Clean rooms. (The drain in the bathroom sink needs to be cleaned) Quiet. Great coffee shop nearby. Well stocked kitchen. Washer/dryer was convenient. The bathroom door was very hard to close and stairs were cute but noisy to walk on.

Don’t judge a book by the cover

The outside of the house and the property did not do the inside justice! The inside of this place was adorable and the beds very comfortable. The location was right in the middle of all our events. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

We liked our stay, but had some issues.

Cons: dirty pots and pans, no screens on the windows (letting in fresh air meant letting in bugs), dirty heater filter that caused beeping all night until I googled and solved the issue the next morning, tapping coming from the bathroom that goes all night (unless you leave the bathroom vent on), hot water runs out quickly, washer/dryer took an absurd amount of time to dry clothes (hours), can opener didn’t work, tv remotes (3 of them) don’t see to work properly. Pros: comfy beds, plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 small kids, plenty of towels/sheets/pillows, close to hiking, close to Girdwood and Aleyeska.

Great little cabin

First and foremost, Sapphire went above and beyond to hand deliver items I had left behind at the cabin. While I did not expect to get those items back, I was so pleasantly surprised to receive them. It is a true RARITY when someone goes so above and beyond to make someone feel so prioritized. As for the cabin, it was in an exceptional location and in excellent condition. The only thing I would have liked was to have had coffee in the unit. It's not usual to have a coffee maker but have no coffee provided. I even brought my own creamer! But we ended up getting coffee down the street-no big deal. We had such a wonderful experience at this place and we will most definitely be back. And THANK YOU so very much for being pet friendly!! :) Loved the little cabin by the resort! <3

Sooooo cute! If I could live in this cottage forever, I would! It was cozy, clean, beds were comfy and an overall great vibe. Plus the bathroom was fairly large. The neighborhood was very quite and we heard no outside noise. I’d stay here again!
Dinnerware was included! We were able to bring food and make ourselves breakfast.
Spacious living area/ kitchen

Loved the Place

Although small, this place had everything we needed for our stay. Plenty of dishes, pots & pans, towels. It is a great location, outside of the city but still centrally located to many places to see. Nice hiking within walking distance.

Summer at a Ski Resort

We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed it. It's out of the city, but reasonably close to many of the things we wanted to see. There were trails within walking distance and a small grocery store nearby. The place had all of the amenities we needed. The spiral staircase was a special touch, as we have one in our home as well.
