Arctic Glow River Modern 4BR Aurora with Sauna
Experience Fairbanks at its most peaceful and picturesque.
Welcome to Arctic Glow River Haven, a newly remodeled 4-bedroom, 2-bath modern home perched right on the banks of the Chena River. Just 5 minutes from downtown Fairbanks and 7 minutes from the airport, this riverfront retreat combines the magic of aurora nights and Arctic sunrises with unmatched comfort and convenience.
From the moment you arrive, the panoramic river views steal the show. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with natural light by day and frame the glowing aurora by night. Step onto the riverside deck for morning coffee as mist drifts across the water, or gather by the large living-room windows to watch the northern lights shimmer across the frozen river in winter.
The interior has been completely redesigned in 2025 with clean modern lines, soft lighting, and Scandinavian-inspired touches that make every corner feel calm and inviting. The open-concept living area includes a cozy fireplace, a smart TV, and an elegant dining space overlooking the river — ideal for families or small groups to connect after a day of Alaskan adventure.
The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped with stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, and all cooking essentials for long stays. Whether you’re preparing breakfast for early aurora chasers or hosting dinner for friends, the kitchen flows beautifully into the dining and lounge areas for easy entertaining.
After a day exploring the Ice Museum, Chena Hot Springs, or the University of Alaska Museum of the North, unwind in your private Finnish-style sauna — the perfect way to restore body and spirit under the Arctic sky.
Each of the four bedrooms has been thoughtfully furnished with premium bedding, blackout curtains, and touches of Alaskan warmth. The setup is ideal for couples, families, or work-remote travelers seeking both comfort and tranquility.
Bedroom Setup: • Bedroom 1 – King Suite: Spacious and bright, with luxurious linens and river views. • Bedroom 2 – Queen Room: Modern comfort and cozy lighting, perfect for couples. • Bedroom 3 – Full/Twin and Twin/twin Bunk Room: Great for kids or mixed-age groups. • Bedroom 4 – Full/Twin Bunk Room: Sleeps up to 4 comfortably with space to relax.
Location Perks: ✦ 5 min → Downtown Fairbanks (restaurants, shops, museums) ✦ 7 min → Fairbanks International Airport ✦ 8 min → University of Alaska Museum of the North ✦ 10 min → Start of Chena Hot Springs Road
