Mat-Su Valley Bed & Breakfasts

Fireweed Station can prepare all your meals, offers internet connections, and can even accommodate intimate weddings and retreats in fine style.

Chalet-style living. Gorgeous views. And most important, plenty of privacy. For travelers who like the  personal style of a B&B but like the independence of a hotel or condo, these vacation home rentals outside Palmer offer a blissful, secluded-feeling home base for a week—or even a month or more—of exploring the Mat-Su Valley and beyond.

Tucked away off the Glenn Highway—set between Anchorage and Talkeenta—Butte’s Bethel B&B, is a cabin-based bed-and-breakfast set on a five-acre organic farm. The two cabins—each 500 square feet, sleeping up to four adults (one queen size bed, one full size air mattress)—come with fully equipped kitchens, bathroom (with washer/dryer), and a dining room/living room with couch, dining bar, and a flat-screen TV.

The Alpine Rose Inn sits on six acres, with a large grass lawn leading up to the forest and big views of Pioneer Peak and Matanuska Peak. It feels remote, but it’s just off of one of the main roads, and it’s just a short drive into Wasilla or Palmer. Stay here for country living close to town, use the Inn as a base camp for local exploration (Hatcher Pass is only 10 miles away), or make a stop here between visits to Denali or Anchorage.
