Alaska Birch Cottages, Palmer, Alaska

Exclusive, private, luxury cottages in the heart of the Matanuska Valley in Central Alaska offer you the perfect retreat or base camp for your Alaskan vacation. Hosts Bill and Jacqui Johansen offer you their travel experience and warmth to make your stay as interesting and wonderful as possible. Year-round accommodations! Clean, comfortable, affordable - our cozy cabins are nestled in the heart of the valley close to main routes to all of Alaska. We promise you will enjoy your stay in our cabins.

Truly a home away from home. Six individual, smoke-free, luxury cottages with exposed beams, tastefully decorated, including all the modern conveniences; yet, tucked away in a little cul-de-sac for peace and quiet. Four cottages have one bedroom on the second level and two have a second bedroom on the first floor.
Each unit contains a full kitchen, in-floor heating, wood & slate floors, washer and dryer (coin-operated), fireplace, a full bathroom on the first floor with jetted tub with 2 showerheads, half-bath on the second floor with the bedroom, down duvets, king-size beds, and TV. At the beginning of your stay, we stock your private cottage kitchen with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, sugar, pancake mix and syrup, cereals, butter, milk, and juice. You will also receive a welcome basket with free-range eggs from our hens (subject to availability), homemade bread, rolls, and jam. The Three Bears grocery store is approximately one mile away at Four Corners (Trunk Rd. & Palmer/Wasilla Hwy.)
