About this property
Upper Mesa Villa #11, Glacier Suites - Upper Mesa Villa #4
The Villas of Upper Mesa are Glacier Suites' second location of twelve nearly-new and fully-appointed standalone private residences. Located off of a low-traffic side street just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Palmer, each unit at Upper Mesa is constructed from ICF (insulated concrete forms) for the ultimate in comfort and quiet. The fully-furnished standalone villas each have 3-bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, radiant heated floors, a fully-stocked kitchen, storage room, ensuite laundry, charming living areas and many more upgraded amenities designed to accommodate up to 8 guests. Netflix and chill at your home away from home on our Roku-enabled TV, or keep up with business with included wifi. With quick access to everything the Mat-Su Valley offers, this villa provides a comfortable, clean and convenient private space for your Alaskan getaway.
Palmer is just 45-60 minutes northeast of Anchorage, and is a an ideal basecamp for all kinds of attractions throughout south central Alaska. While adventure & activities (like Hatcher Pass, the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm, Glacier Tours, and more!) are practically right in our backyard, we are also a great go-between for stays ranging north to Talkeetna & Denali National Park, northeast to the Matanuska Glacier & out to the Al-Can Highway, and, of course, south to the fishing & outdoor mecca that is Alaska's Kenai Peninsula.
Guest accommodations at this residence include:
- 1 primary queen bedroom with ensuite full bathroom
- 1 bedroom with queen size bed
- 1 bedroom with two twin beds
- 2 additional cots stored in the twin guest room closet
*Pets welcome. Contact your host for additional information.
