Upper Mesa Villa #5, Glacier Suites - Upper Mesa Villa #5

The Villas of Upper Mesa are Glacier Suites' second location of twelve nearly-new and fully-appointed standalone private residences. Located off of a low-traffic side street just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Palmer, each unit at Upper Mesa is constructed from ICF (insulated concrete forms) for the ultimate in comfort and quiet. The fully-furnished standalone villas each have 3-bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, radiant heated floors, a fully-stocked kitchen, storage room, ensuite laundry, charming living areas and many more upgraded amenities designed to accommodate up to 8 guests. Netflix and chill at your home away from home on our Roku-enabled TV, or keep up with business with included wifi. With quick access to everything the Mat-Su Valley offers, this villa provides a comfortable, clean and convenient private space for your Alaskan getaway.
Palmer is just 45-60 minutes northeast of Anchorage, and is a an ideal basecamp for all kinds of attractions throughout south central Alaska. While adventure & activities (like Hatcher Pass, the Reindeer Farm, Musk Ox Farm, Glacier Tours, and more!) are practically right in our backyard, we are also a great go-between for stays ranging north to Talkeetna & Denali National Park, northeast to the Matanuska Glacier & out to the Al-Can Highway, and, of course, south to the fishing & outdoor mecca that is Alaska's Kenai Peninsula.
Guest accommodations at this residence include:
  - 1 primary queen bedroom with ensuite full bathroom
  - 1 bedroom with queen size bed
  - 1 bedroom with two twin beds
  - 2 additional cots stored in the twin guest room closet
*Pets welcome. Contact your host for additional information.

Fabulous place to stay!
The pictures and description does not do this place justice. It is huge, new, and super clean. The kitchen granite countertop must have been 10’ long, so we had an incredible amount of room to spread out. The location is close to everything, yet tucked back off the Hwy so is private. We loved it here!

Palmer rental
My family stayed here for 3 days so we could attend the Alaska State Fair. The house was plenty big a very clean. It got really hot at night so that was uncomfortable even with the windows open. The kitchen was very nice but I'm glad we weren't planning on doing any cooking because there wasn't even salt and pepper let alone any other spices to cook with. There was coffee and filters which we appreciated. Overall it's a great rental right between Palmer and Wasilla.

Modern and clean
The concrete floors and granite countertops add to the sleek, modern feel of the Villas property. It was private, quiet, and had a nice back patio. The weather did not cooperate to enjoy much of a view, but that didn't detract from the place. The kitchen supplies were scarce, but the host brought us a cake pan when I asked about needing a pan to make cornbread, so that was super nice. The radiant heat from the floors took a while to heat the place up, but once it did, it was very comfortable. Nice accoutrements in the bathrooms.
