I want to emphazise that the the Northern Lights are predicted to peak in 2025. 2021 was an exceptional year and so far 2022 has had some incredible Auroras. Generally, the peak season begins August 20-April 15. Realize that the earlier and later in the season, the darkness is less, so you generally have less of a window to view the lights. It is warmer, but your viewing period is shorter. I was just above the arctic circle for a week (Sept 2-11) and had 2 phenomenal evenings of lights viewing 4 hours and 2 hours. If you want to have a good opportunity to view the lights, check out the UAF Geophysical Aurora Forecast which can help predict peak times to have success. That being said, I have had excellent viewing with a 2 kp level. This year there have been a number of days with a 6 kp level which is extraordinary.. If you are interested in viewing or photographing the lights, let me know what you are interested in and I will do my best to help. https://www.gi.alaska.edu/monitors/aurora-forecast

Great Place To Stay
We enjoyed our stay a great deal. The reservation, communication and check-in process was great as Brian proactively kept us informed of everything we needed to know and responded to questions very quickly. The property was very nice as well, and everything we needed was provided. We enjoyed our stay and will stay here again the next time we are in Fairbanks!

Owner is a good friend. Also, a great Dentist! We were hoping to meet he and his wife, but time got in the way. Location is wonderful, and our extended family 70 + people were having a family reunion. We met Friday at Pioneer Park, at the pavillion, 1/2 block away Very quiet at night, very clean, and yet in middle of the city. Obviously, 5 stars all around.

It was nice, comfortable, and clean.
It was great! My family enjoyed staying there. Except, the diesel smell upon checking in & had to use a towel to block the smell from the laundry room and using the provided air freshners. The stove was pretty old, and when turned on, it sparked up, so we werent able to use the front big burner when cooking. But other than that, it was decent.

Great place to stay in Fairbanks!
The home is located right next to pioneer park & close to downtown. There are few grocery stores within few mins drive. Also most of the well-known aurora viewing points in Fairbanks area are within an hour drive. If you are lucky, might be able to watch them right outside the home. We found it perfect for short or longer stays. Brian is one of the best host we have ever seen. He was fast in responding to our queries and provided us with many good recommendations & suggestions to explore around. We will definitely be staying here in case we are visiting Fairbanks again.

Stay in March
Everything about staying here was super nice! The property is exactly like described and made our stay in Fairbanks amazing. It’s located really close to practically everything and almost anything we wanted to do was within 10 minutes. Two people slept in the bed and one on the couch and none of us had any complaints about comfortability. I’m not sure if it’s due to when we stayed there but this house ended up being cheaper than booking a hotel, which was a major plus as we really felt like we had our own space. Overall staying there was an incredible option and the owner was extremely nice and helped make our staff that much better!

Excellent location for exploring Fairbanks and surrounding area
This apartment was wonderful and we enjoyed availing ourselves of the fully stocked kitchen to make our own meals, including trout we caught in nearby lakes. The upstairs neighbor who lives there full time was friendly and approachable but not overbearing. Brian, the owner, was amazing and responsive, even providing suggestions on activities and places to check out. Walking distance to the park and other downtown attractions. Wonderful stay.

Top notch host, unit and location!
We previously lived in Fairbanks for 22 years, about a mile from this VRBO so were we very familiar with this area. We were there to move our mid-30 year daughter and granddaughter down to the Lower 48 to be closer to family. The unit was very clean and stocked with everything we needed, as well as some extras I wasn't expecting that came in handy. The location was great for us as well as for tourists. It's right next door to Pioneer Park, one of Fairbanks prime tourist locations. . We took our granddaughter to the park every day to take a break from the long hours and days of sorting and packing. The long-term tenants upstairs were warm and welcoming. Brian, our host was wonderful. We have stayed in many VRBOs over the years, both in the US and overseas, and I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking to travel to Fairbanks, Alaska.

Cozy spot, nice neighbors!
This was a cozy, clean basement apartment, with some lovely photographs of the aurora borealis by the owner! The neighbors upstairs were very kind without being intrusive - definitely made us feel safe and supported! Kids loved having their own room (the family room space), and a table for games/puzzles. The air-perfuming products were overwhelming for me, but once we put them away the perfume smell cleared out pretty quickly and the space was fine. Kitchen worked great for us and was well supplied! Laundry was excellent. Really appreciated this safe haven during our travels.

Our family of 5 (kids ages 16, 14 and 13) just returned from a week long stay at this property (March 10-March 17). From shortly after we booked through our stay, I feel the owner went above and beyond with regards to communicating with me and making sure we had everything we needed and wanted for our stay. He provided us a cot so we had plenty of sleeping options for our kids. He also answered several questions for me regarding activities in the Fairbanks and surrounding areas. The property itself is very clean and fully stocked with bathroom and kitchen supplies. Having laundry available was fantastic as it allowed us to wash our scarves and dry our clothes after coming in from the snow. The Netflix access, playing cards and more were a nice bonus! There is also a large, private parking area which belongs to the property. The upstairs tenants, Paul and Jodilyn, were very personable and even surprised us with cheesecake and breakfast burritos. Please note this is a private rental and has separate access from the upstairs unit. As for shopping/restaurants, there are several options nearby (including grocery, coffee and fast food) and would be easy to walk to in warmer weather. Glacier Coffee was a family favorite and has everything from a variety of coffee drinks to breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Pioneer Park is practically next door and looked like a great place to enjoy during the warmer months. Thank you Brian! We'd stay again!

Brian is an amazing host. He pays attention to all the details. House was clean and well kept. Communication was excellent. And he went above and beyond in sharing local knowledge when I had questions. He’s also a thoroughly nice man. Some others had mentioned a tenant upstairs: it’s probably helpful to clarify that that is in a separate apartment above, with no direct access between the two. FWIW the tenant is very pleasant and not disruptive at all, certainly no privacy issues. Highly recommended - thanks Brian!
