Waterfront holiday rentals in Big Lake

Amazing place to stay! Right in the middle of downtown but it doesn’t feel that way. Peaceful and unobstructed view of the water. Quiet neighborhood as well. Great option!

This was such a peaceful place to stay with amazing views. The bed was comfortable and the place was very clean!

Our stay was wonderful! This place has so much room. We had 2 grandchildren (age 5 & 10) with us and they loved it also. Only issue we had was a complaint from people whom lived below. We respected the quiet hours from 10-10 everyday. We did not know 1 of them worked 2nd shift, and got woke up by the kids couple mornings? They were playing tag out on deck one time. We told them we were sorry and would try to respect their wishes. From then on we worried about being quiet. This place is very close to grocery stores, gas, Walmart, Fred Meyer’s, and restaurants. Wonderful place to stay and very convenient. There is a park 2 lots down which we went to and kids played and fed ducks. There is also a Church (Creekside Church) about 5 miles away, very nice Church and made us feel welcomed. The kids loved the Children’s Church also. This place had everything we needed. The view was spectacular.

Amazing airbnb with amazing hosts. Definitely recommended and will try and stay again if available.

We had a great stay here. We really enjoyed how close it was to the coastal trail and multiple amazing restaurants downtown. Only thing to note, the bedrooms don’t have blackout curtains, which was okay for us but might bother others with the long Alaskan summer days. We will definitely be staying at Diane’s place if we come back to Anchorage!

We stayed at Gary's place for a week during a conference I attended in Anchorage. The location is great - close enough to walk into central areas but far enough to get peace and quiet for the city. The appartement is great and comfortable, and the views to the ocean and mountains are incredible! We strongly recommend you to stay at Gary's!

The apartment was great for me and friends to celebrate a birthday. Kurt has everything you need and it’s so beautifully on the lake. Love this property😍

We had a wonderful stay! The host showed such warm hospitality and made us feel truly welcome. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The property is beautifully located right next to the Knik River — peaceful, scenic, and refreshing. One of the highlights of our visit was being invited to explore a special waterfall trail right behind the house — a hidden gem we wouldn’t have found otherwise. In front of the house, we also enjoyed a relaxing walk along the river. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, nature-filled getaway with a gracious host!

This house was stunning— inside and out. What a great view for Alaska! The space had a modern aesthetic—clean lines, comfortable furniture, and thoughtful touches throughout. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed (plus a few extras). Check-in was smooth, and the host was friendly and responsive. If you're looking for a place with an incredible view, clean and modern vibes, and a peaceful atmosphere, this is it. I’d absolutely stay here again.

Daniel’s place had an amazing lakeside view and the house was fully stocked with anything you needed. Even had the opportunity to use the kayaks with life jackets from the garage. Would most definitely stay again. Friend left her camera behind after check out and he was very quick to respond and help us with recovering it. Great stay!

There aren’t adequate words to say for Troy’s place! It is amazingly beautiful and relaxing. He has done an excellent job of decorating and proving necessities for a stay. The beds were very comfortable. Be easy with the heat… it feels amazing on my feet (floor heated) but it will warm up very well… cools off slowly. I just wished I had planned on staying longer. Definitely #1 on our list.

Allison's place is amazing! Gorgeous setting with canoe, kayak and fishing that kept our kids.. ages 8 & 11... entertained all weekend while the adults relaxed on the dock in the sunshine! The inside of the house was pretty and well maintained!There is only one bathroom. But for the 5 of us, we hot along fine. Allison was very responsive to questions. A great host with a great place to make memories. Thanks, Allison!

Great spot! Best location you could ask for in downtown Anchorage. Next to the trail, a playground, and just up the hill to multiple good spots to eat. Very quiet and serene. Easy check in. Clean. Nice beds and pillows. Highly recommend!

All I can say about this BnB is WOW! The view was stunning, the host was the absolute sweetest and we had a beautiful time! We had 12 people and it accommodated us all with room to spare! We used the space as a bachelor and bachelorette party and it was the most beautiful place that I think we could have chose! It was secluded but not too far away from stores and other amenities! 10 out of 10 would recommend everyone to stay here for their visit to willow!

My family and I loved this lake house. The home was incredibly clean and organized. The beds were super comfy and the toiletry amenities were high quality. We spent the morning on the lake in the paddle boats and saw lots of trout! Laurie was super friendly and gave great instructions for check in. Highly recommend this place.

Perfect for a family of 6. The views, people, restaurants all friends and great!! Definitely going to recommend to friends and family as a go to cabin on big lake for sure. Christie
