About this property

Enjoy our newly remodeled glam with an Alaskan flair home. Surrounded by birch forest complete with quaint sounds of rural Alaska including sled dogs in the distance. Take comfort with room for everyone as well as two additional rollaway beds. There is a large yard that is ideal for viewing Northern Lights. Our location in the hills experiences warmer temps and more privacy. Although we are conveniently located a short ten minutes from town, in the winter months it is best to have AWD/4X4.

Amazing home! Amazing location! Amazing hosts!

We can't say enough great things about the hosts and the home. We went with grandparents, us, our teenager daughter and everyone was extremely happy with the house! They had sleds for kids (or my husband!), woods for bonfires and all the wonderful amenities throughout the house. It was such a beautiful place to return to after our long day/night of activities around Fairbanks. The hosts were so accommodating and lovely, we all felt right at home. We loved our stay here and will definitely be back!

Modern amenities in the forest

What a beautifully furnished and decorated home! The owner has created a lovely little oasis. The home was warm, comfortable, and perfect for our 4 day stay. Plenty of parking space and they anticipated everything we might need.

Glam in the Woods

Staying at the "Gold Glam" Cottage really made our Aurora Borealis Hunting trip so much better. We really appreciated the comfortable beds. I especially liked the flat pillows with the puffy pillows. Bret was kind enough to bring over new batteries when the remote stopped working. He also suggested other places to see the lights and we did. Great suggestion and we saw then again. If u dont choose this space , you're missing out.out. to see the Lights. qorkicchoices.

Perfect cottage in Fairbanks

We came to see the lights and wilderness. The cottage is the perfect location for both. We saw a family of moose walking through the property the morning we arrived. We got a glimpse of the lights, but I’m sure we would have seen more if we had come later in the season. Denali National Park is a 2 hr drive and a must! The hosts were great at responding if we had questions, but the house has everything you need

Family time in Fairbanks visiting our son.

The house was perfect! Super clean, modern, with comfy beds. Do not freak out on the way there. It is in the wilderness. Yet, it only takes 15-20 minutes to get anywhere in town. We ate out or got Togo. The only meal cooked was breakfast and we had everything we needed. Brett is very helpful if you need anything and he’s right next door. We had a wonderful experience!

A peaceful country home

We rented the property to visit my son. He’s been stationed in Korea for the past two years and we have not been able to see each other. When we learned his unit was participating in operation red flag, we booked a family trip to visit. We are outdoors people. We have been on fishing adventures all over the lower 48 so I knew I needed a home outside and away from town. This is it! It’s 5-miles from anywhere in town but it’s easy access to some of the best do-it yourself Arctic grayling fishing in Fairbanks. From the Chena River to points north along the Elliott Highway, this home provides the perfect base camp for easy fishing access! You don’t need to “rough” it either. This is a beautiful home and very spacious. It’s 3-bedrooms and 3-baths. No complaints at all! The hosts are very generous as well. We really enjoyed our time together and this home made it very memorable! We loved it!
