The best property we stayed in Alaska! The house exceeded our expectations. The standard of the interior finishes and furniture are very high compared to usual rentals and all amenities were included. Highly recommended for a stay!

Wow! We have visited many VRBOs and this is by far the most beautiful, well appointed home with amazing views. The interior design, furnishings and decorations should be featured in a magazine. I could live in their home full time!
We decided on a stop in Palmer, AK to do a full day ATV tour to the Knik Glacier. After seeing this home listed, we decided on a 3 night stay… wish it was longer.
Our stay in this home was the highlight of our trip to Alaska.

The house was absolutely perfect! Snow covered mountains from every window. Bathroom and kitchen were very nicely appointed. Comfortable beds. Everything you need. Hosts were spectacular, offering some wonderful suggestions for sightseeing. We were even picked up by a helicopter for a glacier walk right from the house. Amazing!! Can't recommend enough.

This place was absolutely beautiful! Coffee and filtered water machine were awesome! The view was my favorite but the heated towel rack came in a close second 😊 We missed the first night do to a flight cancelation, I wish we could have worked on getting an extra day or part of the money for that day back but I understand from both ways. Overall she was a great host and it was so clean and peaceful! Would highly recommend

We chose this property to serve as the base for our elopement and it was absolutely perfect. The home was clean and well-appointed and served as a gorgeous backdrop for photos both before and after the ceremony. We were even able to have a helicopter pick us up and drop us off at the property. Tonja, the owner, was very responsive and easy to work with throughout. Highly recommend and would absolutely book this property again!

My wife and I travel quite a bit and “Eagles Perch” is definitely in the top three of the best places we’ve ever stayed…..ANYWHERE!! The owners (Tonja and her husband) are amazing and will do anything they can do to make your stay a very memorable experience. Put this place on your bucket list.
