Amazing location and beautiful home

We really enjoyed our stay here and wished we could have stayed longer. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything needed to make it feel like home. The house was immaculate, and the beds were comfy. We appreciated the outdoor games! The scenery was so beautiful that I didn't mind losing to my teen in a game of bags.

Perfect Location

This was the perfect cozy house for our family for 5 nights while we explored the area. We enjoyed waking up to the breathtaking views each morning. The house was well-stocked for our home-cooked meals. After a busy day of hiking and exploring, the home was perfect for sipping tea and relaxing. Stephanie was very quick to respond and even reached out to check on us when there was a short local power outage. It was by far one of our favorite places. Would highly recommend staying here!

The perfect house for our Alaska adventure

We absolutely loved this home! We were in Alaska for 2 nights to do an atv tour and horse back riding tour of the Knix glacier/valley. The location of this home was perfect and we loved the small town/ country feel. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We would love to come back and explore more of the Palmer/Butte area.

Perfect Palmer Getaway

This property was perfect for a several day trip to Palmer. The house was charming, cozy and had everything you could want for a home away from home. Bedrooms were comfortable and kitchen was a delight to cook in. Close to many fun attractions, including the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm and hiking trails. And the views of Pioneer Peak and the Butte were fantastic. Looking forward to staying there again on our next visit to Palmer.

We Really Like this Place

This is a beautiful property. The views are amazing and the remodel of the historic home was really well done. We were in Palmer for work, and it was such a treat to come home to this bright, clean and airy house after a long day. It is a nice place to relax and also well located for activities - yet a bit off the beaten path and away from the busynessof town. The hosts were responseful and very helpful and accommodating.
