Wonderful Area
It was wonderful place to stay, perfect little area to be off the main highway and a short drive to everything else. Kids loved the house, and the views. Would love to come back again!

Great Stay
This was one of, if not the best rental home we have stayed. Every detail was thought of in this home…plus a great view! Lot of nice additions and features everywhere, like axe throwing in the garage. We took my mom and our 3 boys on the trip, and this house was perfect. We would stay here again!

Perfect location and lovely home
the accommodations were perfect. the house is very lovely and had all of the amenities. We used the hot tub, grill and loved the rocking chairs! The host is very responsive and helpful. Centrally located in Palmer and easy access to Anchorage, Talkeatna, and a lot of things to do around Palmer. We would definitely recommend the house and would love to come back.
