About this property
Rustic and cozy cabin with all new amenities near beautiful Hatcher’s Pass
This memorable cabin is the perfect home base for your trip to Hatcher’s Pass or charming downtown Palmer. Nestled in a tranquil setting, this charming property offers a cozy retreat for guests. The bedroom features a twin and a twin XL, with new mattresses ensuring a restful night’s sleep.. If you are a coffee connoisseur, we have a traditional drip, a pour over set up or French press to choose from with electric kettle to heat your water in minutes. We supply the usual kitchen appliances ( microwave, toaster, air fryer and new stove and oven). The bathroom boasts a refreshing shower and a hair dryer for your convenience. Additionally, there is an inviting living room with a futon and overstuffed lazy boy recliner, and kitchen table for 3. The porch boasts 2 chairs where you can drink your coffee among the birch and cottonwood trees. Just minutes from the Little Susitna river, Government Peak hiking and biking trails and the entrance to majestic Hatcher’s pass, it is your perfect basecamp for you Alaskan adventure. Wi fi is available for streaming of your devices but no TV or dishwasher for this rustic cabin. The toilet is an environmentally friendly composting toilet that is odor free and captures (just a taste) of what it is like to be a homesteader in the bush. So kick back, relax, and enjoy the beauty of our corner of the Matanuska Valley. Enjoy a day hiking, fishing or biking and then drive 10 minutes into downtown Palmer and sample the number of breweries, kombucha bar, or craft food that Palmer has has to offer. Sleeps 3 adults comfortably— a 4th would only include 2 adults with the possibility of 2 children on the futon.
