Rivers Edge Resort  

On the banks of the Chena River in Fairbanks, Alaska — close to the University of Alaska‑Fairbanks and minutes from Pioneer Park and the Pioneer Air Museum. Fort Wainwright and the Georgeson Botanical Garden are a short drive away. The resort sits on 13 acres of riverside landscape and operates seasonally (mid‑May through mid‑September).

Choose from 94 guest rooms or cottage-style river and garden views, plus an RV park with 167 sites. Rooms have private furnished patios, LED TVs, complimentary Wi‑Fi and private bathrooms with shower/tub combinations and toiletries. The vibe is authentic Alaska meets relaxed riverside lodging — think hearty comfort, local touches and easy outdoor access.

Take in river views from the terrace and garden, stroll the picnic areas, or browse the on-site gift shops. Concierge services, wedding facilities and an area shuttle (surcharge) make planning simple, while a complimentary roundtrip airport shuttle and train pick‑up keep arrivals effortless. Free parking and seasonal on‑site services round out the offering — and you can wake up to fresh river breezes.

A 24‑hour business center, 24‑hour front desk and luggage storage are on hand. There’s roughly 3,000 sq ft of conference and meeting space and complimentary wireless internet throughout the property.

Dine riverside at Chena's Alaskan Grill, serving fresh Alaskan seafood and regional flavors for dinner. Miner's Hall Café offers a breakfast buffet each morning (fee), and a bar/lounge is available for drinks and relaxed evenings by the water.
