Aurora is a private 3 acre retreat designed to deliver a true Alaska experience from the moment you arrive. Located just 8 miles from the airport, the property sits above the winter inversion layer, meaning clearer air and improved potential for viewing the Northern Lights.
Every detail of this stay has been intentionally built around what we would want if we were visiting Alaska for the first time after years of dreaming, watching documentaries, and studying the landscape. This is not just a place to stay. Aurora is a fully curated experience.
The property features a heated outdoor Aurora dome for immersive night sky viewing, along with a cozy game and movie room designed for relaxed evenings after a day of exploring.
Your stay includes a thoughtfully crafted 5 day Alaska focused meal plan with recipes built around local ingredients. You will also have access to a custom Aurora hot cocoa recipe, our signature Aurora Glow cocktail, and complete daily shopping lists to make everything simple and enjoyable.
Our guidebook is built to remove guesswork. It covers every season, major events, and lesser known local spots, with both self guided options and curated experiences clearly laid out so you can explore at your own pace.
Sleeping arrangements are designed for comfort and flexibility. The primary bedroom is a loft suite accessed by a custom spiral staircase, featuring a king bed, a private loveseat, and a dedicated workspace. The main floor bedroom includes a full bed that works well for a solo guest, kids, or a cozy couple. The daylight basement entertainment room includes a cloud style sofa that converts into a queen bed, with a full bathroom located just across the hallway.
This is a place to slow down, experience Alaska intentionally, and enjoy a setting that has been carefully designed from start to finish.
