While our location is in the heart of Palmer, we highly recommend a rental car to fully experience the majestic landscapes of the Mat-Su Valley and beyond.

Pro-Tip: Take the Scenic Route
For a true taste of `Old Alaska,` we recommend skipping the main freeway and taking the Old Glenn Highway. This delightful 19-mile country road meanders through the heart of the original Matanuska Colony Farmlands and offers a quieter, more scenic alternative for your journey.

This property is the top unit of a duplex. The lower unit is occupied by full-time tenants. They’re quiet and respectful, and we ask that guests extend the same courtesy during their stay.
