A Cross Country Meadows, established in 1995, caters to those who seek quiet, peaceful accommodations in a private, country atmosphere. The home is beautifully decorated to ensure guests have a warm and relaxing stay, and features antiques, cross-stitched pictures, handmade quilts and pillows, Alaskan artifacts, Iditarod prints, and antiques. Other amenities include plush carpets, blackout blinds and curtains, quality lamps with overhead fans, and swivel easy chairs and tables. Each room has a nautical theme, giving a nod to the beauty of the nearby Prince William Sound, and each bedroom has cathedral ceilings and shares a private loft and sitting room. Both the top floor guest rooms have panoramic views of the surrounding meadows, Alyeska ski slopes, and awesome, snow-capped glaciers.
Breakfast is served on lace or linen tablecloths with matching placements and napkins.
If you have special dietary needs, your hosts are willing to provide assistance. Additionally, there is a small refrigerator located in the loft area stocked with soda and fruit juice, available for a small charge. Coffee, tea, and hot chocolate are also available anytime for guests. The relaxed resort community of Girdwood offers year-round serenity and action. During the summer, take on such challenges as whale watching, wind surfing, paragliding, gold panning, hiking, biking, rafting, canoeing, and fishing.
