The bathrooms were very nice. The beds could have been more comfortable. The two queen beds in one room were strange and would be better to have a separate sleeping area downstairs. The grill and kitchen were also very nice as well as the location.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location was decent for the plans we had, but that was it. The property itself is very sub-par (at best) except for the newly renovated downstairs bathroom. The dishes were still in the dishwasher from the previous guests which were full of mold/mildew. The pots & pans were not washed well before being placed in the cabinet that was filled with what looked to be animal droppings. The furniture has been torn up by animals as well as the window sills & carpet throughout the house. The upstairs loft area is what they call a bedroom which is wide open to with 2 queen beds which are wide open to the stairwell. The other upstairs bedroom is locked off with a makeshift door with a padlock & looks like someone else stays there at the same time. The living area windows looked like a toddler had made finger art on them with sticky candy or peanut butter. The property management was contacted as soon as we arrived because there were windows open in the living room & kitchen. We were told "well, if they're not stuck open, just close them. It must have been housekeeping." The heater did not work & took us two days to get it working on our own. I was told that a "local rep" would contact me within the hour. After 2 hours, I replied to the text I was sent from the initial call like I was prompted & was told that "due to it being 'late' (6pm) I would receive a call first thing the following morning." There was no further contact from anyone. I would NOT recommend this place at all.
Filthy windows
Cabinets full of nasty dirt & old food.
Cabinets looked to have animal droppings.

Miss representation

The posting is inaccurate. It states a 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom laudry on site. There was only 1 bedroom with 2 beds in it. The other bedroom was padlocked so we could not enter. There was no laundry. The furnishings and decor are very dated. The beds sagged and were uncomfortable. Definitely would not recommend.

Girdwood three day stay

Nice place on outskirts of town, towel holders in upper bathroom were falling off the wall, bed was comfortable, really nice to have the barbecue on the deck to use, quiet neighborhood, only downside was your close to turnagain arm and the train blowing its whistle woke me up unexpectedly.

Off the beaten path and yet close to so much.

We really laid back at this house it was very comfortable and we actually watched TV for the first time on vacation. Great location, very clean and we had everything we needed. Wish I would have had time to enjoy the tub.

Good not great

Low quality pillows, only 2 per bed (1 per person if you're sleeping 2 people). No washer or dryer access, super small TV that is not a smart TV. The sink upstairs was clogged the whole time and I couldn't get the manager on the phone or to respond to email. The patio was great we enjoyed it every morning. Tons of parking even though we only had 1 car. I would not re-book this place.

V. well equipped. Household supplies - dish soaps, hand soaps, initial coffee, full BBQ tank, etc. - provided. Girdwood train depot in easy walking distance and because of GVT shuttle routing, shuttle on request, can pick-up at location. Jetted-tub is indoors, not an outdoor hot tub, and was not used during our summer visit. Bed arrangements mean there are no closed-door bedrooms. While much more spacious, bed arrangements are akin to a two double-bed hotel room vs a two-bedroom chalet from a privacy perspective. Property is optimal for a single couple or family of 4-5 with vehicle. V. highly recommend this property. If we return to Girdwood, we would seek to book this property.

Weekend away

Our family of four + our dog enjoyed this property for our weekend getaway. We chose it because it allowed dogs and they even had a basket of toys for him. Place was nice, clean, kitchen well-stocked and we’d stay again.

Wonderful stay in the forest

Lovely chalet. We used to live down the street - love how quiet the neighborhood is, yet still easy access to the mountain. Very clean and kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We will definitely be back!

Nice stay

Great location close to the mountain for skiing and hiking. Spacious kitchen and living area with a gas fireplace that gives plenty of heat if needed. Great deck off the living room, we had breakfast there in the morning. Upstairs sleeping quarters are really a loft with two beds (master bedroom is locked up for owner use I assume). Two Queen beds, was fine for us to stay a couple nights. Good size shower with strong water pressure. House is a bit dated but everything in working order. Strong wifi. Thank you for hosting us.

There was a lot of space in the living area, and big kitchen, always good to have a deck. Girdwood is gorgeous in the fall, so we wanted to take advantage of that and go hiking, also to enjoy the great restaurants nearby.

Roomy home near everything but with privacy

Great weekend stay. Very clean and comfortable. Only one sleeping space but has two queen beds in it if needed for a family. It’s newer to the management company so think it will just get better over time! Biggest thing was the kitchen needing to be more organized and having a few more pans. Could only find one smaller pan. It may have been buried in the cabinets but did not want to have to pull a bunch of stuff out to find it. A few more basics like more pot holders, pans, hand towels would be great. Pantry was great with some of the basics so you don’t have to pack them (salt, pepper, oil, etc). Beds were very comfortable and deck was great with grill and patio furniture. We will definitely rent again. If they threw a hot tub on the deck, we’d necer leave!
