Revival Acres: Historic Farmhouse on 5 Acres w/Stunning Mountain Views

Come enjoy farm field and mountain views from almost every window in our cozy 1930's Palmer Colony farmhouse. Everything has been remodeled to provide modern amenities while still giving a nod to the historic and rustic aesthetic. The beautiful original fir floors have been preserved. Soft-close cabinets, quartz and solid surface counters, tile bath surround, stainless appliances are all upgrades throughout!

Two bedrooms upstairs (king & queen beds) and a memory foam sofa bed (full) in living room downstairs combine to accommodate up to 6 guests. Our farmhouse is well-suited for families, couples, or really anyone looking for a peaceful country getaway or home base for their Alaskan adventure. Cook in our fully-stocked, beautiful, spacious kitchen or order in and get delivery from numerous local restaurants. The spacious bathroom has double sinks and a full length mirror.

Cozy up with a good book in the living room, enjoy wireless wifi, or use our Roku device to sign into your personal streaming accounts. The front courtyard is equip with yard games plus the back deck has a grill and large outdoor dining table. Only a 10 minute drive from downtown Palmer, yet wildlife sightings abound in our Alaskan countryside retreat (moose, fox, sandhill cranes, owls etc.).

Near so many attractions including the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm, ATV tours, numerous hiking trails, Hatcher Pass, Knik River & Knik Glacier, Pyrah's U-Pick Farm, farmer's markets, Palmer museum & visitor center, golf course, gift shops, microbreweries, local restaurants, & coffee shops. If it's not listed, just ask. We're happy to answer any questions and point you in the right direction to make your stay with us the best it can possibly be.

Located 50-58 miles from the Ted Steven's International Airport and about 8 miles from downtown Palmer. Exterior security cameras are located at three locations: front door/deck, front driveway & back door/deck. No smoking, drugs or parties on the premise. Front storm door is a necessity because of seasonal driving wind/rain. Please be sure to latch it tight when coming/going. Thank you!

Perfect Location
This was the perfect cozy house for our family for 5 nights while we explored the area. We enjoyed waking up to the breathtaking views each morning. The house was well-stocked for our home-cooked meals. After a busy day of hiking and exploring, the home was perfect for sipping tea and relaxing. Stephanie was very quick to respond and even reached out to check on us when there was a short local power outage. It was by far one of our favorite places. Would highly recommend staying here!

Amazing location and beautiful home
We really enjoyed our stay here and wished we could have stayed longer. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything needed to make it feel like home. The house was immaculate, and the beds were comfy. We appreciated the outdoor games! The scenery was so beautiful that I didn't mind losing to my teen in a game of bags.

The perfect house for our Alaska adventure
We absolutely loved this home! We were in Alaska for 2 nights to do an atv tour and horse back riding tour of the Knix glacier/valley. The location of this home was perfect and we loved the small town/ country feel. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We would love to come back and explore more of the Palmer/Butte area.

Perfect Palmer Getaway
This property was perfect for a several day trip to Palmer. The house was charming, cozy and had everything you could want for a home away from home. Bedrooms were comfortable and kitchen was a delight to cook in. Close to many fun attractions, including the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm and hiking trails. And the views of Pioneer Peak and the Butte were fantastic. Looking forward to staying there again on our next visit to Palmer.

This beautifully renovated, historic farmhouse is in a spectacular setting. Pioneer Peak is framed in the dining room window. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need.

Wow oh wow! This restored farmhouse is SO INCREDIBLY CUTE and cozy. Very stocked with kitchen and bath amenities. Beds were comfortable and cozy. Smart TV to sign into your own streaming services. Location was stunning, tucked in a valley with mountain views that our family thought was a painting when we showed them! We had several moose visit each day, with one morning javing 6 cross the fields surrounding. 5 star experience, and great host communication!

This property is so beautiful with breathtaking views. We all loved the modern farmhouse appeal. It was super clean and I especially liked the kitchen with the quarts countertops. Also the beds were super comfortable. The ONLY thing that was a bit of an issue was the water pressure. Other than that it was perfect.

Coming to Alaska??? You need to stay here! Adorable cottage with breathtaking views!
Revival Acres was an absolute dream. It was a picturesque location with Mountain View’s, beautiful property, and a great location. We feel that staying at this property gave us the real Alaskan experience. Waking up to the views of Pioneer peak out of the living room and dining room picture windows was the perfect way to wake up each morning. Stephanie was a fantastic host. The house’s esthetics were beautiful and she thought of every single detail of everything you would need while you were there. The house has some really cool history that we enjoyed reading and learning about from the materials that Stephanie has there for the guests enjoyment. We were able to visit multiple locations with this house being in a great central location: Seward, Anchorage, Telkeetna, and Eagle River! We feel that the house alone would make another trip to Alaska worth it! We will be telling everyone that if they want to visit Alaska the only place to stay is Revival Acres!
