We stayed for one night for my mom’s birthday and really enjoyed our time. The location was fantastic, the space was very clean, and it had great amenities for a comfortable stay. The only thing we wish was different is a slightly later checkout (11 AM would have been perfect), but we understand the cleaning needs between guests. Overall, a great stay and we would definitely come back!
Awesome chalet with plenty of space with amazing bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. You can’t beat the proximity to mountain and everything else Girdwood has to offer!!
Cute cabin with nice sized bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen, and incredible location, close to Alyeska ski lift. Wonderful to be able to bring our pups with us. Fireplace was very nice to keep warm and cozy, but the central heating was also super quick to heat the cabin. Fun games and puzzles and a nice dining table to set them up on. Comfy living room furniture. Very quiet at night.
This cabin is in a great location, good size, and was an added bonus that we could bring our dogs. The check in process was seamless and all amenities were very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Quiet and near town
We enjoyed our stay. The home was as described. It's not a new place but the beds were comfy and had clean linens, the kitchen was full of cookware and coffee.
Nice place. Better for three couples rather than individuals since the beds are all double occupancy. Very comfortable and relaxing.

Girdwood Love❤️
Very cute place! I was a bit disappointed that the hot tub is backed up to a parking lot,maybe throw up a privacy fence!Other than that it was great! Having the washer and dryer is a huge bonus! This place was my key to Girdwood which I fell completely in love with! I will be back!!!

Great for family ski stay
The house is great for families that need some space and want to have meals there and down time/naps. I did let them know they need to add some more forks/spoons and also some basic water/beer/wine glasses. Only found coffee mugs. Plenty of towels for showering and hot tub. Hot tub was nice and private, but be prepared to shovel yourself if it dumps snow. Beds were fine and plenty of seating for meals but living room furniture could use an update. House itself is picturesque with lots of chalet style windows to enjoy the snow piled up outside. Location is ideal!
The cabin was clean and had plenty of room for our family if 4 to spread out. Appliances were new, property was clean, and the hot tub was nice. You are close to other cabins, however the surrounding trees and shrubs make it seem more secluded. The cabin is close to stores and restaurants, the scenery was beautiful. The only reason I am not leaving a 5 star review is the bed in the master bedroom. It squeaked every time I moved, the mattress was not very comfortable, and the pillows were flat. Taking that into consideration, I would still give this rental a 4.8.

This property badly needs to be up dated, new paint and carpeting would help a lot. The bathroom sink upstairs needs to be replaced as it has many worn spots and chips. Small amenities are missing such as a dust pan to go with the broom and a waste basket in the upstairs bed room. Watch out for the extra "service" fee.However, the location can't be beat and is very close to the resort.
Good location, cute neighborhood but no working Hot Tub. Initially Vacasa staff seemed confused about whether or not property even had a hot tub which was frustrating. I noticed the hot tub photo was removed from listing days before check in, but was never notified it didn’t work before I arrived . Local management confirmed it was not operating and I'm waiting for a partial refund .

Overall great, hot tub didn’t work
Overall we loved our stay and the place was a great space, great location. However the hot tub didn’t work when we got there. It was the main reason we chose this rental over others. We reached out to management and they weren’t able to get someone out to fix it until the next day however no one ever came to fix the issue. Management was quick to respond but not very helpful. Disappointed about the hot tub and spending the extra money for this amenity but otherwise the place was great.
My husband and I enjoyed our short stay for our honeymoon! Lots of snow and beautiful scenery, super close to all of Girdwood / Alyeska amenities. Comfy beds and most things you need in the kitchen.
A Keurig and maybe a few other more commonly used items (we left cooking spray for others) would be helpful, if you plan to cook I would recommend checking the cupboard before you go shopping or bring all you'll need.
Beware there isn't a lot of hot water so you may need to space out showers.
Extra blankets in the livingroom would be another great perk. We used an extra blanket from the closet, but hate to dirty a larger linen just to cozy up on the couch.
Overall we loved the place, and it was plenty roomy for a family. Beautiful views and available hot tub to use!
Hoping we can visit here again!
Nice home and clean. Few concerns. Hot tub is in full view of all the neighbors so was not used. There are no window coverings in living room so we're in a fish bowl surrounded by neighbors when it's dark. Recliners sound like they'll break as soon as you recline. Shower handle comes completely off so you have to balance it back on to turn water on & to off.
Chalet #5 was generally clean, somewhat updated with good windows; furnishings were dated but in good repair and comfortable. The overall finishes were a hodgepodge, no cohesive decorating theme. Good lighting. Bathtub and hot tub were both clean. Nice dishwasher and clothes washer with adequate supplies of detergent. Comfortable bed in master.
Areas of concern:
Light bulb out in refrigerator.
Upstairs bed was creaking which could be heard downstairs.
Cobwebs in the master bedroom and above main level bathroom mirror.
Sliding closet door in master off track and not movable.
Bathroom sink and tub not draining well (water pools significantly before slowly draining).
Pink mold on shower curtain.
No hair dryers.
The service fees were very high so short stay was rather expensive, more than staying at Alyeska Resort. Being able to bring a dog was the reason to choose this chalet so it fit our needs well.

Cute Hot Tub-Less Chalet
We arrived and were happy to see that the Chalet was as it appeared in the listing A little smaller than expected but quant. We were very disappointed at the condition of the deck covered in leaves and debris and broken tree limbs that had not been cleared from the deck We were excited to use the hot tub as this was a major selling point for us But unfortunately it didn't work the water was ice cold and the fuse box for the hot tub kept tripping when we tried it so we decided it wasn't safe I called VRBO customer service and they said someone would get back to me within the hour Someone called the next morning and apologized for the inconvenience and that someone would be out the following day to fix it
I explained that we were checking out the next day He again apologized and offered a refund of $150.00 and let us have a late check out at noon
It wasn't the money that mattered honestly When you rent a VRBO with the expectation of having a hot tub and it doesn't work its frustrating You can't check in until 4pm because there is someone there cleaning Wouldn't they check the cleanliness of the hot tub and be sure its working? It was very disappointing Also even though they said we can check out at noon instead of 10am the cleaning guy was knocking at our door at 10am wondering why we were not ready to leave so obviously No communication I'll rent somewhere else next time
