Creekside Getaway: On the Creek in Anchorage

Rare to find. Alaskan Nordic creek-side retreat in the woods. Centrally located in Anchorage with direct access to Campbell Creek and Campbell Creek Trail which is paved and offers access to over 100 miles of trail system throughout Anchorage. Under 10 min to airport, downtown, hospitals, shopping, dining, bars and recreation!

- Professionally cleaned before each stay.

- Professionally cleaned linens using commercial hospital-grade sanitizing washers and dryers.

- Private off-street parking

Alaska Nordic | Creek Chalet no.3 is a newly remodeled (July 2023) beautiful and tranquil property located in a serene corner of the forest right in Anchorage. It is incredibly peaceful in the snowy months and inviting to the outdoors in the summer months.

The space is styled in Nordic fashion with a play on American 1950's retro; simple, clean and elegant. 1bd/1ba chalet. Luxury linens, high quality mattresses and location right on the trail hard to beat.

NOTE: This space sleeps 4. The single room has a king bed and the living room has 2 sofas, each folds into a full-size bed. All linens included.

The property has three units: this unit no.3 and also Alaska Nordic Creek Chalet no.1 and no.2. Each has private parking, entry and access to the backyard and trail.

Each unit is private, quiet and a different size so each can accommodate different group sizes.

If lucky, booking all units at the same time would facilitate an incredible home base for a large group or multiple families travelling together.

I am available to resolve issues, provide additional supplies and help with recommendations for your trip.

My wife and I were born and raised in Alaska. We are both explorers and adventurers so have a lot of personal experience in Alaska's outdoors. My wife has worked in the Alaska travel industry for a long time and is an expert with bookings and trip planning.

The property is located in one of Anchorage's first homesteads. As the family grew in generations the original homestead was divided over time into the smaller pieces we currently have. There are multiple descendants of the original homesteaders still living in the neighborhood.

This said, the property is very centrally located in Anchorage:

10 min to the Airport | 3 min to the Seward Hwy | <5 min to multiple restaurants
15 min to Flattop Mountain | 10 min to Downtown | 45 min to Girdwood

There are two private and designated off-street parking spots. There is also a city park that abuts the property where larger vehicles or those with trailers could park temporarily.

We have a private access trail to the Campbell Creek Trail and are directly next to a creek access park. The park has a nice small beach that is safe for kids. The Campbell Creek Trail is paved and connects to over 100 miles of city-wide trails for access to endless local adventures. Taku Lake is 1 mile South on the trail and offers a great morning views, fishing and sunshine. Peanut Farm Bar and Arctic Roadrunner Burger Joint are both .75 mile North on the trail and are both classic Alaskan watering holes with tons of historical pictures and a look at Alaska's short past.

Available by Request:

- Pack'n'Play | Dock'a'Tot | Sound Machine | Umbrella Stroller | Bath Toys | Toys | Books | Car Seat

- IF you would like anything else, please ask, I more than likely can accommodate you.

Perfect place

This place is the middle on Anchorage but feels like the middle of the woods. Creek and bike path just steps from the backdoor. Owner was such a great help in helping me plan my daily hikes/ fishing trips. Place super clean and only 10 minutes from the airport. I would 100% stay again... great for a honeymooning couple or just a couple friends.

Lovely backyard

This was a great location to sit at the creek out back and enjoy your coffee. It also backs right up to a nice bike/jogging path if you like to keep up your morning run while on vacation. The darn rain dampened our plans to use the firepit, but it was a great setup! Dallas (host) was extremely helpful in giving us ideas on places to go and made sure our stay was super smooth.

The perfect home away from home!

We stayed at Creekside Getaway #3 for a week while vacationing in Anchorage. We absolutely loved our clean, spacious home away from home! The place is well cared for a while minimalistic, it has everything you will need. The kitchen with the retro appliances was soo darling and had all we needed to cook breakfasts each day. We also loved the special features such as lighted bathroom mirror and the best hot shower ever!! We loved the creek area behind the house and took advantage of the trail for daily walks. We would definitely stay again!
