About us

Welcome

Located just sixty miles from Fairbanks, the Resort offers Alaskan comfort and adventure

Come for a soak in our natural hot springs or spend the night to really enjoy all that Chena Hot Springs Resort has to offer

Today, many local, state, national and international visitors enjoy Chena's natural outdoor hot springs, adult rock lake (ages 18+), indoor family pool, the gorgeous scenery or any of our numerous attractions.

We are best known for our natural hot springs, awesome Ice museum, great aurora viewing and our geothermal powered facilities.

We are the most accessible and developed hot spring resort in Alaska's Interior. This amazing place was discovered in August 1905 and became famous for curing crippled prospectors of their aches and pains. Fairbanks residents would take the near day trip each way to enjoy the healing waters and soak.

The magic of our Aurora Viewing Tour... 💚⠀ ⠀ Reposting @theman_kave:⠀ ...⠀ "This Is What We Came For ✨ Conditions the first 2 nights were bad but we got lucky our last night and the sky cleared up. We rode in an amphibious tank for 30 min to our site on top of a mountain where it was remote. Then it was a waiting game for the next 5 hours for the aurora lights to come out and play. Anddd at 1am it came out!"⠀ ⠀ #chenahotsprings #auroraboreal #aurora #tour

Some pretty dark roads 💚⠀ ⠀ Reposting @bugsonmyface:⠀ ...⠀ "I texted a photo of northern lights to my beautiful friend this week who is in the midst of tragedy and heartbreak - and she responded with, “This is incredible... There is always light.” Man oh man, what a perspective. Life will take us down some pretty dark and scary roads but we have to remember to look up. His grace is enough to get us through, and there is ALWAYS light."⠀ ⠀ #alaska #northernlights #auroras #auroraboreal #travel #awesomedestination
