My fiance took me up to Girdwood for a surprise valentines day thing. When he said we were staying…read moreat a bed and breakfast since the Alyeska hotel was completely booked, I began to panic a bit. I always imagined B&B's to be kinda awkward and weird staying with strangers in a home. But all my assumptions were completely wrong. This place was amazing!! The home is sooo beautiful and spacious. They have 3 bedrooms downstairs with a large den area with a tv and lots of dvds. There is also a hot tub outside on the deck as well. A door is located downstairs so it makes it convenient for you to go in and out as you please. Each bedroom has a bathroom inside so you don't have to worry about sharing the bathroom with strangers. The rooms are very spacious and you really feel at home. They have complementary soaps, lotions, toothpaste and everything like a hotel. For breakfast, they print out a customized menu with your names on top. Such a nice touch! I loved it. Breakfast comes with coffee/tea and juices, fruit plate and a choice of a breakfast entree. They cook it as you order it. The owners were very friendly and made it a very comfortable stay. I would totally recommend this B&B to anymore. Differently a great experience!

We stayed for two nights in July, 2016, and would definitely recommend staying here! This property…read morewas built specifically to function as a B&B, and it's clear that Michelle and Ron put a great deal of thought into building their home as a warm, inviting, and very functional space. We arrived a little late the first night, and were greeted by Michelle, who gave us a quick tour, taking us through the dining room on the main level, downstairs to the common sitting room from which the three guest rooms are accessed. As one example of a smart design, guests access the sitting room by way of a separate downstairs entrance, with plenty of spots for wet shoes and jackets in the entryway. (Shoes off while in the B&B!) We stayed in the Creekside Suite, which provided ample and comfortable space for us and our two adult children. Michelle made us feel welcome and right at home. As did the delicious cookies she left for us! The room was great. If we had to make any suggestion, it would be to provide some sort of movable privacy screen in the bathroom. Not needed for a couple, but would be helpful when traveling as a family. Breakfasts were fantastic, with a daily custom menu with many tempting alternatives from which to choose. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we had. Michelle and Ron are fabulous hosts. They are friendly and hospitable, great conversationalists, and helped us with great tips to enjoy our stay in the area. We didn't get to spend a lot of time with Bailey the dog (apparently, he's not allowed to join the guests for breakfast!), but he was out when we went up to say goodbye on our last day. He's a big, lovable teddy bear of a dog. Be careful once you start petting him--he may not let you stop! :) The Girdwood area is beautiful. We enjoyed some hiking (Winner's Creek and Virgin Creek Falls) while we were in the area, in between our other planned activities: a dog sled ride on Punchbowl Glacier, and the 26 Glacier boat tour out of Whittier. Hidden Creek B&B was the perfect home away from home for us in Girdwood, and we would definitely stay there if we are ever again fortunate enough to return to the area. Thank you, Ron and Michelle!

Since we were the only couple staying that night, Carol gave us the option to stay in any room we want. We had the entire place for us and we liked the corner room. The room was big with a TV, double sink and an attached bathroom. We checked-in late in the evening and were planning to go for a drive to the Portage glacier, which was only a 15 min drive from there. But the place looked so homely, that we cancelled all plans and decided to rather relax. The breakfast next morning was a treat; Carol had kept everything ready for us; tea, coffee, bread, eggs, cereals, juice, yogurt, fruits. We had a hearty breakfast! We talked to Carol before we left. She was such a warm person, loved talking to her.

However, there are a couple of improvement points. There was no housekeeping offered during our stay, so it was unclear how to get new towels or how to remove trash. Additionally, the entry system confuses a lot of people at first (ourselves included). This leads to incessant doorbell ringing and beeping noises, despite the fact that there is not a staff member on duty to let anyone in. Also, there were times where the front door was just left open because it is a bit hard to close and there is no staff member to check these things. If you are looking to focus on the activities you do in Alaska as opposed to just your stay, this may be a good option .

See other review about how some guests leave the front door open). There is no way to lock the room from inside of the room. When I voiced my concerns to the manager he just told me to move the fridge in front of the door. (What????). On the positive side it is clean and in a decent location. The little diner next to it is fantastic for breakfast.

I'd recommend this 100% - priced fairly, clean, comfortable beds, TVs, WiFi and more.

My "room" was really a small apartment of 3 rooms: bedroom, living room, and small bathroom. All had nice furnishings that fit the time period of the house. Breakfast consisted of hard-boiled eggs, a variety of meats and cheeses, yogurt, and granola. It was filling and a good healthy start to a day of walking. There is a grocery store on the next block, and a bakery two blocks away. The B&B is on I & 13th, which is walkable to just about anything downtown. And you pass by Star the Reindeer on the way!

It is an excellent get away spot that is just right to relax and enjoy being in Alaska. The cabin is heated with a modern bathroom and partial kitchen. By partial kitchen I mean: refrigerator, microwave, sink and coffee maker. There is a gas grill on the front porch however. The cabin sleeps four with two in the master bed and two in the small single beds in the loft. There is also plenty of room for others to stretch out on the floor. The owner, Maggie, is very friendly and helpful. Hope, AK is small but is a very clean and nice historical town. Check out the Seaview Cafe for a great beer selection, delicious food and an amazing view. Definitely add the Black Bear B&B and Hope, AK as a side trip as you tour the Kenai Peninsula.

Family sized body wash, shampoo & moisturizer instead of small, travel sized bottles. Please use and leave for the next guest. The bed was comfortable bed but smelled strongly of fabric softener. I suggested to the owner that she switch to unscented detergent & dryer sheets for sensitive guests. She'd never thought about that and said she'd change. I enjoyed looking at the tall spruce trees outside the 2nd floor window. Mountains soar from the front and back yards. It's a beautiful location. My room was decorated with a picture of the Portland (Maine) Head light made from puzzle on wall. The building has a community lounge with TV & movies. No in-room television. It felt more like a motel than a Bed and Breakfast. Less personal, less intimate. Breakfast as in a Best Western - self-serve bowls of HB eggs, bagels & packets of cream cheese, small boxes of cereals, bowl of bananas, apples; etc - a few muffins. Nothing homemade. If I'm in the area again, I'd probably stay there again. It is was a good value for the price and especially for Alaska. $85. Visa & Master Card only. No American Express.
