This home was absolute perfection for our needs. The 8 of us spanned ages from 4-64, and consisted of 2 couples and the family of 4 with a 4 yo girl and 6 yo boy. The master BR was perfect for the family of 4 with a large air mattress to accompany the queen bed. The other 2 BRs were very comfortable with good beds and all rooms had ample storage for clothing. The bathrooms were great.
The kitchen was outfitted with everything we could possibly need. Plenty of dishes along with cookware and excellent small and large appliances made preparation of Alaska's bounty (salmon mainly) easy.
The laundry facilities are great!
The living room is really nice with a super comfortable couch and television. Our evenings were made fun with a large selection of board games as well.
Valdez itself is perfect for a base of operations! We took salmon fishing trips in the sound, sightseeing trips, and if you hit the salmon runs, fishing from shore (near Solomon Gulch Hatchery) can be excellent. There are excellent hiking opportunities, both long and short and the wildlife is plentiful...bears, sea lions, eagles, ...
Communication was perfect all the way through.
I cannot possibly recommend this home highly enough!
