Wish we could have stayed longer

The look of the cabin is awesome. The kids loved sleeping up in the loft. Having the ability to do laundry was key for us and the location was closer than Anchorage to get to Whittier for our glacier tour.

Nice 1 night stay

This was ideal for myself and 3 out of state guests I was touring around. We had just left an RV excursion through the Denali Highway. We were able to shower, do laundry, sleep well and your Whittier, Portage Crow Creek, and the Double Muskie, before heading to my house in the Kenai for Salmon fishing. Nice, clean, comfortable well located.

Cute leaning cabin

This was a cute, old cabin (the whole house is leaning) in a small neighborhood. It felt calm and secluded and had everything we needed for our stay. If you're staying here, definitely check out the short hike to Virgin Creek Falls - it was incredible!

Great location but outdated cabin

Overall stay in the cabin was pleasant, beautiful rustic cabin feels in an amazing girdwood location. However the property requires major upgrades. The shower in one of the bathroom was not working.

Loved the cabin. There were plenty of beds for our party. The sauna was a great addition to get warm and help wind down the night.

Teen Birthday Ski Weekend

So cute, the loft was perfect for the teens. Super close to slopes. Adult bedroom removed from the kids, thank you. Watching DVDs from the diverse collection was nostalgic and fun.

Beautiful and very comfortable log cabin.. It looks a little rough on the outside...but beautiful interior. Roads ran on both sides of the cabin..but very little traffic in September when we were there. Walking distance to the ski area for hiking.

Review

Cabin is cute, clean enough. Alot of slants. There was issues with electricity, one day lost power to part of place, next day breaker blew for kitchen. The fan/light combo in living room should be looked at, it flashes and wobbles really bad like the light part is about to fall. Would also have been nice to hose down the outside porch-layers of pollen! May look at doing again next July tho, convenient to Forest Fair. Thank you

wish there was human customer service

nice place overall, no internet which wasn't a big deal for us but just misleading advertising. maybe it could have been troubleshooted but we couldnt reach an actual human for help, customer service was just a robot. Check in was delayed an hour too. Main issue was being unable to communicate with an actual person for help, only a chat bot.

Rustic

The photos are a bit misleading. The place is very darkish and the floors are very slanted and sloped. The neighborhood seemed fine. No one in Alaska mows lawns so it’s very much like staying in the woods. We didn’t use the kitchen. It was mostly clean. The place is very worn and dated.

Great location but outdated cabin

Overall great stay for the price, however the cabin feels outdated and requires upgrades. For example shower was not working in one of the bathroom.

Small cabin in the woods

Window in bedroom would not close. Beds are listed incorrectly as the master has a double not a queen. Has a sauna but it does not work. It was clean and cozy. Lawn needs mowed

The good and the bad

The place was adequate. We didn’t cook there so I can’t provide feedback on the kitchen. The place is dark. The pictures don’t really adequately show the place. I’m sure it was really nice in its prime. It’s old, run down, the floors slope badly and has a musty smell. The good is that it did have 4 beds, that were all fairly comfortable. It was close to restaurants on the main street and it was pretty clean, for the most part. The front porch area had a few cobwebs but we didn’t spend any time in there.

Could use some updates

When we arrived, the cleaning person was still at the residence. She told us we could come in but we went to get something to eat instead. The residence was musty smelling and I'm guessing there is no building code there because it would never pass lol. I would not stay here again and I would not recommend it. The pictures are a bit deceiving.outdated.old and outdated and wmany

Cozy Little Cabin if You Set Your Expectations Properly

This cabin was cozy and warm, in a great location, and was cleaned well before our stay. The foundation and floor are sloped and uneven, and there is a lot of general maintenance needed inside and out. It's in need of updating, but the upgrades that have been made (appliances, heater, sauna) were in good condition and working well. We didn't watch any DVDs, but there were so many to choose from, along with some games and books, and the kids loved sleeping in the loft. As long as you read through the prior reviews and set your expectations for something rustic and dated, you will find it to be cozy, comfortable, and convenient.

Alpine Meadow Log Cabin Pros and Cons

I understand that we rented on a busy weekend (Forest Fair), but the property was overpriced for what was provided. The linens are shot, the comforter had blood on it and the sheets are stained. The kitchen was minimally stocked, no foil, no coffee (even though there was a coffee pot) and the dishes/pots have seen better days. The “cabin” was rustic and cute, but truly needs a revamp! We were provided a WiFi password, but there was no internet, so I was unable to connect and work while at the property! Also, we had a delayed check in and were not provided with a entry code for nearly an hour, having us sitting outside of the property, with no access 🤷🏻‍♀️ Pluses, the loft, where the kids slept was separate from the bedroom, providing some privacy for the adults. The property is set in a beautiful, green lot, the temperate rainforest makes for a bounty of botanical and green. The property was clean, but again, the furniture and linens really need to be replaced.

We got married

0 complaints, everything was super clean and very spacious for my wife and I. Girdwood was a very cool town, the surrounding houses were beautiful! Not a complaint... but the house was outdated, my wife and i looked at it as staying in an antique kinda cabin!
