About this property
The Aurora House (Fairbanks, AK)
Welcome to The Aurora, an epic stay where the Northern Lights are visible on just about every clear night from September through April. During the summer months, watch the midnight sun set right in front of your living room window.
Nestled on a mountain 20 minutes from Fairbanks and away from all light pollution, The Aurora is the perfect place to unwind and experience the beauty of Alaska.
"Wow! The views from this place are amazing and the inside looks brand new!" -Marie, May 2023
"The location of this place was awesome for us. Just far enough out of town that it was quiet and the light pollution was way down. It was close enough to Fairbanks though that we could run into town for anything we wanted." -Trenton

The first bedroom has a brand new queen over queen bunk bed perfect for those traveling with children. The second bedroom has a new deluxe king bed where you can snuggle in to watch your favorite show on the 50" TV.
The newly designed gourmet kitchen has two separate prep sinks and a large cabinet pantry to store all of your Fred Meyer and Costco groceries for your stay. The kitchen is open to the living room making for easy conversation while you cook up your Alaskan feast. Cozy up to to the wood burning stove while you look out at the Alaska wilderness. NEW ADDITION: A barrel sauna with a panoramic window has been added to the deck. Warm up in the chilly evenings and gaze out on a view of the valley while the Northern Lights dance in the sky.
"Has all amenities, true high speed internet, a large deck with some areas facing north.. and most important to me was the Blaze King fireplace."-Spencer, March 2023
The second level is where you will find the primary suite complete with a luxurious new king bed with a second professionally-designed bathroom and your very own shower wand. The loft area is a perfect place for kids to sip cocoa, play shuffleboard, and watch the Northern Lights out the expansive windows.
"Beautiful, clean, relaxing retreat!" -Andres, March 2023
Outdoor living is spacious with a large deck for enjoying the endless summer sun complete with outdoor dining table.
