"This house is ideally located between Fairbanks and Chena Hot Springs. Everything is as it appears in the photos. Clean and comfortable. Wintertime in Alaska is something to experience. Thank you Monique and Russell for the opportunity to enjoy it once again. "

"Very sweet cabin perfect for a couple or small family. Felt very clean and that’s a frequent concern of mine with any vacation rental. A lot of towels and extra blankets and pillows. Sauna was an amazing bonus (put in right before we arrived). Host is incredibly fast to respond and provided suggestions for activities which was nice. Stocked well in the kitchen with dishes, spices, coffee, etc. I would suggest checking it out before any food shopping. Great location. Remote but easy drive to activities, downtown North Pole, and airport. We saw moose tracks in the front yard one morning so keep an eye out! So cool! No dishwasher (wasn’t much of an issue for two) and laundry was noted as private use only. May need to dig out/find fire pit in the snow but that’s just part of being in Alaska. Anything more than one bag of garbage has to be taken to the dump. We had a car so not a huge deal. Again, part of being in a small remote location which we loved. Would recommend renting a car if you’re ok driving in snow. Driveway was plowed. Really loved this cabin. Would 100% recommend and go back. "

"Nancy went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Great location close to Chena Lake and cozy cabin with everything you need."

"Great stay."

"Place was exactly as described. Hot tub was great. One thing to note- the stove in the pictures was not a wood burning stove, its run on oil (was looking forward to burning wood). It kept the place nice and toasty though.Communication was also great- we had an issue with the wifi and that was fixed quickly."

"The property and host were very welcoming. We had quick responses from the host to questions and were very comfortable throughout our stay. Location was also great! "

"We did a winter trip with outside temps from about 10F at the start to -25F at the end. House held the set temp without a problem and we never ran out of hot water for our group of 9 people. The garage has been converted to living space, so the rental car was outside and plugged in to keep the engine warm. There were plenty of sheets, blankets, and towels for the group. The wifi went out due to a power issue, and the owner stopped by within 2 hours to reset it. The battery light started flashing on the door lock, and again they came within a couple of hours to replace the lock battery. Overall communication with the owner and response was great. The only 2 things we would have liked added was a cake pan to bake a cake, and some more options for clothes storage as much of our stuff had to stay in suitcases on the floor. Overall a great townhouse and a great stay!"

"Staff is super helpful and great to talk to! They recommended me food and sightseeing options that I loved."

"The communication with the host was excellent from booking through departure. The cabin was perfect for our family of four and has everything you will need. The view from the property is gorgeous and would be perfect any time of year. On a clear night, it felt like you were sitting among the stars and not under them. Additionally- You will not find a better sled dog experience in all of Alaska!! It was simply the best!"
