Slope Side Apartments
About Us
This wonderful apartment has all the comforts and amenities to make yourself at home in an Alaskan mountain setting. With a separate entrance on the first floor, this unit has one bedroom with a queen and single bed and the couch/futon pulls out to another double bed in the living room. There is a washer and dryer in the unit and soap is provided. It is in a perfect location to walk to the restaurants and shops nearby, yet the street is very quiet and away from any traffic. A biking/walking trail is located two minutes from your door.
Area
This area is considered the northernmost expanse of the Pacific temperate rain forest. The lush mountains in the summer receive more than 600 inches of snow in the winter. Hanging glaciers surround the valley, connecting to the massive ice fields of Prince William Sound. Bears, moose, Dall sheep, mountain goats, eagles, and other wildlife are often seen in the area and right in town. Girdwood's small community is 'Alaska' and well worth the drive out of Anchorage.
Location
The Slope Side Apartment is located in Girdwood, just 35 miles south of Anchorage (50 mins. from Anchorage International Airport). Traveling down on the very scenic Seward Highway, you will enjoy spectacular scenery and arrive at the friendly feeling of this small town in the forest.
