All I can say is WOW! Connie went above and beyond to accommodate our family of 2 adults and 3 kids aged 7 to 11. We had paid for a 2 bedroom, and Connie graciously opened up the 3rd bedroom for us gratis. It was much appreciated, and very thoughtful.
We stayed in the right hand side unit of Moon Song. Very comfortable beds, lots of linens, full washer and dryer, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, oven, halogen stove and.......a full suite of kitchen appliances from a food processor to a KitchenAid mixer. Want to make muffins? There's a muffin tin, baking pans, measuring cups, cookie sheets, rice cooker, mixing bowls and so on and so on. Need something specific? Just ask Connie- she used to run a catering business so has just about every kitchen tool known to humanity.
The location is in a wonderfully funky part of Anchorage. if you are looking for the regular tourist fare, stay downtown. Staying in Spenard will allow you to see the "real" Anchorage, and is within comfortable walking distance of some amazing local restaurants, grocery stores, and Title Wave, an amazing used book emporium.
The host, Connie is a wealth of information about cool spots in Anchorage and around Alaska. We felt like we got the VIP treatment and got see feed the koi in Connie's private koi pond (incredible!) and were gifted with fresh eggs from her sister's chickens. And, I cannot forget how accommodating Connie was with all of our vehicle difficulties (that's a review for another website).
Sure the accommodations are fabulous, but what makes this property really stand out is the garden. We ate many meals in the garden, and the kids had an area where they could play outside (while things have opened up due to COVID, our kids are not vaccinated and so a lot of things are still in the "caution" phase for us).
The pictures don't do justice to the uniqueness of this VRBO. You won't be disappointed!
