Peaceful Hillside Refuge to Enjoy Aurora
10/10 Excellent
"This cabin was truly the most amazing, comfy, cozy, and magical place to spend our days in Fairbanks. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely immersed in the Alaskan vibe—the decor is beautiful and thoughtful, and the cabin is equipped with absolutely everything you could need.
We stayed during extreme cold, with temperatures reaching -45°F (-40°C), and to our amazement, the cabin still had running hot water the entire time. Being able to come back from our activities and take a hot shower was everything—it made our trip so much more comfortable and enjoyable.
The location is perfect. It’s far enough from downtown Fairbanks to feel surrounded by peaceful nature and trees, yet close enough to everything you need. Running Reindeer Ranch is only 5 minutes away, and it’s just minutes from Aurora Camp and Murphy Dome—honestly, this is exactly where you want to be for aurora watching.
On top of all that, the owners are incredible. They live just a couple of minutes away, so in case of any emergency they’re right there, and they are extremely responsive and helpful.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly, highly recommend!"
Cozy Alaskan Cabin, with rare Northern Lights views...
10/10 Excellent
"It’s was great, nice place "
View! View! View! Relax in Nature!
8/10 Good
"The cabin had a great view for seeing the Northern Lights.
It did not have a kitchen as stated in the listing. It provided a microwave oven and mini fridge. We booked for a week and expected to cook all our own meals. There was a hot pot but no mugs, cups, plates, silverware or microwave safe bowls. We had to make a trip back to Fred Meyers to acquire needed items. There was a BBQ but no items to cook with or clean the grill with.
I have mentioned these things to the host and she is looking into it. "
