Our stay was so off the charts amazing we're not sure how to even begin our review of the Bed and Breakfast ~ imagine being your grandmother's favorite grandchild and walking into her home and being embraced by the aroma of gingerbread cookies and every other smell that is so delicious it takes your breath away and then imagine being greeted by the proprietress {that would be Jill} and warmly greeted and welcomed to this amazing property that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places ~ taken on a tour of the beyond beautiful home then taken to your room that is even more perfect than the brochure shows and then awaken to the most delicious mouthwatering homecooked breakfast imaginable...joining the hosts Scott and Jill and other guests for breakfast ~ coffee and conversation memory making and good cheer! Jill and Scott thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being the beginning of our unbelievably amazing Alaska Arctic Journey ~ Bobby and Sharman

Very interesting house history and charming Victorian interior. Original boiler and pipes in the lower level and historic photos are fun to see. Lighting in common rooms is rather dim though and furnishings could use some attention. There are too many antique decorative items everywhere, making spaces cluttered (that observation might just be a reflection of my personal tastes). Staff is friendly and the kitchen is well stocked with 24/7 beverages and snacks. The location is good for walking to/from central Fairbanks.

The proprietors were charming folks and resident Alaskans. They provided a wonderful breakfast, taking into account our dietary preferences. They also were interesting in that they housed firefighters who had been working to control wildfires threatening some of Alaska's beautiful natural areas.

This was a great choice for our accommodations. Unlike a typical hotel, the beautifully restored residence and interaction with owners Scott and Jill provided a personal experience that was central to our enjoyment of our trip. The breakfast each morning was wonderful and it was truly enjoyable to be able to chat with Scott and Jill about themselves, the history of the property and the area. Their knowledge of Alaska was extensive and provided an excellent basis for making the most of our first time there. We especially appreciated advice on ways to view the aurora, locations for optimal opportunity and their perspectives on how to approach the experience. Prior to our arrival, Scott reached out via text to provide every bit of information we needed to arrive and access the home easily (make sure to include your phone and email contact data in your reservation information as this advance briefing made it easy for them to anticipate our needs, timing and make sure we had immediate access as while they are located nearby, they are not always in site). Two of our three nights had no other guests in the house so we had the place to ourselves and in the third we enjoyed talking with and sharing experiences with the nice couple who arrived and joined us. Heating was radiant style, so it was comfortable without the blowing of forced air into the room, and all other utilities were fully modernized so the environment was excellent. Top notch all around and highly recommend.

We had the most amazing time staying here and Jill and Scott were fabulous hosts. The house itself is a piece of history - beautifully restored in victorian splendor. We had a grand tour and were able to use the gorgeous lounge. Our room was super comfy and had everything we needed. Breakfast was amazing! It was different every day and was really delicious. Our lovely hosts provided so many great suggestions for restaurants and fun things to do that it made our trip to Fairbanks so memorable and we loved their company as well as other guests staying. The house is located easy walking distance to downtown and we usually walked to one of the great restaurant options for dinner. We plan to come back in summer to enjoy the porch swing. We will definitely be back in Fairbanks and will definatley try to stay here when we do.

Unique and nicely restored and maintained period home. Hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. Chose your room carefully as lower level does require several narrow stairs. Breakfast had limited offerings but snacks and beverages were readily available.

The hosts are wonderful: warm, helpful and informative. The location is very convenient to downtown. And the history of this B&B and its many occupants illustrates why Alaska has called to the entrepreneur, the artist and the opportunist.

This is a beautiful old property on the historic registry. It is furnished with antiques and period furniture. Don't expect an elevator. The plumbing is also old style but works fine. The lady that runs the B&B, Jill, is charming and engaging.

We ended up being the only guests for our entire stay and it was a great experience! We came in November to do an arctic circle tour and, obviously and as expected, there is not much to do in Fairbanks in November. The House had great history and being able to explore it (with the staff's permission) made this historian's stay extremely memorable. Breakfast was prepared for us every morning and it was far and above the best meals we had the entire trip. We loved every single part of this experience.
