What are good areas to stay in around Anchorage? Should I try

Wouldn’t stay in downtown, it’s getting pretty dicey. South Anchorage is quite nice. As is waterfront.

Girdwood is the best place.

Girdwood is nice, though doubtful you’ll get accommodations there on this short notice this time of year

It’s not that far. The Spa at Alyeska is nice. Resort ski town. 30-40 min away

Alyeska to Anchorage Airport is 50-60 min without traffic. No way it’s ever 30 min. I’ve driven it many times.

You must drive slow! I can get from Girdwood to Eagle River in 60 min.

Just go plug it in Apple Maps 🤷🏻‍♂️ Says 50 minutes right now.

It doesn’t matter. Good luck finding a place this late in the game

I’d get a VRBO/airbnb outside of Anchorage like Seward or Palmer

Jun 2, 1:01pm

Seward is 2 hours away, so tough to do if you’re going to do stuff in Anchorage.

Agreed. Alaska is best when not in Anchorage

Jun 2, 1:44pm

Best part of living in Anchorage was that it was only 15 minutes from Alaska 😅

We’re in Seward for 2 days before heading up to Anchorage. Will basically have

Go rent bikes from Pete at Downtown Bicycle and ride the coastal trail. Eat at South and Moose’s Tooth.
