It was spotlessly clean. Everything was well equipped except the kitchen. It needs glasses for cocktails and wine plus real plates not plastic ones.
A new crockpot and coffee pot was really appreciated

The Hibernation Station was exactly what i needed. It was super comfortable and has all the extra stuff that you might have forgot. The host's were great and accommodating. I had to extend my stay a few days and Rachel/Coleman were able to make it happen. If Im ever back in the Fairbanks area I will definitely be looking ro stat here.
The property was perfect, plenty of room, decorated nice and very clean. Kitchen was well equipt for making holiday meal and goodies. Nice location and easy to get to the highway.
Very convenient location to Chena Lakes to view the Northern lights and do snow activities. The unit was clean and comfortable and had everything we need during our stay. The location was very quiet even though the unit is connected to the main house. The owner is very responsive.
We enjoyed our stay here. It was clean and had everything we needed. It was a beautiful winter wonderland! The hosts were friendly and answered any questions we had. We would stay again in a heart beat. Highly recommend this property.
The AK hibernation station was perfect for us. We needed a break from the hustle of reality and this warm and comfortable suite fulfilled our desires. It provided us with a comfortable bed, clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen and luxurious family room. The owners were quick to respond to any concerns or questions. We would stay here again.
It was a very nice place to stay. It was clean, and comfortable. Easy access to everything. We could be more happy. We hope to stay there again on our next visit
Perfect location to see the Northern Lights. Saw them from the house on 2 of our 5 nights. Close enough to Fairbanks for food, comforts, etc. We left the trip and were happy with the house. Thank you for the quick communication while we were on the trip.
Nicely decorated. Well stocked. Nice size rooms. A wood pallet as front steps was a negative. Wood was splintered. Stove could've been cleaner. Overall, more positives than negatives.
We absolutely loved this place! The kitchen was well-stocked with essentials like pancake mix, cereals and etc, making our stay even more convenient. The host’s thoughtful touches, like providing foot warmers, made us feel truly cared for. One of the highlights was seeing the Northern Lights right in front of the house! Plus, Chena Lake Recreation Area, a fantastic spot for aurora viewing with open space and no city lights, was just a short 10-minute drive away—perfect for safely getting there on snowy roads on cold winter nights. We were incredibly lucky to see the aurora three out of the four nights we stayed. This was an unforgettable experience. You won't regret staying here if you want a great aurora-viewing experience.
We loved the hospitality! From the friendliness of the hosts communication, all the way to extra K pods in the kitchen.
The place was spacious, very warm, and homely, even with homey touches like the Christmas tree.
The outlets outside to plug in the car were a blessing in disguise that we didn’t even know we needed.
We were even able to see a glimpse of northern lights in the sky.
The views from the windows were out of this world.
It wasn’t that far from Fairbanks, and there was plenty of restaurants, convenience stores, gas stations, etc that it didn’t feel too remote.
Overall 5/5. Could not imagine a better place.
We loved EVERYTHING about this place!!! The cute decor, the immaculate cleanliness, and the comfy beds and couches and warm water shower made us feel at home!!! They even provided popcorn, granola bars, toothbrushes, razors, and an awesome selection of kcups for daily coffee!!! We saw northern lights from the property. We also went out to the dam which is not far and got amazing photos of the northern lights!!! They were so friendly and communicative and loved our chance to visit with them!!! Perfect spot as a base camp as we day tripped to the Artic Circle and Denali!!!! Having a washer and dryer helped our packing to stay less and thankful for detergent to use too!!! They thought of everything and if we are ever back in North Pole will stay here again- NO DOUBT!!!
This cabin was everything we needed for our vacation. We were visiting our son, stationed at Eielson AB. The distance to his house was a 20 minute drive. While in Alaska, we did several activities, and pleased to find that some of these activities could be found within a 5 -10 minute drive from our cabin. For a secluded feeling, it was surprising to realize we were quite close to many fun things. We enjoyed driving the 10 minutes to the Chena Rec area and seeing the GORGEOUS Northern Lights. We really couldn’t see them from the cabin, but that’s due to the trees (which are very pretty, btw.) We enjoyed the roominess of the cabin. All the rooms were large! We made use of the laundry area and appreciated the detergent and dryer sheets available for use. The bathroom had a supply of towels, toilet paper, razors, and toothbrushes, along with items like shampoo, body wash, and hair dryer. Everything was pretty clean. The kitchen was stocked with necessities plus extras. The coffee bar items were a nice added touch too. We felt safe. Although the owners live on-site, we only saw a glimpse of them pulling into their garage. We did not hear them or see them really at all. We had an issue with an alarm sounding under the house. We contacted them and they quickly responded and fixed the problem. I will say there are strange sounds in the pipes at night. I wish there was a sound machine available to help with this. The bed could def use a new mattress too. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Aside from the previous guest not doing their closing check list everything was great. Wish I could've figured out the thermostats a little better. They would bump up in the middle of the night and would wake up warmer than we wanted.
Beautifully updated - the pictures are extremely accurate and truly highlight the Alasakan experience that we were looking for. The kitchen was well equipped and very clean. Laundry was clean and easy to use.
Amazing house and fully loaded!!! I literally just needed to show up with clothes. Fantastic amenities, great decor and furniture! Would stay here on my next trip up!
This property is so beautiful and just what we needed. Fully stock with everything you need! We had a short stay, and we would stay again in a heart beat! My only suggestion is chairs outside to enjoy the outside.
It was a precious place. THe host was very nice and communicated so well.

Stay was ok. We were a little scared at first due to arriving at night. We unknowingly pulled up to the back of the place and the grass/bush is overgrown. Kind of looks abandoned. Also I don't know if it was the sewage or what but there was an awful smell in the bathroom. Had to keep the bathroom door closed. Otherwise the pictures are accurate and the stay was comfortable.
