About this property
Birch Bus in North Pole
Our beautifully converted 1978 GMC RTS-2 bus offers a one-of-a-kind Arctic retreat. Nestled in North Pole, this "rolling home" has been redesigned into an open-concept space.
If you're here to chase the Northern Lights or explore summer in Alaska, this bus provides a unique experience.
Inside is a Queen bed, and a fold out couch for extra sleeping arrangements. The Kitchen area has a sink, 2 burner cooktop and cookware.
Just a few steps outside is the bathhouse with a full shower and toilet.
