Wonderful cozy cabin

This cabin was the perfect place to base our weekend adventure out of. It was nice and cozy and just what we needed to recharge after a day of adventuring out in the area.

Quiet and secluded cabin

This place was wonderful! It was quiet, but still close to everything. It was so well thought out, and we found everything we needed to cook and do laundry. We also loved the fresh eggs!

Perfect cabin in Palmer

The cabin was the perfect place to stay for the last two nights of a month long vacation in Alaska. It was clean, the shower hot, the bed comfortable and on last morning Mama Moose and yearling spent 45 minutes browsing around the cabin. We will definitely stay there the next time we are in Palmer.

Absolutely Amazing Little Cabin

It was just the cutest cabin. From the home made cookies to the fresh eggs, this cabin is someplace for a couple to get away from the kids and celebrate themselves.

As described. Very private, well stocked. Perfect for a couple or with a child or another traveling companion. The hot tub was a nice touch after a long day at the fair and standing for a 3 hour concert. If we’d been for a getaway and not for the fair, the grill and outdoor fire pit would have been welcome as well.

This is a great place to call home for a brief getaway. The kitchen is well stocked. A hot tub just outside. Comfortable accommodations. Communication with the host was quick and pleasant. Well done Justin and Missy!

The place was clean, nice and as advertised. The only issue we had was that the sofa bed was broken. They had a nice air mattress to replace it, but I didn't know that, so I had to contact the property manager to find out. I mentioned this, so that if you stay there you won't have to figure this out. The mattress is in the bedroom closet.
