Aw Kim.. .it was so nice to share our view and the sheep and serenity here, with you! I wish it hadn't been such a bizarre week of fires in AK, pushing smoke to our valley AND constant firemen at my door needing a place to land for just a few hours. ALL of that kept me from getting to chat with your group a bit more as I'd have so enjoyed that! Thank you thank you for choosing to stay in our cabin and if you are ever up again, please come back!

Best place in Palmer, Alaska

Colette is the perfect hostess! Her cabin is warm and cozy and the view is fabulous! It is the perfect spot to just breathe and relax. It is an easy drive into town to shop and for restaurants and the sheep are an added bonus! They love to be fed and petted and will greet you every time! I would highly recommend her place!

Amazing Cabin - FIVE STAR

This cabin was awesome and the views overlooking the mountains were incredible. The owners were very easy to work with and extraordinarily accommodating. The town of Palmer was quaint and easily accessible to Anchorage as well as multiple hiking trails. The sheep roaming in the adjacent lot were an added bonus for our group. The property is also almost certainly the best-stocked of any in which we've stayed during our considerable travels. We cannot recommend this property highly enough. Dave K July 2021

Vacation

We stayed at the cabin for 2 nights and loved it. Lots of room and very comfortable. Only a little disappointed that the fireplace was electric and not a "real" fireplace. Kitchen was quite stocked and coffee bar was amazing! Only two small complaints--with 5 of us, we ran out of hot water if we all tried to shower so some showered of a morning and the others at night; and their were towels in the washer when we arrived that were soured. Overall it was a GREAT cabin and I would highly recommend it to anyone!!

Super relaxing and beautiful home

First, I cannot say enough about how welcoming Collette is. Not only did she make check-in easy, but she went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. Great communications well before arrival on the check in process, directions, local information, restaurants, etc. The home itself is in an absolutely beautiful setting. You could sit on the front porch or the swing in the front yard and watch the beautiful mountains all day long. Very comfy beds and all the amenities you will need. Furniture is all very comfortable and in good shape. Convenient location to a great many beautiful hikes and activities in the area. I highly recommend this wonderful home for your next vacation. The hardest part was leaving.

Dream Alaskan Cabin

What an amazing Alaskan getaway! We had the joy of staying at the cabin while visiting family in Palmer for Thanksgiving. The cabin was warm and inviting- right out of a Hallmark movie! Collette had everything ready for our stay and we couldn’t have been more impressed. We can’t wait to come back to the cabin for a summer trip.

About the host

Hosted by Collette Hand

Host profile image
Our family chose this property and knew we'd have a great view as we began clearing the trees with chains and trucks. Looking at that gorgeous mountain, Pioneer Peak everyday is captivating. I've climbed it 3 times now! My husband developed this neighborhood of 160 acres and we live on 15 of it. It is peaceful and beautiful. We are not far from town, but feel remote with a property covered in trees and through which moose meander on a regular basis. Joe and I enjoy motorcycling, hiking

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for a very nice, peaceful, safe, clean, comfortable place for your family or small group, this luxury log cabin is perfect for you to home base as you day trip around Alaska. It is private and convenient! You will have view you wont tire of and every accommodation at your disposal. This is a central location for heading to Talkeetna or down to Seward for the day. You are only one hr from the mighty Matanuska Glacier and beauty in every direction. Beds are new, memory foam queen and kings. Wifi throughout for your convenience.

What makes this property unique

Gorgeous mountain view. Located on the edge of our pasture where the Shetland Sheep we raise will come to the fence to say hello. We are very near the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm, Matanuska Glacier, Alaska State Fair grounds and Hatcher's Pass Independence Gold Mine. 2.5 miles from great restaurant choices in Palmer.
