Sit back, relax and enjoy your stay in this beautiful hand-scribed log home that is tucked away in the woods, yet less than 3 minutes from the airport and only 10 minutes to downtown.

This home is open and bright and has all the comforts and amenities of your own home to include smart TVs, highspeed internet and WIFI.

What is not to love about this beautiful log home! This updated suite has it all to make you feel right at home. The large living, dining and and fully stocked kitchen area is perfect for larger groups and entertaining friends and family. There is a large sectional couch to relax on and lots of seating for eating and games whether that be at the dining table or wrap around kitchen island. Tall, vaulted ceilings throughout the home showcase the beautiful Alaskan log beams!

Don't worry about parking outside in the winter because this VRBO includes a heated garage stall that is large enough for a truck or full-size SUV!

Each of the 3 bedrooms has a closet and queen size bed with quality mattresses and linens. Two of the bedrooms even have wall-mounted smart TVs for you to enjoy your favorite shows or movies on Netflix and Hulu! For added comfort one of the bedrooms even has an adjustable bed!

Everything was great for our 2 night stay. Kitchen was well stocked with a Keurig coffee maker and pods. Only minor complaint is the heater makes a popping/clanking noise at night so it required some ear plugs for good sleep. But we had them with us so all good.

COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE PERFECT !!!!! The pictures do not do this property justice. So incredibly serene, and close to everything! I was able to catch the Aurora right from the bedroom window! It was incredibly clean, and up to date. Everything worked fine and was very comfortable. Tara was super quick in communication, and very friendly. The place was super stocked with everything and anything we needed and then some. I can not say enough about how great this place was. I can't wait to go back, and I am recommending this place to all of my family and friends!

Believe the photos! The house truly is this beautiful! There were four in our party; the living area was plenty big enough and very comfortable for us to relax and watch a movie after being out all day. The kitchen was also big enough for us to move around without getting in each other’s way to make something to eat, make coffee, fix a snack, etc.The bedrooms were big, too. Big closets, extra blankets and pillows, and TVs in each room. All bedrooms had queen beds and you could move around the beds with room to spare – none of them were placed against a wall, which is something my husband and I cannot stand. The area is quiet, even though the home is, at the most, two miles from the airport. You do hear planes, but mostly it was the smaller bush planes during the day. I did hear commercial planes take off, but if I heard a half dozen the entire time we were there, that’s a lot, & they weren't loud. As spread out as Fairbanks is, we were surprised how close the home was to all amenitiesWe were very appreciative for the laundry facilities; Tera supplies detergent and dryer sheets, which we were thankful for! Tera is a wonderful host. She answered our many questions and provided in-depth info on various restaurants and unique shops to check out. She also gave us the scoop on where to see moose in the wild, and she was spot on! Thank you for everything, Tera! We truly appreciate all the thought you put into this home to ensure the comfort of your guests!

This place was perfect for our family of five! We came up for the State Cup Soccer Tournament, and it is always a busy and stressful few days. Thankfully, we had this place to come back to each day that had everything we needed plus more to keep us rested. As a bonus, the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and then some, so we didn't need to get much from the grocery store. We appreciated the convenience of the location, the comfort, and the overall ambiance of this home away from home. We definitely plan to book again when in Fairbanks.

Well, we had planned to have a day and a half of seeing Fairbanks, but due to one issue after another with our flights, our trip here was reduced to just sleeping here for about 4 hours. The cabin is in an amazing location for being near the airport. In fact, we missed being able to pick our rental at the airport due to the flight delays, so we walked back to the airport the next morning to pick the car up. It was very clean, and they left some life-saving snacks for us after we had been traveling for 27 hours to get there! Would absolutely stay here again!

Alaska family adventure

We really enjoyed our stay. We were out most of the time because we have family in Fairbanks. But the beds and family rooms were all comfortable. For us it was pretty centrally located. We would reserve again. And we enjoyed the porch and midnight sun.

Cozy cabin for a family get-away

This home is impeccably designed and decorated and had many touches that provided amazing hospitality during our one night stay at the end of our Alaskan family vacation. It was close to many attractions we visited. The check in was easy and the owners provided a great e-brochure prior to our arrival with info about the area and suggested places and restaurants to visit.

New Years Arctic Circle / Fairbanks Trip

Great place loved the wood cabin feel. Saw the Northern Lights from the back yard. Hosts were quick to respond and made sure we had everything we needed. Even had some gifts left for us when we arrived. Took a trip up to the arctic circle and this was a good base camp for our start. Perfect place for New Years. Very satisified with our stay

Great Place to Stay in Fairbanks

We appreciate the communication and accuracy of the listing. The amenities ans location of the Upper Timber is great. Our extended stay after our cruise at this fabulous spot was a perfect end to our trip. There were 6 of us ages 1 to 50. Tera and Bobby communicated very well. The highlight of our trip seeing Aurora Borealis from the Upper Timber. Thank you for everything. Carmen M.

If you come in the summer, there's a great back porch with a lawn. There was plenty of room for our family and lots of extras I didn't expect (like microwave popcorn, snacks, condiments, etc.). I highly recommend this place. We were in town for my grandson's baptism and it was great to be comfortable while in Alaska.
