We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The log cabin is incredibly cozy, beautifully decorated, and spotless. It felt like a true home away from home. Beyond the space itself, our host, Carl, was amazing and so accommodating—he made it incredibly easy for us to arrange a last-minute extension. We didn’t want to leave!

Thank you for choosing the cabin. It was a pleasure to meet you!, If you ever make it back to Fairbanks, I hope you'll stay again! 😊
A beautiful property in an idyllic setting. Tranquil. Everything worked. The one item that failed - the TV - was replaced within hours by the host. Good, strong WiFi. The property was clean and functional. The host exemplary. Rapid and positive responses to communication. The location facilitated a on e in a lifetime experience for my husband and I.

Mark and Todd, thank you for choosing to stay at the cabin! I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to Alaska, and if you ever make it back to Fairbanks, you're welcome on Alaska Range Lane!
This cabin is in the perfect location. It is nestled in the woods right off a main road outside of town, yet only a few minutes' drive to everything you need - groceries, restaurants, shopping, etc. It's decorated very nicely and super clean. The beds were comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. We were able to stream our tv apps with no lagging. Plenty of parking space. We will definitely stay here again if we make it back up to Fairbanks. Highly recommend.

Leslie,
Thank you for choosing the cabin! I'd be happy to have you stay again.
Thanks!
Carl
Carl, the host, was amazing. I suggested to him that the kitchen could use a plastic spatula and a cookie sheet. An hour later these items were delivered to the door. He was very accommodating. This rustic cabin was perfect for us. Great for 4 people. It is nestled back in the trees….. so cozy. Fifteen minutes from Walmart, movie theater, restaurants. I plan on returning to Fairbanks next year and will definitely stay at this VRBO again.
