Your Alaskan Adventure awaits pretty much says it all. we had such a wonderful time in Ami’s cabin! She has all the amenities you could ever need and then some. It was beautiful up on the mountain. We would love to come back again sometime.

Great location with a view!
This was a cute little pet friendly studio apartment within 15 mins of Anchorage. There was a circle drive with easy access and parking. We didn’t spend much time there because our stay was short and sweet, but we enjoyed the clean accommodations and clear communication with the owner. We will for sure be back next time we need to stay near Anchorage. Thank you Kim for the amazing last minute stay!

Alaska Vacation Retreat
If you are looking for a nice getaway place to stay in close proximity to Anchorage and surrounding areas this is a wonderful place to stay, The updated kitchen and bathroom were a major plus. Having a full kitchen gave us flexibility to prepare special meals while giving us the flexibility to dine out if desired. The owner of the property was kind, helpful and quick to reply to any questions we had. The sunset views from the large windows were absolutely stunning. This is a gem of a vacation getaway.

Midwestern Anchorage Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was only 20 minutes from downtown Anchorage which was very convenient and it was driveable to several surrounding activities in Palmer, Talkeetna, and Glacier View. Unit was well stocked with basics including coffee, spices, cooking oil, condiments, sandwich bags, etc. The unit was clean and comfortable. It was nice to be able to do laundry. Appreciated the outdoor space watching the sunset (sort of - it was Alaska in July). Location was excellent in a nice quiet area but close to gas, groceries and restaurants.

This place was awesome. A real nice retreat to get away and unwind and away from the busy city. It was great going out and seeing the sights and return to a comfy cozy room, with the real flavor of Alaska. Thank-you

This was the perfect place to stay to make a lifetime of memories! Our host was great, very friendly and available although we did not need anything. She had thought of it all! We appreciated the little things like bear spray! The laundry was a huge benefit! The location couldn’t be better for day trips north to Talkeetna or south to Seward. Although not in a “tourist” area, the proximity to the hyway and gas, groceries and great restaurants was a huge plus! Thank you!

After 2 weeks of sleeping in dry cabins, rustic log cabins, campers and places off the beaten path, Amy’s apartment was perfect. Decorated perfectly with everything you could possibly need. A great end to our 2 week Alaska adventure. Don’t hesitate to book this. Thanks for hosting us!

The property was as described. The host was very prompt and friendly in answering any questions we had. There was a great view from the front windows. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and basics like tea and coffee were there for use. Host even offered us her covered parking when she was out of town. We loved it!

We had a wonderful stay at Amy's property. It was ideally located to explore both Anchorage and the surrounding area. Eagle River is a lovely little community and the view was spectacular. The unit was well-appointed with everything we needed for our 16-day stay.

Awesome place
This place is awesome and the owner is even more awesome. I loved this place outside of Anchorage so much I almost didn't leave a review for fear it will always be booked to be totally honest 😂. But then I wouldn't have left a review for the awesome owner of this place. My son jumped on the trampoline and played with the dog the whole time and it was great. Will be booking in the future!

Eagle River hideout
We had a wonderful stay here! Amy was very welcoming, and had drinks with us on her expansive deck the evening that we checked in. She has a very sweet & gentle husky named Kilo who was also very welcoming! The accommodations were just one large room, with adjacent bathroom and laundry room, but it had everything we needed! We watched movies on Netflix in the evenings; the bed was very comfortable. The location is beautiful, with woods all around and mountains in the distance. We stayed in midsummer, but no problem dealing with the light at midnight because the blackout blinds were very effective. Wifi worked well. Would definitely recommend!
