The cabin has running water, full kitchen and full bathroom (shower and tub) inside the cabin. Caribou Cabin feels like a home away from home.

The cabin is off a cut-de-sac at the end of a gravel road so there is not a lot of traffic noise. We have a large storage garage/shop next door to the cabin. My husband is a retired contractor and still has some equipment parked across from the cabin, but none of it should be run during your stay.

Loved the area! We had neighbors near by, but still felt very private. Not far from shopping or traveling to near by areas. The place was clean, stocked with cookwear, extra sheets, etc! The host was available if need be. Great Place!

Great Stay
My daughter came to visit from California and wanted to see the northern lights. We got to see them from the cabin which is what we were hoping. Cute place, plenty of space, had all the things we needed.

Wonderful cabin
This is a beautiful lil cabin nestled among the trees. Good location not far from North Pole and just a quick little drive to Fairbanks. Our main goal was to chase the Northern Lights but we found on one spectacular night all we had to do was walk outside our door …. It was the topper for our trip. Highly recommend this place!

Pleasant Surprise
My first impression was not the best because the location was not what I expected. However, as soon as we entered the cabin, my misgivings evaporated. It was spacious and lovely. The full size kitchen had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable and the room had plenty of space to unpack and hang our clothes. The washer and dryer were a huge plus! Overall, I would definitely book this cabin again.

Lovely secluded cabin
This cabin was exactly as described and met all expectations. It was in a secluded area where you would think you were miles away from everywhere, yet right close to town. It was clean and well kept. The bed was comfortable, the linens were good quality, the kitchen was fully stocked, and there was plenty of space for everything. The TV was connected to cable and the wifi worked perfectly. This made our first time visit to Alaska wonderful. As stated in the description, the only bathroom is on the main floor and the bedroom is upstairs so if you have trouble with stairs or like having a bathroom close to your bed, you could make the futon out into a bed and sleep downstairs as there was linens, pillows and blankets to convert it into a bed.

Northern Lights!!!!!
I really enjoyed the stay at Jamie’s cabin. It was clean, smelled great and had everything we needed plus some. Everything was thought of. I especially loved the St. Nickerdoodle coffee. It was awesome. The best part… we saw the Northern Lights from the cabin on our first night there. I HIGHLY recommend!

Adorable cabin!
My husband and I needed a place to stay for a few days with our little pups in tow. This cabin was super convenient to the town of North Pole and had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable. This host has a few places to stay at, and we’ve enjoyed each one over the last couple of visits!
