Jarvi Homestay Bed and Breakfast

"The friendly greeting from Mary and Dan when we arrived set the tone for our 3 day visit. Our room was clean, neat, and cozy and we enjoyed the chocolate covered bedside treats. Mornings began with a friendly hello and delicious Espresso and Americano coffee and custom juices, continuing with a leisurely, satisfying breakfast (fresh fruits, yogurt, danishes, scrambles, hashbrowns, bacon) and wonderful conversation. We relaxed in the evenings with a dip in the hot tub and several sessions in the massage chair. Mary and Dan are a wealth of information when it comes to places to eat and sites to see. Put down your Google map and TripAdvisor, they will fill you in on the best places to go. When we come back to Anchorage for our next visit, we will definitely look up Jarvi Homestay."

"Mary and Dan were the perfect hosts. Each day a new and exciting extravagant breakfast and sharing stories of adventure. Their local knowledge and contacts made our vacation so much better and we explored like a local. Hiking, river rafting, glacier cruises, ATV adventures all within striking distance from this home away from home overlooking the famous turnagain arm. Two great bedrooms, a private den and living area, private bathroom with shower and washer/drier set up. Why would you ever stay in a hotel like a tourist when you can meet these great hosts and make a new friend. Alaska is unique in outdoor exploration and adventure. Enjoy it like a local! Alan & Flo White PS we took our 17 year old grandson with us on this trip and he said it was the best ever!"

"Fantastic place to stay in a beautiful place. Short drive to airport, downtown, mall, and Judy's Cafe. Art museum, Whittier, Flattop Overlook Trail, Portage Glacier, Wildlife conservation, and great breweries ... not far away! The downstairs rooms provide much privacy with the bathroom a few steps away..the bathroom with heated floors, that is! Washer/dryer/mini fridge/coffee machine/TV all available! Mary and Dan were more than accommodating and Lucas (the house pup) made the experience that much better. Great hosts with a wealth of advice about the town and local attractions."
