the town of Girdwood, and there was plenty of space for our group of 8. Well stocked kitchen. Disappointed that the hot tub was broken but they did let us know well in advance.
