Great stay & location

Our adult family of four really enjoyed our stay at Black Gold Getaway over Labor Day weekend. The house was clean, well-stocked, nicely decorated, and a great size. Super convenient to the harbor area whether you drive, ride a bike, or take a long walk. Beautiful view of mountains, too. Check in/out instructions, general info, and communication with owner easy.

Pleasantly surprised

I wasn’t really sold by the photos but I’m glad I listened to the other reviewers and booked this one. Very clean, comfortable house in a good location. Bedrooms were roomy, with comfy beds, and had much appreciated blackout curtains. Large washer and dryer were a nice bonus.

Great alternative to a hotel

I am in Valdez on a frequent basis for work and have stayed in hotels and other VRBOs. This one had lots of space, massive kitchen, and a really comfortable couch to crash on after a long day of work. There is a large driveway for parking, high speed internet, and a laundry room….all necessities when working/playing in Valdez.

Stay for fishing

Very clean, Nice sleeping arrangements, easy access to the fishing charters and food. The internet was poor as the cable TV would buffer most all the time during shows and the laptop access was spotty.

A great place to spend quality time with Friends

The house was such a wonderful and comforting place to return to at the end of a day exploring Valdez with friends. Having such a well appointed kitchen allowed us to eat breakfasts together and when we were worn out after a long day, we could come back and rest on the cozy couch or play board games at the large dining table.
