The cottage is well built, tastefully designed with beautiful furniture/decor and high quality linens. It's close to town and local attractions (Indepence Mine, Hatcher Pass and musk ox farm). The property is private and peaceful - the mountain scenery in Palmer is spectacular. Owners are super responsive and helpful. It is truly one of best vacation rental experiences we've had.
Great little place. Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Conveniently located while still providing that private Alaskan cabin feeling. 10/10 would recommend.
We really enjoyed staying in this spotlessly clean, nicely decorated, fully stocked cottage. The hosts paid attention to the little details like providing coffee and tea, plenty of extra towels, hand soap, etc. We especially appreciated having the full sized washer and dryer with detergent and dryer sheets available for us to use. Checkin was easy and the hosts made sure that we had everything we needed. We were only there two nights but wish we could have stayed longer.
I was only in town for a couple of days to attend a wedding, but this cottage was fantastic!! It was very comfortable, clean, and private. I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Palmer!
This little piece of Palmer is just heaven on Earth!! Bungalow was very nice and so clean!!The view from our window was literally picture perfect. A lovely serene place to come “home” to after long days of hiking and exploring. Yvonne was a gracious host and checked on us many times. We ended up here due to a booking issue with another VRBO owner and Yvonne came to our rescue by offering us a stay at her beautiful property. I would highly recommend staying here and would love to return one day if we’re lucky enough to visit Alaska again.
Our stay here was great. Hosts were very responsive and helpful and the cabin was easy to find and beautiful. Place contained everything we needed for a simple retreat and was close to other Alaskan activities.
Wonderful time in this fairytale cottage! Sitting by the fire, watching it snow and the birds enjoying the snowfall! Vanessa and Rob are very accepting and helpful! It was a great time!
This property is just the right size in just the right location. The owners we great and flexible. The price was amazing and the local attractions were all with a short distance.
