About this property

This charming home is conveniently in the middle of the Mat-Su Valley between Palmer and Wasilla. Located on three wooded acres, this furnished 1,000 sq. ft. home features two bedrooms and one bathroom. We love hosting guests on local getaways, business, vacation, family visits or anything else that brings you to the stunning beauty surrounding Palmer, Alaska!

This is a lower unit in an owner-occupied duplex. (Our family lives in the upper unit; we do our best to be quiet and respectful, but please be aware that there is foot traffic, etc.) Big windows allow lots of natural light and views of the beautiful wooded area.
Make yourself at home in our cozy living area and fully-equipped kitchen. One bedroom includes a generous desk space for your work or play!
A washer and dryer are conveniently located inside the home. Wifi and Netflix are available!

You are welcome to use the fire pit near our home for a barbecue or relaxing evening around the fire.
We are thrilled to be able to offer a hot tub on the property for your use! It is steps away from the home, shared with guests in one tiny house vacation rental. (For reservations from June 1-Sept 15, the hot tub will have shared access with guests in three tiny houses.)

Place was cute & clean & we slept well. Nice big TV..

Did not care for all the noise the upstairs people made all night till 10:30pm and the next day starting at 8am. Was not a quiet get away at all. TV did not work the next day. Tea kettle had a cut inside on the bottom of kettle. Did not use. The 2 Lights are too bright in kitchen. Needs a dimmer switch for sure.. Not a place we'd go rent again. We are in our 60's looking for a quiet 2 night get away. Place was cute &.clean, nice big tv.

getaway B4 school

Was a very pleasant experience. We found all the necessary equipment in the kitchen. The beds were comfy, however, we would have enjoyed some softer pillows, but we made do with what was there. The grounds were well kept. Even though it rained we used the hot tub and it was very easy to operate. If an opportunity to getaway again arises- we would consider this place. Thanks.

About the host

Hosted by Laura

We're Texas natives, but now call Alaska home. We love the incredible opportunities this state offers as "the last frontier," and are privileged to be raising our family here. We continually marvel at the beautiful places we can enjoy within a couple hours' drive.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property over seven years ago--the view from our ridge, the wooded area, the creek at the bottom of the hill and the fantastic location between Palmer and Wasilla. We remodeled both duplex units and are thrilled with how they turned out; we now call the upper level home and are excited to share the beautiful lower unit as a furnished vacation rental.
