Beautiful Cabin, Great Location
We loved everything about this cabin! It's a scribed-log style that's beautiful and warm! Very nicely furnished. Good sized loft. Perched at the edge of a large field facing east, it's ideal for Aurora watching. About halfway between Fairbanks and Chena Hit Springs, it's a great location. Our dream vacation came true!

Remote, but close enough for Activities
The cabin is 45 miles from Chena Hotsprings and a little less from Fairbanks, remote, but close enough for all attractions. We really liked the comfy beds, how clean it was and being able to see the Northern lights. It had everything we needed to prepare our own meals, and after having read previous reviews, we brought our own condiments and olive oil. A larger coffee pot would have been nice during the cold weather, and the knives need sharpening. The spiral staircase to the sleeping loft is rather narrow and could be difficult for older people or very large persons to climb, for us it was ok. We had an enjoyable four night stay and would stay there again.

Fully Equipped Cute Cozy Cabin
Overall stay was immaculate. Cabin retained it's heat very well in -40 degree weather. Water heater definitely out performed & always had hot water on demand. Bathroom was stocked with the essentials and Beds were SUPER comfy . Great craftsmanship went into building the cabin & outfitting it. Kitchen was fully stocked with any utensiles or cookware needed. Spices, tea, and condiments were a tad limited, so we made a few contributions. A bundle of firewood was provided and was thoroughly enjoyed on our final evening. We also got to meet the local wildlife, a moose we named Matilda. Highly recommend this cabin if you're looking to enjoy a beautiful Alaskan frontier.

Loved everything about this cabin. Very peaceful with amazing view. Extremely clean. Plenty of room for our group of 5. The owner was so helpful and friendly. Quickly responded to any and all questions. We spent Christmas there and the inside was decorated for the holidays, which was so nice. Just all around great. Definitely recommend!

Nice Cabin!
Stayed 3 nights with my friend. We arrived late in the night but it is fairly easy to self check-in. The cabin is very warm and clean, with all the supplies that we needed. We were able to see clear views of northern lights (green and pink) on the first 2 nights by just stepping out of the cabin. It was so breath-taking! The host is very responsive in replying to our calls and messages. He even helped us light the fire pit in person despite that we called at 11PM in the night. The location is also good. We were able to drive to Fairbanks, North Pole and Chena Hot Springs for activities/shopping, and each of them is about 30 mins. There are stores a few miles nearby too. The host provided very detailed information. Would recommend to my friends!

My wife and I wanted to go to a place that was remote with no light pollution. The stay was amazing and we were able to see the northern lights by just walking outside around 1 AM. House had everything we needed and was nice and quiet. Would recommend to anybody looking to travel to Alaska!
