Why Kay chose Palmer

Unlike a lot of vacation homes that are situated in primarily tourist areas, this cabin is located in a peaceful lake community inhabited by locals. You will enjoy a true Alaskan experience.

What makes this cabin unique

There is simply nothing like a true log cabin experience. We call it the 'zen cabin' because of the calming effect you will feel as you walk through the door. Log homes are living breathing things and you truly feel at home and relaxed here. You will enjoy the best nights sleep of your life, no noise and you can literally hear a pin drop.

We loved our stay in this amazing cabin so much that we are planning to return again next year. This was our first visit to Alaska and also our first ever stay in a real log home. The photos don't do it justice, it is even better in person. Everything was perfect. The kitchen is modern and easy to use we felt at home immediately. We were really happy to see the little extras like a great little spice rack and the decorative soaps etc in the bathroom. There was even laundry supplies. I can't tell you how peaceful it was, we slept like babies every night ! It is nice and close to every amenity you could ever want. The area is really picturesque and we loved that it wasn't a "touristy" area so we really got to live in the true Alaska. We're just happy that we chose this place to stay in and honestly cannot wait to get back !
Owner's Response: We're thrilled that you enjoyed your stay. Looking forward to your return visit - Kay

This was the first time we had ever stayed in a log cabin and we just loved it. All of the appliances were new and the cabin was so clean. There was cable TV and high speed internet and the kitchen was wonderful. We were very happy to see the collection of spices there for our use because we really enjoy cooking our own meals. My husband was happily grilling outside while I made the sidedishes. Loved the large counter.
We enjoyed the area with it's spuce trees and the granite mountains. So don't forget your camera, we took some awesome shots. We also liked being close to a lake but only a few minutes from anything we needed. I think the high lights of our visit were coming back to a cozy cabin and cooking up a nice dinner by the wood burning stove after a day of sightseeing. We then could play games or watch a movie. The bed was really comfortable and we were happy to see the block out curtains so we could sleep in as long as we wanted too. Our vacation was just lovely and we left well rested. We are looking forward to scheduling another visit here and the price was right. We give it a 10.
Owner's Response: Hi Claire ! - we're thrilled you enjoyed you stay so much. Can't wait to have you stay again !
