We loved this cabin. It was just a few miles out of the city limits, so it was very peaceful. It had everything we needed except for laundry. I always over pack, so it wasn't an issue for us. The kitchen was full, the living area was very comfortable and cozy, and the bathroom was updated. The loft area was huge, so it was perfect for two couples or a family of four. The host Carl was great. He was very responsive, and even gave us some great food recommendations for the area. We would definitely recommend this cabin.

There was no washer and no dryer, and therefore should not be listed as amenities. Otherwise, the property and everything else about the stay were great!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The log cabin is incredibly cozy, beautifully decorated, and spotless. It felt like a true home away from home. Beyond the space itself, our host, Carl, was amazing and so accommodating—he made it incredibly easy for us to arrange a last-minute extension. We didn’t want to leave!

This cabin is in the perfect location. It is nestled in the woods right off a main road outside of town, yet only a few minutes' drive to everything you need - groceries, restaurants, shopping, etc. It's decorated very nicely and super clean. The beds were comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. We were able to stream our tv apps with no lagging. Plenty of parking space. We will definitely stay here again if we make it back up to Fairbanks. Highly recommend.

A beautiful property in an idyllic setting. Tranquil. Everything worked. The one item that failed - the TV - was replaced within hours by the host. Good, strong WiFi. The property was clean and functional. The host exemplary. Rapid and positive responses to communication. The location facilitated a on e in a lifetime experience for my husband and I.
The property. Like stepping into a Christmas card.
Sunrise view. Stunning.
A cozy fireplace. Wood and kindling provided.

Carl, the host, was amazing. I suggested to him that the kitchen could use a plastic spatula and a cookie sheet. An hour later these items were delivered to the door. He was very accommodating. This rustic cabin was perfect for us. Great for 4 people. It is nestled back in the trees….. so cozy. Fifteen minutes from Walmart, movie theater, restaurants. I plan on returning to Fairbanks next year and will definitely stay at this VRBO again.
