WATERFRONT Unique Hangar Home Runway Pilot Paradise Jacuzzi-Aurora View

It doesn’t get anymore Alaskan than this—your own 3-bedroom, waterfront airplane hangar home! The hangar home is located on a private lake and airstrip. Watch floatplanes take off and land right from the living room window! You have your own beach, will get the full Alaskan experience, yet only minutes from town and all the local attractions.
The space
New construction, industrial chic decor loaded with amenities: Wi-Fi, 55” Roku HDTV, luxurious sheets, high-end memory foam beds, towels & bath products. A nice patio facing the water, propane barbecue, a sled & 2 sets of snowshoes are available for your use. A Keurig and coffee maker pot with a selection of coffee, tea & hot chocolate are complimentary. All basic utensils & cookware needed to prepare a home-cooked meal are included. The entire space is bright, open and airy, with views of Alaskan planes and the Chena Hills beckoning you outside. Airplane parking available for a fly-in guests, tie downs available on site.
Guest access
The hangar home has its own separate outdoor entrance—the entire three bedroom apartment is available for guest use. The rest of the hangar is not available for guest use, it is where we store our personal aircraft.
Other things to note
8% Borough Bed Tax included in the total price

*We have small children ourselves, so have tried to make our place family-friendly. There is a pack-n-play, high chair, a basket of kids toys, puzzles and books and a few pre-teen chapter books for your convenience.

This area is generally very peaceful and quiet. However, as it is an aviation-centered community, there is the potential for airplane noise—planes coming and going sometimes as late as 10 pm. Please let me know if for some reason you need quiet earlier than this on any certain night and I will try to let my husband know to not go flying on that night

*Unsanctioned parties will result in an additional $500 penalty fee. If the apartment is left extremely dirty and needs deep cleaning, there will be an additional $200 cleaning fee assessed.

Late check out- we have a 10 minute grace period, after 10 minutes we charge $50 per half an hour until check out or double the nightly rate after one hour. Please be courteous of our cleaners and unless you have arranged a late check out or made other arrangements with us, check out is at 11 AM prompt.

*We do have outdoor cameras on the property that record both audio and video. They are only monitored to ensure registered guests arrive safely and in the event of any issues. They may not be covered or disabled

*We love animals, but we do not allow pets in the apartment. If you have a service animal, please answer the following questions legally allowed by the ADA regarding your service dog.
1. Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?
2. What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

*We ask a $50/dog/visit pet fee for service animals. Guest remains liable for any and all damage caused by people or dog.
Under the ADA, service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents using these devices. In that case, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective controls. The animal must be under control of the handler at all times therefore never left alone at any time.
If we discover a guest has misrepresented a pet as a service animal, we reserve the right to seek financial restitution, report fraudulent claims to government authorities and to evict the guest(s) without further notice. In the latter case, there will be no right to a refund for unused rent.The space

One of the best VRBO stays. The house had everything we needed and was well laid out for everyone's comfort. We enjoyed watching planes land and take off and the ducks in the water. The beds and pillows are comfortable and the kitchen had everything we were looking for. It was close to University of Alaska Fairbanks and the Pump House restaurant, but was very quiet and peaceful.

Would give this VRBO 10 stars if that was possible!!! Everything was perfect and the hosts really put a lot of thought into making sure everything in the home was comfortable and functional. My husband has a bad back and is very picky about beds, and this one was firm and super comfortable. The location is super central to anything you would want to do in Fairbanks. It is also super quiet and very picturesque. We would definitely stay here again and have already recommended it to friends!

Great house. Roomy, clean, modern. Great process. The only thing that could have made the stay better was the weather, but we knew that booking in April. I can only imagine how much fun it would be with fun plane activity!
