Bushplane Hangar Home on RUNWAY Chic Luxe Aurora Views ~Bushplane Escape~

This is a unique Alaskan opportunity— your own 3-bedroom in the upstairs of an airplane hangar! The hangar/home is located right in the middle of a bush plane landing strip/“float pond” community. Watch airplanes take off and land right from the bedroom window! You’ll get the full Alaskan experience, yet only minutes from town and all the local attractions.
The space
New construction, industrial chic decor loaded with amenities: Wi-Fi, 55” HDTV, luxurious sheets, high-end memory foam beds, towels & bath products. A nice deck facing the woods, propane barbecue, a sled & 2 sets of snowshoes are available for your use. A Keurig with a selection of coffee, tea & hot chocolate are complimentary. All basic utensils & cookware needed to prepare a home-cooked meal are included. The entire space is bright, open and airy, with views of Alaskan planes and the Chena Hills beckoning you outside. Airplane parking available for a fly-in guests, tie downs available on site.
Guest access
The hangar home has its own separate outdoor entrance—the entire three bedroom is available for guest use. The rest of the hangar is not available for guest use, it is where we store our personal aircraft.
Other things to note
8% Borough Bed Tax included in the total price

*We have small children ourselves, so have tried to make our place family-friendly. There is a pack-n-play, high chair, a basket of kids toys, puzzles and books and a few pre-teen chapter books for your convenience.

This area is generally very peaceful and quiet. However, as it is an aviation-centered community, there is the potential for airplane noise—planes coming and going sometimes as late as 10 pm. Please let me know if for some reason you need quiet earlier than this on any certain night and I will try to let my husband know to not go flying on that night

Unsanctioned parties will result in an additional $500 penalty fee. If the apartment is left extremely dirty and needs deep cleaning, there will be an additional $200 charged.

Late check out- we have a 10 minute grace period, after 10 minutes we charge $50 per half an hour until check out or double the nightly rate after one hour. Please be courteous of our cleaners and unless you have arranged a late check out or made other arrangements with us, check out is at 11 AM prompt!

*We do have outdoor cameras on the property that record both audio and video. They are only monitored to ensure registered guests arrive safely and in the event of any issues. They may not be covered or disabled

We love animals, but we do not allow pets in the apartment. If you have a service animal, please answer the following questions legally allowed by the ADA regarding your service dog.
1. Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?
2. What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

*We ask a $50/dog/visit pet fee for service animals. Guest remains liable for any and all damage caused by people or dog.
Under the ADA, service animals must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents using these devices. In that case, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective controls. The animal must be under control of the handler at all times therefore never left alone at any time.
If we discover a guest has misrepresented a pet as a service animal, we reserve the right to seek financial restitution, report fraudulent claims to government authorities and to evict the guest(s) without further notice. In the latter case, there will be no right to a refund for unused rent.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Cozy, warm, perfect
This property is exactly as it is described and more! Anything you need is provided and any questions answered promptly. We found it to be the perfect base of operations for our visit to Fairbanks. It is easy to get everywhere and road conditions were good even when it snowed. Can’t say enough good things. It’s cozy, warm and perfect!

The home of Fairbanks!
Originally I booked this place for 2 nights until I realized I made a mistake and was suppose to be for 3 nights. I reached out to Ruth and made that change for me without a hassle! This home was amazing! Everything was so easy here! Checking in and checking out were a piece of cake! It has everything in the kitchen and it’s just so beautiful and cozy! This place is located in a nice quiet neighborhood and the views for the windows and porch are beautiful!

Great hangar home in a quiet section of the airport on a side taxi way. The view from the back porch is to trees and hillsides. The house is very nicely furnished with nice details.

Winter Wonderland for Texans
The property is as pictured and we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Snow for the season started the day we arrived and continued through our weeks stay, making it a winter wonderland for Texans escaping the triple didgets. Loved looking out the window to the airplane in the yard that was surrounded by snow. Nice walk to where float planes take off and land. Like the single coffee capsules since I don't drink a lot of coffee. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

Excellent Get-A-Way
Our family of 4 loved the hangar and the location was great for getting around Fairbanks. It was a quiet location also! It was so nice to come to a place that was stocked with a few kitchen food items, especially after our flight landed in the middle of the night. Ruth adds some extra special touches to her rental! She was extra kind and accommodating to us! I definitely recommend this rental!

Made a last minute reservation for my family visiting from the interior. The place was very clean and had all the amenities. The owners provided clear instructions for access and followed up to make sure we were able to find what we needed. I will always check there first for future rental availability.

Fairbanks Hanger house
My family and I stayed summer of 2022. The house is very clean and unique with the airplane hanger down stairs. Don’t let the location bother you cuz once you’re inside it feel like home. You can cook which is my favorite. I have a big family that loves to eat and cooking can save us money and eating healthy at the same time. Will definitely stay here again if available in our next fairbanks adventure.
