This is a great way to enjoy your stay in Alaska.
the B&B is in the midst of an estate,
you'll love staying here
we liked the accommodations - we stayed in the main house in room 6
the main dining room can be a little overwhelming the first time you see it - it's filled with curious and antiques and relics from the past and with three life-size mannequins that took us by total surprise.
but, once you get used to it, you'll realize that the views from there are truly breath taking.
the rooms are nice, the beds comfy and the bathrooms and linens clean, fresh and good quality.
the owner Debbie is friendly and sweet and her assistant Tucker is also a nice guy.
We saw some good auroras.
a great place to stay!

“Very charming cabin”

A Taste of Alaska Lodge

21 Jul 2007
7/8 found this review helpful

We stayed in the Log House. It was wonderful. The kitchen was bigger than I have at home. The delivered breakfasts were wonderful.

We played in the snow each evening waiting for the Northern Lights. The son of the couple who owns the inn was kind enough to call one night and wake us up when he spotted them.

If you're lucky, you will get frequent visits from Cooper, the beautiful dog, who will scratch at your door for treats. There is a jar of doggie treats on the kitchen counter.

“warm, inviting and secluded”

We spent three nights over Thanksgiving in the Log House at the taste of Alaska Lodge Lodge. The facility could not have been nicer or more cozy. It is roughly 30 minutes from the airport, and easy to find in good weather. In bad weather it might take a little more time. It is out of town and away from light pollution though there is clearly light in the distance. It is not enough to distract.

Cory (son of the owners) kept the refrigerator stocked with food, juice and snacks, and the cabin lacked for nothing. In spite of -20 degree temperatures, the hand built cabin was warm and snug. The window facing their glen provided a limited view of the Auroras, but to really observe them you need to hike out into the field and face the cabin.

Cooper, the resident dog, visited regularly and came along when we hiked the property Thanksgiving morning. It's a great property, and the views are spectacular.

There is a master bedroom downstairs, as well as the second bedroom with twin beds. There is also an indoor jacuzzi downstairs, plus a sink and a second half bath. The oil heater sits at the base of the stairs and kept the cabin cozy around the clock.

There is an extension cord to plug into your car block heater overnight.

Highly recommended for a quiet, authentic getaway in the unique landscape of remote Alaska. it's close enough to town to get what you need, but far enough away to see the sky fully. And the hosts are just splendid people.

They provide wireless internet access so you can fire up and work in a hand built cabin, in -20 degree weather with no other homes or people in sight - if that suits you.

Very mellow, very well done.

“Log Cabin was Great”

A Taste of Alaska Lodge

488/488 found this review helpful

I stayed in the Taste of Alaska's log cabin for three nights in February. The cabin was very nice and had plenty of room. It inlcuded an indoor jacuzzi and a well-stocked kitchen. Breakfast was dropped off the night before and typically included fruit, pastry, orange juice and a hot dish (to be reheated in the microwave oven).

I stayed there to catch the Northen Lights which I saw two of the three nights that I was in Fairbanks.
Overall I was very pleased with the Taste of Alaska. I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in the Fairbanks area.
