Photos and Description of the Palmer vacation house rental
House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-8)

Rustic and real, Lone Spruce Lake Lodge is nestled between the Chugach and Talkeetna mountain ranges overlooking beautiful, Thirty Mile Lake. Your visitors include a variety of ducks, trumpeter swans, bald eagles, hawks, falcons and other wildlife to this lovely and verdant panorama of tranquility. As you enjoy your morning coffee, you may see a moose cow with her spring calf (or calves) munching on marsh grass. Beckoning from beyond the lake across the tops of black spruce, birch and poplars, stunning Castle Mountain dares you enjoy it's immensity. Mountain sheep can occasionally be seen traversing the craggy terrain on Castle in summer. Whether enjoying the view from the breakfast table, living area, or 40 foot cedar deck; it's an awe inspiring affirmation of the majesty in unspoiled beauty. The dawning of each morning never fails to provide something wonderful from Mother Nature!

Your vacation retreat comes equipped with creature-comfort amenities to ensure a restful and memorable stay. Relax and unwind in the living area's comfy couches after a strenuous day. Better yet, treat tired muscles to the therapeutic pulsations of the master suite's jet tub. After dining and toasting another beautiful Alaskan sunset, retire to peaceful dreams snuggled between cloud-soft linens.

Illuminated by an abundance of natural light, it's no wonder your vacation kitchen is the hub of each day's activity planning. Fully equipped, and hosting plenty of counter and island space make meal planning a snap!

The main floor of your vacation retreat consists of an artic entry, mudroom and laundry, full bath, bedroom, kitchen and walk-in pantry, dining area and living room. A staircase leads to the spacious, master suite and airy bathroom. All windows provide mountain view access with the exception of the lodge front, in which case panoramic mountain and lake views may be enjoyed...spectacular!

Amble on down to the lake using the switchback path to access the rowboats and canoe. On your way, make sure to grab paddles, fishing poles and life vests. Cast a line, soak in the sunshine, or just languidly drift along with blue skies, mountain tops and timberlines. If the trout are biting, the deck-side, gas barbecue provides a fuss-free way to serve up delicious fare.

Unique to the Alaska Experience, 'flavor' your vacation from a choice of the following Matanuska-Susitna Valley adventures; reindeer, musk ox and sled dog farms visits, bush pilot and railroad museum visits, charter fishing trips, white water rafting, Matanuska Glacier trips, Hatcher Pass nature and hiking trips, and more! As on-site owners, we can help provide you with assistance in booking tours.

Come to Alaska for a vacation that is as exhilarating as it is memorable. Come and experience the beauty of mountains, glaciers and high timber. Come and wrap yourself in the hospitality of Lone Spruce Lake Lodge. Welcome to your home away from home!

Beautiful Lake View House!

5 of 5
Submitted: January 22, 2013 Stayed: June 2012
We really enjoyed our stay at Lone Spruce Lake Lodge!!

The house was comfortable and beautifully decorated!! The master bedroom was huge and the second room has really perfect with two nice twin beds for our two teenage boys! The entire house was decorated with the cool wildlife theme. The living room has a panoramic view of the lake, mountain and skyline. The deck outside the living room is huge and is great to relax to see the same view. The is the most scenic place we have ever stayed at!

The landscaping on the property is so green, with colorful flowers planted and in pots throughout the property. It is so scenic. We enjoyed the steps that lead down to the private dock, which had a boat for us to use to row and fish. The area around is so beautiful too, as my high school son and I ran all around the area. We really enjoyed running down the road, along the river. Wow, so scenic!!

We liked the centralized area, as we weren't far from Palmer for some grocery shopping, drive thru coffee and Dairy Queen! The roads around there were so scenic too!

The owners are so kind, informative and nice! They really made our stay so wonderful! They told us of great places to go and were so pleasant to talk to! We have travelled all over and felt that staying at this house was one of our best experiences!!

My Dream Vacation Come True

5 of 5

Dear LSLL (Mary & Bob)

What can we say except thank you for allowing us to utilize your beautiful lodge for our dream vacation. Yes, it took three years to plan and work into our busy schedules, but was definitely worth the agonizing wait!

Your home was exactly that, homey. Mary and Bob, you made us feel welcome. From the moment that we met you at 11:30 at night you had the same energy and enthusiasm as if it were 11:30 in the morning. Your lodge was exactly what we needed. Peace, quiet and beauty.

Thank you for sharing advice & stories with us about your fantastic state of Alaska. Even though it rained over 50% of the time it still took our breath & hearts away. It would be very easy and is very tempting to go and live in the wonderful, wild land that is your backyard.

Wrangell St. Elias alone was worth the 14 hours of flying. White water rafting, waterfall hunting, ATVing, flight-seeing the Alaskan range, zip lining, hiking in Hatcher’s Pass, and trying to spy on the various and sneaky wildlife was all icing on the cake.

Our trip was so memorable that it surely will not be our last trip to Alaska. Hopefully, LSLL will be available so that it can be placed on our agenda.

Thanks Bob, for the bear spray. Luckily, we never used it! Also, thanks for working on our rental car. It was obvious that you two cared about safety as much as we did. Mary also thanks goes to you for having such a clean & beautiful home with spectacular flowers to brighten the landscape, just like your smile each time we talked. We just loved sitting with you guys and talking about anything that came to mind.

Mary & Bob you are the perfect host & hostess. May God bless you and your Alaskan paradise.

Sincerely, the LaDukes from Swartz Creek, MI

Our family had a wonderful trip to Alaska in June and our stay at Lone Spruce was awesome. Bob & Mary were very welcoming and extremely helpful to us. They arranged for a river guide to take us salmon fishing and gave us lots of ideas for things to do. The accommodations were perfect for our family of 5 and we had a great time fishing for trout on the lake. I can't say enough about what a wonderful trip we had - we would love to return some day! Thanks so much for everything!!

A Wonderful Place

5 of 5
Submitted: June 10, 2012 Stayed: August 2011
As we arrived Bob and Mary greeted us as friends, showed us the place which was just amazing. Granite countertops, a wonderful tub, and an amazing view. I found a book in their bookcase about building Hoover Dam that was really cool. A boat and fishing gear was provided with a wonderful lake to relax on. Well appointed place, fully equipped kitchen, clean, homey, and well maintained.

The only drawback was my Verizon 4G didn't receive so I was off the grid except when I stopped at the Library 5 miles down the road. Far better than staying in a hotel. Would return

This property exceeded our expectations in every way. Very comfortable home with every imaginable amenity - and then some! Our hosts assisted us with anything and everything we requested....and never steared us wrong. The charter salmon fishing was awsome - as was the trout fishing right there at the house. A great location to explore much of Southern Alaska....close to town but definately has that secluded feeling. We visited the quaint town of Palmer often and enjoyed several lunches at Turkey Red, and after a couple of extra long days, picked up pizza from Pizza Athena on the way to the house....very convient and delicious! The view of Castle Mountain from the house was outstanding. It was nice to come to our "home" each night to make dinner and relax after our day's adventure. Thanks Bob and Mary for making our first trip to Alaska a very memorable one.
