The management is amazing. Only 2 things to improve: 1) need Tupperware and glasses (only acrylic ones) - 2) need to get the snow out of the entrance with more frequency. ##### magda n.

The beds were so comfortable, the kitchen and livingroom was very spacious and it was perfect for my family of 7 (plus our dog). It was nice to finally cook for my family instead of ordering in our eating out so we had everything we needed for a home cooked meal. Will definitely stay there again whenever we're in town. ##### Kara K. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda H.

We also told the teams families how awesome of a house it was, and that they should stay there if needed in the future! Thanks for helping to make our weekend an awesome experience! ##### Amanda H.

The unit was well laid out, had all amenities and made for a great home to sleep after a day basking in the mountain wilderness that surrounds it in the Palmer area. Close to Hatcher Pass, Knik Glacier and Chugach. Very near Palmer where you find anything you need. Thank you for a memorable stay! ##### Randy A.

Jul 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place - once you have the address This unit is big and open; nicely decorated with all the amenities. The initial difficulty was that the address provided led to a neighboring cul-de-sac. (The manager was easily accessible but seems surprised that the address we were given was incorrect.) We greatly appreciated being able to part our RV in front of the building. ##### Nancy H.
