I want to emphazise that the the Northern Lights are predicted to peak in 2025. 2021 was an exceptional year and so far 2022 has had some incredible Auroras. Generally, the peak season begins August 20-April 15. Realize that the earlier and later in the season, the darkness is less, so you generally have less of a window to view the lights. It is warmer, but your viewing period is shorter. I was just above the arctic circle for a week (Sept 2-11) and had 2 phenomenal evenings of lights viewing 4 hours and 2 hours. If you want to have a good opportunity to view the lights, check out the UAF Geophysical Aurora Forecast which can help predict peak times to have success. That being said, I have had excellent viewing with a 2 kp level. This year there have been a number of days with a 6 kp level which is extraordinary.. If you are interested in viewing or photographing the lights, let me know what you are interested in and I will do my best to help. https://www.gi.alaska.edu/monitors/aurora-forecast

Close to Pioneer Park,, Carlson Center, bus lines, Chena River, Growden Park Baseball fields, little league fields, and Ruth Burnett Fish Hatchery.
Marlo's Bakery, McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Asian Bistro, and Dennys are within walking distance.
I thought the apartment was comfortable and clean. I liked the coffee mugs. I really enjoyed my stay and liked the location next to pioneer park. I rented a bike and the garage was handy for storing it safely overnight.
Cute little A-frame building over a two stall garage. Water heater and forced air system worked great, even had a cute kitchen set-up with 2 burners for cooking. Lots of complementary items like soap, coffee, spices and linens, so don’t worry about packing all of the essentials. The building is located in the alley behind the dentists office, so there’s no highway noises despite being probably 100 yards from Airport Way. Perfect distance from town, grocery, and not a bad spot for traveling out of town to visit parks or view the Aurora.
8 day stay in cold Fairbanks. This upstairs garage apartment was warm and allowed us to eat in/prep lunches more so as last 4days of this Alaska trip has us eating out each day at Healy/Denali. Enjoyed eating at German food truck at Hoodoo’s brew pub in Fairbanks. We are active 70 yr olds who like to be in by 6 pm. Husband easily connected with You tube TV; good reception. Good sleep; plenty of bedding n blankets; shower head good. Garage kept our car warm. Washer-dryer: large sizes. Host has supplies for most any need: Soaps/paper products, coffee filters, bread boards/sharp knives, adequate kitchen prep space, seasonings and pantry items left by previous renters. Last day I saw first aid kit in bathroom cabinet. Much thought given to daily needs Location is easy access to stores, Catholic Church across the intersection, University of Alaska museum, Creamer Wildlife refuge, Antique Car museum, Pioneer Park -do walk through it across the street. Great sunsets from front room window. Saw northern lights at Cleary Summit pull off; full moon was too bright and the Aurora lights were low level intensity but still exciting. Drove to 12 mile summit, Chena Hot Springs, hiked Angel Rock Trail and Birch Hill’s Nordic center has a good hike too. Do head to North Pole’s Santa Shop, drive through Birch Hill Cemetery- unique how graves are decorated. Not the Marriott, but would rent again….. we kinda been here and done Fairbanks! Yay
Only minutes from the airport, it lived up to its name an apartment over a garage but it was clean and afordable the owner was great and stayed in communication from days before arrival through out thw stay and offered great advise. The apartment is directly next to pioneer park which during the open season looked cool. Traveling from here is very convienant. I would recomend it for couples or business people on a budget
A cozy space with complete setup for cooking and living. Nice to be in a single unit.
Stayed in Fairbanks for a week to drop my freshman off at UAF. The property was exactly what I expected and perfect for my needs.
Nice , convenient, and clean!
Clean, quiet, easy to get into even it was after 1100 pm.
Great little place for 1 or 2. All amenities were there. Has stairs if that a problem for some. Close to anything you might need as far as stores and restaurants. Very clean and very responsive owner. Would use again if I need to come back to Fairbanks’s.
Well furnished and all we needed for our stay. Just a bit warm inside.
The property was very comfortable I stayed in the summer and was a very grateful for air conditioning and the kitchen is set up for those who want to do cooking while they're here. Would definitely stay here again
The place was great very clean comfortable great location. Brian is a great host always available when you have questions. highly recommend if you are planning a trip to Fairbanks
Brian is a great host and the garage apartment is very comfortable.
Super good stay. So much better than a motel. Pretty much had all the comforts of home . Even had laundry room and a garage! Great place to stay!
A cozy apartment close to everything. Not in the center of the city, but just close enough where you're just a few minutes away. The space has all of the basics you need, but more than anything, it was Brian that made our first trip to Alaska such a great experience. Without boring anyone with details, all I can say is that this girl from Hawaii who was a little clueless was able to experience the beauty of Alaska in a way she otherwise would not have because of the knowledgeful help of Brian. Thank you so much Brian, and we will let you know when we're coming back!!
This is a comfortable, private unit above the owner's garage. We returned for a second stay in this little apartment. Clean, well maintained upstairs unit.
Enjoyed staying here and loved the cleanliness of the place. Quiet neighborhood, no worry of downstairs or upstairs neighbors. Close to everything.
Clean, well-furnished apartment. It is a comfortable, quiet place, and the owner is quick to respond. Excellent choice!
Comfortable. Good wifi.
Had a great time in Fairbanks. Property is in the best location. We’ll recommend this place to anyone traveling to Fairbanks ?
The apartment was very comfortable and cozy for two. Again we loved it and thanks for the wonderful experience.
Brian is a great host and this was an easy place to get in and out of which everything nearby!
This property worked very well for our needs in Fairbanks. The property was very clean and the AC unit was a nice touch on the hot days. We used it has our home base for 4 days and it was perfect. Communication with the owner was excellent. Will use this property and owner again for our future stays in Fairbanks!
Apartment was clean, charming, comfortable and in good location. Would stay here again.
Overall a good place. Parking was great. Right next to Pioneer Park aka Alaskaland.
Clean and well stocked and good central location. Liked having a washer and dryer and air conditioner kept it comfortable with summer heat.
