Temperatures in the frigid interior of Alaska can get down to -40°F, but it's all worth it when the Northern Lights come out to play #alaska #fairbanks #red #northernlights #aurora #auroraborealis #usa #america #colorful #nikon #weekend #nature #theoutdoors #getoutdoors #earth #planetearth #photographer #landscape #landscapephotography #desktop #green #snow #icy #winter #cold #adventure

7.6/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)
The hotel looks old. Bathtub has a broken faucet that is terribly hard to turn off. No fridge in the room. The room is clean and they kept windows open whenever they can so the air is fresh inside. Parking is hard to find especially during the weekend.

The cabin was beautiful and perfect for the two of us. Everything was lovely.We got a little lost on the way there, but Maria guided us and we were able to find it. It’s important to have her personal contact number in case something like that happens.It was a complete great adventure.

Absolutely incredible!
Wow, this place is so cool! The details and effort they put in are amazing. I'll definitely be back! I'm not sure about using VRBO again, though. Luckily, the host was super accommodating, and our stay was perfect. Thanks!

10/10 Exceptional! (106 reviews)
We loved the cabin when we stayed here a few years ago, and we were excited to return! The cabin was the perfect spot… far enough away from town to hopefully see the northern lights, but close enough for day trips to surrounding areas.
