Lovely place to stay

We found the Bungalow when looking for a place to stay in Fairbanks. The property was as described. Carol was very welcoming, greeting us upon our arrival. The cookies she made were delicious and just the perfect touch. Very comfortable place to stay for a couple. Close to Fairbanks but felt like the middle of the woods at the some time. Husband say# he would stay there again to get more cookies. :)

Exceeded expectations in all dimensions!

From booking to checkout, everything was seamless. Carol is a warm, attentive host who ensured we had all the necessary details about the property and local attractions as soon as we confirmed our reservation. She also checked in with us during our stay to ensure we were comfortable.The house is cozy, well-equipped, and easily accessible by road. It’s conveniently located near great restaurants and supermarkets, yet far enough from the city to enjoy Aurora views right from the property.We had a wonderful time staying with Carol and will definitely return!

Fantastic hosts/location

My husband and I came to Fairbanks to see the Northern Lights. We chose this bungalow due to it’s location and positive reviews. The reviewers did NOT lie.It is located in Ester, outside of the city lights but very convenient to the airport, shopping and restaurants. The owners were exceptional hosts. We have stayed at 15 VRBO properties. This by far is the number 1 place we have ever stayed. The hosts suggested things to do in the area that was very helpful.The web cam showed us when to go outside. The northern lights go right over this property. We got amazing photos several nights in a row.

Beautiful Location

This place is woodsy and isolated, but yet close to everything. Very clean, and well stocked with everything you would need. We arrived by train from Denali. We went straight to the airport to pick up a rent a car. Short drive from airport to the suite. We had been in Alaska for almost a month. This was our last stay before flying home from Fairbanks. We were exhausted and slept a lot when we first arrived. Bed was very comfortable. Carol even left some homemade cookies hanging in a bag on the door handle. They were very good. I depend on reviews and read many before renting a place. I try to write a very fair and detailed review. We did have a hard time finding a place for two very large suitcases. We ended up putting them in the living room on the coffee table. The water system is a holding tank with a large capacity.They must replenish it. The water pump kicks on anytime water is used and is very loud! We have rented through many sites over the years. We have always been notified when cameras are on the property. We don't have a problem with it, but we were surprised to see several. I understand they need to monitor their property. We even have cameras on our home. There is one camera at the front door looking right at you. It made me feel uncomfortable because it was so close. The camera looks like it's set up to see you come/go at front door and getting in/out of car. With all of that being said, it's still an absolutely beautiful place!

This was a beautifully constructed bungalow just outside of town. Everything about the interior was top grade and thoughtfully planned by a skilled craftsman. It was comfortable with nice linens and the furnishings and art work were much appreciated. The hosts immediately greeted us and made us feel welcomed on their expansive property. The outdoor bbq and deck were a lovely place to cook a meal and relax with a beer. While our accommodations were on a shared property with the hosts, we had complete privacy and space. We look forward to staying here again.

A Nice suite beyond your imagination

This is a beautiful and super comfortable suite. Firstly, its location is convenient, and you can go to the most famous restaurants and places in 10 minutes unless you go to Chena. The property inside the suite is clean and looks like a new suite, also better than a 4-star hotel. There is always warm water and an air conditioner. There are too many advantages to list. It is also an excellent place to watch Aurora and spend a vacation. If I have more spring break time, I will spend more time here. Last but not least, Carol and Les are very friendly and Enthusiastic. I am so glad to choose their suite and know them.

Wonderful experience

This was the perfect place for our trip to Fairbanks! Carol was such a wonderful host, very easy to communicate with before and during our stay and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience! We took several of her recommendations on things to do while in town, like where to go for snowmobiling/ice fishing and the best place for aurora viewing, and we truly had the best time! The property itself was BEAUTIFUL and the location was perfect, very short drive from the airport and close to town but just out of the city limits so we were able to spot the aurora from the house on our first night! The suite was very clean, well stocked with toiletries/towels/kitchen supplies etc that made our stay super comfortable. We’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone coming to the Fairbanks area. Thanks so much for having us!
