"The rooms were hot, air conditioning did not work. Key did not work on door, two different key sets. They moved us to another room. We are traveling with a group of 14. All rooms were hot. It is unfortunate that the property was not in great working order at the beginning of the season. They had plenty of time to make things right before they opened."

When is the best time to go to College?
The best time to visit College, Alaska, depends entirely on your preferred activities, with distinct advantages to both the summer and winter months.

For those seeking warmer weather and extended daylight, the summer months, particularly June through August, are ideal. Temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 50°F to 70°F, making it comfortable for outdoor activities. This is the prime season for exploring the nearby Creamer's Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge, hiking the local trails, or enjoying the midnight sun. The University of Alaska Fairbanks campus is also fully active during this time, with its museums and botanical gardens open to visitors.

If experiencing the aurora borealis is a priority, the winter months, from September to April, offer the best viewing opportunities. While temperatures can drop significantly, often below 0°F, the dark, clear nights provide an excellent backdrop for the northern lights. Winter also allows for activities like cross-country skiing on groomed trails, ice skating, and dog sledding adventures. Many local accommodations cater to aurora watchers, offering wake-up calls when the lights are visible.
