Your private Alaskan dream vacation brought directly to you; 5 Private acres - Aurora viewing - Alaskan woods - right at your doorstep. As you are nestled in this cozy cabin with all the creature comforts for a relaxing vacation, you will be completely surrounded by the Alaskan woods and the wilds you came here for. Entirely private 5 acres, no other houses in sight from cabin windows. Auroras dance above this cabin with beautiful clarity without the light pollution of town. (when weather permits) Well maintained roads to this cabin will keep you stress free as you decide between an evening soak at Chena Hot Springs Resort or a fun dinner in town.

LOCATION
This cabin is perfectly sandwiched between downtown Fairbanks and the Chena Hot Springs Resort, cozily tucked in genuine Alaskan woods. Far enough removed from Fairbanks light pollution for perfect Aurora viewing but still a comfortable (and gorgeous) drive in for groceries or dinner in town. As gorgeous as the drive in to town is, its even better out to Chena hot springs resort. This location cuts the drive in half from town to the Hot Springs to allow for an easy evening of fun at the resort. You don't need a room there to enjoy their phenomenal restaurant and bar or to buy a day pass for a soak in the springs!
Come experience this cabin for yourself as the perfect romantic Arctic getaway.

    Look no further, book this amazing cabin AsAP for your vacation in fairbanks. It was the perfect cabin, in the perfect location. The drive to the cabin is absolutely beautiful. It’s located in the middle of downtown Fairbanks and Chena hot springs. You do need a car to be more efficient. Plenty of space, clean, beautiful rustic modern decor and has everything you need in kitchen and laundry. Host had plenty of recommendations for local activities and they all were on par. We also did dog mushing with the host which was such a special and fun experience. Best experience was to be able to see aurora Borealis from the cabin. What a spectacular view. We highly recommend this cabin, and can’t wait to come back again! Thank you Lisa.

    The cabin was perfect! It was very clean and well stocked. The location was good for many activities. The owners were easy to work with and the dogs were so fun!! We loved the private dog mushing experience. It is very quiet and secluded, we were able to view the northern lights from the back yard! The whole experience/stay was amazing, we hope to visit again.

    We had an amazing time at this wonderful property. The cabin fit two adult couples very well and we had everything we needed. The hosts were very responsive throughout. Then beyond the beautiful space, we had the BEST time meeting the sled dogs and learning all about life in the area. We would absolutely stay again!

    Thank you to Elke, Matt, and Lisa or a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin in the woods. They were very responsive hosts, answering all of our questions and providing lots of great local recommendations and instructions on how to operate all of the amenities in the cabin. We stayed for 3 nights in September and enjoyed the peace and quiet of this welcoming, exceptionally clean and cozy cabin. It was a perfect place to unplug and relax, while still being close to town and offering the comforts of home. We were lucky to see the Auroras on our final night at the cabin, with dark skies right outside our front door. The dog sledding experience was unforgettable. It was such a treat to meet Elke's wonder dogs and learn about mushing in Alaska. Thank you for this experience - we will never forget it, and will follow the team in the upcoming Iditarod. We fell head over heels for the pups, and we'll be cheering for you in March!
