A fun and unique stay with fabulous breakfast options. Our NYO team really enjoyed tea time in the parlor. I’ve never seen so many teens sipping tea and talking about Alaskan homesteaders. Everything was so clean, organized and interesting. I liked how all the time traveler memorabilia caused so many discussions amongst our group. Thanks for a memorable weekend and experience in Palmer!
This place is unreal. I've never seen anyone put so much time, pride and personal touch on a B and B. Carol was more along the lines of 6 stars. excellent! thank you Carol.
For anyone wanting to visit the Palmer, AK area, this property is in an excellent location. Within walking distance to downtown Palmer and a short drive to the Glenn highway and the Palmer/Wasilla highway.
Fun space with all the Time Travel memorabilia! I loves it, amd my daughter had a blast! It was also comfortable, clean, and we enjoyed the included breakfast options. We'd definitely stay again!
Very much enjoyed our stay here. The owner has put a LOT of work in making this a unique and exciting place to stay. The movies themes base is very cool. As well, the property is very neat and well kept. The attention to detail and variety for breakfast is also outstanding. All in a quiet neighborhood, to boot. Wish we could have stayed for longer.
We loved staying here. This was a fun experience with an excellent theme and an INCREDIBLE breakfast. The host was very understanding when we added another guest at the last moment. We definitely recommend anyone to stay here.
Amazing space with fun things to check out in every nook and cranny. Such a joy to stay and explore. We will definitely come and stay again. You can absolutely see the care and love that Carol shares with every guest who stays. Brilliantly done.
Time travelers is an adorable place to stay. Clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen in a great location. Be prepared to do a lot of reading and enjoy the movies and displays.
Carol’s magical B&B was spotless and cozy. The fridge was stocked with a variety of homemade snacks. Children and adults alike would enjoy exploring rooms of different themes on time travel from films and TV series. My young kid particularly loved the yard and her bed in the meticulously cleaned closet. We stayed there for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time.
The Time Traveler's B&B was hands down the most fun and interesting stay we've had to date. We especially appreciated the Doctor Who decor as we're huge fans of the series.Our host graciously prepared coffee for us each morning as well as a wonderful variety of breakfast foods. Everything was comfy, clean and totally amazing. Thanks for such a great stay!
Property was very clean! View was amazing! Beds were comfortable, plenty of extra blankets and pillows. Windows opened! Bathrooms were lovely and well stocked. Coffee was good. The little kitchen was cute, lots of extras. Some of the food was great some was meh. Appreciated the choices and ability to eat on our own schedule. Loved the theme and would stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay. Everything was quirky, creative, clean, and cozy. It was the sort of experience we look for. Thank you for a lovely birthday weekend.
