Everything exceeded our expectations. So private yet close to downtown Seward for easy access to excursions and quaint town. Loved the creek behind house and making s’mores by the fire.

This beautiful home was perfectly located for us to enjoy the state fair, shopping in palmer, biking at government peak recreation area, and hiking in hatcher's pass.The home was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The 3 year old in our group (and a couple of the 30 and 40 year olds) loved the game room. We had a great time, could not recommend more

We had 7 adults and 6 kids that stayed there and sleeping went great, the unique (to us) blinds helped get the rooms dark for the kids and the game room was also a hit with them.

We enjoyed staying on property for 1 night as we passed through Palmer. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen and linens accommodated our large party. We loved the large seating areas and amenities. Our stay was in summer and the fans in all rooms were an added bonus.

Beautiful and comfortable house with lots of room. We were. group of 6 and enjoyed relaxing after going to Hatcher’s Pass and Musk Ox Farm. The property is very quiet and peaceful and close enough to town for groceries restaurants.

House was rustic, clean and had everything needed. Hot tub was clean and well maintained. Game room had tons of entertainment. Kitchen was clean and stocked with plenty of dishes and spices for cooking. Bedrooms were spacious and inviting. There was a step near the door that was unexpected and a bit of a trip hazard.

We were a multigenerational family of 9 traveling in Alaska. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We stayed 2 nights and everyone was comfortable. Jeremiah was easy to contact and had great communication. Only suggestion would be to have a couple fans to use in the rooms. Otherwise it was just what we needed.

This house was perfect for our family over Christmas! They had a Christmas tree all lit up for us when we arrived! The rooms were cozy - the game room was a huge hit - the hot tub was huge and so nice to sit in and look at the stars! This house had everything we needed for a very special family Christmas and the host was responsive and communicated well! We would definitely love to stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The property manager was there to greet us as she was finishing up the final details for our stay. The location was beautiful with plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked and we had a great time during our stay.

Great communication with Jeremiah. The house itself is really fun. We had two families with kids aged 13 to 20, and everyone found something enjoyable to do in the game room. We had some intense ping-pong and pool tournaments, and a few people really got into the video games. The adults appreciated the hot tub as well.

We enjoyed this property! It is close to all of our planned activities in Hatcher Pass. The house is spacious and has a great gameroom and a hot tub. We were so busy we didn't have a chance to try out the hot tub, but we'll stay and extra day here next time. The property is very private and comfortable. We slept well after a very full day outdoors each day.

Nice spot in a nice town

The house was great for the number of people we had. The deck was nice to hang out on and the kitchen was great for cooking meals. The property and rooms were clean and comfortable. Only issue we had was on with the Vrbo side of things and once I have communication with Jeremiah, everything went smooth and he was very helpful.

Host was very good at communication. The house was a logistical dream for our athletes who competed at GPRA over three days. Some comments I overheard from the athletes included, “The bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. The game room is amazing and we are sad to leave it.. The property had ample parking with well plowed driveways. The house is spacious and fit eight student athletes and two adult chaperones. The hot tub was used, and the kitchen was well used. Everything was great for a large group. Nicely done!
The location made it easy for coaches to drop in for team meetings

One of our amazing parents who provided dinner prep!
