We had a great stay at Ruth's place! Very unique experience especially during the winter. For flying enthusiasts, I can't imaging the summer experience with planes coming and going. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Host had really good communication. Place was clean and warm. Nice beds. Furnished well. Lots of parking and a place to plug in for the extra cold times. Also off the road, so mostly quiet, with the occasional airplane noise...so perfect.

We loved everything during our stay. The place was cute and super clean. We’re always wary about linens smell but this place amazed us. All bathroom towels and bedding smelled great! Mattresses were very comfortable to the point one of my friends was looking for a tag because she wanted to get the same one at home! The house was fully equipped with everything and beyond! Great selection of Keurig coffee, plenty of high quality kitchenware, fully stock spices for cooking, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, and even moisturizer to help with your dry skin in Alaska cold. Wifi signal was strong. Overall there's nothing we don't like about the place! Our host, Ruth, was responsive and answered all questions within a few minutes which we really appreciate.

The hangar home was a cozy spot to stay during some cold nights. The kids appreciated the toys and adults enjoyed relaxing together and doing puzzles. Everything was clean and as the pictures showed.

Great hangar home in a quiet section of the airport on a side taxi way. The view from the back porch is to trees and hillsides. The house is very nicely furnished with nice details.

Cozy place…

I was visiting my mother and sister and needed a place to stay for the week. I found Bushplane Hangar a nice fit. They have everything you need: I was able to make my mom some of her favorite meals in a well accessorized kitchen. My 13 year old son also enjoyed the planes.

Cozy, warm, perfect

This property is exactly as it is described and more! Anything you need is provided and any questions answered promptly. We found it to be the perfect base of operations for our visit to Fairbanks. It is easy to get everywhere and road conditions were good even when it snowed. Can’t say enough good things. It’s cozy, warm and perfect!

Excellent Get-A-Way

Our family of 4 loved the hangar and the location was great for getting around Fairbanks. It was a quiet location also! It was so nice to come to a place that was stocked with a few kitchen food items, especially after our flight landed in the middle of the night. Ruth adds some extra special touches to her rental! She was extra kind and accommodating to us! I definitely recommend this rental!

Quick and Easy

Made a last minute reservation for my family visiting from the interior. The place was very clean and had all the amenities. The owners provided clear instructions for access and followed up to make sure we were able to find what we needed. I will always check there first for future rental availability.

Fairbanks Hanger house

My family and I stayed summer of 2022. The house is very clean and unique with the airplane hanger down stairs. Don’t let the location bother you cuz once you’re inside it feel like home. You can cook which is my favorite. I have a big family that loves to eat and cooking can save us money and eating healthy at the same time. Will definitely stay here again if available in our next fairbanks adventure.

I am so glad you had a nice stay at our home. Yes, the location is surrounded by a bush-plane community, making this a unique and fun place to stay. The kitchen is fully stocked, along with spices and all the tools/ gadgets needed to make it home away from home. We look forward to hosting you again in the near future. I hope on your next visit we can achieve a 5 star review. I always strive for perfection, ~Ruth

Winter Wonderland for Texans

The property is as pictured and we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Snow for the season started the day we arrived and continued through our weeks stay, making it a winter wonderland for Texans escaping the triple didgets. Loved looking out the window to the airplane in the yard that was surrounded by snow. Nice walk to where float planes take off and land. Like the single coffee capsules since I don't drink a lot of coffee. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

Perfect spot!

We were able to see the lights from the balcony every single night we were there! I wanted something that didn’t have too much light pollution but also wasn’t too far from downtown. I did wish it had a second bathroom but I booked it knowing there was only going to be one, so I can’t really knock them for that. Just something to consider

The home of Fairbanks!

Originally I booked this place for 2 nights until I realized I made a mistake and was suppose to be for 3 nights. I reached out to Ruth and made that change for me without a hassle! This home was amazing! Everything was so easy here! Checking in and checking out were a piece of cake! It has everything in the kitchen and it’s just so beautiful and cozy! This place is located in a nice quiet neighborhood and the views for the windows and porch are beautiful!

Bedding was super cozy. Some issues with the circuit breaker tripping while using the washing machine. Finally figured out that u plugging the dehumidifier did the trick. A little odd to have such bright lights coming front the hangar with no shades on our side when we were accessing the laundry room.

So glad you had a nice stay! Glad you figured out that the breaker was overloaded. If you stay with us again and would like the lights off around the hangar at night -please reach out and I would be happy to turn them off for you.
