"Staff was unbelievable!!! Food was great.
This place may not be a success without the present staff. Dog sled girl was amazing. Snow mobile girl was from Hawaii. The restaurant manager was hands on and just never stopped!
So corporate if you read this make sure you treat this staff. Oh the aurora was awesome too.
Thanks for an unforgettable trip"

Peaceful Hillside Refuge to Enjoy Aurora
10/10 Excellent
"This cabin was truly the most amazing, comfy, cozy, and magical place to spend our days in Fairbanks. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely immersed in the Alaskan vibe—the decor is beautiful and thoughtful, and the cabin is equipped with absolutely everything you could need.
We stayed during extreme cold, with temperatures reaching -45°F (-40°C), and to our amazement, the cabin still had running hot water the entire time. Being able to come back from our activities and take a hot shower was everything—it made our trip so much more comfortable and enjoyable.
The location is perfect. It’s far enough from downtown Fairbanks to feel surrounded by peaceful nature and trees, yet close enough to everything you need. Running Reindeer Ranch is only 5 minutes away, and it’s just minutes from Aurora Camp and Murphy Dome—honestly, this is exactly where you want to be for aurora watching.
On top of all that, the owners are incredible. They live just a couple of minutes away, so in case of any emergency they’re right there, and they are extremely responsive and helpful.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly, highly recommend!"
Rustic Retreat Under the Stars - Quiet, Cozy, & Woodsy - high speed WIFI
4/10 Poor
"The host never responded to us at any point. She did not send us the code for the key to get in to the place. We were only able to get in at all because of a friendship with the people who rent another place on the same property who were able to contact the property manager. Then once we did get inside, there was no water available. Most likely it was frozen. But we had to haul water from another location in order to even be able to flush the toilet during our stay. Showers were not an option available to us. The host never apologized or contacted us at all."
