    Great spot in Girdwood

    Easy access and well managed and super clean apartment. The hot tub is amazing and a great way to start your recovery from a day on the slopes, or whatever your activities! The proximity to the Double Musky was great for a quick drop in and far enough from the highway to not hear the noise! Thank you for a great stay!

    Great Place to Stay

    The place was easy to find, clean, and had what we needed. Was nice to have coffee grounds and creamer for the mornings. Only thing I would change is for the bedding to be washed in a scent free laundry detergent. I know some people love the smell of laundry detergent and dryer sheets, but to me (and my family) it is over powering and an instant headache.

    Perfectly adorable place. Looks just like the photos. Beautiful woodwork and super clean. We walked to dinner directly across the street at the Double Musky and came back to relax in the hot tub after a perfect day of skiing. Hosts were very friendly. We will definitely stay here again.

    Cozy Forrest BNB

    Perfect little bnb tucked back in a nice wooded area - across from a wonderful restaurant (double musky) and a trail that takes you right into town. I’ve stayed in Girdwood plenty of times being an Alaskan resident and I’d have to say this is my new favorite spot. Jake and Rachel were great and i definitely will be staying here again!

    Location, Location, Location outweighs some other items

    Location was top notch, especially when skiing. We paid for 2 bathrooms and only one bath worked, of course not the master bath. I was told ahead of time that was all fixed. I would suggest a better cleaning service as their were cob webs, dust, dirty windows and some items on the ground that were overlooked. Missing piece on the microwave but it worked and was fine.

    Great place, little rule heavy.

    Had a great time, very nice clean place, only gripe I had was there was an 11pm closed hot tub time that I wasn’t aware of when I booked and I don’t think people using it would disturb any other guests unless rhey were wasted making noise. Having said that, I get it if they were having issues with that a lot, just would have been nice to know before I booked since we usually like to go to the hot tub after a show when we are in town. Great place tho, you’ll love it.

    Incredible Couples Getaway

    My partner and I had an awesome time at this Aleyska ski-and-stay. The property was easy to find, extremely clean, the bed was so soft, and it was well-stocked with coffee and condiments to get us ready to go on early-morning, in-the-dark Alaska adventures. I would highly recommend this as a romantic, relaxing couple's getaway.
