Gorgeous cottage in heavenly location

We ❤️ our stay at this GORGEOUS cottage straight from a Disney fairytale! The cottage was impeccably kept. It was cleaner than my own home (and I'm bit of a neat freak). The owners though of EVERYTHING! Highly recommended!!

Home away from home

This cottage met all my expectations plus more. It was the most comfortable stay nestled in the woods away from people and noise. I looked forward to a peaceful sleep every night and a serene wake up every morning. The hosts were very friendly and attentive.

Quiet stay in the woods

Very clean and I could tell the owners put a lot of thought and care into everything. The only criticism I would give is the hot water in the shower doesn’t last very long, but they do warn of this on the info sheet in the cabin. Would stay here again!

Reliably clean stay in beautiful surroundings

Hosts are great with communication, always clean and has fresh bedding, well maintained property, secluded yet just a few minutes in to downtown Palmer. Great change of pace from staying at hotels when I'm on a work trip. Just wish I could manage to get myself there earlier instead of getting in as late as I tend to.

Awesome place to Stay!!!

We absolutely loved this place! It was so clean and comfortable! The owners, who are very hospitable and available right on the property are great people! This cabin appears to have a lot of thought and special attention to detail with warm and cozy towels, sheets and blankets. The porch was also a great and relaxing place to drink coffee in the morning. We really recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

Great stay for 1st time in Alaska

Vanessa and Rob were excellent hosts. The location was great, right in the middle of everything for sightseeing. The cabin was cute, cozy and comfortable. It had everything we needed. I loved the reviews and pics when I first started looking, I booked my first 3 nights and our last 3 nights there in our 10 night stay. I would recommend this location to anyone
