About this property

Romantic Getaway at the Goldstream Yurt

A romantic getaway in the beautiful Goldstream Valley, only 15 minutes away from town and away from the city's light pollution! Between September and April, there are amazing aurora-viewing opportunities from the yard or through the yurt skylight. This yurt offers privacy amongst the spruce trees and will make you feel close to nature! When the ground is frozen, you have close access (<1/2 mile) to the Goldstream winter trail system--fun for night aurora walks, cross-country classic skiing, and/or fat-tire biking! The Goldstream Yurt is equipped for all weather, well-insulated from the elements relative to other yurts and will keep you cozy when it is 40 below outside.

*There is an outhouse a short walk away from the front door, no indoor toilet or shower. There is running hot and cold water in the kitchen!
*The kitchen sink drains into a bucket, not outside! I expect guests to be aware of the bucket levels under the sink and to dump them when they are almost full (by trees outside).
*I have 1 security camera outside facing the driveway/porch of the yurt for security.
*As the yurt is located in the bottom of a valley, you will hear sled dogs howling across the valley at times. Although there are no neighboring teams, I want to give guests a heads up that you may hear these noises as yurts are not the most sound-proof structures!
* I offer a solo stove during September - April months for outdoor fires under the aurora, with firewood and kindling provided for use! Unfortunately, no fires during wildfire season!

What makes this property unique

The yurt is in a private, secluded area away from town. There is little-to-no light pollution, making for great opportunities for watching the aurora! You get a real Fairbanks experience here at the yurt, living similar to a "dry cabin" with a bit more glamour (hot running water from the kitchen faucet)!
