Staff very friendly and encouraging jn trying new things like snowmobiling. Beautiful grounds in the winter, hot springs felt so good after playing in the cold. Room temps varied due to geothermal energy.

If you are looking for a place to get away, this is where to go. Very secluded, very relaxing! We did a friends solo trip. Got to see the lights every night. Many options on things to do there. Prices are super reasonable, especially for drinks and food. The staff is amazing. Only little things I have to say is...water taste terrible (like sulfer) but one of the workers let us know where to get the "good water" at. Rooms are a bit small and super hot. We had both windows open and fan but were still really hot.

My family and I stayed at Chena for 6 nights in December. The drive from Fairbanks was easy and check-in was smooth, even at 11pm. We booked two double bed rooms and they were small but clean. We ate at the restaurant on site for many of our meals. Prices are high but portions are huge. We left quite a bit of food behind unfortunately since there wasn’t a mini fridge or microwave in our room. As for the hot springs, we loved it. Plenty of locker space and hooks at the end of the board walk to hang your towel. It’s a perfect place to warm up after a day spent doing winter activities.

This was an interesting experience of being below 0 degrees for several days. The highlight was the fog sled ride with Cody as he was very friendly and knowledgeable. The ice museum was also interesting. The dip in the hot springs which felt like a hot tub with snow and ice surrounding me was a unique experience. We really enjoyed the greenhouse and geothermal plant. The aurora evening was somewhat disappointing as we chose an evening when they failed to appear. The ride in the AVT was interesting but very bumpy. I wished there had been a naturalist to explain the science behind the auroras not just provide hot drinks and snacks in a warm yurt. We had to wait two hours for the shuttle after arriving at the airport. It was an enjoyable experience.
