At times billeting on base is not available for military family's. This rental offered everything needed for a short or long vacation. Located near the College, Farmers market, Pioneer Park, Fairbanks Airport and eateries. Distance to Eielson 35-40 min. drive. It was great! ##### Christina Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Seoyeun Y. Mar 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome!

The place is very comfortable with cozy beds. I liked how the morning sun came in the kitchen windows during the cold days. I also enjoyed that it the house is just on the outside of Fairbanks and gives you a country feel. Oh and this might sound strange but there are plenty of pots to cook with! Thanks ##### julius c.
