Wonderful cabin! It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of towels, and washer & dryer with some laundry products if needed. The water pressure in the shower was fantastic. We got lucky the last night of our stay and to see the northern lights. Got some great photos. Andy & Shayla communicated often to make sure everything was good.

Work-Vacay Getaway
We stayed here because of work related travel in the area. We were thoroughly impressed with the property as everything represented in the listing was as good or better than expected. The location and cabin were the perfect combination of isolation and convenience and relaxation. The comforts and amenities were all perfect. The hosts were quick and friendly and caring with all requests and questions. Would recommend this cabin and host for either leisure or work travel. Staying here will reset your expectations for similar properties for sure. Very satisfied overall.

Such a cute cabin!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin! All the comforts of home, including a well-stocked kitchen. We appreciated the generous stock with things like plenty of towels, paper towels, trash bags, TP, etc. (we have stayed in VRBO's where that has not ben the case).We were especially thankful for the wonderful blackout shades as our visit was during the full sun days that Alaska offers in the summer. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. We definitely recommend this cabin & would stay here again! :)

Cabin Getaway
The cabin was very charming, and the pictures didn’t quite do it justice. We enjoyed lounging around comfortably after a long day of hiking out near Chena Hot Springs. I would definitely try to book this place again if/when we get to return!

Loved this little cabin!
My husband and I stayed for several nights of our honeymoon, and wish we could have stayed longer! The cabin is beautiful and feels very cozy. Plenty of linens, towels, and lots of things left in the kitchen by past guests to cook with. (seasonings, olive oil, etc.) My husband enjoyed the coffee offerings too! The location is very close to all the fun things we had planned for the trip (dog sledding, ice fishing, and snow mobiling) and the driveway was plowed upon arrival. Any minor issues we had, the host was able to respond pretty quickly too! We highly recommend this cabin and can't wait to return again soon, likely will try to book again!

We chose this VRBO based on location and it was awesome. Tucked away in the trees, it was private but convenient. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed and if there was something needed, Andy was quick to respond. We will definitely stay here again next time we’re in Fairbanks.
