We had a great time in Fairbanks using the cabin as our base of operations. We aera able to cook our own meals and make lunches for our days exploring the Fairbanks area. We even got a great look at the Northern Lights on our last night!

The cabin was the perfect size for 2. It was comfortable, clean, and an enjoyable stay. Definitely quite area, and very close to nature. Dan and Clarity was very helpful on anything and everything when needed. It is close enough to town but still out in the woods.

Dan was so easy to work with; loved the little house, perfect for a 1 or 2-night stay (we only could work in a 1-overnighter); clean, easy to access, enjoyed our stay very much; highly recommend!

I like this lodge very much! Just 10-15 minutes drive from the hotel and 20-30 minutes drive to the murphy dome where I saw the perfect aurora. The lodge is like a refuge from the outside world, queit and cozy, everything inside is clean and easy to use. If I want to visit Alaska again, this lodge would be one of the most important reason.
