Homely, warm and cosy. A great place to return to after a day exploring Alaska. The accommodation had everything we could need, we cooked great meals, enjoyed with a nice glass of wine with snowy views and beautiful sunsets

My family and I were very excited to be hosted by Donna, unfortunately plans were cancelled because of a severe storm. Our plans were not can celled until the Day of our check in with Donna-Donna was very courteous and kind in her communications and she went the extra mile and had the house stocked with food for my family, for our arrival! Although I did not get to experience her vrbo, I am sure it would have been amazing based off of the true compassion and care Donna gave through our communications! I rate Donna a 5 star and I am sure her place is just as Great! Thank you Donna!

Me and my adult daughter stayed here and absolutely loved it! It is so warm and cozy. It is decorated so nicely and anything we could have needed was already there. Donna was great to communicate with. We look forward to going back and staying again. We'll definitely be back!

The 2 bedroom home was so perfect I booked it again for my return visit to Anchorage. Kitchen and bathrooms are very well stocked. The decor is very cute and Alaskan. The beds and bedding are super comfy. The fireplace was divine. Everything was perfect and I will definitely stay here again.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay for our Honeymoon .. Can’t wait to go back!

This house was delightful, very well stocked and comforts unending. The location was a short distance to restaurants, shopping, and all sorts of activities. This place was our very own oasis.

This apartment, which feels more like a cabin, is absolutely wonderful. If it is available, stop looking and book it! Located just outside of Anchorage in the hills, it has everything you need. Clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and fully equipped. There are even a few furry and feathered friends (outside) to provide entertainment if you grow weary of trying to spot a moose. A nature trail is just around the corner, but weather prevented us from exploring it. Loved our stay here!

This property was perfect for our family and made our vacation that much better! It’s located in a nice, beautiful, quiet area. It was clean and had so many of the kitchen and bathroom items that we needed. I would highly recommend this property. Thank you!

Donna was absolutely wonderful. Even when I originally booked this and decided to change the dates Donna was so helpful and sweet. She really went the extra mile! This house was not only clean and comfy but in a very nice location.

Donna and Ed were the perfect hosts of this lovely guesthouse; so helpful but not intrusive. We felt very much at home and had everything we needed. Location is great as you can be almost anywhere in fifteen minutes. Great decor and wonderful view. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful time in Anchorage and the Iditarod 2022. We plan on coming back in the fall of 2023.

We had a wonderful time. The house was clean, warm and had AMAZING views of the Cook Inlet, making for very relaxing evenings watching the sunset over the Alaska Range. I would highly recommend this VRBO and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Super nice property & host

Great location and access to North Bicentennial park for a weekend of cross country skiing. Very comfy and relaxing guest cottage.

Hillside East is a lovely place to stay - the unit is gorgeous, with lovely views of the city, and walkable access to many trails. You get the best of both words - convenience to the city, while also being out in nature. Kitchen is well appointed (I like to cook for myself, so this was great for us, and is definitely not the case at all VRBOs), and Donna was very responsive to any questions we had. All told, I look forward to coming back!

We had a short visit to Anchorage for a family obligation and needed a place that could comfortably host our family of five. We found Donna’s listing and I immediately contacted Donna to see if they were available as the website was a little vague. She responded immediately and preaccepted our request. I finished the booking in minutes and that took care of a major concern for our trip. I have had the booking process go badly and leave me in a bad position, I was thrilled to have it nailed down in minutes. When we arrived We were thrilled at the cleanliness, decoration and amenities that the guest house provides. It’s very nicely decorated and arranged, with five people living in a smaller space than we’re used to, furnishing and layout are really important. The kitchen had great appliances, we made breakfast every morning and greatly appreciated the fresh eggs and butter that were in the fridge. Hillside is a beautiful area and the views of Anchorage are awesome. We even had a day clear enough to see Denali on the horizon. The washer and dryer worked well and we were able to run a couple of loads through to keep down on work when we got home. The bathroom was clean and stocked with body wash and shampoo. Location is always a matter of person taste, but I really enjoyed the drive up the mountain. We we’re heading to Eagle River everyday and it only took 25 minutes. Long story short, this is the first place I check for my next visit to Anchorage and I really hope that it’s not already booked up.

Donna and her family were so welcoming and helpful right off the bat. the house was absolutely perfect, it had everything we could have needed and more. it was very cozy and homey and the location was perfect. we definitely enjoyed our stay!

We were extremely surprised and grateful for ALL of the thought put into the home. We flew into Fairbanks from L.A. and ended to visit anchorage for a day only - but because there were no overpriced hotels left we found Donna's listing and decided to stay in anchorage while my daughter's dorm opened up. We didn't think it was going to be the value it was! She proved you don't need to over charge to provide great hospitality! 5 star hotel it's not.... It's a 10 star homey feeling upstairs unit! Kind of a take something bring something honor system! We saw items that either Donna left for her guests' use or what other guests have left behind to use (flour,spices, shampoo, conditioner, launder, etc) and we also left a lil behind that we couldn't take back on a 6 hour drive. Just realize it's up on a nice secluded quiet hillside area - about a good 15 minute drive from downtown Anchorage. If you went noise def not the place. But is you value some peace and family time where you can cook your own meals or do a lil therapeutic baking... This is your haven!

Such a wonderful, quiet place for an easy and carefree trip! Props to the hosts for great communication and help with accommodations for an early morning arrival too!

We had a blast on our trip and a big part of that was this property. Very clean and organized; and in a great location! Donna was a great host!

We couldn’t have found a better home to stay in while we discovered Alaska. It was the perfect home base for our excursions north and south of Anchorage. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We really appreciated to the quiet neighborhood and the black out curtains and soft beds made sleeping a dream after our long days of exploring. We would come back in a heartbeat!!

We absolutely loved Donna’s rental! Everything was pristine, and we enjoyed admiring all of the beautiful art/decor in every room. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with everything you could ever need - just like being at home. We even had a moose sighting in the back yard! Do not hesitate to book this property - a total gem!

House was beautiful. Great location. Owner was so helpful and accommodating. I would recommend to anyone coming to area

We had a wonderful winter vacation in Anchorage. This property is located perfectly on the side foothill of the mountains and is easy to drive in and out of during the deepest part of winter. The layout was perfect for my family (4 adults and 2 pre teens). The owners live adjacent to the rental. The interior is wonderfully decorated and the amenities were the same as being at home (including washer and dryer). I would highly recommend this property for any season.
