Fabulous place to stay in Anchorage
We loved our stay here! The rooms were very comfortable. There was plenty of space. The owners have a nice collection of spices in the kitchen to use while cooking and plenty of dishes. We loved the collections of Alaska books in the house; our party read many of them. I liked the fact there were kids games available (even though this time, we didn't have any kids with us). The owners were very easy to contact and very friendly. We didn't have any problems, but if we had, we've have been able to find them. Lovely neighborhood, we walked outside most evenings. Location was convenient to grocery stores -- just a couple miles away as well as a large wooded park. It was wonderful having a large family room to hang out in; much better than being in a hotel! Really nice place to stay as a homebase for an Alaskan vacation! I would definitely recommend the home!

Great stay
Five of us had a great time staying at the property. The checkin process was keyless and simple. The property was clean with a lot of spaces. Owner stopped by to say hello. The property is located in a very good and quiet neighborhood, very close to the Far North Centennial Park. Easy access to places within Anchorage. Thank you for sharing your property, Steve and Martha!

Great family stay
Wonderful house and location for our multi generational gathering! Our toddler LOVED the play room and there was great space for all of us in the living room. Provided supplies, like the stair gate and booster seat, made travel with a little one very simple. Beautiful views out the windows and the trail right behind the house was incredible for daily access. Marti was very responsive to communication and the house was well equipped for any needs. Can't recommend it enough!

Wedding spot
This was the 2nd time we stayed at Lost Anchor, our first stay was in 2022. Later in the year our daughter got engaged and was looking for a place to have a smallish wedding. The property at Lost Anchor was perfect. The owner Kevin went above and beyond to assist and make recommendations. He was available all 3 days we were there to make sure we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend staying here.

Perfect Family Getaway
Roomy home perfect for families. There is a portable crib & high chair for babies, a well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds. Private bedrooms for 4 different couples (one room had an additional queen and twin bed also) and two couches that fold out also. My family has rented this home for a week in the Spring each of the past two years. The owners live next door and are very friendly and helpful. We loved our time there!

Great for groups, and generous with the supplies!
We rented this location because it could accommodate a large group and was close to the Alaska Club East where our tennis team was competing in a tournament. We loved it because of the set up and everything the property owners provided for fun (ping pong table, Xbox, spacious living room, etc.). With the twin size cots we were able to have girls in one room, boys in another, and the parents were able to have separate rooms downstairs. They also kept it well stocked with anything you could need. I noted they provided shaving cream and hair gel, which is certainly above and beyond. 5 star, will go back!

Games and Love
The house was beautiful and provided lots of amenities! There was plenty of room for everyone in our group of 3 couples (2 with children) and 2 singles. With the rain we made great use of the provided board games and garage space. The large living room lent itself to an in-person gaming tournament (platforms brought by guests). A great neighborhood although the rain kept us from utilizing the nearby park. I would suggest clarifying that there are really only two bathrooms, as that would make it easier to plan.

Amazing Anchorage Stay
We stayed with a larger group of 12 including children of all ages. This was the perfect set up, with plenty of space/beds, safety accommodations for an infant, toys and activities for the older kids. All within short distances of all anchorage has to offer. Well supplied kitchen and lots of basic necessities supplied in the bathroom.
