Lazy Mountain Hideaway is a large private living space in the lower level of our home. 1904 square feet, with separate entrance and parking. The two bedrooms each have full size beds with new Tuft & Needle memory foam mattresses. There is also a new sleeper sofa in the family room with a queen airbed. There is also a flat screen television with local channels and Roku with several streaming apps.The Jack & Jill bathroom includes a shower and a tub for soaking; hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, and locally made soap are provided. Wifi is available. The guest kitchen includes refrigerator, gas stove and oven, microwave, coffee maker, French coffee press, cookware, dishes, silverware and utensils. We provide coffee and tea, and local organic farm fresh eggs when available. The laundry has front loading washer and dryer with detergent, fabric softener, ironing board and iron.

There is a new propane barbecue grill on the guest patio, where guests can check out the vegetable garden and the amazing mountain views and sunsets.

The home sits on 21 acres on the shoulder of Lazy Mountain, just 7 miles northeast of Palmer. Guests can go for walks, cross country ski, snowshoe on trails without ever having to leave the property. Moose live in the area, and can be seen any time of the year; in the spring they will have calves with them. Neighbors raise bison and elk, and also board horses. Mountain views abound. Guests love our proximity to Palmer, the Alaska State Fair, Hatcher Pass, Matanuska Glacier, the Musk Ox and Reindeer farms, Lazy Mountain hikes, and more.

One of the best things about Lazy Mountain Hideaway is the peace and quiet. Owls can be heard calling to each other at night! And, if you're here at the right time of year, Northern Lights will be a special treat.

For guests who stay three nights or longer, we will provide a large loaf of hot homemade French bread upon request (see photo).

    Very well cleaned and quiet place to stay while in Palmer. Gretchen and Al are very kind and made us feel welcome right from the start.

    We had an amazing stay with Gretchen and Al. They were very hospitable and friendly. We were greeted with a loaf of fresh bread (we ate it ALL!), butter, homemade jam and fresh eggs. The location is central to everything we wanted to do. We drove Hatcher pass, drove out to “see” Denali, played a round of golf and saw 2 glaciers. The home was very roomy and clean. Everywhere We can’t wait to return for another visit. Thanks Gretchen and Al!!

    We absolutely loved this place. Th hosts were very gracious and hospitable and very friendly. They let us pick raspberries from their patch and even gave us fresh vegetables from their garden for supper. Gretchen even managed to find a spot for us to hunt fossil plant material. The place was very spacious with beautiful linens and nice local art decorating the walls. The view looked out to the mountains. They provided recommendations for activities and places to visit and eat. One was to visit Hatcher Pass and pick wild huckleberries. Hatcher Pass was one of our most favorite outings. The scenery was gorgeous! We had a wonderful stay and would return in a heartbeat.

    Gretchen and Al afe the best. Can't wait to come back. Made us feel like family. Enjoyed fresh eggs from their chickens and the bonus was picking raspberries from their beautiful garden.

    I would definitely recommend Lazy Mountain rental and especially Gretchen as a host. The home was extremely clean and the beds were super comfortable. Gretchen provided us with a dozen fresh eggs and plenty of coffee and tea. The location is amazing and peaceful. We had hoped to see a moose which we didn't but Gretchen kept an eye out for us and even enlisted the neighbors. Unfortunately our stay was short (work related)but I will definitely be back with mu family for a longer visit.

    We were VERY satisfied with our stay at the Lazy Mountain. Gretchen and Al were very accommodating. The lower level of their home is very clean and well thought out for guests. Gretchen went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable, recommended the best things to see and do in the area, listed out restaurants and hikes, and just overall kind and hospitable. We enjoyed dinner on the patio one night with great views!!

    Gretchen & Al were wonderful hosts! Very friendly, attentive & accommodating. The view was beautiful & we even spotted a moose in the backyard! Our family of six had a great time & would definitely recommend to others. Thank you for your hospitality!
