King Bed. Pet & Family Friendly Upper unit. Walking Distance to Downtown Palmer

Your Private Perch in Downtown Palmer

Discover the perfect blend of small-town charm & mountain scenery. The Auklet Nest is a freshly renovated upstairs retreat that puts you steps away from local life. Walk to a brewery, grab a pizza, cook a homemade meal, or just relax in the living room and watch the clouds pass over Pioneer Peak.

Walk to shops, bars, and dining.
Unbeatable views of Pioneer Peak.
Remodeled, Pet-Friendly, & meticulously clean

Your Palmer adventure starts here!

Whether you’re here for a hiking expedition, a local wedding, a family visit, your kids sports tournament, or a work trip, The Auklet Nest offers a curated blend of downtown convenience and modern "nest" comfort. This meticulously updated 3-bedroom retreat is your quiet haven in the center of the action.

𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓 & 𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐆𝐄
The Master Retreat: A serene space featuring a comfortable King bed and fresh linens to ensure a restful night after a day of mountain air.

The Guest Quarters: Two additional bright bedrooms (Queen and TWO Twins) perfect for family, friends, or colleagues.

Flexible Living: A spacious, open-concept living area with a Smart TV and comfortable seating—ideal for movie nights, board games, or catching up on emails at the dedicated workspace.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐅’𝐒 𝐊𝐈𝐓𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐍 & 𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆
Gourmet Ready: A fully equipped kitchen with modern Maytag stainless steel gas appliances, cookware, and all the essentials needed to whip up a local meal from the Palmer Friday Flings market.

Morning Rituals: Sip your coffee while staring directly at the jagged peaks of the Chugach Range.

𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐁𝐀𝐒𝐄 𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐒
Laundry Made Easy: Skip the laundromat! Enjoy a full-size, in-unit washer and dryer with all detergents provided.

Work & Play: High-speed Wi-Fi and a dedicated desk make this an ideal spot for "work-cationers."

Family First: A spotless, inviting environment that is as functional for kids as it is stylish for adults.

Easy Parking: Parking for 3+ vehicles is available and located right next to the stairs leading to the entrance of the unit. No trekking through the wilderness to get inside!

Fenced Freedom: Your pups are family here! Enjoy the rare downtown luxury of a private, semi-fenced yard.
