Great stay and a great place to bring our dogs. Loved being able to let them run around on the property. Cabin was as advertised and in a great location just north of town with easy access to amenities. Jacob was very welcoming and responsive to any questions we had. Will for sure try to stay here in the future!

Jacob was extremely helpful providing recommendations for things to do, places to visit and sightseeing adventures! He truly wanted to make sure our first visit to Alaska was memorable and fun! What a great host to have! Cabin is as described, cozy, comfortable and close to down town Fairbanks. Thank you so much, Jacob! We truly enjoyed ourselves!
