We needed a place to stay for just one night before continuing our trip to Soldotna. Very cute clean little place. It is basically like efficiency apartment. Perfect for a quick overnight and back. The back patio is so nice and private.
Cute and cozy little cottage. It definitely cool down at night and the purple fuzzy fluffy blanket was amazing. I got the best sleep. Perfect for my first night in Anchorage close to the airport Walmart restaurants grocery store. Would definitely stay there again. The house is very nice and responsive

Nice accommodations.
Clean and comfortable. Close to the airport. Kind of hard to find and not in the best neighborhood. Not scary just not quite what we are used to.
I stayed at the cottage for four days by myself. It was just right for a person traveling alone. It’s really close to the airport, downtown Anchorage and Kincaid Park where I was attending an event. I felt safe and enjoyed the quiet location.The host was terrific, and easy to contact. I’d definitely stay here again.
This was the best choice we made as a place to call home for 3 days while in Anchorage. This modest home away from home is tucked back in a wooded area by a creek, but so close to everything you would want in a city. The hostess lives on the property, but kept to herself, but was there if we needed something. It was just the right size for our needs, super comfortable & clean. I can’t recommend this place enough. We will be staying here on our next trip to Anchorge
Conveniently located close to airport but that means listening to planes most of the night. Full size bed not great for two. Clean and eclectic place, quiet except airport noise.
Super cute, had everything I needed. Convenient to downtown, but had the quiet atmosphere I was looking for.
Absolutely great!

Very basic. Unattractive but clean. Only furniture double bed, bistro table and small chairs. No where comfortable to sit to read or watch tv. The partial paper towel roll and partial toilet paper roll made it feel unwelcoming. House lies under small plane flight path so constant noise of planes overhead.

The peaceful
Cottage was just what we needed for our weekend. It was clean, and has all
The items needed for a home away from home. The host was very helpful
And kind. Would definitely stay again!
What a great decision it was to choose this place for staying at. The hospitality was five star and first class all the way. The accommodations were in a great, quiet area, comfortable and very clean. Highly recommended and hope to stay there again in the future. Thank you VERY much for the wonderful experience.
Needed a bed until flight the next morning. Studio apartment attached to Madison's home in a quiet neighborhood. Madison was beyond helpful in arranging quick transport to the airport the next morning.

This suited our needs just fine. However, the curtain rod right above the bed fell off in the middle of the night other than that everything else was just lovely.

A quiet peaceful place to stay with a clean room, bath, and a comfortable bed. I had some problems getting in with the keypad system, as I initially was sent the wrong code. Attendant was there to help so there was no problem.

Very cute and comfortable – the bed in particular was wonderful. Lots of nice touches, including a full kitchen and a great shower. A very peaceful spot with a lovely yard, and access to the trail system. Private entrance and parking.
I choose to walk from the airport - it is 2 miles, but it’s all paved trail or sidewalk, so it’s a lovely walk. My favorite coffee shop, The Writer’s Block, is just around the corner.
It was such a nice place to be, I looked forward to getting back every day.
No comfortable chairs for watching tv. Bed was too small for two people, a queen would be minimum. Remodel the bathtub/shower... it’s hard to get the temp right on the water. Sometimes hot water comes out when you turn on the cold, ???? Other than these things, it was certainly peaceful.

About the host
Hosted by Madison N.
Hi, I'm Maddy! I'm a lifelong Alaskan- born and raised in Anchorage. There really is something so special about this place. We have all the convenience of a modern city, and the perk of driving 20 minutes to a wilderness adventure! This unit is part of a triplex. My family and I live on-sight, keeping it cozy and safe. I can't wait for you to experience the magic of Alaska!
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood has such a central, convenient location. It's also filled with well-established home-owners with a family-friendly feel. You can walk a few minutes from the property and enjoy feeding ducks in a pond or walking the Red Bridge along Fish Creek which flows right behind the property.
What makes this property unique
This fun & funky triplex has been lovingly nicknames "The Fairytale House" by the neighborhood. It has a beautiful yard and bold coloring. Upon your arrival, I think you'll find you understand exactly why it has been given that title.
