Great house to use as a base for travels!

My family stayed here for three nights at the end of a 12 day trip to Alaska. The house is beautiful with plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed to make our own meals. There was plenty of space for relaxing, and having multiple bathrooms was fantastic for getting ready in the morning! There is a lot to do in the area. Though Alaska is large, there is still plenty to see and do within driving distance of the house! We did some hiking just outside of Anchorage at Eagle River Nature Center and went downtown to do a little shopping and eat dinner. We were supposed to have a bear sightseeing tour out of Anchorage but low clouds and rain prevented our plane from leaving. We made the most of it and were able to plan another day trip instead since we were centrally located! When we left, it was less than a 20 minute drive to the airport.If you have a larger family or kids who just need a little space during a long trip, this is the house for you!
