    A beautiful house with beautiful amenities! We had a wonderful 10 days at the Lazy Mountain View. We had no issues and the caretaker was available if we needed anything. This house will not disappoint! Thank you Ricky and Terri for your exceptional hospitality!

    This home is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect getaway place for our girls trip. It had plenty of room for us to relax . The location is a short distance from Hatchers Pass where we spent a great deal of time hiking.We will put this on our favorites list and stay here for future visits to Palmer. Thank you for sharing your home with us we did not want to leave.

    A great property, a little more upscale than I thought for my kids. But worked great.

    We hosted memorial dinners for our family and it was perfect. Spacious yard for kids to play in. Great for midday walks and the kitchen was plenty big. I LOVE the fact it had filtered water. I do wish they had more stainless steel pan options but we made it work. A fire pit would have been nice. Overall it was clean, spacious and worked great for our family gatherings. Loved the bathrooms! Thankful for AC and fans as it gets hot in the summer. Close to grocery stores but love the country feeling. Neighbors are close but very quiet. This picture was taken at 1am - SO thankful for the blackout blinds in the bedroom.I would stay here again!

    We were in the Palmer area for hockey tournament and rented this house for a couple of the families. Check-in was very easy and the home was very clean. The host was extremely accommodating for our group. I recommend this property to any large group that is looking for large spaces and beautiful views. I will definitely be saving it for future stays in the area.

    Minimalist home that easily accommodated our family of four. The shared space would have been more usable with additional lights and furniture. Woodstove was great for warmth and brightened dark evenings and mornings. Town of Palmer was an easy drive.
