North Pole Cabin Retreat

Our North Pole Cabin Retreat is a great place to come for a day, a week, or a month or more. A person can experience life in Alaska in comfort. Our log cabin was built in 2002 and has had many guests over the years. We provide housing year round, and winter or summer the cabin is warm, dry, and safe. Running water is a must, as are clean comfortable beds. The cabin has two queen beds, kitchenette, full private bath, BBQ and picnic area outside. Parking is nearby. We are only 2 miles from grocery, dentist, medical, gas stations, gift shops, dining establishments, churches and bars. Although you are close to the comforts of everyday living, it will seem as if you are a long way out in the woods. We are located in a private, wooded property with a waterway flowing by. In summer there are many nesting ducks. There are many wild flowers growing all around, as well as hanging baskets of flowers we plant for your enjoyment.

A Nice Home Base

I booked this cabin for my 13th wedding anniversary. From the get go, Nancy was very informative and accommodating. A very long story short, we ended up staying for two weeks instead of the original plan of one week. We used the cabin as a 'home base' while we travelled around southern Alaska. We appreciate Nancy so much in her efforts to make our stay comfortable.

Stayed here with my dad and brother for a quick weekend winter getaway and we had a great time! Cabin was clean and comfortable with modern amenities. It’s also located in a quiet area with a great view tucked in beside a river. Nancy was a great host who answered all our questions and provided us with recommendations for things to do and places to eat. Next time we’re in Fairbanks, we know where we’ll want to stay!

Cabin in a Winter Wonderland!

Cozy cabin, tucked among thick, snow covered pines. A true Winter Wonderland retreat! With a short drive, to everything the friendly town, North Pole, Alaska has to offer! Santa Claus House is near, and a short day trip to Chena Hot Springs is a must! Ifyou
