Family-Friendly Palmer Retreat - Near Hatcher Pass, Hot Tub & Sauna
Year-Round Palmer Alaska Retreat | Adventure in Every Season
Welcome to your perfect Alaska basecamp in Palmer—ideal for both summer adventures and winter getaways. This spacious 4-bedroom home offers comfort, privacy, and easy access to the Mat-Su Valley’s best outdoor recreation, making it a great fit for families, groups, and extended stays.
Summer guests will love being minutes from Hatcher Pass, Government Peak Recreation Area, and Downtown Palmer, with endless opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing, wildlife viewing, festivals, and scenic drives under Alaska’s long daylight hours. After a full day outside, relax in the private backyard spa, featuring a Hot Springs hot tub and custom cedar electric sauna.
Winter visitors enjoy quick access to Skeetawk Ski Area and Government Peak Recreation Area for downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, sledding, and snowshoeing. There’s nothing better than soaking in the hot tub or warming up in the sauna after a day on the slopes, then settling in by the cozy fireplace for the evening.
Inside, the home is designed for gathering and comfort. The fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances and generous counter space, perfect for home-cooked meals. A large dining table makes it easy to eat together, play games, or plan the next day’s adventure. Two separate living areas give everyone room to relax, whether you’re watching a movie or enjoying a quiet moment with a book.
All four bedrooms feature comfortable bedding and storage for longer stays. The primary suite includes an extra-large soaking tub, adding another layer of relaxation no matter the season.
Whether you’re planning a summer hiking trip, a family Alaska vacation, a winter ski getaway, or a peaceful off-season retreat, this Palmer home offers the space, amenities, and location to enjoy Alaska year-round.
