In town for conference

I had a comfortable, relaxed stay while in town for a conference. Nice, quiet neighborhood and I enjoyed my walk to and from the conference center each day. I cooked for most of my meals and the kitchen had everything I needed. Would definitely stay here again if I get another chance to come to Anchorage.

Spot on location and amenities

We were very pleased with the neighborhood (felt safe) and its easy access to downtown and the Chester Creek Trail. Everything that we saw online was what we experienced-there were no surprises. Stephanie was a great communicator and provided guidance. As a runner/walker, I really enjoyed the trail system.

Great Home, Great Location

My wife and I stayed in The Kobuk Aug. 17 - 20, 2024. The home is well appointed with all the amenities needed. The cleanliness was outstanding. The location is in a quiet neighborhood that is easily accessible from anywhere in the city. The host, Stephanie, was very helpful and was accessible via text. Stephanie gave us several great recommendations of things to do and places to eat. We appreciated the local maps and brochures in the home as these also helped us plan our little excursions within Anchorage.

Super clean and comfortable

We found this to be an enjoyable, cozy, and very clean place to stay. The kitchen is completely stocked with dishes, pots/pans, utensils, silverware, toaster, coffee maker, etc. This unit is located close to downtown, within walking distance to a small grocery store, and close to a walking path/park. Stephanie, our host, was responsive to any questions we might have. We highly recommend this place for your next stay in Anchorage.

Great location close to downtown

Very nice, clean rental. There is an additional unit downstairs but was very quiet. Liked that we had off street parking and access to a washer and dryer. Is in a little older part of Anchorage but seemed safe, we didn’t have any problems. Would consider renting again.

Amazing Place

I cannot say enough about this place. It’s 5-10 minute from literally everything in town. Stephanie was super responsive and had a lot of great tips for food and site seeing. It is so quaint and darling on the outside right in a grove of pines. It feels like your on the woods. Then the inside has been refurbished with cute subway tile white cupboards with darling pulls. It’s all stocked and ready to meet your needs. It was super comfy and cozy and a great place to come home to from our Alaskan adventures. Highlights for me: 1. Lots of windows with beautiful Alaskan View. 2. Stephanie is sweet and friendly 3. A beautiful dining nook with two big windows 4. Thoughtful decor a mix of modern with beautiful antiques and bright colors with some fun Alaskan hunting and fishing pieces. One darling piece was a really unique table runner made out of stickers 5. Lots of storage for our stuff. Several closets in the bedroom plus a hall closet lots of extra cupboard space in the bathroom and kitchen. Even cute cloth bins in the dining area for extra stuff if needed 6. Great Wi-Fi. Unfortunately we had to do a training while we were there on zoom. It was great Wi-Fi 7. Quiet safe neighborhood

Quaint Updated Home near Downtown

My wife and I stayed for a week in this property. It was clean, updated and had all the things one needs for our week long stay. Stephanie was great to work with regarding information and check in/out (door codes, so no in person interaction). She checked with us mid-week to see if we needed anything else (we didn't, but appreciated the communication). The property is well maintained and close to downtown (if that's your thing - we stayed there because it was a couple blocks from our grandbaby who we were visiting for his first birthday). Plenty of closet and drawer space in the bedroom and a convenient on-property laundry facility make this a go to property that we will likely try to return to for family visits to Anchorage!

Cute space, great location

Clean and well appointed apartment conveniently located to downtown Anchorage. Easy walk to the grocery store for supplies. Walked to downtown for bike rentals on the Coastal Trail, dinners out, and to catch a tour bus to see the glaciers. We were in town for a wedding and most of our group was in the same area of town, which was great. We'll use this place again when we return to see our son next time.
