This makes it a short drive to places of interest in the city limits including the airport. Drives to the Aurora Borealis viewing locations we went to outside of Fairbanks’ city lights is approximately 45 minutes. The property owner quickly responded to our questions. Overall a great stay. ##### Mark F. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew L. May 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious house We stayed for one night before our Princess cruise. There were seven of us and we didn't even use half of the available beds in this house. The kids enjoyed the basketball court. Big kitchen, lots of seating in the common areas, giant TV, high speed internet, and only 2 miles from airport. Host was also able to accommodate a later checkout since the cruise didn't start until later the next day. ##### Andrew L. Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karli R.
