Home is well-equipped and comfortable. In good location close to lots of services and restaurants etc. Do need to be ok with stairs as home is on 3 levels.
Host was very attentive and helpful answering any questions we had. Enjoyed our visit and would return

The home was very roomy, quiet and everything we needed. Just as pictured. Hosts were great to ask questions. All the supplies in kitchen were there for cooking. I were not home for dinner but it would of been great. My grandkids love playing hide and seek. there are many rooms. We hope to stay again.
I stayed in Abby’s Cottage with my husband and 6 children! Not only was the cottage well stocked with necessities, but also clean and quite roomy! The host had great communication and was quick to respond to any messages/questions! They were gracious and put a tree with ornaments at the house for our kiddos to keep the Christmas spirit alive while away from home! The views around the cottage were gorgeous! The cottage is right outside of Wasilla, which made town runs extremely easy and quick! Very country feel! We are extremely pleased with this stay and plan to stay again!
Our stay at Abby's Cottage was just perfect for our needs. It was close to commercial/professional offices/stores, yet located in a very rural setting. The home was very clean and well maintained. Tim and Felicia were very resposive to our needs and were excellent hosts. We would stay at this home again in the future.
