Private Log Cabin in Goldstream Valley of Fairbanks

Hello! Comfy Caribou Lodge is the perfect place to stay while enjoying all that interior Alaska has to offer! This 1,700 sqft cabin has that rustic, cozy feeling that only a log cabin can provide on the first floor, but the second floor is completely modern! It's a perfect location for families or couples to enjoy nature as well as each other.

Inside you will find a rustic yet modern space with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, and comfortable living room.

Automatic Generator -- Weather in Alaska is unpredictable and electric outages are frequent. Our cabin is equipped with an automatic generator that will sense a power outage, turn on automatically, and deliver generator power until utility power returns -- whether two hours or two weeks! This is a BIG PLUS for living in Alaska.

The outdoor and cultural resources are endless!

Goldstream Creek runs through the valley of Fairbanks, providing habitat for fox, moose, numerous birds, and many other small mammals. The area has multiple trails used by hikers, bird watchers, dog walkers, berry pickers in the summer, and by skiers, dog mushers, and many others in the winter.

We provide a binder full of local information to help make the most of your vacation.

Perfect cabin stay!

We were looking flr a unique stay in Fairbanks and of course to see the Northern Lights. Right when we checked in the property owner made sure we knew the right side to look and a link to monitor the skies. It was the perfect view point and a great cabin to stay in. We would definitely come back and recommend to others on their travel.

Wonderful cabin

Our experience staying at the cabin couldn’t have been better. The cabin is located in a beautiful wooded area. It is super clean with a fully stocked kitchen. All three bedrooms are very comfortable. There are many board games provided that we played in evenings. I can’t thank Meyer’s enough for providing detailed guidance for Northern light watching which was our main purpose of the trip. We will definitely stay here again if we return to Fairbanks.

One thing off the bucket list

Our stay could not have been more enjoyable. We were welcomed with a first night gift bag that was very much appreciated. Very comfortable accommodations for the four of us. So very relaxing and we had an amazing aurora display on our last night! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Amazing

The property location is perfect! Not too far from town but far enough for peace and quiet. The cabin is nicer than the pictures indicate!! We had the Northern Lights 5 out of the 7 nights at the cabin and all we had to do was look out the window and stand on the porch!! Cabin has all of the necessities. Book this property! You will not be disappointed.

Perfect Spot

Comfy Caribou Lodge was a perfect spot to stay for us and our friends. The Lodge is far enough away from Fairbanks to have skies dark enough to view the Aurora and see wildlife but close enough to go in to town for groceries and to explore. The Lodge was very clean and spacious, offered everything we needed. Dace called us a few times to give extra information because we had a heavy snowfall and he arranged for someone to clear the drive. The Spencer's are very kind and helpful. Loved the Comfy Caribou Lodge.

Beautiful cabin for Fairbanks vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was very clean and seemed brand new. Owners are attentive and very easy to work with. They had thought of everything. Location is perfect - close enough to town to enjoy Fairbanks but remote enough to feel private and quiet. We will stay here again!

Great stay

We had a great stay at this property. It had everything anyone could just about need. There was even bug spray and a first aid kit. The accommodations were very comfortable. Communication with the owner was great. We saw the Aurora two out of the three nights we were there in early September. Be advised it is located about 15 minutes away from town, but we wanted to be away from the city lights. If we are ever in Fairbanks again, we would definitely stay there.

The best rental of our vacation.

The owner was very kind, calling us to make sure everything was as we expected upon arrival, leaving welcome card and goodies. All bedrooms are on 2nd floor, so if you have a handicapped person you may not be able to stay here. But, we definitely will recommend this VRBO. You can see the northern lights from the porch, which was a plus. House was like in new condition.

In Search of the Northern Lights

This was the perfect place for us to stay as we searched for the Northern Lights. We could not have been happier with our accommodations. The cabin is beautiful, easy to get to, and everything worked as it should. Highly recommend you will not be disappointed.
