Location was very good for getting anywhere we needed to go in Valdez. The amenities were good and we took advantage of the grill and nice kitchen. Plenty of space for the seven of us which included our family of four adults and three children. Would not hesitate to re-book in the future.

The space was perfect for our family of six, which consisted of two grandparents, two parents, and two twenty-somethings. With a sauna, weights, a tanning bed, televisions aplenty, and fast internet, we found it easy to relax and enjoy our family. We had plenty of parking space, as well as a clean garage. The bedrooms and closets were spacious and uncluttered. Baths were modern and well-supplied. We prepared several meals and had everything we needed, The place was very clean and located close enough to businesses, but in a quiet neighborhood. Everything was perfect and we hated to leave!
Area park had several eagles and ducks.
Waterfalls and snow-covered mountains provided unbelievable views.

Convenient but not luxury

You will be staying in a duplex apartment in suburban development surrounded with multiple other duplexes. We expected a single home. There are mountains views but you will be also looking at other duplexes. The place accommodates max 6 people, not 12 as advertised. There is no gym as advertised and the sauna is a wooden box accommodating perhaps 2 people. We enjoyed our stay but based on description and price expected more..

WORK FISHING TRIP

The Condo was absolutely perfect! Very modern in the appeal of it. Next year we will be booking with them, it was so nice to go back to the condo after a long and wet day of fishing, it was warm and very comforting.

Clean and modern!

We all really enjoyed our stay! It is clean, modern, yet cozy! Lots of space, plenty of sitting areas, and blankets. We loved that we could make our own special coffee with the espresso machine. Close to town, you could walk really. We would definitely stay here again.
