We loved this home base for our 3 day trip to the Anchorage area. It was super clean and very comfortable and it had fantastic views over Anchorage. It was also very quiet and private. Would definitely stay here again.
Our stay at The Mountain Top Escape w/Scenic Views & Trails was fantastic. We have nothing but positives to say. Check in was easy, communication with our hosts were exceptional, the property was beautiful, everything and more was supplied. We rented a small tesla and had no issues going up the mountain, which was fantastic. The entire trip was 100% successful. You never know what to expect until you are there and we were very happy and impressed. We would definitely stay there again. Totally deserves a 5 star review.
Great place! Loved our stay here. Had a moose just outside our door the morning we were leaving. Family living in main house was extremely friendly and accommodating, even gave us some baseballs after my son and I lost ours. Would definitely stay here again.
This was a wonderful spot to stay. If you're looking for quiet comforts of home just a short drive from Anchorage then this is a great place. The view was fantastic!
We enjoyed the property. There was plenty of space for 6 and everything we needed was already here. Very clean. Great location for wheeler trails.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Check in process was tedious. Rental was not a house as listed but an apartment above a garage which was quite noisy when opened/closed several times by homeowner. Parking was inconveniently located up a steep hill, not next to the unit. The site did not feel welcoming as there were several rules posted about the unit including a threat to contact police and be subject to a fine if guests were deemed to be too noisy. Communication with the host regarding issues during the stay seemed to be poorly received. View was very nice and we did see some wildlife.
Amazing view with large windows to enjoy it. Full size shampoo, conditioner, body wash provided along with dish soap, laundry detergent, and spices. Very neat and clean. Private and quiet. We did not get the door code before we arrived which was a bit frustrating but the property manager was quick to respond and resolve this issue. I should have thoroughly read the emails to make sure we had the code prior to arriving. Overall we loved this place.
Fantastic view of Anchorage and Denali. Well furnished, comfortable beds, dishwasher & laundry. Well off the beaten path. Don't try wethout satnav.
