Review Submitted: December 18, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2008
We recently spent 3 nights at the Suite Retreat for ski weekend with our two kids. The home was immaculate. The beds were all very comfortable, the well stocked kitchen was spotless and the garage was an extra bonus as we got lots of snow over the weekend.
There was plenty of space, we could have had another couple with us. The hot tub was a great way to relax after a long day of skiing. Girdwood is our favorite vacation spot in Alaska and we've found our favorite place to stay.
We look forward to visiting the Suite Retreat again soon.

Amazing Ski Vacation

skiallday Colorado
Review Submitted: March 18, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2007
We stayed at the Suite Retreat while on our annual ski vacation to Alaska. . . Wow, we wouldn't have done it any other way!

The house is located in a great place. A short walk to the chair lifts, a short walk to the restaurants, bars, and store. And a short walk to the Hotel Alyeska.

The views from the property are amazing. Your are surrounded 360 degrees by towering mountains and deep blue glacial faces. Mt. Alyeska and its tram can be seen from the hot tub on the back deck.

We found the owner Bill to be very friendly and helpful. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked. My wife and I enjoyed the master bed and bath, while the children had the entire second floor to themselves.

The Girdwood Suite Retreat is one place you'll never want to leave.

Feels Like Home!

Review Submitted: January 29, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2008
What a beautiful house and a big Thank You for sharing your place in Girdwood. Clean, modern, and very well equipped property close to lifts, shops, restaurants, bars, everything, yet secluded and enveloped in trees, as stated. The deck is a great bonus, clean hot tub, totally as described, even better. Plenty of room for kids and adults. The kitchen and master bath are very comfortable and lush, as are the upstairs bedrooms and bath, as well as some really neat decorative memorabilia. Our first choice when visiting Girdwood next time!
