Welcome to Moose & Bear Lodge — a fully renovated 1948 home directly across from Creamer's Field, one of Fairbanks' favorite in-town spots for Northern Lights, birdwatching and winter ski and snowshoe trails

Your group gets the entire house: two private suites under one roof, each with its own kitchen, living room, bathroom and fireplace. No other guests are on site — the whole house, yard and driveway are yours. Families and friends travel together without tripping over each other: early risers cook breakfast downstairs while the night owls sleep in upstairs.

NORTHERN LIGHTS & CREAMER'S FIELD
The open fields across the street give you wide-sky aurora viewing when conditions cooperate — no 1 AM drive out of town. Want darker skies? Cleary Summit (~22 mi / 35 min) and Murphy Dome (~26 mi / 45 min) are classic aurora drives. Creamer's Field is also a year-round favorite for wildlife, birdwatching, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.

TRAVELING WITH A SMALLER GROUP?
Both suites also rent on their own: The Moose Lodge (main level, 2BR/1BA) and The Bear Den (upstairs, 1BR/1BA). You'll find them on our host profile.

• Fenced backyard with patio and propane grill (propane and a backup tank provided)

House rules are posted in the home for all guests. They're simple and guest-friendly — no fines and no checkout chores.

A historic 1948 home, fully renovated, with a few quirks:
• The upstairs suite is 12 steps up, with low clearance in a couple of spots (signs posted). The main-level suite has no interior stairs.
• Historic walls carry everyday sounds between the two levels.
• The main-level queen bedroom has an original door to the laundry hallway: 70" tall, 22" wide, with a 10" step down. It stays locked — please use the regular entrances.
• We're by College Road and next door to a popular coffee shop, so you may hear traffic or morning customers. Quiet hours are 10 PM–8 AM for our neighbors.
• Heavy window frost in deep cold is normal — please wipe up meltwater.

Sleeping more than 6 means using the floor mattresses and couches.

No parties or events. Maximum 10 guests.

Pets welcome: friendly with people and other dogs, leashed outdoors, never left unattended and kept off the furniture.

Winter:
• Keep every door and window closed and latched — an open door can freeze the pipes within hours.
• Plug in block heaters at 20°F (−7°C) or colder using the outlets provided.
• Our snow crew may ask you to move vehicles, sometimes on short notice.
• Walkways are cleared, but ice can still form.
• If a smart lock struggles in deep cold, message us for the backup key.
• More than two vehicles, a trailer or an oversized vehicle? Message us first.

The boiler and hot pipes are in the laundry room — please don't leave children there unattended.
No air conditioning; portable fans provided.
No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property.
Exterior cameras cover the driveway and backyard. No cameras inside the home.
Moose wander through town — give them plenty of space.
