Reviews
Loved the Location
4/5 This property is half way between Fairbanks and North Pole. It is quiet and easy to get in and out of. It took us about 15 minutes to get to the shopping area in Fairbanks, but we were out and about every day anyway. We felt like this was a nice property for us. There were a few things we would have liked that were missing in the kitchen and the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great, but we were very comfortable there.

Excellent Choice with One Exception
4/5 Overall, we were satisfied with the rental. We used it for 5 nights as a base for activities in and around Fairbanks. It was the right size and had a great location off a paved road. The space was clean and well stocked.
Pros: Paved driveway off a paved road. Easy access to highways and only 20 minutes to Fairbanks. Plenty of space, comfortable bedding, all linens supplied. Kitchen has everything you need and there is a grill outside. Property treated for mosquitos and we noticed a definite difference in the level of mosquitos versus other locations in and around Fairbanks.
Cons: Outdoor privacy is limited. The deck pictured is off the front of the house with the front door of the long term tenant next to it. The backyard has no outdoor seating and the long term tenant used it to park vehicles and other equipment. We were renting in the summer and the outdoor space was a big draw but ended up not being as private as we had hoped.
This is absolutely a great rental and I would recommend it, particularly for winter usage.

March stay in Badger
4/5 We really had fun staying here. Lot of space outside the house and the owners were kind enough to share their sled for snowplay.

Christmas Family vacay
5/5 The property has amazing scenery all around. A winter wonderland. Everything was to our expectations. My only suggestion is the kitchen could have been a little cleaner. There was left over food in the fridge and freezer. Pots and pans didn't look like they were used much, needed to be washed. None of that is a big deal. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
