Fodor's Expert Review Colony Inn
325 E. Elmwood Ave., Palmer, Alaska, 99645, USA
All guest rooms in this lovingly restored historic building are tastefully decorated with antiques and quilts. The building was used as a women's dormitory during the farm colonization of the 1930s, and it still has a bit of a dorm vibe to it. The small café serves lunch and dinner. Be sure to try one of the homemade pies; the recipes have won blue ribbons at the Alaska State Fair. Inn reservations and check-in are handled at the Valley Hotel, at 606 South Alaska Street.
