About this property
Midnight Sun Retreat - Close to Trails, Shopping
This home is a sunlit retreat with beautiful furnishings and decor. Enjoy the attention to detail and comfort in this modern duplex-style home, professionally cleaned before your arrival!
Ideally located in a quiet neighborhood in Southeast Anchorage, it is a 3-minute drive from trails, grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants. It's also close to Hilltop Ski Area and the Alaska Zoo.
The kitchen is stocked with everything you'll need to cook/bake. Enjoy coffee or meals in the quiet, fully-fenced backyard. Perfect for couples, families, or groups.
* Thoughtfully Prepared for Your Arrival*
* Professionally Cleaned Between Guests*
When entering the home (lower level), you will find a cozy living space with large windows that let in natural light, a well-appointed kitchen, a charming dining area with sliding doors leading to the backyard, and a convenient half-bathroom with a full-sized washer and dryer.
The fully equipped, upgraded kitchen is perfect for groups, couples, families, and fishing enthusiasts. It comes stocked with bakeware, cookware, and an array of dishes to ensure you have everything you need to prepare your meals should you choose to do so!
The cozy living area has comfortable furniture and light from the two picture windows and sliding doors, all offering views of the peaceful, fully-fenced back yard. We also provide an outdoor table and chairs so you can enjoy your favorite beverage or meal during the warmer months.
Stay connected with high-speed wifi and two smart TVs with streaming and local stations via a digital antenna. Whether you're lounging in the living room or relaxing in the primary bedroom, you can easily log in to your favorite streaming channel and enjoy your favorite shows.
All three bedrooms are upstairs, and the full bathroom is stocked with fluffy towels and shower necessities. The primary bedroom has a convenient door leading directly to the bathroom. You'll find blackout blinds in each bedroom, perfect for those long Alaskan summer days!
Families are welcomed with toddler dishes, a pack-n-play crib, and a high chair.
A PERFECT LOCATION
With keyless entry, your arrival is a breeze, day or night. It's nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac near a lower hillside, this home has a fully fenced back yard featuring a small deck, table and chairs, spruce and birch trees, and a few raspberry bushes. It is a zero-lot-line home, styled as a duplex, and the neighbors, who have called this place home for 20+ years, are extremely quiet. Although the walls are mostly soundproof, we ask that if you and your guests are not the quiet and respectable types, reconsider this home or agree to be respectful and considerate during your stay.
**Explore Nearby Trails**
This home is ideally situated in Anchorage. You can access local trailheads within minutes, such as Abbott Loop Community Park Trailhead and the beautiful 4000-acre preserved area. These well-maintained trails offer delightful walking, biking, or cross-country skiing opportunities, and you might even catch a glimpse of local wildlife. It's a slice of wilderness that feels worlds away from Anchorage.
**Convenience!**
This home sits just 2-3 minutes from local shopping hubs, including Fred Meyer, the Dimond Mall, Carrs/Safeway, along with a variety of restaurants, the Alaska Zoo, the Anchorage Golf Course, Hilltop Ski Area, and horseback riding. The drive to the airport and downtown is a short 10-minute drive. Whether you seek a tranquil retreat or a launching pad for adventure, this home is perfectly situated to meet your needs.
DEDICATION TO CLEANLINESS
This home undergoes professional cleaning during each guest's stay to ensure a pristine and welcoming environment.
We would love to host your stay and provide a comfortable and memorable Anchorage experience!
Sincerely, Lynette
You will have the entire house to yourselves! You may arrive anytime with a keyless entry lock.
I am always just a call or message away to answer any questions! If necessary, I can also stop by since we live in Anchorage.

About the host
Hosted by Lynette

**Welcome!**
This home was my very first home purchase. The location, the neighborhood, and the space all resonated with me, and it still carries sentimental value to this day 😊.
Inspired by my appreciation for what makes a vacation rental comfortable and exceptional, I decided to transform this property into a welcoming space for guests. Together with my husband, we've updated the space, furnished it, and stocked it to make the place feel like home.
Hand-picking each piece of furniture and decor has been a joy as I strive to create a space filled with thoughtful details that will make your stay both comfortable and memorable.
In addition to this home, we have two other vacation rentals in Anchorage and two condos in beautiful southern Utah. These properties have been equally infused with those special touches. It's this passion for hospitality that drove us to extend the same level of care to our visitors in Anchorage.
We love sharing this home with those exploring Alaska and providing an extraordinary stay that will leave you with cherished memories. We hope to host your stay when visiting Anchorage!
