Oct 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We decided to celebrate our 25th anniversary in AK to see the Northern Lights. This was our second but longest stay. What a wonderful location! Great hostess! After asking about GF restaurants, she provided some GF items for our “starter kit”. It was wonderful and much appreciated. She asked if we wanted to be informed of when the Northern lights were out (which was our very last night there) and alerted us. The view from the upstairs deck was amazing and super convenient. So peaceful and quiet. We even saw a mother moose and her 2 calves eating leaves and grass in the front and side of the house! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d0086838-4ffd-4b72-8f79-18ba5b81c8a9-1760218952324.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8fe88cad-6b6c-48e4-95a7-040282fa343a-1760218948589.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9363a38f-3386-4e05-adce-afa1bdccf0ac-1760218951606.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/542566e2-61dd-4c55-aa96-4ce6729b9796-1760218952225.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jennifer O.

She truly wants her guests to have an outstanding experience. The house is full of treasures. It’s perfectly located just outside Fairbanks. It’s quiet, but convenient to everything. We even saw the Northern Lights right from the house. Stay here if you’re in the area. ##### Eric M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leslie C. Mar 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Winter wonderland vacation The Gilmore house is one of the best places we've ever stayed while traveling and there are lots of reasons why: - The view is epic and solitary - The house is warm, comfy, charming, and full of fascinating historic Alaskan details. - The house is stocked with amenities and gear that helped us make the most out of our adventures. - The sledding hills on the property were incredibly fun - The hosts are especially kind and thoughtful! Overall 10/10 truly, we couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our time in Fairbanks and see the aurora! ##### Leslie C. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle M.

The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. A wondeful place to decompress and relax. Laura stopped over to make sure everything was okay and was nice enough to share some farm fresh eggs with us which made some very delicious breakfast. Definitely would stay again the next time we're in Valdez. ##### Michelle M.

The house was very clean, and well prepared for guests. The beds were comfortable, and all of the services working properly. I would be very happy to stay at Gilmore house again when I visit Faribanks. ##### Dblitz70 Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mackenzie C.

Laura was super helpful, providing resources before we arrived and checking in via text through our stay. Laura and Martin live next door so are available if needed and very friendly. The house has loads of charm and thoughtful touches. For example, we stayed during a few warm days with lots of sun coming through the lovely windows - thankfully fans were available to keep things cool in each bedroom. ##### Mackenzie C.

This is a most delightful cottage in a great settings - just 15-20 minutes drive from major stores of Fairbanks, yet very quite and secluded. Beautifully decorated with a lot of fascinating historical pieces that we loved to explore learning about Alaska. The hosts were most gracious and helpful - the best and most caring hosts that we have ever met in our many years of renting vacation houses! Highly recommend! ##### Alexandra K.

The views were incredible, with just the right amount of rustic charm. We were all so comfortable and happy there. The best part of the stay was our incredible hosts who made sure we had everything we needed from snacks and meal starters on arrival to links to activities and tips for seeing the aurora. They went above and beyond in every way and we can’t thank them enough. Hopefully we’ll return soon and stay at Gilmore House again! ##### Allison W.
