The cabin is so enchanting it belongs in a children’s book. It is beautifully decorated and fully supplied with basic necessities, coffee, tea, etc. It is surrounded by trees but still has enough open space to see the Northern lights at night. During our stay, they were very active and I saw them every night from the comfort of the loveseat. The hosts are very attentive, and the property caretaker had everything clean and set up when we arrived. We felt welcome as soon as we opened the door. The area is quiet, so you can expect to relax and sleep well at night.

The Space: The cabin was easy to access by car and surrounded by tall, snow-dusted trees that felt magical during my winter stay. Inside, it was beautifully decorated, cozy, extremely clean, and spacious. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking tools, spices, and thoughtful extras. There were also useful touches like de-icing spray, bear spray, flashlights, and brochures for local adventures. The Host: Andy was incredibly helpful from booking through my entire stay, sharing winter tips, packing advice, and local recommendations. When my airline lost my luggage, he went above and beyond by lending me clothes to sleep in, as well as suggesting places to buy essentials, and checking in on me until my bags arrived. Although I didn’t see the northern lights, I really enjoyed the peaceful vibe the cabin provided and I felt safe and cared for throughout my stay. My Top 3 Highlights: Pagoda Chinese Restaurant & Bar University of Alaska Museum of the North Chena Hot Springs Resort

A Perfect Arctic Retreat: Sauna, Aurora, and Ultimate Coziness! Our stay at this cabin was absolutely magical and exceeded all expectations. The cabin itself is the definition of cozy—warm, incredibly comfortable, and beautifully decorated. It had everything we needed. The highlight was definitely the private sauna. After a day out in the snow, relaxing in the sauna was pure bliss. And then, the most incredible bonus: we were lucky enough to witness the northern lights dancing right from the property! The combination of the sauna and the aurora made for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The host was outstanding. The check-in instructions were exceptionally detailed and clear, making our arrival smooth and effortless. he was also very responsive and kind throughout our stay. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect Arctic getaway. Thank you for such a wonderful and memorable experience. We highly recommend this cabin and hope to return one day!
