This house has its own kitchen on the main floor, family room is downstairs, laundry room is in the basement, and upstairs is an open concept bedroom with the loft and a comfortable queen bed that would offer much-needed rest after exploring the Alaskan outdoors. Cornhole and badminton games (in the shed) are the perfect opportunities to play in the large, grassed yard, or maybe just kick back and rest on the outdoor chairs, that you’ll find in the shed while admiring Alaskan beauty. Ocean View park is just around the corner where tennis courts, children’s park with zip line, BBQ area in the pavilion. Take a short walk in the park and admire ocean views.

Very nice, very comfortable. Thank you for being a great host.
We had a great stay at the cottage. It was out of the city center which we prefer but a quick 10-15 minute to downtown and about the same to the airport. Very quick to get in to Anchorage and also great location for heading to Seward and the attractions that way. The arrangements were great for our little family of 4. If my kids had been any older or I had any more with me, I would have wanted another bathroom. The cottage was clean and had all of the necessities. The washer and dryer was a huge plus for the property. Olia was available if we had any questions but left us alone to enjoy our trip. Overall a great stay.

Cozy and Convenient
Olia was a superb hostess. She did a phenomenal job with the interior decorating. Cozy warm private place. Close to markets, bars, restaurants and Ted Stevens Int'l Airport. Easy commute to all the top restaurants and shopping. Olia made sure I had everything I need. She is super responsive. If you're staying in Anchorage..I highly recommend staying at Olia's place on your next visit to Anchorage.

Great Little Home
This house was such a fun, comfortable experience for our family of 4. There was plenty of storage if you are staying for extended periods like we did. The house is also very well stocked--it has everything you would need plus refills/extras! The property is amazing with a huge grass yard. We loved playing outside. It's also just down the road from a fun park. It's a nice, quiet neighborhood and all-around great location. You will love it here!

Beautiful Cottage
We loved our time in the Birch Cottage! Communication with owner was timely and pleasant. My daughter (9) loved sleeping in the loft area above the bedroom. Beautifully furnished with everything provided from dishes to appliances. It was the perfect anchor location for our travels in town and south along Kenai Peninsula. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Our stay at the cottage we saw the Aurora Borealis
We loved our stay in Anchorage. Very safe neighborhood. We stood outside at 1am to see the Aurora Borealis for one hour in 18 degree weather. Felt totally safe. A police car drove by. We had everything we needed in the cottage. Loads of snow when we arrived and melted quite a bit by the time we left. Near good restaurants and hiking. Really good communication too!!! Many thanks!!

Week at the cottage
Very nice place. Owners very accommodating, got us in early, and in the middle of the night. Place was clean, supplied with towels, coffee, kitchen gear, clean bedding. Nice safe neighborhood. Grocery store nearby. Good breakfast cafe within 1 mile. Close to freeway access. Highly recommend!
These property owners went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and even stayed up late to let us in after our arrival flight was delayed! Our family came to town on short notice to care for family in Alaska. This cottage served all our wishes for rest and a taste of home away from home. Thank you, Olia and Greg!
