Best Staycation Ever

Loved our short trip to Fairbanks and our stay at this cozy house in the heart of Fairbanks. It was incredibly easy to get around the city in every direction. The home was pristine and had all amenities and then some. The hosts were very responsive and friendly and we would definitely choose to stay here again!

Perfect Home for Two

The place is small, but ideally located and spotlessly clean. Though the living area/bedroom is small, both the kitchen and bathroom were very large. Everything we needed was waiting for us. If/when we make it back to Fairbanks we would definitely stay here again.

The location is a short walk to downtown and the bus station which was important since we were first time visitors to Fairbanks with no car. The apartment exceeded expectations. It was cozy, clean, and everything was provided for a comfortable stay. I will book this again next time I’m in Fairbanks!

Fairbanks Winter Getaway

We booked the studio rental for 8 nights in late Feb. 2025.Great "base camp" in downtown Fairbanks for the two of us to see the city and the surrounding areas.Communication with the owners, Marilyn & Ryle was easy and prompt, including before and during our stay.Well maintained and clean property with plenty of the "basics" (towels, utensils, paper goods, easy to use appliances, etc.) provided.Comfortable, open space with good lighting and seating and plenty of games / puzzles / reading material for your in-house time.Your own parking space right outside. Quiet area with access to good local food and local sites/shopping. We caught some of the minor winter weather and found roads were plowed, sidewalks shoveled and the property walkway/steps were cleaned promptly.If we return to Fairbanks again, this will be our first choice for a temporary residence.John & Donna S.

Handy little space.

Nicely convenient to downtown Fairbanks, I liked how clean everything was, and enjoyed the complimentary hot oatmeal and tea in the morning. Bathroom is very spacious and the windows opened for a nice breeze through the space when the weather was nice. I was able to have some friends over for dinner one night and sit around the kitchen table to chat.

About the host

Hosted by Ryle or Marilyn Radke

Host profile image
Ryle and Marilyn arrived in Alaska with military fathers being stationed here (Ryle in high school and Marilyn in grade school). We both now consider Fairbanks our hometown. We enjoy the beauty of Alaska. Fairbanks has all the weather extremes, from below zero temperatures in the winter with short hours of daylight, to long hours of sunshine in summer and the possibility of 90 degrees days. We have learned to embrace life in this "arctic desert". Ryle enjoys fly fishing and dip netting for salmon, as well as mountain sheep, caribou and moose hunting. The delicious fish and game meat are our table staples.

Why they chose this property

Guests will enjoy ample space in this studio, with a fully equipped kitchen, and homey atmosphere with Alaskan touches. We chose furniture and decorations with the aim of making guests feel completely comfortable in our hometown. This will be a good alternative to a generic hotel room. The interior of Alaska offers so many choices of things to do, from aurora viewing to dog mushing to outdoor fun like fishing, hiking and camping.

What makes this property unique

This home offered us the double benefit of a convenient downtown location for a business on the lower level, as well as being a guest space upstairs. We enjoy hosting out-of-town relatives, and friends, while still offering them space of their own to spread out and have privacy. The small, older home needed upgrades when we purchased it, but it is now in very good condition and serves both of our purposes perfectly.
