About this property

Newly constructed cabin on a quiet residential pond.

Enjoy a stay in a cute and cozy one-bedroom cabin on a pond. I built this home with the intention of living in it after my kids are grown and out of the house so I've designed it with lots of love and attention. The pond is private and all the homes on the pond are owned by me or one of my family members. The area across from the house is my families construction business and sometimes during the day, on a weekday, you will hear some heavy equipment use, but this is not often and will only be during typical work hours. Otherwise you will find plenty of quiet seclusion here. Perfect getaway for a romantic trip or just time with family/friends.

The kitchen boasts beautiful white granite countertops, a deep set farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances and all the tools and gadgets that you need to cook delicious meals. The house has stained concrete radiant floor heating throughout, giving the house a rustic but cozy feeling.

There is a full size sofa bed in the living room to accommodate two extra guests. The bedroom is a queen size bed with memory foam mattress and nightstands with cordless charging station for your cell phone. A ceiling fan keeps the room nice and cool in the summer but extra warm in the winters. The bathroom has a deep set jetted bathtub with a personally designed beautifully tiled shower surround. The vanity has plenty of storage space for your toiletries. There is complimentary face wipes, cotton swabs and cotton balls and a hair dryer. There is a washer and dryer for your use in the utility room. There is wifi throughout the home with a roku tv where you can log into your favorite streaming app to enjoy a movie night or catch up on your favorite tv series.

Because the home is situated on the water, I have two kayaks available for your use. You can enjoy some time out on the water where you can see ducks, geese, cranes and sometimes an eagle or a hawk and then you can come back to the house and sit out on the porch and grill some steaks while enjoying a gorgeous view of the water. You may also get to catch a glimpse of the young male moose that likes to come play in the water from time to time. I also have a small propane powered outdoor firepit that you can sit and cook smores over.

We had a great stay; we were here for a few days to visit our nephew stationed at Fort Wainwright. It was nice to have our own space after a few days in hotels while traveling on the train from Anchorage. It was in a quiet area. We would definitely stay here again and recommend for others.

Excellent vacation rental experience. The cabin is truly a home away from home. Well kept and clean. Lovely outside area to enjoy a cup of coffee while watching nearby wildlife. The host was most helpful anytime we had a question. Looking forward to returning and will recommend this cabin to other military families visiting in the area.

Simple, yet well appointed home. Perfect for two, and easy to host 2 more for meals and games. Greatly appreciated how well it was plowed given the significant snow fall just prior to our arrival. Everything functioned well, even with the -40F night temps. Thanks Jemie for an enjoyable, second stay for us.

Great cabin for Aurora viewing !

The cabin was comfortable, cozy, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We chose it because it’s out of town away from the lights so we could view the Aurora. Beautiful yard and pond.

Relaxing Gem

We were in Alaska for 12 days with the last five days staying at the cabin. It was a great way to end our travels as it was very peaceful, calm and relaxing! The attention to detail and the communication with the renter was fantastic!! It is in a great location for traveling to different activities. I highly recommend this cabin!!

Great Base for Our Visit

We travelled to the North Pole area to visit our son and granddaughter. Being between Fairbanks and North Pole, this cabin was a great base location for our activities. It was nicely decorated and very clean. Communication with the host was easy and complete. We would definitely consider a return stay there if/when we make it back to Alaska.

Great cabin and location was short drive to downtown Fairbanks. Was quiet and secluded. There is a small independent gravel pit across the pond a couple of trucks and loader. Can hear them start up around 8 but not there all day. Weather did not allow us to view northern lights however appears to be great location to view. Wonderful set up for a couple.

Anniversary trip

This house is cute and in a beautiful setting! The house is on a property with other homes but you would never know. It’s very private. The house had so many cute touches, was nicely decorated, and very well equipped. It was a perfect place for my husband and I to explore a new city and relax. I can’t wait to come back!!

We stayed at the cabin for four nights over Thanksgiving and really appreciated how isolated and quiet the location is. It’s a great spot for aurora viewing just by stepping outside, though unfortunately it was cloudy in town during our stay. We still managed to catch a beautiful aurora outbreak by driving to Chena. The cabin itself is nicely equipped, with a modern kitchen, a washer and dryer, and a cozy living room. It’s a bit small, but the size is perfect for two people. One minor issue was that the water had a strange smell during our stay. It is something we were informed about in advance. It was a small inconvenience but manageable, and we hope it will be resolved soon.

About the host

Hosted by Jemie Born

Host profile image
I'm a hard working single mom who has been blessed enough in life to afford a 2nd home that I can use as a rental income. I am born and raised in Alaska and will forever call this beautiful state home! I want to be able to share all that I love with Alaska with those who visit.

Why they chose this property

I have managed rental properties for many years and finally I am able to have one of my own. I have done a lot of traveling and staying in VRBO's in several different countries. I know what I'm looking for in a home away from home and I hope that I can provide all that and more to my renters.
