    Please, with the way flights have been cancelled or changed at the last moment, and other factors which come up beyond your control. we strongly suggest that you buy travelers insurance in order to secure your funds, in case of a last minute cancellation. We have been very gracious over the last 2 years and have given refunds when we were not required to, but we cannot do this any longer. We are holding to a firm cancellation policy in the future.

    A well-crafted apartment in the quiet & solace of surrounding woods, yet within 8 to 10 minutes drive from grocery stores, or airport, and only 3 miles from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. This is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath luxury suite of rooms, private & perfect for 4 people if they are 2 couples or a family. It is the whole Separate ground floor of the house, 800 sq ft. This property is at the same location as one other smaller apartment suite, # 1523206, on the same 3 acres of property in the other house. In addition, this is a fantastic location to see the auroras, when they are active, as they arc right over the property, when it is clear out and the aurora activity is moderate. We will make sure your stay is very comfortable, and provide you with the information you need, in order to book activities or tour around town and the area.

    Four guys working 14 hours a day for 2 weeks. Rooms were great. Had enough room for mattresses we brought for the work contract. Carol and Les are very accommodating and made our stay very comfortable. We will be back renting both properties if available next year. Felt like home and enjoyed there company.

    We booked because of the reviews about Carol
    Myself and two friends set about to travel to Fairbanks to see the northern lights. We reviewed many listings but the reviews about Carol and Les were outstanding - and were 100% on point. Warm, homemade cookies awaited us when we arrived. Staying in the apartment below their home was almost like staying in their home. There were all of the cooking utensils, spices, condiments, etc that you would have in your own home - probably more! There was aluminum foil, ziplocs, etc which almost is never found in a vrbo. Prior to our trip Carol was extremely helpful about planning our things to do. While we were there she gave us guidance and recommendations as well. Our trip could not have been more perfect and I believe it had a lot to do with Carol and Wes. I will be back in the summertime, and have already recommended this property to friends.

    Just like being at home!
    We had a wonderful time spending a week at Aspen Woods, we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Location and hosts were perfect! We had no plans while there, just enjoyed the scenery one day at a time. Our daughter has severe food allergies and the convenience of have all kitchen necessities makes our vacation much more enjoyable

    More than we asked for!
    Host was so welcoming, and chalet was more than well-equipped and very comfortable. Even before we arrived, we received helpful information and links to every imaginable area attraction. We were there to catch the aurora, and host shared live camera app, allowing us to remain inside and warm while waiting for activity to show! Visible right on property! Host has 2 rentals on property. Chalet shares main building with host’s home, which is the story above chalet.

    Able to take advantage of all winter activities in Fairbanks
    We had a great time. Very friendly hosts. She recommended great businesses where we experienced dog sledding, reindeer ranch, Chena Hot Springs, and snowmobiling. It snowed 5 nights so we did not have a great chance to see the northern lights. The 2 nights that were available the lights were not as bright as some of the pictures. I guess that means we have to come back...

    Best Hosts In Every Way!
    Les and Carol are very kind people and their home is lovingly cared for, warm (and that’s saying something in -35 degrees Fahrenheit), the beds are comfortable, the space is not large but it has everything one needs when you come in out of the cold. It is located close to town, but surrounded by trees, making it feel like you are far from everything and makes the lights easy to see when they are happening. Everything about our stay was a joy and a pleasure. Carol was in regular contact before, during and after our vacation. We were greeted with delicious home made cookies and lovely flowers. The first morning Carol came down and gave us all the information we could possibly need to enjoy Fairbanks and the surrounding area. In addition to the excellent communication and wonderful home, their motion detector alerting you of the northern lights activity made it so easy to stay inside out of the cold and know when to layer on those clothes and get out there to catch the lights. The system alerts you that motion is taking place and shows a quick video of the activity so you know when it’s time to get out there to enjoy the show. It works perfectly. We were able to stay in bed until it was the exact time to get dressed and get out there. The best viewing spot was right outside at the top of the driveway. The home’s location outside of town means the city lights do not distract from the lights in the sky. We went to Fairbanks to see the lights and boy oh boy did we get a show! In all, everything about our stay with Carol & Les was all we could hope for. We were welcomed, warm and delighted with everything around us. If we ever return to Fairbanks the only place we would consider staying is with Les and Carol. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!!
