“Great Quaint Place to Stay in a quiet location with a great Host!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 June 2010

person found this review helpful

My wife and I along with my Brother and his wife decided to make this our second stop on our trip. Now thanks to google maps I thought this place was up in Eagle River Valley and not Girdwood....but thankfully to my surprise it was well worth the added trip time!!!

The woman who runs this place, Connie, is AWESOME!!! She is very laid back and casual about her guests. You feel right at home. The part I loved most, besides the location and beautiful views, was Connie. She gives you opinions about the area (or life or anything you wanna talk about)...not always saccharin sweet opinions...but real opinions!!! You don't get this kind of REAL experience from Hotels. She does not coddle you, but instead makes you feel like a roommate for a night going freely as you please while knowing the house rules!!! #1 being--No Shoes!!!

Lol... but don't worry she provides very comfy slippers to walk around in on her upstairs hardwood floors. The kitchen is inviting and she had cookies baked for us to partake in at our leisure. The rooms were great!!! Beds were super comfy with all but one being a memory foam mattress with great linens!! Her morning breakfast was a true memory to cherish. Simple home cookin in which she is willing to accommodate meat eaters and vegetarians alike!! Nothing was burnt (Hey Connie...*wink*) and tasted great. Her lingonberry jam is absolutely AMAZING!!! We all talked while she cooked and it made me feel like I was at relatives house for a visit.

Oh and did I mention that you you get all of this for a great price!!!
THIS IS A MUST STOP!!!! For anyone going south to Seward or Homer...ah hell for ANYONE going to Alaska period, you should MAKE time to go here.

http://www.glacierviewbnb.com/ seriously go NOW and give her a call if you're heading in this direction!!!

“Fabtastic B&B, welcoming host, great accomodations”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2010

I originally decided not to write a review because I wanted to keep this fantastic gem of a place a secret, so it would not be booked if I ever went to Alaska again, but that's not fair to Connie, who was a generous and most wonderful host. I spent 10 days in Alaska, staying one night here, with my friend and our 4 children, all teenagers. We rented all the rooms. Aside from the beauty of Alaska itself, Glacier View stands out as the best place we stayed in during our entire trip. We felt like we were Connie's extended family, so welcoming and accomodating was she. Comfortable, roomy, clean, good place to rest, amazing breakfast and stories. Connie was very helpful in telling us about the area and recommending places to eat. Too bad this is so far from NJ. If I ever end up in Alaska again, i will definitely return.

“Marvellous place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2009

We only stayed there for one nigth but it was a pity.. The place was very nice. The owner, Connie, was very nice and her breakfast was marvelous. She had breakfast with us and another couple and we had a really good time. I strongly recommend this B&B.

“Aweful experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2008

person found this review helpful

We went there on our first anniversary and the way Connie treated us was terrible.The directions she gave us were not clear as one of the sign boards was broken.So, we had to call her a couple of times to get proper directions.After we got in ,she was very abusive.She was using 4 letter words and said that she was pissed cuz we called her a couple of times for directions.She actually seemed like a psycho.We could not sleep the whole night as my wife was so very disturbed and scared. Also, her bathroom door was broken and she started blaming us for that. She made a terrible breakfast too as the eggs were completely burnt(and obviously she blamed us again for her bad mood!! ).On the whole it was a terrible experience and i think she is the only dark spot in the beautiful land of Alaska.
