Think of us as a vacation rental…your home away from home, which just happens to be located on Cleary Summit, one of the best aurora viewing spots in the world! There are no restaurants or stores onsite, but we are just an easy 30 minutes drive north of downtown Fairbanks. The Aurora Borealis Lodge offers two types of lodging. The Cedar Lodge offers four private rooms with north facing windows with excellent views of the night sky. Logan’s Chalet is a spacious two bedroom Alaskan log home with an aurora viewing platform in the front yard.  Please note that there are no restaurants or food service at our property, but all rooms & the Chalet has its own private kitchen, and private bathroom.
No Smoking & Sorry, No Pets allowed.
Overnight lodging is open August 16 to mid-April.
Travel Insurance highly recommended!  Please note that we have a semi-strict cancellation policy. All rooms have a 10% NON-REFUNDABLE deposit requirement. The Cedar Lodge rooms have a 50% charge for cancellations made within 14 days, and then a 100% charge for cancellations made within 7 days of arrival. Logan’s Chalet has a 50% charge for cancellations made within 30 days, and then a 100% charge for cancellations made within 10 days of arrival. These charges apply regardless of reason, be it illness, death, natural disasters, flight cancellations, etc. And in regards to flight cancellations, with limited flights into Alaska/Fairbanks, it might be another 2, 3 or more days before the airlines can reschedule you on the next flight, which means that you’d most likely have to cancel your Alaskan trip altogether, most of which will also have a similar, or even stricter, policy. We don’t have a specific travel insurance company to recommend, but a quick online search of “Best Travel Insurance” gives you a list of viable options.  High end credit card companies (such as American Express’ Platinum Card) may offer travel insurance so be sure to check into that too.
