There are no words to describe just how wonderful Elke and her cabin are. Really!
The cabin itself was beautifully decorated, the beds extremely comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked with everything needed to make breakfast and dinner. The morning light coming in through the windows, and seeing the Northern Lights right outside at night made the cabin feel magical.
The washer/dryer were appreciated after spending time at Chena Hot Springs. The wood burning stove was mesmerizing, as we looked forward to ending the day sipping tea/coffee by the fire. We did have one movie night in the TV room/bedroom upstairs, next to the bedroom loft.
Location was perfect, as we were centrally located to town, and the hot springs, both 30-45 min away. North Pole, reindeer walk, hikes were easily accessible. There is a feel of seclusion, without being isolated.
Elke herself was a joy to meet, such a bubbly and energetic personality! Her love of her dogs, and passion for dog sledding was evident, and infectious! We thoroughly enjoyed the included mushing experience and hot cider in a tent!
Communication with Elke was a breeze, she was prompt with updates and responses, including letting me know when the auroras were out! Her honesty, and moral character was demonstrated when she called me after checking out to alert me that my jewelry was found.
We'd definitely return to this cabin in the future, and encourage anyone considering a visit to Fairbanks to book this amazing place!!
