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.

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.).

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.

Amazing cute, with gorgeous views
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 was absolutely magical. My husband and I just got married at the Knik glacier and this was the perfect place to stay. The property is beautiful. Wonderful views of the mountains.

Picturesque
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!

One of the Best
The views are stunning and probably hard to top in many VRBO‘s. Large mountain in front clearly visible and taking up the entire view of the large windows from the sitting area. And dining area. And mountains from the front door. The house - which apparently has been recently refurbished - is well laid out well, well designed, and very comfortable. Beds are comfortable. The decor is charming without being over done or overly rustic. Just the right balance to make it fit in without being kitschy. Kitchen as well supplied and Modern. If we come back to Alaska we are coming back here.

Perfect location, beautiful setting, thoughtful provisions in every way, comfortable beds and bedrooms, and cleanliness that exceeds all other vacation rentals! It truly was a vacation respite and a marvelous, well appointed stay for our Alaskan family adventures! Playing corn hole under the ever shining sun and shadows on the mountains is a forever memory and highlight of Revival Acres.

Everything about this home was perfect. Stephanie was great to communicate with and we had everything we needed from the start. We grilled out on the beautiful back deck , played football in the side yard, and relaxed next to the beautiful flowers while taking in the views. The view from the home looked like a picture. The mountains in the background was a perfect touch to an amazing stay. Thank you Stephanie for the opportunity and we would highly recommend this home for your Alaska vacation.
