About this property

NEW!Aurora River Retreat | Modern 5BR Sauna Escape

Step inside and feel instantly at ease. The home was fully renovated in 2025 with high-end finishes, warm wood textures, and expansive picture windows framing the river. The open-concept living area connects a modern kitchen, dining space, and cozy lounge — perfect for families or groups to gather and share stories after a day of exploring.

The chef’s kitchen is stocked with stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, a coffee bar, and every cooking essential. Enjoy family dinners with river views or sip morning coffee as you watch the sunrise over the snow-covered banks.

After a day chasing the northern lights or dogsledding adventures, unwind in your private Finnish-style sauna — the ultimate Alaskan comfort. Just step outside onto the deck to witness the aurora’s vibrant greens and purples dancing overhead. During summer, you’ll experience the midnight sun painting the sky in hues of gold and rose — a sight you’ll never forget.

Every detail is designed for comfort and convenience — fast Wi-Fi, in-unit laundry, ample parking, keyless self-check-in, and thoughtfully curated furniture that feels both modern and welcoming.
