Wonderful Home

I've stayed at this property multiple times and each time has been excellent. Home is clean, amenities are wonderful, check in and out simple and fast, hosts responsive to any questions or needs. It's such a quiet and serene place to stay but close to anything you might need. Definitely recommend and hope to stay here on other visits to Fairbanks.

Incredible Fairbanks AK

We had an incredible time in Fairbanks! The house was in the perfect location. We had easy access to Shopping, and all the roads to see the sites and tours! The house had great views off the back porch of the Lake and a Paddle Boat that was on the other side and frozen and fresh snow!! It was just an amazing trip!!! A real bucket list trip!!

Beautiful Fairbanks Alaska

Although it was -48 when we arrived the week got better and better. Our host had our beautiful frozen river front home nice and toasty. Snow machines on the river were cool. One morning we awoke to a grunting noise and a Moose was right in front of us. Outstanding place to stay and visit.

Amazing Place!

Owners obviously care about their guests right down to the Kleenex box left in 2 rooms! Gorgeous view - right on the Chema River, overlooks two small islands and directly across the river an old large paddle boat which still loos attractive and a perfect spot for an evening glass of wine! Inside, spotless, I gave wife and child the bedroom I took the pull out bed from the couch and it was pretty comfortable. Appliances new, garage and everything spotless and comfortable all modern loved it and miss it already!

Very cute place! Good Communication!

Loved being right on the river. The unit was very clean and the owners were so accommodating. The gas grill was unusable but we worked around that and just used the kitchen stove. We didn’t have great weather, but no one’s fault there! If we ever go to Fairbanks in the future, I would rent this unit again. I loved the wall lights in the bedroom so much, we ran to Home Depot and purchased a set for our log home in Vermont!

Stayed twice

This was our second stay here. Worked out great as a place to leave/return to Fairbanks when exploring the Arctic Circle area. The condo was perfectly clean and extremely well stocked with every amenity we needed. Unfortunately, rain kept us from enjoying the river from the cute patio, but on the flip side, the garage was a great plus for unloading in the rain! The only suggestion we could make would be to add black-out shades in the bedroom for us southerners, but this was one of the nicest experiences we have had. It is the complete package!

Heated Garage Made All the Difference!

Perfect size for 2 people, so cozy! We loved looking right out at the river, especially with the frozen-in-place old steamboat! My son had the bedroom with the closed door and loved it; one night he recorded a moose emerging from the woods across the river on his time-lapse video! He found the bed super comfortable. I need a SUPER hard bed, and the sofa bed was firm but barely okay. The hosts were really helpful, including coming out to help me get an enormous Chevy Suburban in the garage the first night—and helping me realize I soon could do it myself! AND when we missed our flight and needed to find a place to stay one more night, Tera kindly let us stay in another of their properties, also with a heated garage. The bathroom and shower here were great, and I loved the attached extra room/closet! There were no other closets or dressers, but it was enough, b/c we had a GREAT washer and dryer in the apartment that helped me bring less from home and wash often. The heated garage was the main reason I chose this place, b/c I have Reynaud’s syndrome, and it made the winter weather both doable and enjoyable! Thank you SO much, Tera! I would definitely stay in this place again!!

Chena River House

We had a wonderful time and the location was great. It had everything we needed except a full length mirror would have been nice. We were in town for a wedding and it was difficult to actually see how we looked before we left. Also a small ottoman to pull up to the couch and put our feet up would have been great. We enjoyed watching the kayaks and boat traffic. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us!
