About this property

Entire place

Northstar Borealis Lights

Large quiet studio 11.5 miles from downtown Fairbanks. View the northern lights with no interference of city lights. (October- end of March) Moose and fox can sometimes be seen outside the large window in this spacious room. We encourage guests to rent a vehicle for transportation as Uber is expensive and alaska has a lot to enjoy. Gold panning, restaurant and convenience store within 2 miles.

Homey room under a dark sky
The room was large, comfortable, with dun decorations and close to things to do. The host is friendly and there when you need him but who otherwise will leave you alone to do your thing. Will try to stay at again if I can return.

After a week in rustic cabins, Northstar Borealis Lights felt like a castle. Comfortable beds, plenty of space, and kitchen items (plasticwear, coffee and tea, even oatmeal) that were unexpected. Well worth the price - our best "deal" of our trip!

This was a beautiful place to stay - spacious, well situated, clean and affordable. The taxidermy animal heads gave the space a great local flavor and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely try to book this place again if I get a chance to come back to the Fairbanks area. Thanks for a great stay!

Great launching and viewing locale
Loved the location north of town away from city lights - with a large window through which to watch for Northern Lights. Hosts were kind enough to notify us very late one night when lights were active, since we hadn't seen them yet. Easy to explore greater Fairbanks in all directions - and we did! Warm floors for cold nights, super comfortable bed, spacious and complete accommodations. Thanks Jade and Mark for everything!

Mark and Jade were the most gracious hosts ever in our travels around the world. The information they gave us about the area was top of the world. The room was spectacular and roomy. Everything is an easy drive from your room. Don't miss this spot.

Absolutely LOVED this place!! The owners are super sweet and very helpful. I took the wrong turn and ended up having to call them at 2am and he gave me Directions on how to get to the correct spot. Helped me unload. Place is very clean and rustic. I loved the big windows and heated floor! Very quiet place if you are looking for a little bit of seclusion but not too far away from town. Saw a little bit of wildlife out there as well. Will definitely book again!

Perfect spot to see the northern lights!
I can't say enough good things about Jade & Mark's place! It was the perfect size space for my 15 y/o daughter and I. The bed was comfy and we were plenty warm when it was single digits outside. We even named the moose Steven lol :) We were close enough to Fairbanks to go there for lunch, but far enough away to watch the auroras dancing in the sky, so the location is perfect. Mark even came to make sure we saw the lights the last night we were there! They were very accommodating when our travel plans changed and allowed us to stay an extra night (and we felt terrible when we overslept and had to rush to make sure they had time to clean before their next guests arrived!) Overall, if you're looking for a cozy spot to stay that's just out of the city, but still close to drive in for food, and has a giant window to watch the northern lights so you don't have to sit outside and freeze, then this is the place to be!!

Awesome place!
So comfy I didn’t want to leave - and the weather did not cooperate so I hung out there a lot. Nice comfy bed & bedding. Spacious room with everything you’d need. Comfy recliner & sofa. Great satellite tv options. Warm & you don’t even need to go out if you’re looking to see Aurora - big picture window facing perfect direction. Very nice hosts, very responsive. Nice country setting but close to several eateries & gas station. And if you wanted to head back to Fairbanks options, it’s a short beautiful drive. Highly recommend
