4. Dragonfly Cabin

1 site · Lodging · Fairbanks, AK

This cozy, pet-friendly tiny home is located on 90 acres of private woodlands only 15 minutes from the airport and major shopping centers and only 5 minutes from the University. All of the woodwork, metalwork, and furniture was handbuilt by us and our friends and it has wifi, a full kitchen, and outhouse. Designed for the adventurous who appreciate craft and want to experience the Fairbanks lifestyle, the trails to our woods begin right outside your door for you and your pets to explore! You can watch the aurora from the warmth of your bed, from the fire pit, or from one of the clearings in the woods a few minutes' walk away with your furry friends. You can ski on our trails in winter or walk them in summer (be prepared for wet feet!) and discover the fascinating complexity of the ecosystem here. Here you can also see the impacts of climate change on our landscape firsthand, as the permafrost in our woods is melting, causing deep depressions and tilting trees. The cabin likely has everything you need for cooking including a hot plate, microwave, small oven, pots and pans, utensils, etc. There is water at the sink from a cistern and bucket underneath that must be emptied when full. The is no indoor toilet, but a comfortable, clean outhouse is only a few steps from your door. There is also no shower, but the laundromat only a few miles away has private showers for only a few dollars. Pets are welcome! We do ask that they not sleep in the bed as pet hair can be impossible to remove from sheets, that you do not leave your pets unattended in the cabin, and that you pick up after them. You can walk them off leash in our woods, though keep in mind there are lots of squirrels, bunnies, and other wildlife that live there, and we ask you keep them on leash if walking within our neighborhood. The cabin is only a block away from a bus stop as well as a bike trail that will take you into the heart of town.

This is a 10-acre property along the edge of the north bank of the Klutina River--a major king salmon-fishing stream that flows into the famous Copper River just one half mile downriver. That part of the property used for camping along the river is 3 acres. This is a SEASONAL location: Memorial Weekend through Labor Day Weekend with NEW LOWER prices. At this time only the riverside sites (south side of the river dike that one drives across) are available for camping or RV parking. We have no power or other hook-ups on the riverside except that water is available on site through a series of new DEC-approved pipe and spigets, along with more fire pits and more picnic tables. Showers are extra @ $5.00 a person; Laundry tokens: $3.00 per washer load or 40 minute dryer load. Bar on site. Food service coming later THIS 2024 season. WIFI is only on the north side of the dike near any of the overnight rooms or the bar. We recommend no RVs to exceed 28 feet on the river side of the dike. Very private sites and spread out--far more so than other nearby locations. The public restroom is on the north side of the dike. AND we have several budget rooms available on the north side of the dike as well. In 2024, these go for about $100/night. These all have Dish Net, WIFI, and coffee in the rooms. This property is undergoing development. There is still a fire pit on the river side, as we have considerable brush to burn (not during the camping season, but brush is typically piled on the site about the time we open). Just to the east, across the Copper River, is the 12 million acre Wrangell-St. Elias National Park. Our property is conveniently located in driving time almost exactly halfway between Anchorage and McCarthy-Kennecott. It is about 3 1/2 hours in either direction. At the Klutina you can charter a sight-seeing river boat or you can white-water raft from a point several miles up a historic trail that follows the river to its source--Klutina Lake and Klutina Glacier. You can obtain a visitors' license and fish here for salmon. You can also hike along the dike or numerous trails in the area.

Escape to Camp Gibraltar, a locally owned wilderness camp on the shores of Gibraltar Lake, just five miles south of Kokhanok Village in Southwest Alaska. Nestled at the headwaters of the Gibraltar River — one of the largest sockeye salmon runs in the world — this off-grid destination offers guests a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience Alaska’s wild beauty, cultural heritage, and peaceful solitude. 🏕️ The Space Camp Gibraltar features three cozy weatherport cabins, each outfitted with twin beds and simple furnishings to comfortably sleep up to six guests total. A fully equipt kitchen, composting toilet, and a traditional wood-fired steam bath provide everything you need for comfort in the backcountry — all while keeping your stay eco-friendly and low-impact. Our camp is designed for guests who value authentic Alaskan living, breathtaking scenery, and meaningful connections with the land and community. 🌅 What You’ll See Wake up to crystal-clear views of Gibraltar Lake surrounded by tundra hills, alpine peaks, and endless sky. Watch for brown bears, moose, eagles, and caribou, or witness the incredible sight of sockeye salmon running through the lake and river in late summer. Every evening, the sunset reflects over the still waters — a perfect end to the day. 🎣 Things to Do Fishing: Cast your line for world-famous sockeye salmon or lake trout. Explore Nature: Hike, paddle, or simply relax lakeside while wildlife passes by. Cultural Experiences: Connect with the nearby Kokhanok community through guided tours and workshops highlighting Yup’ik and Dena'ina knowledge of plants, animals, trails and subsistence fishing. Relax & Recharge: Enjoy the wood-fired steam bath, cook local-inspired meals, or sit by the campfire under the northern sky. 🚙 Access Camp Gibraltar is accessible by floatplane or UTV/ATV from Kokhanok. We help coordinate travel so your journey into this pristine wilderness is safe, smooth, and unforgettable. 🌿 What to Expect This is an off-grid Alaskan adventure — rustic yet comfortable, remote yet welcoming. We’re a 100% locally owned operation, proud to share the land’s natural riches and the deep cultural roots of our community.

You can camp at the campgrounds near the lake, but the mountain sheep herds at the top, plus this view...it's worth the effort to hike up.

Weekend Trip to Valdez Adventure Alliance

Very nice cabin and location. It would be nice to have an anchor ball for boats. The bay in front of the cabin has a lot of area that is shale not mud

You deserve to sit back and enjoy the view while he grills up the burgers. After kayaking the lake, and carrying them back, it's time to put your feet up and enjoy the scenery.

Moose cabin was everything we expected and more. Nice stay in extremely gorgeous surroundings, mountains, rivers, and occasional visits from furry friendly Wildthingz elders. Definitely our place to stay when visiting Denali.

2 nights at Kilcher Homestead MiracleMeadow

Kiltcher’s Homestead is a beautiful, relaxing, clean and safe place to have our getaway. The lighthouse was the cutest, coziest room. We enjoyed reading books from the selection in the lighthouse while sitting in the sun. We walked to the beach and made a campfire

2 nights at BRIDGE CABIN at Bear Creek Lodge

We loved the cozy cabin, the wood fired cook stove, the beautiful river right next to it, and all of the very helpful kind staff, would stay there again and again if we could! Sauna was an especially nice feature after rafting six mile river. No running water or working stove other than wood fired one, be ready to go back in time a bit, but everything you need is just over the bridge at the main cafe building

1 night at Stump Creek B&B

Stump Creek is a great property, I'd highly recommend it! We stayed in the Prospector Tent which was spacious and clean. The hosts were super nice and accommodating and there was even a breakfast included with our stay which was an amazing little touch.

Weekend Trip to Sea Otter Cabin

The Sea Otter Cabin was the perfect place to enjoy the 4th of July. The cabin is situated with a beautiful view of the water and we’re able to spend an amazing night on the beach. Jan and Dave went above and beyond to accommodate us with everything we could need. The cabin was adorable and cozy in a picturesque location.

Weekend Trip to Valdez Adventure Alliance

We decided to beach the boat and settle in for a bonfire during low tide. We saw a sea dragon, talked with an otter for a few minutes, watched a tree just stand up and walk into the forest, a small pale child sat at the fire with us for almost an hour, and then a woman (probably his mom) swam by really, really fast. 100/100 recommend.
