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.

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.

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!

Game night gang getaway
This cabin was the perfect place for the six of us seniors. We managed to cross off a bucket list item with this trip. Meera and Spencer are fantastics hosts. They have provided everything you need for a wonderful stay in Alaska. The cabin is beautiful! You are truly in the middle of nature sitting on the porch. Such a peaceful place! We saw lots of birds and animals and managed to see the light show on our last night there. If you are looking for that perfect Alaskan experience this is the place!!

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.

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.

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.

Here for our sons wedding and to cook the rehearsal dinner
Very lovely log home out of the main part of the town-it was very peaceful. Our next trip to Fairbanks-as we will be having plenty- we will stay there again! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home. We had to cook a BBQ dinner (which we hosted at the Pioneer Pavilion) for 50+ people and we were able to handle that just fine in the homes kitchen. Having a few bathrooms was also very helpful as we got to help the groomsman and best man all get ready. Hoy Family

Amazing home!
We have stayed at many homes in many different places and we all agree that this has been our favorite! This home mixes Alaskan charm with all the modern amenities you would want. It’s a beautiful, spacious home that feels completely secluded even though you can be at a store in ten minutes. The owners were wonderful and had great communication. On Saturday morning we lost partial power and within a half an hour they had an electrician out to fix it. It is very obvious that the owners care deeply about their home and the guests staying here. The only negative thing I can say is that we had to leave!

Spotlessly clean and well-furnished home
The home's location is perfect, enough out of town that it is quiet and peaceful yet close enough that it's easy to get to the grocery store or airport. Ate at Ivory Jack's one night, which is 3 minutes away. A worthwhile place to check out. The house is well furnished and as I said in the title spotlessly clean. Communication with the owners was very easy. WiFi works well. I appreciated that both the front porch and back porch were furnished and again clean.

Best Stay Ever
We travel a lot, stayed in all kinds of sleeping arrangements. This cabin was absolutely excellent! Everything about this cabin is worth your stay. Supplied, cozy, comfortable and very clean (most important part for me). There is a wooded area surrounding the property, with two decks to sit outside and relax with super cozy deck furniture. The kitchen is marvelous with all the latest appliances. Even two coffee pots, one for pods, one for ground. The beds were just right with fresh linens (the walls are not paper thin) and Master Bedroom is very nice with separate bath. Water pressure was great with all of us taking showers and doing dishes we always had hot water. This cabin is definitely spacious enough for 6 people. Being able to wash your clothes in provided washer and dryer, added plus. This cabin is far enough away from the city to give you privacy, and peace. They have movies, books, games and lap blankets (who doesn’t like lap blankets). Furniture was comfortable with plenty of seating. The owners are so friendly and engaging and very helpful. You will not be disappointed. Truly a remarkable cabin and owners!! Thank you to the owners for this wonderful experience!

Amazing Dream Trip
We were looking for the perfect place to check off a bucket list viewing of the Northern Lights...and this was THE perfect place. The Comfy Caribou Lodge was exactly as described and did not disappoint. The location was absolutely amazing for viewing the Aurora as the cabin is far enough from the city lights for dark skies, but still close for groceries and restaurants. The lodge stayed warm and cozy as temperatures were near or below zero. Plenty of extra space heaters for warmth and a BIG plus with heated floors upstairs. The kitchen was well equipped for making meals at home and plenty of stocked essentials and spices. The availability of keeping your car plugged in on the super cold nights was very convenient. The owners were easily reachable very responsive with questions about the house and suggestions about what to do in the Fairbanks area. We had 4 amazing nights of viewing the aurora and Mother Nature did not disappoint. We highly recommend staying at this cabin if you are seeking the lights and we will for certain come back here to experience the midnight sun.

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!
