Waterfront vacation rentals in Matanuska-Susitna Borough

Brett was available upon our arrival. He gave us clear and accurate instructions for use of the hot tub and bicycles if we were interested. Brett also shared several names of local restaurants, which we tried and confirm as excellent.

Amazing place to stay! Right in the middle of downtown but it doesn’t feel that way. Peaceful and unobstructed view of the water. Quiet neighborhood as well. Great option!

This was such a peaceful place to stay with amazing views. The bed was comfortable and the place was very clean!

Our stay was wonderful! This place has so much room. We had 2 grandchildren (age 5 & 10) with us and they loved it also. Only issue we had was a complaint from people whom lived below. We respected the quiet hours from 10-10 everyday. We did not know 1 of them worked 2nd shift, and got woke up by the kids couple mornings? They were playing tag out on deck one time. We told them we were sorry and would try to respect their wishes. From then on we worried about being quiet. This place is very close to grocery stores, gas, Walmart, Fred Meyer’s, and restaurants. Wonderful place to stay and very convenient. There is a park 2 lots down which we went to and kids played and fed ducks. There is also a Church (Creekside Church) about 5 miles away, very nice Church and made us feel welcomed. The kids loved the Children’s Church also. This place had everything we needed. The view was spectacular.

Amazing airbnb with amazing hosts. Definitely recommended and will try and stay again if available.

Diane & Jonathon’s apartment was a great place for us to start our Alaskan trip in Anchorage. The location is perfect and has everything you need. Great views of the water and park! Would stay here again.

We stayed at Gary's place for a week during a conference I attended in Anchorage. The location is great - close enough to walk into central areas but far enough to get peace and quiet for the city. The appartement is great and comfortable, and the views to the ocean and mountains are incredible! We strongly recommend you to stay at Gary's!

The apartment was great for me and friends to celebrate a birthday. Kurt has everything you need and it’s so beautifully on the lake. Love this property😍

Daniel’s place had an amazing lakeside view and the house was fully stocked with anything you needed. Even had the opportunity to use the kayaks with life jackets from the garage. Would most definitely stay again. Friend left her camera behind after check out and he was very quick to respond and help us with recovering it. Great stay!

This house was stunning— inside and out. What a great view for Alaska! The space had a modern aesthetic—clean lines, comfortable furniture, and thoughtful touches throughout. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed (plus a few extras). Check-in was smooth, and the host was friendly and responsive. If you're looking for a place with an incredible view, clean and modern vibes, and a peaceful atmosphere, this is it. I’d absolutely stay here again.

This was a fun place to stay! The views were amazing and the kids especially enjoyed riding the elevator to the top floor (my youngest is 12 and could be trusted with it. If you have younger ones that might be a consideration). This is a great location for making a day trip up to Denali or for visiting any of the other trails or parks around the area. Note the water had a bit of a taste to it. The provided britta filter took care of it mostly but if you’re picky bringing some bottled water may be a good idea. Everything was spotlessly clean and had a vintage Alaska feel. We’d definitely recommend for any friends.

We arrived to a house exactly as described. Great location right near the lake and close to the airport. Mostly quiet with the occasional buzz of seaplanes taking off. The house was beautiful, the beds were comfortable and Johanna was very responsive. I would love to stay here again and highly recommend it if you're looking for something in the Anchorage area.

Allison's place is amazing! Gorgeous setting with canoe, kayak and fishing that kept our kids.. ages 8 & 11... entertained all weekend while the adults relaxed on the dock in the sunshine! The inside of the house was pretty and well maintained!There is only one bathroom. But for the 5 of us, we hot along fine. Allison was very responsive to questions. A great host with a great place to make memories. Thanks, Allison!

Great spot! Best location you could ask for in downtown Anchorage. Next to the trail, a playground, and just up the hill to multiple good spots to eat. Very quiet and serene. Easy check in. Clean. Nice beds and pillows. Highly recommend!

This place is a hidden gem! It is private but close to town and right on a lake. The kitchen was very well stocked (but not obnoxiously). The beds were clean and you can’t beat the view. Bummed we only stayed one night. Will be back!

The penthouse was beautiful overlooking the lake to the range. Plenty to do with Kayaks, paddle boards and games available. We enjoyed just sitting and watching the lake. The unit was well appointed with modern amenities. There was no laundry however there is a coin laundry in nearby Talkeetna. The drive to Denali is only around 2 hours with beautiful scenery the whole way. The unit is stunning and I would 100% recommend! We would love to go back!
