Damage Protection: Insurance vs. Security Deposit

Security Deposit – A refundable amount held during your stay and returned after checkout if no damage is found.
Vacation Rental Insurance – A non-refundable, low-cost option that covers accidental damage up to a set limit.
Why We Recommend Insurance:

For peace of mind and a smoother experience, we highly recommend choosing the vacation rental insurance option. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Cute Cabin
We enjoyed this nice little cabin. We just needed a little break from our long camping trip and this was perfect. Just a note about the shower, nice strong water flow, nice hot water, shower head is high up so there’s no getting in and out without getting your hair wet, I’m 5ft 5in tall, so if you don’t want your hair getting wet wear a shower cap, lol!

Amazing getaway
This cabin is an absolute dream! Not too far from activities, but tucked away in the trees to give us a perfect little getaway. Check in was super easy, the property is really well maintained, and the cabin itself was clean and prepared for us. We were surprised to find amenities for children, like a high chair and pack n play! We’ll definitely bring our kids next time! Overall it was a delightful place to stay and added to how great our time in Alaska was!

Short work trip
Great little place in a great location just outside of main North Pole. My coworker really liked the outside bench swing while the property has other great amenities such as a fire pit and a sauna. The inside was very nice with a full kitchen, a nice living room with two big couches, and the upstairs had a couple beds. Fantastic place where I hope that we can stay again.

Very quaint and rustic. Bed was very comfortable. Tucked away just enough for privacy. Highly recommend staying here.

Great Stay!
The cabin was very well equipped with everything we needed. Communication with hosts was excellent. Location could not have been better (5 minutes to our family). Very nice and clean accommodation.

Beautiful Escape Into the Wild
The property was great! The owner provided loads of advice about the area and detailed input on getting checked in. The cabin was perfectly clean and despite the freezing temperatures outside, it stayed warm inside. This place is perfect for a couple/small family to stay if you're looking to experience a comfortable, non-commercial setting in Alaska!The only SMALL drawback was that the TV remotes did not allow for us to change channels and there was no bluetooth speaker for us to play music. But, honestly, when you're staying over here you have no desire to remain inside so we didn't lose much sleep over it.Strongly recommend this place to anyone heading to the Fairbanks/North Pole area!
