It’s a nice little suite.

Nice little property to stay at. The only complaint was being able to hear loud foot steps from above in the night. Would also recommend getting curtains for the main door for added privacy as it looks out to the owners hot tub.

Extreme noise from upstairs: could hear and distinguish talking, crying baby, loud footsteps. Not so much a problem for my party but if you are looking for peace and quiet and serenity this is not an appropriate spot for that. Otherwise it’s very clean, comfortable, and safe.

My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. The residence was large and comfortable, and the owner went out of their way to ensure everything was convenient for us. It’s easy to get from there to stores and/or diners, and the owner was kind enough to provide a list of nearby sightseeing spots, diners, etc. This place also has a wide, exceptional view. I would greatly recommend.

Beautiful welcome to Wasilla!

What an incredible host Deb is! An overnight arrival and she communicated with me beforehand so I understood how to arrive as easily as possible and it was. The welcoming treats upon arrival and personalized door greeting made us feel very welcomed. We drove to Denali first thing in the morning and the snacks were right on the spot. We knew we made the right decision in staying in Wasilla. The home was very beautiful and the views of mountains were so peaceful. While I didn’t get to meet Deb due to our busy schedule, she checked in on us to make sure we were good and it was appreciated. No stove, but a grill and microwave/small fridge. Recommend for anyone traveling to Wasilla or need an in between from Anchorage (50 mins) and Denali (just over 3 hours). Thank you for opening your home and look forward to returning.

What a delightful gem. Makes me want to look for an excuse to stay again. Thoughtful, kind, accommodating make up the start of the list of qualities. No way came up short in any respect, but added extra goodies that enhance the stay. As Bob Barker said, “Come on down!”

Great communication, very friendly host and very clean property! We stayed here for our first two nights in Alaska. Travel is somewhat stressful for me, so when the communication, finding the location and arriving to a welcoming and clean place went seamlessly, I was beyond appreciative! I definitely recommend!
