Unique & Imaginative: Time Traveler's B&B in Downtown Palmer
About this bed and breakfast
Located in Palmer, this lovely bed and breakfast for $178 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Go north to the future and back in time! Welcome to Downtown Palmer's 5-star "Night in Another Time" experience! Specially designed for the Sci-Fi, movie, or history buffs in your life, this imaginative museum will fire your imagination and thrill your kids. The mountain view is spectacular, the grounds are delightful and the downtown location is ideal for walking. The entire upstairs level of the house is yours to enjoy as each room is modeled on a different era from famous time travel movies. There are plenty of games and activities for rainy days, too! There are 2 bedrooms with private baths that sleep up to 5 adults. An excellent self-serve breakfast features "Hill Valley Breakfast Sandwiches" and "Clara's Souffles." A former Walt Disney Imagineer lovingly designed these rooms to give you an unforgettable and informative experience. Please enjoy the garden and the Stargate Treehouse, too. There is an orientation video. Things you'll see: 1) The Luggage Lift is a little amusement ride for your suitcases - it will lift your wheeled luggage to the 2nd floor in style. 2) The 1950s Paradox Parlor presents the story of The Twelve Monkeys SyFy series. Your hostess busses and resets the breakfast table every day. (there is no kitchen sink in the guest quarters) 3) The Hill Valley Continuum is what the Victorian honeymoon suite of Doc Brown and Clara Clayton might have looked like in 1885. If you've never seen Back to the Future 3, this is the perfect place to do that. 4) The Multiverse is where many stories collide. There are two twin beds and a bonus bed. The universe is depicted on the ceiling, the stars glow in the dark and there are other mechanical wonders to amuse young travelers in this room. The Micro-verse (walk-in closet) can be transformed into a tiny bedroom with a 5'9" bed. 5)The hall bathroom (Quantum Realm) has a step stool for small travelers and features displays about the Quantum Leap TV show. 6) The Stargate Treehouse is a fun little space to have tea and watch the birds. There is a heater. The swing can support a grown-up! *My Cleaning ritual always includes a timely dose of UV sanitizing light, killing 99.5% of all viruses, mites & bacteria.

We just overnighted but it’s such an adorable little find. You could spend a whole day there reading all the cool stuff Carol has done or exploring the various movie rooms and seeing something new.

One of our favorite parts of staying at the time travelers B&B was the breakfast selection. The freezer and the refrigerator were fully stocked and we even had fresh baked cookies to welcome us on our first day. The kids loved to explore the backyard, and we all thought that the treehouse was super cool! All of the inside decor was so unique, and we enjoyed reading a lot about time travel. The kids especially loved the luggage lift. It was a great spot to rest after exploring all day. We all slept great! The only downfall was there was not a large shared space for the four of us to watch a movie together, but just for a couple days, we made it work and it was okay. The host was super responsive, and that was greatly appreciated! Laundry worked great. Plenty of hot water.

Carol Dorman has created an Unbelievable B&B in the Time Traveler’s B&B in Palmer,AK.
The Charm and the Detail is on another level. A Guest steps back into time with a Back to the Future Theme….Wow!,
I’m glad our stay was longer than a day, so we could really feel the Charm of the B&B. Wonderful Breakfast in the Paradox Parlor. The Views of the Nicely Appointed Backyard and the Closeness of Mt. Peak and the Palmer Airport.
We Totally Enjoyed Our Stay and Would Highly Recommend the Time Traveler’s B&B. It’s a Stay You Won’t Forget in a Wonderful Way……

We very much enjoyed our stay. The accomodations were comfortable and also fun, especially as a fan of time travel. My 5-yr-old son was obsessed with the typewitter in his room! We appreciated the variety of delicious breakfast items provided which made our morning before departure that much easier. There was so much to look at and do there, I only wish we'd had the time to stay longer than 1 night so we could have taken better advantage of the full experience.

The property owner lives in the downstairs area so we didn’t feel very private at first. After the first night, we kinda forgot she was there. The place was spotless and the location was great!

We only stayed one night, but with all the things to investigate we could have spent a lot longer.

This place is an ode to all things time travel, primarily Back to the Future with touches of other fandoms as well. It is what drew us to the property. The host has thought of everything, there is soap and shampoo/conditioner fully stocked and lots of food stuffs. However, it very much felt like we were staying in a time travel museum both the and the bad. We never felt completely relaxed because there and lots of warnings about antiques and not breaking things so we approached the property with kid gloves. I realize that even though it’s our nature to be incredibly respectful of other people’s space doesn’t mean everyone else is - so I understand to a degree. However, with all of the labels and signage warnings we were never able to fully relax. I still think if you’re interested in time travel or quirky venues? Absolutely stay, so much thought and care has gone into every detail. I just would have liked to know a little more what we were getting into.

Our stay was great. Loved the luggage lift and the quirky decore. The main bed and bath are spacious. The second bed was small for 2 adults but fine. The location and view out the back window was fabulous

Had a really awesome TIME at the Time Traveller’s B&B! Carol has taken a lot of pains over this very interesting space - so many cute things to discover at every nook and cranny, overnight was not enough!
The luggage elevator was so innovative and fun!
The beds were comfortable and lots of choices for breakfast! This place has everything but the kitchen sink, but we didn’t miss that at all as Carol has thought of ways around if!
There are so many puzzles, books, games, DVDs, it’s a vacation in itself. We’ll be back!

Carol has put a lot of thought into this unique BandB. The 2nd B is for breakfast, which is all prepared and able to be microwaved or toasted in the little kitchenette. We didn't interact with Carol in person, but everything was ready when it should be. I did 4 stars for description, I was under the impression that the host lived in a separate building and not downstairs. This did not present any issues, but just should know before booking. Everything is clearly labeled and instructions are easy to find. Carol has a very strictly enforced no shoe policy, so if that's an issue for you (I have bad arches), then please take note and bring house slippers, or something. Would stay here again.

Carol is an outstanding host. Place was very clean and extremely interesting themes throughout the house.

The time traveller inn is a great little space in Palmer. One of the most interesting rentals we've ever rented. Carol has done an amazing job of creating not just a "place to stay", but also an experience. Not huge, but plenty of room for our group of 4.
Palmer is a great location for exploring more of the interior of Alaska, and this is a great spot to use as your "base" to explorer.

It was the perfect place for me and my four sisters to get together and participate in Palmer’s annual Who Let The Girls Out. In the evening we played board games listened to music and caught up with each other. Very comfortable place with everything we needed. Great views of the mountains and good location in the city of Palmer.

Really cool theme for a property.
I had forgotten about so many of the time travel movies and shows I watched as a child.
Very clean property. Every little detail had been thought of. A lot of care has gone into setting this place up. Both rooms set up nice. The pantry had many options for food and snack.
I’m really happy we had the chance to stay here.
Thank you Carol.

Carol has such an attention to detail for the decor of this location! Super creative that every room had its own theme. Felt very welcome and the place was very clean and comfortable. Great location, within walking distance to downtown restaurants and activities.
Nice that each room had its own bathroom since there were 4 of us staying.

We were four olderish women looking for an interesting place to rest our weary heads (and whatever is connected to them). The Time-Travelers B & B offered us so much more! It was so much fun and revitalizing looking at all the imagineering that was displayed on the walls, screens, and decor of the place. Carol, the creator of this multiverse was helpful and friendly. We are grateful to her for revitalizing our creativity and wonder! Staying here may have improved the rest of our journey by waking up our tired attitudes. 😀

It was a pleasure to stay at your VRBO. My oldest daughter (age 18) has been a Back to the Future fan since she was little. She stopped by and was captivated by all of the memorabilia! The food selection was perfect and there was something for everyone. My daughters that stayed with me are 2, 12 and 15. I appreciate the spaces, the sleeping options and have 2 bathrooms! Thank you!!
