It was clean and nicely stocked with snacks which was a very nice bonus. Great place to stay. The stairs are a little short so you have to be careful on them.

Great Retreat

I so enjoyed staying in this charming little cabin. The kitchen was well stocked, having the ability to do laundry was convenient, and it is located near everything, but is tucked away and quiet. The stairs up to the bedroom are a little shallow, so use caution if you are unsteady on your feet, but the bedroom was large and very comfortable.

Wonderful!

What an amazing last minute find! My family and I had to make a quick overnight to Fairbanks and found this listing. The cabin was precious. It was in quiet neighborhood but still close to everything in town. Thank you, Tera, for a wonderful stay!!

Doing Laundry

It was lovely. I rent them instead of goimg to the laundry mat. It costs half of what it would to pay for laundry. I am thankful and loved the hospitality and communication.

Lovely place needing two specific repairs/adjustments:1) Despite the thermostat saying it was off, the heat was on all night. It made it uncomfortably hot in the upstairs bedroom. 2) The sleeper sofa mattress is really bad and our daughter opted to just sleep on the couch. The sofa mattress should be replaced or not listed as a bed.
