About this property

Rustic and cozy cabin with all new amenities near beautiful Hatcher’s Pass

This memorable cabin is the perfect home base for your trip to Hatcher’s Pass or charming downtown Palmer. Nestled in a tranquil setting, this charming property offers a cozy retreat for guests. The bedroom features a twin and a twin XL, with new mattresses ensuring a restful night’s sleep.. If you are a coffee connoisseur, we have a traditional drip, a pour over set up or French press to choose from with electric kettle to heat your water in minutes. We supply the usual kitchen appliances ( microwave, toaster, air fryer and new stove and oven). The bathroom boasts a refreshing shower and a hair dryer for your convenience. Additionally, there is an inviting living room with a futon and overstuffed lazy boy recliner, and kitchen table for 3. The porch boasts 2 chairs where you can drink your coffee among the birch and cottonwood trees. Just minutes from the Little Susitna river, Government Peak hiking and biking trails and the entrance to majestic Hatcher’s pass, it is your perfect basecamp for you Alaskan adventure. Wi fi is available for streaming of your devices but no TV or dishwasher for this rustic cabin. The toilet is an environmentally friendly composting toilet that is odor free and captures (just a taste) of what it is like to be a homesteader in the bush. So kick back, relax, and enjoy the beauty of our corner of the Matanuska Valley. Enjoy a day hiking, fishing or biking and then drive 10 minutes into downtown Palmer and sample the number of breweries, kombucha bar, or craft food that Palmer has has to offer. Sleeps 3 adults comfortably— a 4th would only include 2 adults with the possibility of 2 children on the futon.

I stayed in this cozy cabin for 2.5 weeks while in town for a work project and had the best experience. The hosts were extremely friendly and had great suggestions for exploring the area. The cabin was clean and provided the perfect accommodations for a homie stay away from home.

Such a perfect place for a getaway. We loved the location of the cabin, out of the way but close to everything. The host is very friendly and was wonderful throughout our stay! My family and I absolutely loved our weekend.

Check-in is easy. Cabin is very clean and cozy. Beds are comfortable. Close to the supermarket and hiking trails. The cabin is a little close to the road so you'll hear the traffic when you sit on the front porch but that's the only downside.

Relaxed three nighter

The good first. Easy access yet nicely nestled in the woods, so the feeling of solace and privacy. The cabin itself just as listed but once inside much smaller but does have all the necessities you may need. It is a rustic cabin as noted which fits very well in the woods, but too rustic in parts inside; rough floor in the upper level and a little steep going up as you hold onto the railings.. not sure if is by design, but the owner should look into that. Still, I do recommend it and had a very nice time.
