Robin's Nest: Wilderness Setting Close to Town

LindiRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

My family and I absolutely loved staying at Robin’s Nest! We used both beds and the futon up in the loft and all three were comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed and then some when it came to our way around the kitchen and even device chargers we could use. We have stayed in three separate locations on our trip and Robin’s Nest was by far the best stay and best price we came across. If I ever have the opportunity to come to Fairbanks again, I know exactly where I will be staying again!
