Entrance is around back for guests, could use a sign since it feels a bit intrusive driving in the back the first time. Space was clean & as advertised- host was very helpful when we needed to get items delivered, too!

Beautiful home!

We enjoyed the spaciousness of this beautiful home. We had no problem finding the house and access was easy. We were visiting family in the Palmer area. The house was within a 10 minute drive to my sister.and very close to Palmer.

Great stay

Very happy with unit, location, and amenities. This was a wonderful experience. The kitchen had lots of appliances, cutlery, pots, and pans to cook with, hammock, ping pong table, kayaks, exercise room, two baths, and plenty of couches and sitting areas. We were very comfortable. It was close to stores and activities. The view was great as well. Would absolutely stay here again.

Family Vacation

This property was located in a quiet and secluded area close to town. Easily accessible and very clean. It had all of the amenities we needed including a crock pot. The only dissapointing aspect of the property was that we couldn't get to the pond to go kayaking. The owner told us it was a bit marshy, so we were expecting that, but we thought there would be some sort of dock or cleared walkway to the pond, which there wasn't. Besides that, everything is just like it's listed and we would recommend this location to others.

Lots of Potential

Lodging area was beautiful albeit missing some critical items. We cooked breakfast one day and the pans were greasy and dirty. There was no scrub brush or sponge to clean items. The family area was great. In previous photos, there appeared to be a bunk bed and another bed in the 2d bedroom. This is now just the bunk bed bottom and top broken into two separate pieces. The twin still has the safety rails attached to it, despite being on the ground. Would also recommend an upgrade on the sheets and towels. While they do the job, they are certainly worn a bit. Think these simple fixes will make this an ideal place.
