Blocks from Downtown at Westchester Lagoon

We are ready to host you today! We've instituted additional cleaning procedures to ensure a clean and welcoming apartment for your visit. We've cleaned hard surfaces with anti-bacterial sprays. Soft surfaces, furniture & throw pillows are treated with anti-bacterial fabric sprays.

Located next to popular Westchester Lagoon and The Coastal Trail, this top floor apartment is also minutes from downtown by car, bike, or your feet! If you have a vehicle, you'll have a parking spot reserved just for you. The unit has a private entrance accessed by two flights of exterior stairs.

We've stocked our Keurig machine and filled the refrigerator with complimentary bottled water.

This is the first of two rentals that we host in our building. The second one "New remodeled unit next to Downtown at Westchester" opened in December 2019. It was designed and furnished with guests in our minds.

As a born and raised Alaskan, nothing beats the beauty and winter recreation opportunities of Alaska!

You'll have the entire 900 Sq Ft apartment to yourself.

We enjoyed our stayed here! The place is clean and comfortable with cozy beds and a nice jetted tub with a spectacular showerhead! I appreciated the washer and dryer and was pleasantly surprised that the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook with and the host provided plenty of coffee, water, and welcome snacks. The apartment is on the top floor so there are a few flights of stairs to climb but it worked fine for us. There is a lake with a walking/biking path with two parks for kids nearby. This was our second time staying here and we would love to stay again in the future.

Great cosy apartment. Lots of amenities supplied including coffee, oats, oil, condiments etc. Lots of cooking utensils and ability to cook in house if needed. Washing machine/dryer with washing powder supplied. About a 30 minute walk into the heart of town. Dan and Christine live on site and were very helpful with any query. Lovely walks nearby to see wildlife. Highly recommend to stay here.

Convenient to all locations. Hosts were quick to respond. Unit was clean and tidy. Had an odor possibly from sink and tub drains but not overpowering. Had all the conveniences and even more than what we anticipated. Good amount of snacks, bathroom items, kitchen, and laundry items so we didn’t have to purchase extras. This was a real blessing. I would definitely recommend to others to stay here if you are staying in or near Anchorage.

Lovely stay at a convenient location

Had a lovely time staying at Dan and family's property very nearby downtown, and central to much of Anchorage. Plenty of space, and the apartment was well-stocked with toiletries, towels, tea, and coffee. Parking was easy and check-in/check-out was seamless.Only note is we had to be cautious with our shower times, as we did run out of hot water one or two of the evenings after showering back-to-back; I believe the unit shares hot water with the rest of the building.Overally, wonderful unit, location, and stay, and Dan was very communicative.

Cozy apartment

The hosts have this two bedroom set up very welcomingly. The kitchen is beautiful and has all the appliances you could need. The hosts also generously stocked it with some coffee pods and a few snacks. I only used the main bedroom, but the bed was comfy, and the room had a convenient connection to the bathroom. There's also a washer and dryer in the unit, which was perfect so I could pack up only clean clothes. Overall, it was a relaxing and cozy space.
