“Great Stay with Alta House!”

Reviewed 26 September 2012

I was very excited to stay in the Olympic Condo while traveling around Anchorage, Girdwood and Whittier and was very pleased by the end of our two night stay. For the same price as a two bed room in the middle of Anchorage, this alternative lodging was a great change of pace with highly superior scenery. I live in a... More

I called on short notice inquiring about the alta house chalet and to my luck it was available.

Upon arriving I met with Linda who gave me the run down of checking in and also gave me suggestions for things that were going... More

“Great Hotel Alternative”

Reviewed 6 August 2012

Alta House Chalets were clean and comfortable and the customer service was very good. They helped with deciding which rental would be best and responded quickly when I requested an extra comforter (I need two just for myself!) The Village properties are great for family members to have their own units and still be close together. I liked the privacy... More

Thanks for checking us out! We're happy to have been able to provide a comfortable alternative to you and your family, rather than simply staying in a hotel. We're always happy to accommodate requests like an extra comforter, too. We can't have you shivering, now can we? Your great review is much appreciated, and we'd love to see you again... More

“Pretty Bad Time”

Reviewed 24 July 2012 via mobile

After shelling out over 1k to stay in a tiny guest apartment for a long weekend, I was hopeful that all would be ok. The website said all units come equipped with everything you need...not the case. There were no extra towels, no cookware, no toilet paper or paper towels...nothing. Between the exposed tacks in the floor that cut our... More

I'm very sorry to hear that you weren't pleased with your stay earlier this year. You should have been equipped with all you needed in your unit, and I can certainly address this with the staff to make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen. I appreciate you bringing your concerns to the attention of our front desk, but I'm... More

Very clean accommodations. It rained our entire stay so having a great place to stay was key. Great customer service. everyone was helpful and smiling even at 11:30 at night when I managed to lock myself out of the house. The gal came over on her bike! How cool is that?

We stayed at the Alta House Chalet, the largest property that the company maintains in Girdwood, Alaska. We had such a great time. I was visiting with my wife and we met some of her friends from Anchorage for the weekend in Girdwood. The town itself is wonderful - it is just large enough to have plenty to do but... More

“Clean and nicely furnished”

Reviewed 26 February 2008

We rented the Slopeside Condo for two days. The goods: the condo was really beautifully appointed and very nicely decorated. The owners do all the work themselves and they did such a nice job with the place. The condo was very convenient to skiing and to the local hotspots (of which there are not many, but you know, it counts).... More

“Alta House - Ripped off by cleaning fee”

Reviewed 31 January 2006

We were shocked 10 days after departing Alta House when the owner told us she had charged our credit card $200 in excess cleaning fees increasing the cost of our stay by 33%. The rental agreement with her specified excess cleaning charges only for "excessively dirty". We did not leave this place "excessively dirty" but at that point it is... More
