"This was a quick stayover between other towns so I really didn't care too much about the location. But the bed was the worst we slept in over our two weeks, including sleeping on the ground. Very hard and we could feel the springs. The bed frame was nice but the position of the tv made it impossible to watch it from the bed and there was no other place to sit. We had a hard time finding some place to eat in the local area as many places were closed or too far away. This is obviously not the...

"Felicia did a great job of communicating and handling everything we needed. The unit was clean when we got there and the sheets and towels were swapped when needed. The place was exactly what we were looking for as we were spending our days sight seeing and mostly just slept there but there was enough appliances to make toast, coffee and keep things cool. The location is good and central to area amenities and sight seeing. We would stay there again "

"I’ve been visiting Palmer every few months for the last couple of years, staying at local hotels. No more! On a whim, I looked for a B&B for this trip and found Time Travelers. What a wonderful and amazing place. Everything was so much more interesting than the VRBO listing, and the accommodations were genuinely first class. Conveniently located, and a great introductory video from Carol that left nothing to have to ask about! A timeless treasure! No more local hotels for my trips to Palmer!"
