We attended at Wedding near Palmer so this was a perfect place to stay since we had two kids. Great location. The place was so nice and super clean. And so quiet….except when my grandkids were awake…lol. But we loved it. Thank you.

Awesome Amenities! Great Hosts!
We had a little hiccup with our reservation and Stephanie quickly handled all of the details and went above and beyond. The house is amazing!! Loved having a master bath and laundry. Plus a dishwasher!! This was by far our most luxurious stay on our trip and everyone loved it. I’m a city girl so Alaska is definitely more rustic than I’m used to and this home had all of the creature comforts! Highly recommend!! We only stayed one night but definitely wished it was more.

Great Place to Stay
This is very clean and well maintained property. It is centrally located to attractions in Palmer, Wasilla, Hatcher Pass, and the Mat-Su Valley. It is an easy drive to Anchorage and Willow where we saw the Iditarod, as well as Talkeetna. We would gladly stay here again.

Nice duplex.
The duplex was well-situated for our purposes. It was clean and modern. The only issue was a set of bunk beds that were very much meant for children rather than any adult. The sofa, however, provided a comfortable night's sleep.

Spacious and comfortable home
I would highly recommend this home for families. It had plenty of room for our family and had everything we needed. We stayed here while attending a hockey tournament and it was a great location for getting to the rinks in Wasilla and Palmer in less than 15 minutes. We’d definitively stay here again.

We came to the MATSU for a hockey tournament ~ the home was super clean and nice. All the amenities were great! It allowed us to get to our games timely and allowed us to cook and eat as a group~ ♥️.
