Historic cottage - 10 minute walk to restaurants & trails

Enjoy the privacy of this cozy cottage, situated in a quiet residential neighborhood in Slumber Village, and only a 10-minute walk from trendy restaurants, scenic walking trails, convenient public transport, bustling bars, and nearby stores. With an easy 10-minute Uber ride to the airport, you can enjoy all of the city amenities the area has to offer without sacrificing peace and tranquility. Recently renovated, this unique cottage seamlessly blends historic charm with modern comforts and amenities — perfect for those who need to stay connected with fast Wi-Fi for remote work or Zoom calls. Called the hobbit house because of the unique feel of this original build and the curved ceiling. The ceilings are low in some places so guests who need 7 feet of clearance should book elsewhere.

This little Bungalow is just adorable. It's kind of like a Hobbit House! Bungalow 8 has low ceilings. Be careful renting it if you're 6' or over. The property is nice! Now, the neighborhood, it is "up and coming" "in the middle of a revival", be that as it may, the area is safe enough to walk around, during the light hours. We'll stay there again!

The property was a quirky little cottage that was perfect for us. Very nice rehab of a pre 1964 earthquake building. Just as described in listing with outdoor seating, a grill and a firepit. Slumber Village was a great starting location for all of our excursions around Anchorage. Central to everything. Thanks Ross!

Awesome!
Booking a last minute trip with a cat can be stressful... But with Ross, you're in great hands! From the adorably comfortable size of the unit to the prompt & amazing responses from the host for any questions or concerns, I highly recommend booking here! It's a Hobbit Hovel with low ceilings and a cute little bathroom, which was perfect for my barely 5ft self. Sadly, whomever owned the unit before had either not installed or ruined the shower rod, leaving it sitting in the shower. And the hairdryer. BUT ROSS TO THE RESCUE! He got things sorted and had maintenance on it ASAP. So rest assured, the shower curtain/rod was fixed! Ross also looked for an extra hairdryer but no luck. No worries though! Ross was wonderful at offering solutions, and even offered different accommodations while the issues with the shower were resolved. They were little hiccups that didn't bother me, and Ross is a wonderful host! Will definitely come back here in the future.
