Enjoy your vacation in this beautiful home situated on the banks of the Chena River! This very private 4 bedroom, 3 bath home sits on 1.5 acres, has a fully equipped kitchen, two living areas, two decks including one off the master bedroom, a heated two car garage, and plenty of room for one large family or several families or friends together. Relax with your coffee on the deck and take pleasure in the views of the river, wildlife, and the aurora. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs, and one bedroom and one bathroom downstairs. The kitchen is fully equipped including a coffee pot, electric tea kettle, toaster, and crockpot. Guests have access to an outdoor fire pit, indoor wood stove, and a 2 car heated garage. Our house is located right on the Chena River between Fairbanks and North Pole, AK. It is a 15 minute drive to North Pole and 15 minutes to downtown Fairbanks. The international airport is about 20 minutes
Cute clean place to stay. Very quiet and peaceful. We didn’t get to see the northern lights but saw animals and other sights in the area.
House was perfect for the 7 of us. In town for our nephews wedding. One suggestion- with temperatures getting warmer, it would be nice to have fans for all the bedrooms.
I loved staying here when we were visiting Fairbanks. The heated garage was what won me over when initially looking for a place to rent. The house is roomy & has everything you could need :)
The house is large and great for big groups. We appreciated the mudroom for getting into and out of the house with all of our snow gear. Also, the heated garage is amazing. It is an older home with some updates, which we appreciated. The only criticism about cleanliness was the lower kitchen cabinets needed to be wiped down. Quite a bit of grime/spills on them. Also, I did have to chase down property owners by contacting VRBO to get the check-in information.
We really enjoyed staying here - plenty of space, well-appointed, and such an amazing view of the Chena River!
We so enjoyed our stay. Beautiful scenery off back deck. Horses and goats across the way was a pleasant surprise. Plenty of room and well supplied.
Great place to relax along the river and let your the good times roll.
This was our family’s first vacation to Alaska. The location of this spacious, comfortable home on the river was Perfect! We enjoyed the peace and quiet and of course the family time. We were able to explore near by and for us the location was ideal. The scenery was exquisite and the river created a mirror of gorgeous reflections. We were able to experience a classic thunder storm . Facilities were more than adequate for our needs, therefore allowing us to spend time at the house as well as explore. Overall fantastic family vacation. Thank you John and Wendy?
I would rent this property again very fun experience big house with plenty of room.
This house suited us perfectly! It was very comfortable. Could use a few more pots and pans (we have big eaters :) ) Loved the back deck and being on the river. Thank you John and Wendy!
This is a great property with enough room to accommodate your large group. Very well stocked with everything that you will need for a comfortable stay. Close to Fairbanks and highways. I would ask the owners to add dark shades along with the blinds during summer and clarify that no bathing soap or shampoo is provided so that renters can be prepared. Everything else was just great and could not have asked for anything more. Will highly recommend this property. Thanks for sharing this great property with our group.
This was a great house, large enough to spread out and the deck was where we spent our time......looking at the river and kayaks float by. Very peaceful. Kitchen was well stocked. We stayed during an extremely hot time and the house has no AC, like most Alaska homes, but we would open the windows we could late evening and the house cooled off during the night so we could sleep comfortabl. Some fans in the bedrooms would help. There was no communication with owner once we got the code on our arrival day. We like for owners to check in with us just to make sure all is well but we would definitely stay at this home again. Wish there had been kayaks to use, perfect location!
Myself, my brother and his wife and my sister and her husband. The only downfall was we couldn't enjoy the back patio due to the insects being very hungry for our blood. Loved seeing the two horses come out everyday and drink in the river. We each were able to have our own private bath which is a plus on any vacations. The short 15 minute drive into Fairbank daily went well.
