I want to emphazise that the the Northern Lights are predicted to peak in 2025. 2021 was an exceptional year and so far 2022 has had some incredible Auroras. Generally, the peak season begins August 20-April 15. Realize that the earlier and later in the season, the darkness is less, so you generally have less of a window to view the lights. It is warmer, but your viewing period is shorter. I was just above the arctic circle for a week (Sept 2-11) and had 2 phenomenal evenings of lights viewing 4 hours and 2 hours. If you want to have a good opportunity to view the lights, check out the UAF Geophysical Aurora Forecast which can help predict peak times to have success. That being said, I have had excellent viewing with a 2 kp level. This year there have been a number of days with a 6 kp level which is extraordinary.. If you are interested in viewing or photographing the lights, let me know what you are interested in and I will do my best to help. https://www.gi.alaska.edu/monitors/aurora-forecast

Great experience
This property is across from Pioneer Park and the Chena River bike/walking path. It is also on the busline (M-F) and is walking distance from the The grocery store and UAF. We 7 didn't rent a car so the central location was essential.

Fantastic apartment close to everything
Brian is a top-notch host and his property is very quaint and comfortable. The place had everything we needed for our quick trip to Fairbanks to see the aurora borealis. The heated garage kept our rental car nice and warm, as well, as keeping the apartment warm on those cold nights. We loved our stay. Highly recommend this property!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I thought the apartment was comfortable and clean. I liked the coffee mugs. I really enjoyed my stay and liked the location next to pioneer park. I rented a bike and the garage was handy for storing it safely overnight.

Great quiet spot close to downtown and highways
Cute little A-frame building over a two stall garage. Water heater and forced air system worked great, even had a cute kitchen set-up with 2 burners for cooking. Lots of complementary items like soap, coffee, spices and linens, so don’t worry about packing all of the essentials. The building is located in the alley behind the dentists office, so there’s no highway noises despite being probably <100 yards from Airport Way. Perfect distance from town, grocery, and not a bad spot for traveling out of town to visit parks or view the Aurora.

Just Right
I am an Alaskan from a remote community who flew to town for basketball and doctors appointments. Brian’s vrbo is the ideal location for getting things done in Fairbanks. While its central spot is in walking distance to a lot of things, the access to a garage was very nice to be able to park our truck. The apartment was just what we needed to find rest amidst checking things off the to-do list. Comfortable bed and bedding, nice kitchen appliances, and thoughtful miscellaneous supplies. Brian was excellent with communication! This vrbo is one we will consider stating at for future trips to town.

Affordable and Clean
Only minutes from the airport, it lived up to its name an apartment over a garage but it was clean and afordable the owner was great and stayed in communication from days before arrival through out thw stay and offered great advise. The apartment is directly next to pioneer park which during the open season looked cool. Traveling from here is very convienant. I would recomend it for couples or business people on a budget
