Three of us stayed here for two nights in a two double bed cabin. We arrived after 35 hours travelling a little after midnight. Our pick-up from the hotel arrived in about 15 minutes. The girl on reception was rather bored and barely indicated where we should find our cabin, which was 123. The bathroom was quite small, with the... More

Stayed here twice in August 2012…once our first night in AK, and then again for two nights when we finished an Arctic Circle tour. First time we checked in the front desk was wonderful. Second time we checked in, the front desk staff was rude and dismissive. After waiting in line for a good fifteen minutes, I was greeted by... More

What a lovely surprise awaited us at the end of a 14 hour travel day--a beautifully decorated private cottage on a curving street of the same. Each had variation in the color of trim and the huge hanging floral baskets that hung from each eave, Behind each cottage is a patio whose privacy is bolstered by well tended hedges. Two... More

My wife and I stayed here on the nights of 5th and 6th of September. It was accommodation provide by Alaskan Tour and Travel and hit the spot. We had a small cabin Room 130, that had all we needed. The shuttle to town, (it is a little way out) was good for us to go in have a look... More

We really enjoyed staying at the River's Edge Resort. Loved the cottages, very cute and well kept. Very clean, great service, and very nice atmosphere. Beds were very comfortable. They had a free shuttle that took you to various places, don't remember exactly all the stops but it took us to the Morris Thompson Visitor Center in downtown Fairbanks where... More

Close to airport but not far from city. Very tidy. Private, well-kept and well-appointed, comfortable modern separate cottages clustered together around parking area. We stayed here in late August on last night of 2 weeks of travel and prior to an early morning flight. Perfect choice. Pretty hanging and potted planters throughout property full of blooming flowering plants were cheerful.... More

Stayed in a cottage 2 nights. The cottage was very clean and neat. The bathroom was updated but small. The staff was very friendly. The cottage was pretty private but near the highway (wasn't noisy), would have preferred a riverfront view but away from all of the buses that idled near the lobby. Very neat grounds (the tons of rocks... More

We only spent one night but really enjoyed the cabins. Like others have mentioned, it is nice not to have a common wall with another room. We thought the cabins were very comfortable and good sized. The fact that I didn't rate it excellent has nothing to do with the resort. It is because it is so far from everything.... More

My wife and I stayed here on the first night of our land cruise in Alaska. The property is well maintained and the cottages are very quiet since there is no connecting wall to your neighbor. The grounds are pretty, although we arrived too late to enjoy them. Not many of the cottages are on the river with a view,... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
An afternoon on a sunny riverbank exemplifies the best of Interior Alaska; this place is built around that knowledge. Trim little cottages stand in a grassy compound along the gentle Chena River, where guests can fish for grayling. Inside, each light, airy cottage is an excellent standard hotel room, with high ceilings and two queen beds. Outside, they’re like a little village, where guests can sit on the patio, watch the river go by, soak up the midnight sun and socialize. ... more   less
