This is one of the best places that we have ever stayed. we travel a lot around the country and state and have many experiences with wonderful locations and this is one of the best we have seen in recent years. The house itself is a work of art, I enjoyed walking around looking at the construction, the pegged joints and aesthetic! but better yet, the view is amazing and the complete privacy coupled with the view from the hot tub is over the top.... we had cozy fires in the wood stove at night and tons of relaxing in the hot tub. great family stay, the kids loved it...
Frank B. Aug 2020
Just great property with stunning back of the home view. Inside home is always great and even with a fridge setback, the property manager did his best to get the temporary fridge by early evening
ROBERTA P. Jul 2020
Beautiful setting, outrageous inside?
Audette F. Jul 2020
We really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. The setting is peaceful. You can walk into town- Our kids brought their skateboards and loved the walking/bike paths. The kitchen worked well for us. We cooked breakfast daily and just a few dinners.
Tips: Get your groceries in Anchorage prior to arriving. Girdwood has a nice little store but it doesn’t have everything.

The gas grill cannot be used and should be taken off the list. There is a charcoal grill but to much work for us
The tv has sticky notes all over to explain how to use the remotes. Very confusing and needs to be typed out.
The stove gas line was turned off. We had to search around and figure it out. Would have been nice to have a booklet with information.

We stayed 6 night and ran out of toilet paper by day 3. (5 adults) they should provide larger rolls and extra toilet paper. They only provided 3 pods for laundry. I would have brought my own but the sight said it was provided. I had to clean towels 1/2 way through the week.

Just little issues that can easily be fixed.

Again we enjoyed this property and would stay again.
Vacasa should
Manager response:
Hi, Audette! The owner is providing a new grill, and the TV notes have been cleaned up. Please be advised we only provide information via the web now instead of books in the home, and we only provide a 'starter' pack of consumable supplies. Thank you!

Just a great property.
Randi B. May 2020
This home was perfect for my family with enough different sleep spaces and areas that everyone had their own space. The woodwork was gorgeous and the concrete floors were easy to clean up with three kids running in an out. The hot tub was a hit with the kids as was playing in the creek right on the property. WiFi and a blu ray player would have been the only things to push it over the top, but it was actually nice telling the kids “sorry, no WiFi!” A small fire pit to use in the gravel parking area would be nice for roasting marshmallows but we improvised with the charcoal grill. Overall, highly recommend. So many amenities and size for the price. Thank you for the great stay!

This home was very clean and cozy and I would definitely recommend to future renters. Our check in was for 4 pm, however, we were able to check in 1 hour earlier which was very nice! Also, I love the heated floors and the central vacuum! The one thing I wish the cabin had was WiFi. Overall, great stay!
Marina B. Mar 2020
Very comfortable home for a family get away.
mary p. Jan 2020
This is a great house. It’s very comfortable and had nice light. Excellent location for access to Alyeska Ski resort.
I did find the kitchen lacking significantly. It was described as a Gourmet kitchen, however the pans were terrible (Teflon pealing off the pans) and knives were completely dull.
Manager response:
We are happy that you enjoyed this lovely home. Thank you for mentioning the condition of the pans and knives. We informed the manager so he can replace them. We hope to see you again soon!

We rented "iris pond" over the New Years holiday. It was my family of four along with my brothers family of three. The home accommodated all of us very comfortable. There are plenty of bedrooms, beds and baths so that everyone was very well cared for during our stay. The home itself is a beautiful custom built home with in-floor heat which was an awesome luxury (especially with all that wet ski gear). The location is very quiet with a bubbling brook running past the hot-tub on the back deck. Takes only 5 minutes to drive to the ski slopes and less to the brewery!

I booked this home and did not realize it had no WiFi! I wanted to get away with my family, enjoy the slopes, fine dining, relaxing in hot tub....watching TV/movies together but I also work from “home” and needed to spend a few hours a day working. Due to no WiFi, I had to go to the hotel, drag my mobile office with me, find outlets and work there. Very inconvenient. Took double the time to complete my work. Stressful and inconvenient. Even if I didn’t have to use WiFi to work, who this day and age doesn’t offer WiFi in the hospitality business. Would NOT book a stay at Iris Pond again unless WiFi and TV cable working.

We love this place. All in perfect condition.
Tayleah C. Oct 2019
I have always loved this home. It nice a big for several families and the view is out of this world.
Evelyn O. Sep 2019
Iris Pond is not only beautiful, it’s well equipped with all your cooking needs. The house also has a beautiful view of Alyeska.
Alan T. Sep 2019
Our group of 3 stayed here for 5 days and were extremely pleased. Lot's of space, clean throughout and a great, well stocked kitchen. Easy drive to local restaurants and grocery store. Nice and friendly neighbors. We would definitely stay here again.
Mark K. Sep 2019
Beautiful home. Would stay here again if we are back In Alaska.

Laura C. Apr 2019
This is the 3rd time a group of 5 of us have rented this home. Its nicely laid out, great quiet location. Will rent again.
Stephanie W. Feb 2019
This vacation home was perfect for 6 adults and provided a great setting for board games, conversation and cooking together. The hot tub was a bonus, too!

Rachel P. Jan 2019
This cabin was excellent for our family of four. Conveniently located to the slopes and plenty of room for all of us to be comfortable.
Richard A. Jan 2019
Amazing setting, very well thought out architecture. A great place for R&R.
Nicholas K. Dec 2018
This is our 4th time at Iris. Love it. Beautiful home. Beds are comfortable. Basic cable, nice hot tub, decent commons area for socializing, make sure your car is 4wd in the winter months.
Karen l. Dec 2018
This home is spacious and beautiful. It was well stocked with everything we needed. We will be renting this home again.
