Very friendly staff. Quiet location. Beautiful property. Cooking facilities were awesome!
We liked the room-darkening curtains. WiFi was great. Nice library of books and travel books.
Decor was very nice.
Views of the woods and trails nearby were awesome.
It was amazing!! Euphoric! The drive up there is a bit sketchy this time of the year but is absolutely worth it!! As you turn off the highway you drive down a private driveway through the trees to the beautiful lodge nestled in the middle of the woods. The cabins are comfortable and warm!

Adequate accommodations in a spectacular spot. Near perfect, cost efficient spot to chase an opportunity to view the northern lights in the Fairbanks area.
The place is so private and tranquil. I love that kitchen is available and can cook your meals during the stay. The property is very beautiful and got to see the Aurora 3x during my stay.
This lodge was a shared space cabin style but also quite private. Private bathroom and sleeping area. Shared dining, living room and kitchen. Our fav part was the gorgeous cabin kitchen breakfast laid out on pretty rustic dishes. It is off the beaten path and not touristy. We felt like we were being hosted by friends. Gorgeous property too.
Clean, comfortable, extremely friendly owners. Fully stocked kitchen to use to prepare meal if you choose. Off the beaten path for a true in the woods peaceful Alaskan experience. Was an amazing stay 😁
Northern Sky Lodge is a beautifully quiet and peaceful place to stay. Convenient to Fairbanks and not far from Danali. Host Rex and Jess were friendly and able to share information on the area. It was nice to meet other travelers in the shared large kitchen and dining area.
Surprisingly a warm and welcoming place!
I like the common area best especially the kitchen! They provide all the stuff you need.
Very comfortable staying!
