The house was good, location was great. The only issue was the rooms were quite hot and the air units to keep the rooms cool did not always stay on or connected.

Perfect spot for rest!

Our family came in on a 2:40am flight and took the short drive to Teras home. After sleeping in I was very pleased that coffee is stocked in the home along with sugar :) Plus she had candy and other snacks available too! The beds were very comfortable and the LR/Kitchen area was also a great spot to lounge and talk. We talked about coming back when we can see the Northern Lights. This is an easy and great place to stay!

great spot and great deck on the river

Just know when it states air conditioning, that isn't for the entire unit, just the master suite--a bit confusing, and YES, it does get hot there. the lower bedrooms are cooler but the main living area can be uncomfortable, especially if you are cooking. we did not spend lots of time there, so it was tolerable, if annoying. otherwise a great spot--just communicate the details a bit better, thanks

Winter Alaska trip

We had a fabulous stay. This property was very close to the airport, we were able to get grocery and restaurant delivery, and we saw the northern lights from the porch! Our tour to Denali even picked us up and dropped us off at the door. Great stay for a family of 5.

Delightful Stay at Chena Riverhouse South Suite

This lovely home was the perfect home base for our week in Fairbanks. It was perfectly located near the start of the 2025 Iditarod, area dogsledding, area aurora watching, and near the 2025 world ice art sculpture championships.

Short stay in Fairbanks

Wonderful property on the river in Fairbanks. Clean, comfortable and well stocked. Owners left "treats" for us at check in that were much appreciated. We loved sitting on the lanai with wine looking at the river. The beds were very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Our Alaska Vacation

Before starting our Alaska Land Cruise with Princess, we went to Fairbanks early and stayed here. This house is well-maintained and highly recommended! It was my wife and I, my daughter and her two children and the other grandparents. Plenty of room and very close to all to do in Fairbanks! Enjoyed our stay before our cruise! Kids enjoyed the games and puzzles! Thanks!
