About this house rental
This modern house is set in a grove of large hemlock trees in the quiet Virgin Creek neighborhood of Girdwood. The property includes an exterior wood fired sauna and hot tub set under the lush hemlock canopy. Large ceiling to floor windows open the house interior to the surrounding forest (squirrel ballet at unscheduled times).
The second floor balcony makes for a pleasant perch to observe the landscape or wildlife including the occasional bear. The polished concrete radiant-heat floor and gas fireplace ensure warm days and cozy nights.
Three bedrooms, a pullout bed, a small loft and plenty of couches provide comfortable sleeping for 8 friends and endless floor space and couches for your entourage or security detail. The “kids” bedroom has two sets of bunk beds. A large gas range and espresso machine anchor the fully equipped modern kitchen. A granite breakfast bar and large dining table adjoin the living room.
Furniture includes multiple leather sofas and chaise lounges set next to the huge fully opening windows. Perfect for the serious reader. A central stereo system accesses your personal music via the wireless Ipod docker or taps into the quirky funk of the reformed local pirate radio station.
Sound flows through the house and even feeds the exterior sauna! You have not lived until you've danced in the steamy fog of the sauna entry. A heated jacuzzi is in the third floor bath. The house first floor includes a major gear and equipment room and a European-style drying closet that takes care of any equipment drying needs. The recreation room/garage includes a Foosball table and a ski waxing bench.
Two large screen cable TVs and high speed internet. A fax and printer are also available. Wireless internet is also provided for your personal laptop. Cellular phone service for most carriers can be received at the house.
An endless selection of adventure and sporting activities are located in or near Girdwood including: fishing, rafting, hiking, climbing, skiing, gold panning, berry picking, snow machining, heli-skiing, parasailing, and more! Located near the trailhead to Virgin Falls or the Wagon Wheel Trail to Glacier Creek.
This is among the most comfortable rental houses in Girdwood. Perfect for families, small skiing groups, film crews, business executives, or folk musicians. Talk to us for the BETA on the local inside track. Price: (see details), 4 night minimum. For special arrangements contact us directly!

Our group of longtime friends loved the house, location, and especially the sauna. Highly recommend, and would consider for future trips to the area!

Area is awesome and checking in was a breeze. However that’s where it all goes wrong. Futons smell like body odor for starters. Pillows are flat and also have a sour odor. Beds were so bad we had to leave and rent a hotel due to back issues. When exploring Alaska the last thing you want is back problems and poor rest. When asked to refund last half of stay the host went silent and wouldn’t cancel our stay. Hopefully they use the money to fix the broken windows or put a television on the main hang out floor.

This was a great spot for our family, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to amenities. Something for everybody, (games/sauna/etc) and designed for the local activities. Great communication, would stay again!

House had hot water issues, David arranged for us to move to another location which was spectacular. Skiing was fantastic with 3” of fluff on the second day.
One of the best ski vacations I have taken.

Family and I stayed at this place for a long weekend and we will definitely be back. Wonderful home with lots of fun details and lots of things to do and enjoy. We really enjoyed the tub and sauna. The teens enjoyed the Rec room. The music around the entire house was awesome. Thank you for a home away from home.

We had such an amazing time staying here during our winter vacation. So close to the resort but all the comforts of home. The kids enjoyed it as much as the adults. Thank you!

The house has amazing windows and views, with cozy bed linens and radiant floor heating. The house was well-appointed with items to meet basic needs for the stay. The area offers fun restaurants and nearby attractions. The owner was very easy to communicate with, and we had a fantastic stay.

"If you enjoy vacationing in small spaces with thin walls, uncomfortable furniture, and broken amenities throughout the property, then this place is for you.
Slept 9 extremely uncomfortably with zero privacy or ample living space.
Washer sounds like a helicopter is landing on the roof. Dryer squeals during operation.
Espresso machine doesn't work.
Living room seating is an uncomfortable sectional broken into pieces and scattered around the living room.
Balcony has no furniture.
Ice machine did not work.
Bed in the loft room was missing wooden slats causing it to fold and lift up if weight was unevenly applied.
Couldn't use the Hot tub.
Couldn't use the Sauna. It was completely full of junk.
Billiards triangle is too small to rack the balls.
Drying closet didn't work.
Multiple windows were broken and could not open.
The lone redeeming quality is the waterfall within short walking distance.
A+ by God on the waterfall.
F- by the owners for attention to detail and care for property."

Girdwood home was amazing!
We just loved staying at this home with our six children. Ample room for everyone. I highly recommend the Virgin Creek Trail just a block away. I was impressed that there were no insects inside the home, despite it being in the forest. Owners were great with communication. Highlights for the children were the pool table and all the bunk beds to choose from! We would definitely stay there again, should we make our way back to Girdwood in the future.

The owner and property managers were fantastic to work with. The weather was amazing and neighbors were very friendly. The house has such a neat layout and was incredibly clean! The children are already asking when we can go back! We truly enjoyed each day to the fullest!

Fun place to stay
We liked the location - very close to Alyeska for great skiing, the pool table was a plus, the basement had a great setup for storing our ski stuff and for getting ready for the day. It was very comfortable to just hang out at the house and a pretty location. Owner was great to respond. It was a fun place to stay.

This property was a great gathering space for a family ski-cation. the common area provided warmth and openness for pre and post ski meals, games, and conversation. The downstairs game room made the rainy days all the more entertaining, and the jaccuzi tub was a definite plus! All in all an excellent stay!
