Would definitely stay again!

We had a great stay with light activity. Just far enough outside town to not feel crowded but close enough to run in for takeout easily. The property is great. Our inquiry for a pack and play was accommodated which was much appreciated!! We had 3 month old and 2.5 year old. I didn’t fully trust my toddler by himself on the stairs since they are a bit narrow. The basics for cooking (oil, spices) are well stocked. Having a Keurig was great. The toddler loved the small shovel on the porch and a sled was available. Will be back on our next trip to Fairbanks.

Perfect cabin for Aurora chasing

For my 70th birthday we came to Alaska in search of Aurora. The cabin was perfect; we even cooked 4 dinners in the well appointed kitchen. Unfortunately the weather was just not cooperating, but the host would share the cloud cover forecast which gave us hope. On the last night at about 11 pm the sky cleared and the stars came out. Just viewing the stars from the cabin was great. Then at about 12:45 we got an amazing Aurora show. So grateful and a perfect ending to our September Alaska Adventure. The host was extremely helpful and very quick with their responses. 10 out of 10.

Great Aurora Getaway

Our family of three had a great stay here. The cabin was clean and had what we needed. The aurora views were great and the cameras/live video were a great addition. The additional guidebook and online version were helpful. We hope to be able to visit again someday!

Amazing Aurora

First impression of the cabin from the driveway was WOW, the view was spectacular. The cabin was clean, comfortable and perfect for our group of 4. The highlight of our stay in Fairbanks was the aurora borealis that did not fail us. We were amazed on our first night when we saw the borealis right outside the cabin. On our second night the borealis was just breathtaking. We had an amazing time. Will definitely recommend Aurora ridge cabin.

Absolutely AMAZING Cozy Log Cabin in the woods

Absolutely AMAZING Cozy Log Cabin in the woods! This was our home away from home for 8 days, and it was perfect in every way. First it was spotlessly clean, pristine in fact! The living room boasts a nice sized TV, but since we spent our down time soaking up the sun and view from the front porch it wasn't used very much. The wildlife was wonderful, the privacy impeccable and beds were big, comfy and cozy. Best VRBO we have ever stayed at. The information provided was so well done, it shared everything you wanted to know and more that you weren't aware you needed to know. All artfully and skillfully done, just like the beautiful art in the cabin. We can't say enough how wonderful this cabin is. Super close to everything, yet surrounded by nature and trees - and a MOOSE - don't forget the moose. He is awesome. The fire pit and grill were nice too. Every time we came "home" we would stop and marvel at the beauty of both the cabin and the view. Last but not least the owners and customer service were TOP TIER! The communication and set-up of everything was so well done. THANK YOU for sharing your beautiful home. We loved every second that we were there, and hope to return.

Aurora views

Amazing cabin easy to get to close to town yet far enough away to be away from the light pollution. This cabin is located in a winter wonder land; it’s by far the Most beautiful winter scenery I’ve ever seen!! We didn’t even have to leave the cabin to see the Aurora. We were able to see the lights from the upstairs king bedroom lg window, from the porch, the driveway and out the kitchen window!
