About this property

Private Log Cabin in Goldstream Valley of Fairbanks

Welcome to Comfy Caribou Lodge!
We’re so glad you’re considering our cozy getaway while you explore all that Interior Alaska has to offer.

Our 1,700 sq. ft. log cabin combines the best of both worlds — rustic charm downstairs and modern comfort upstairs. It’s the perfect place for families, friends, or couples to relax, recharge, and enjoy the peace and beauty of nature.

Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting space with three comfortable bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, and a cozy living room that’s perfect for curling up after a day of adventure.

A Note About Power
Alaska’s weather can be unpredictable, and outages do happen. But don’t worry — our automatic generator kicks in the moment power goes out and keeps things running smoothly until the lights come back on. Whether it’s a couple of hours or a couple of weeks, you’ll stay safe, warm, and comfortable.

Get Outside and Explore
Goldstream Creek winds through the Fairbanks valley and is home to moose, foxes, and a variety of birds and other wildlife. There are endless trails nearby — perfect for hiking, birdwatching, berry picking, or dog walking in summer, and for skiing or dog mushing in the winter.

We’ve also put together a binder full of local tips, maps, and our favorite things to do so you can make the most of your stay.

Come experience the magic of Alaska at Comfy Caribou Lodge — we can’t wait to host you!

Our family loved staying here! The check in was easy with clear instructions and we found the home clean and everything working well. Our children really enjoyed playing in the snow surrounding the home. It was quiet and the surroundings are beautiful! We watched the Aurora Borealis both nights we were there with clear skies from the front of the house. I highly recommend staying here.

Staying at this Fairbanks cabin was unforgettable, from watching the northern lights right from the bedroom to relaxing on the deck under the glowing sky. We loved exploring everything nearby—dogsled races, the World Ice Art Championships, the UA Museum of the North, and even day trips to Denali and the North Pole. The cabin itself was incredibly comfortable, with a well‑stocked kitchen and thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. It was the perfect base for an amazing Alaska adventure.
