Beautiful Nottingham House: Secluded but Close to Town
About this house rental
Nottingham House is a modern home with furnishings remodeled to accommodate visitors to the lovely city of Fairbanks. The home is a duplex, with the VRBO unit on the lower level. Because of the windows and the unit is walk out, it does not feel like a downstairs. The Nottingham House is located in the hills above Fairbanks, providing a quiet private location that is an easy drive to much to much of Fairbanks, including downtown, University of Alaska, Pioneer Park and the airport. The privacy allows quiet views of the stunning winter sunrises, as well as extended animal viewing in the back yard (we sometimes see moose!). With the large, south-facing windows, guests are able to experience the light of Fairbanks at all stages of the year. The unit can accommodate up to 8 guests with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open kitchen and living room area, a dining area, and laundry room. Additionally, there are two pullout couches: one in the living room and one in the master bedroom. Please note that more than 4 guests will add an additional charge of $25 each/night. The large primary bedroom has a queen bed, tiled bathroom, and has a sitting area with a pull out full bed that can be walled off with sliding pocket doors to create a semi-private second bedroom. Another tiled bathroom services the other bedroom, with queen bed, to accommodates the rest of your family. The kitchen is stocked with amenities and small appliances for preparing your meals. Contemporary, open kitchen and dining room invite warm family gatherings. The tiled showers and bathrooms are elegant and spacious. With its prime location and amenities, the Nottingham House is a perfect place to stay while visiting Fairbanks with your group. Up to 8 people can stay together in our lovely home. Please check out our amenities and the local attractions for more information.

The online pictures don't do the property justice. It's much better in person. The art work added a very nice touch.

Fairbanks greeted us with more snow than expected but our AWD handled the 10 minute trip from the airport to this lovely rental with no problem. As everyone else has already stated, this home is stocked with everything you could ask for and the beautiful artwork and decor made us feel right at home.

The home is immaculate, cozy, very lovely, super-clean, charming, well-stocked down to the smallest detail/amenities—just simply beautiful ! Our vacation and stay was definitely one for the books. Thank you very much to Brittany & Jeff. We definitely look forward towards our return vacation and stay in your beautiful home. God bless! ♥️😊👍

Very clean, modern and cozy property makes us feel at home. Most of item was prepared with clean and well organized, so fimally what we need to bring was tooth brush only! Though property was enough close to the city, the area was very quiet and calm place where I really love it. For winter season, I rexcomend to use 4wd cat to access.
Host Brittany & Jeff respond very quickly upon inquiry and provided very clear instruction for checking in for us. Also, during the stay they helped to clear the snow on pedestrian and carpark, that helped us to walk around easy. Just 1thing I worried was trash we made during stay. Since I couldn't find the bin at the place we told, I put the trash into the bin in front of the 1st floor instead. If it was wrong, Im really sorry about that..
Anyway if we have another chance to visit fait, definitely i will come back here.

It’s a short 5 min drive into town yet feels like this home is miles and miles away from it all.
Super cute home and nice layout.
Has everything one could need including laundry and bbq.
Miles of trails outside the front door and views that are expansive and magnetic.
The cherry on the top were the outstanding Northern Lights we got to see!
Host was attentive and communicative while never in the way.

Great place to stay
Amazing place to stay! Very modern and filled with lots of cool Alaska art. Great location in the hills with access to trails out the back door. We definitely stay again on our next trip to Fairbanks.

So Inviting!!!!!!
The place was "beyond clean" and so comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some. The bathrooms and rooms are very modern. I really appreciated our hosts and the care they had for us and their investment. The sunny patio made me want to lounge around all day, but we were there for a graduation. The artwork throughout the house highlighted Alaska and there were so many fun books to read. The location made it easy to travel around Fairbanks and every time we left and returned we checked in on the Muskox in the large animal reserve located minutes from the house.

We had a great stay at Brittany’s place. The property is beautiful, both inside the home and the property. The place was clean, comfortable and spacious for our family (3 adults and 1 child). We cooked out on the propane grill twice while we visited and the kitchen was equipped with all our cooking needs. The bedrooms and bathrooms were every clean and super nice (in-love with the heated floors). The property is 10-15 mins away from shopping and dining, and Fairbanks was amazing! Would highly recommend this stay and will be booking again when we come back!

Spent 5 nights in this beautiful home with our kids. Fourth trip to Fairbanks and definitely the nicest place (within same price range) yet! House had all essentials plus the extras for make our stay extra comfortable and easy. Nice linens, comfy beds, all kitchen utensils one would need (including sharp knives!), games, books, etc. Obvious that the owners have pride in their rental and their guest’s comfort. The view of the Alaska Range from the couch and aurora from the front was a bonus along with the groomed ski trail access from the property, but still very close to town. Wonderful hosts and can’t wait for another visit!

We enjoyed the setting of this property outside of town. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking on site. We had all of the amenities of home. There was a nice variety of information provided regarding the area and surrounding areas for things to do and see. Our hosts provided information about local restaurants and areas of interest. The home was spotless and comfortable. We would definitely book this home again when we are in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Nottingham house. The surroundings were spacious and beautifully done and the friendly kitties were an extra bonus. We especially liked the selected reading material including the book of kitty poems!

Overall, I and everyone in my group thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay at Nottingham House.
I only have one gripe: the floors were very dirty. Walking around without shoes resulted in black feet. Even so, I would visit again, I'd just bring some slippers.
In every other way, you can tell that real care goes into maintaining this property. So many things are already on-hand for your convenience: detergent, spices, all the basic kitchen necessities for cooking and baking, extra toilet paper, and many more things we didn't even use (games, movies, etc.).
My interactions with Brittany (the host) were all very positive.
She was very helpful and responded quickly to my questions prior to arrival. At one point I asked what baking implements were available and she offered to bring down something from upstairs if it wasn't already downstairs.
On the last day of our stay, we were doing some laundry, but the power went out. I called Brittany to inform her and ask if the house was on city water or a well. In the 15-20 minutes the power was out Brittany had already contacted the power company and got back to me that the power would
be back on soon. Brittany was gracious enough that, though at work, she asked if we needed anything from the store and gave us the ability to leave after the standard check-out period. We could not have had a more accommodating host.
The host's family is very quiet in the upstairs level; we only heard faint footsteps downstairs on two occasions. This was very fitting for the location, which was also very quiet. I found the house's setting (a forested area outside of town) peaceful and relaxing.
I really liked the showers. The quality matches what you see in the photos. The heated floors are also nice.
The sleeping arrangements are comfortable. I would describe the bed firmness as medium. It was more plush than I'm used to, but I slept just fine. I'm used to sleeping in near total darkness, so the second bedroom (which has no windows) worked well for me. The door to that room does have windows, but just inside the door there is a floor-to-ceiling curtain that can be pulled across the entry to the room. (Around the summer solstice it is always light out in Fairbanks.)
If done right, the Vrbo experience far exceeds what you get at a hotel, and that is what Brittany offers at Nottingham House.
