Thankfully the night of 15th Jan,2018 we had chosen to move far north outside Fairbanks towards Arctic Circle where the sky blessed us with being clear. With the weather and aurora forecasts changing overnight, its becoming hard to plan accordingly for catching them in full action these days. This winter’s trip began with two cloudy nights when it was supposed to be Active! Chasing the lights is like a drug and every time we try to think ‘enough is enough’, yet end up wondering, What lies more..?!!  
Gambling with the bone chilling weather and the aurora forecasts before every step to the Alaskan arctic has moved beyond the point ‘Ohh were we lucky?!’ .. 
This may not have been the extraordinary show for us, but definitely a fiery kickstart to 2018. 

Advice from the Northern Lights say:

Show your true colors.
Glow with excitement.
Have a magnetic personality.
Stay full of wonder.
Lighten Up!! ☝️

Staffs here are OK but poorly managed. My room wasn't ready for check in time. After my check in, I found that the room was missing refrigerator. Previous guest's (?) hairs in shower, sink and bathroom floor... ... Nothing devastating but poorly managed.

Temu bedsheets and towels, terrible quality, like sleeping in a plastic bag. Only a few hand towels, no shower towels. One of the rooms is like a closet, without electrical outlets. Late check out will cost you 50/hour, and the owner will sit in the car at the front door to make sure you leave before ...

This property was perfect for our last night in Alaska visiting our son. Very clean, easy to find, and well maintained. Owner was very accommodating, offering a later check out if needed. We will consider staying again if we visit again.
