We had a wonderful ski weekend at Kyle’s place. It was spacious, clean & roomy! In contrast to other airbnbs we’ve stayed at, Kyles place had every kitchen amenity we needed & was great for meal prep & dining. Beds were comfy & everything was clean. Thanks Kyle!
Originally named Glacier City, Girdwood was founded as a gold mining town. As the number of miners increased, a supply camp arose that also supplied a trail stop on the route between Seward and Ship Creek - the latter of which is now known as Anchorage. Today, Girdwood is loved as a unique recreation destination, thanks to a picturesque setting, an extensive network of trails, and the award-winning Alyeska Resort.
Our home sits in the history rich "mining streets" area of Girdwood near the mouth of the Valley where the sun shines just a little brighter. We were attracted to this area for the beautiful views of Penguin Ridge, the close proximity to Anchorage, the wilderness, and to our playground...Alyeska Resort. Alyeska is one of the snowiest places on the planet with the longest ski season of any resort in the country. Flashback to 1917, Girdwood had about 60 permanent residents. Even then the weekend population swelled to about 300 with visitors from Anchorage. Can you imagine what that journey was like then? Main Street in Girdwood had 16 buildings, 5 of which were saloons, the most popular being the Little Dipper Inn. Girdwood was built by hard working and fun loving men and women, a characteristic that persists to this day. The tradition continues as Girdwood still serves as a unique and tranquil place to escape. Your luxury refuge in the rainforest awaits. Ski ya later!
