Wonderful Quirky House
Wonderful, quirky house! It is an airplane hangar that has a new life as a house...very well designed with all amenities. Bathroom has jacuzzi tub, washer, dryer, and plenty of space. Hot tub in bedroom. Large living room with plenty of seating space. Board games available. Plenty of room in kitchen and dining area. Outdoor fire pit with chairs. Barbecue grill. Great place to relax .fairly close to Denali and Fairbanks. Bring your own groceries and snacks.

Perfect getaway
We had a great stay. The property is quaint, clean, and comfortable. Our 2 year old LOVED the hot tub and we were able to see the lights finally. We built tunnels in the snow and just explored the area. It was the perfect place for a small, quiet getaway.

Beautiful Stay
Check-in and -out was easy. Finding the home was a little tricky. Make sure to read Mary's instructions to drive to the home. There's a white sign on a tree with the house address for easy identification. The home was clean and spacious. It was also heated upon arrival. We appreciate the frozen food that was provided. All the essentials were available for use as well. I appreciate the jackets that was there. It snowed nonstop for two days! I did not expect that! I had to borrow a parka for the day. The hot tub was broken but we still enjoyed the jetted tub. I also appreciate the huge bathroom with the table for ironing/steaming my wedding dress. Lastly and by far the most important, Mary's communication and availability was phenomenal!!! She was helpful with giving us tips on how to drive in fresh snow when we received several inches of snow over night. She even offered to drive to Fairbanks to get us snow chains. She also came over to give our car a jump when the battery died due to the cold! Mary is so sweet and has a beautiful soul.

Family trip to Denali
We stayed here for a couple of nights on our visit to Denali. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 to spread out and cook meals. We felt like we were at an authentic Alaskan backwoods retreat.
