Exceptional

The property is beautiful - clean, comfortable, and homely. The hosts, Heather and Doug, are both absolutely the best. Heather made us feel so welcomed and she was incredibly supportive when we had last-minute plan changes during our stay there. Highly recommend!
Unique spacious space, lots provided for breakfast on your own - including fresh eggs!
Use of bikes was great.
Owners very friendly
Didn't know there were stairs to unit, but only one flight.
Owners were very kind and resourceful. Everything was clean and in order. Breakfast was very healthy. We even eat eggs from their own chicken. They were very joyful to share insights about Alaska. We had a great time and would recommend the facility to anyone with a family of 4 or less
Clean, comfortable, great hosts, accommodating, helpful and friendly. Great yard with beautiful sitting terrace. Would definitely come again!

Thumbs up to Gardenside
We stayed 2 nights with Heather and Doug.
Our accommodations included living/dining, kitchen, and bathroom.
Every room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained.
Our kitchen was stocked with fresh fruit, and homemade zucchini bread, The fridge was stocked with water, juice, milk, yogurt, and preserves,
Gardenside was such a peaceful B & B. Heather anticipated our every need. Both she and Doug helped with getting luggage inside and outside the suite.
We wish we could have stayed for a few more days, but we had a ship to catch.
We highly recommend the Gardenside B&B over motel/hotel accommodations.
The bed and breakfast area is the lower level of this lovely property. It is private, spacious, clean and quiet. The owners are on site and wonderful to sit and visit with if you so wish. Or you can just quietly relax in your private area as you unwind from a long day of adventure.
We were in Anchorage as a base to visit four national parks (Katmai, Lake Clark, Denali, and Kenai Fjords) and stayed at the Gardenside after a camping trip in Kenai National Park and before going up to Denali. We loved it and would have stayed after our Denali trip except that they were booked. Beautiful basement setting with garden and trees below B&B, really close to great restaurants, book stores and such, and the host was perfect. The facilities were great, lots of space, great bed, very good breakfast including home made bread. We really had no complaints and would stay there again if in the Anchorage area.
