A proposito di questa casa struttura in affitto

Catch the northern lights from the hot tub at Star Base 🌠, a unique retro star-shaped 4BR in Fairbanks! This spacious home sleeps 8, with a game room, geodesic dome, and vintage design touches. Guests rave about aurora hot tub nights, comfy beds, spotless space, and location: private but only 12 minutes to downtown. From aurora viewing on the balcony to family game nights in the game room, consider Star Base your mission control for an out-of-this-world Alaskan experience!

THE SPACE

Welcome to Star Base, a one-of-a-kind Fairbanks home that blends retro midcentury modern design with all the comforts today’s travelers crave. Built in the 1960s by architect Roger Cotting, Star Base's footprint takes the shape of a star, offering 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and space for up to 8 guests: perfect for families, groups, or aurora chasers.

Star Base is more than a stay: it’s an experience. This home is filled with retro character, modern updates, and thoughtful touches that guests consistently rave about.

Guests love:
✨ Soaking under the northern lights in the hot tub
🎮 Vintage game room fun for kids and adults
🔥 Fireplace and cozy nooks for winter nights
🛌 Ultra-comfy beds with blackout curtains
🌌 Secluded, tree-lined lot just 12 min from downtown
🌟 Spacious yet quirky layout — perfect for groups

At its heart is the kitchen with multiple wings swooping outward and notably featuring a retro sunken living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, natural light, and warm, earthy materials that echo Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired design. Guests love how it feels both expansive and intimate: gather around the fireplace, play games on geometric midcentury West Elm and Crate & Barrel designer furnishings, or simply watch the northern lights dance across the sky from the comfort of the sofa.

The rest of the home is designed for connection and play:
👉 A fully stocked kitchen and dining area ready for home-cooked meals
👉 A retro game room with vintage arcade consoles, records, games and puzzles for all ages 🎮
👉 A dedicated office nook with fast Wi-Fi for workcations or streaming ✨
👉 Four stylish bedrooms with memory foam mattresses, blackout curtains, and cozy linens 🛌

Step outside and the magic of Alaska unfolds: a private hot tub under the stars, an aurora-viewing geodesic dome, and a tree-lined yard where moose often wander. Guests frequently call this the highlight of their trip: the perfect blend of privacy and proximity.

⚡ Know Before You Book
🧻 Bathrooms: The home has 2 full bathrooms, one with a tub/shower combo and the other with a shower only. Both have been recently refreshed.
💧Water: Our home is on a well. We recently invested $25,000 in a top-to-bottom system upgrade — the water is safe, odorless, and delicious. A filtered reverse-osmosis tap is provided in the kitchen for drinking water.
🌡️Climate: Like most Alaska homes, there is no central AC. Summers are mild and fans are provided in each room. In winter, the fireplaces and the heating system keep the house toasty warm (guests even note how cozy it feels at –40°F).
🏡 Neighborhood: Star Base feels private on 1.7 acres and is surrounded by trees, but it is part of a quiet residential area.
🌠 Aurora: While many guests have seen the northern lights from the hot tub or balcony, it’s a natural wonder and cannot be guaranteed.

We really enjoyed our stay. It is a cozy and beautiful home in an amazing setting. Much bigger than we needed, but we chose it anyways! Because we had a short stay, we did not use the hottub, igloo or game room. Kitchen well stocked with staples and equipment.

Excellet little hidden Gem. We love to do staycations pretty regularly, it helps everyone connect as a foster family. They have all said they just want to keep coming back here. Only minor downside would be the heat is a little hard to regulate in parts but thats pretty common up here at -20 :)

Our recent stay at the Star shaped Retreat in Fairbanks was an unforgettable experience, and I'm delighted to share a review of this exceptional property. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the home's charm and the thoughtful amenities provided.One of the standout features was the outdoor hot tub. After a day of exploring the rugged beauty of Alaska, sinking into the warm, bubbling water under the vast northern sky was pure bliss. The hot tub was clean, well-maintained, and offered a perfect vantage point for enjoying the serene surroundings. It was the ideal way to relax and unwind, and we found ourselves using it every evening.Inside, the games room was a fantastic addition that provided endless entertainment. The room was well-equipped with a variety of video games and a comfortable seating area. It was the perfect gathering spot for our group, and we spent hours laughing and competing in friendly games. It's a great space for families with children or a group of friends looking for some indoor fun.The barbecue setup was another major highlight. The grill was clean and ready to use, and we enjoyed several delicious meals cooked outdoors. There's something special about grilling in the cool Alaskan air, and the well-maintained outdoor space made it a truly pleasant experience. It's an excellent amenity for those who love to cook and enjoy a fantastic meal.Beyond the specific amenities, the home itself was comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated. It
