"Outstanding Stay Near Fairbanks
We had a wonderful stay at Alaskan Grizzly Lodge. The rooms are clean, beautifully updated, and very comfortable. The gourmet breakfasts were a true highlight—fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared each morning.
The staff is exceptionally attentive and welcoming, making you feel genuinely cared for throughout your stay. One of the most magical perks: you can watch the Northern Lights right from the lodge’s decks.
A fantastic place to stay near Fairbanks—highly recommended for comfort, hospitality, and unforgettable views."

"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."
"We stayed in the house for 4 days and able to see aurora (northern lights) from the porch of the house! Actually we were able to see it from inside the house even without having to wear coats and pants. It’s great location if you want to see aurora without traveling far during the midnight. I have 7year old son, and he wanted to sleep just before the aurora appears. So it was great convenience that we were able to see from the house.
The response from the host were very quickly and host were attentive to our questions.
The house was clean, and warm enough to keep us stay comfortably. The kitchen was equipped with cooking tools and utensils.
If I want to see aurora in Fairbanks, I would definitely go back!"
"Amazing! If I would create a cozy cabin, this would be it. I travel with my own twinkle lights to create the right soothing ambiance, but I didn’t need them here. Quiet, sparking clean, and efficient use of kitchen space. It also boasted the best water pressure of all the places we stayed in our 18 day trip.I met Raven’s staff (mom and maintenance man) upon departure and they sing her praises. This speaks volumes. Would absolutely stay here again and next time spend a week!! It’s convenient both to town and since it’s on the road to the hot springs there are many super hiking trails along the way to our soak. 5 stars, plus a bright one each for Cathy and Richard. Thanks you all :)(Photo is watching full moon rise from looking out the front door)."
"Location: Great out of town location yet easy drive to everywhere we wanted to go. Less than 25 minutes to airport. Less than 15 minutes to Walmart and grocery store (same route as airport). Less than 2 miles to two great restaurants: Silver Gulch Brewing & Bottling Co. and Turtle Club – we recommend both.Property: Cabin & property are very nice and listing is accurate. Had everything we needed plus some nice extras. Private, away from city lights. Enjoyed the patio right outside the back door - would have been great for aurora viewing if Mother Nature had cooperated. "
