The Park Bus BnB

The Park Bus is a retired Denali National Park shuttle. It has been extensively remodeled to provide a comfortable and memorable place to stay while enjoying your Alaskan adventure. Admire the panoramic view of the night sky while comfortably seated inside. Conveniently located between Fairbanks and the Chena Hot Springs Resort. The Park Bus is a unique Alaskan experience you will never forget.

Live like an Alaskan!!! This bus is equipped with an outhouse and a water dispenser. Showers are available for purchase down the road. The kitchen is fully stocked and we provide our farm fresh eggs, honey from our bees, bread, tea, and coffee.

The sleeping arrangements are a full size bed, a fold down couch for two, and a bench that can accommodate one more person, for a total of 5.

On our Alaskan homestead, the bus is located on a knoll with a open view to the north, which is perfect for aurora viewing. There is a fire pit with some fire wood provided, more available for purchase. There are foot trails on the property for snowshoeing, skiing, and berry picking. Private but easily accessible.
