North Pole Apartment | Aviators Aurora Lakefront Retreat

1 Bedroom Apartment in North Pole, Fairbanks

Elegant 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment in a serene natural lakeside setting on an airstrip, perfectly situated for aurora viewing from the house or the front patio. We’re 1.6 miles from the iconic Santa Claus House & North Pole amenities, restaurants, & shops including hardware, auto parts & groceries. Only 15 minutes to Eielson AFB & Ft Wainwright, we are an ideal location for work, relaxation, adventure or all three! In-unit laundry.
This airplane hangar apartment offers an authentic Alaskan experience without roughing it. Located in the heart of North Pole, it is enveloped in nature as well as set up perfectly for Aurora viewing. We have recently seen moose, lynx, fox, and families of migrating swans on the lake! The master bedroom is outfitted with all the comforts of home, including a plush king bed with classic Pendleton bedding, a new smart TV, a ceiling fan, a portable standing fan, and room-darkening shades. The open floor plan living room/kitchen area features a cozy sectional fold-out couch with throw pillows and blankets and smart TV for nights at home. For added convenience, the bathroom is located between the master bedroom and the living/kitchen area and offers a bonus walk-in closet and laundry room. Large windows in all areas allow you to immerse yourself in the natural surroundings. This authentic Alaskan venue is perfect for your trip of a lifetime.
Guests may use anything within the unit, on the patio, and on the lake. Access the lake
via the concrete dock to the front-left of the apartment for paddling, floating, swimming, and winter cross-country skiing. Please help us keep everyone safe by respecting the hangar, not touching the airplanes right outside your front door, and not walking on the runway.
We live nearby and are available if you need help. In addition, our good friends at Dreambnb, a phenomenal co-hosting company, help us take the best possible care of you.

Summary: We had a great time here! It's very clean, modern, and cozy. Perfect for watching the auroras in March. The owner was really quick with responses and is very knowledgeable about the area. We got a lot of good information about activities we could do while we were in town. We'd love to visit again!

Summary: We loved every day we stayed in this wonderful Alaskan home. We were fortunate to the see the auroras dancing in our backyard for most of the the nights. Appreciate the activity recommendations and quick responses. Loved the heated floors, cleanliness, and all the homey amenities. Appreciate the quick response and toddler gear. Hope to stay here again when our little one is a little older. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable experience.

Summary: This apartment is laid out perfectly. Very comfortable. Has everything that you would need during your stay. We ate all of our meals in. Something about being outside at a - 27, except for the Northern Lights show that we were able to photograph and enjoy for several nights. Jess is an incredible host. Communicated well. LOVED the artwork, the airplane models, , framed picture of a Moose. The washer and dryer are a plus. We would still be there if the schedule would have allowed. Jess, thank you for the wonderful time/stay that we had and also, how to check if the Aurora is in the area. Thanks again for the wonderful time!!!

Summary: A unique stay with all of the amenities and a responsive, helpful host. It has my 3 c's...clean, comfortable, & convenient and much more. A quiet location but has shopping, etc close by. The aviation theme was an added bonus for a pilot like myself. Been around the world at many unique properties...this was one of the best! 5/5 would stay here again...and definitely will on my next trip.

Summary: The place was clean with a wonderful layout and the views were spectacular. We got to see an incredible display of the Northern Lights to finish out our stay. Highly recommended.
Melanie S. Aug 8, 2024 07:21:46 AM
Summary: If I could give 10 stars I would. I moved from the Big Horn room to the Aviators Aurora after two weeks and stayed here the rest of the time we were in Ak. The Big Horn room was great, but this was like a palace. If you are on the fence, spend the little bit extra and get this one. Jess has thought of everything here! From soft cozy blankets everywhere, high end fixtures and finishes, fully equipped kitchen and on and on. As if that is not enough she was always asking if there was anything else I needed, but honestly there never was bc it was already there. Outdoors they also thought of everything. Canoes, paddle boards, fishing gear, corn hole, grills. This will be our home away from home from now on. If you have a chance to go on the Riverboat, you might see your host doing the Bush Pilot demonstration, it was very cool. We also enjoyed watching lots of take offs and landings right out our window. We had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back!

Summary: I have vacationing with VRBO for many years. This was one of the cleanest, and nicely decorated. Jesse, the host was only a phone call away and was full of information of things to do in the area. It was close to town yet the trees and surroundings made you feel you in the country.
