Wedgewood Resort

Great location and wonderful staff. We loved the nearby walking trails and proximity to Creamer's Fields. The room was spacious and comfortable. The automobile museum on site was incredible but it will be relocating to a larger facility closer to town.

Me and my wife spent 43 days from mid July to the end of August at Wedgewood Resort, in the Harden Lodge. We were disappointed in that the unit was in critical need of renovating. The couch and loveseat were threadbare. The carpet was dirty and needed to be restretched. TV was substandard. WiFi was adequate and we were able to use a computer to stream premium channels. On the positive side, our unit was quiet, we rarely heard people upstairs or next door, We had a lovely view of the lawn, shrubbary, spruce and birch trees from our patio door and windows. There were nice wooded walking trails, one leading to Creamers Field wildlife preserve. There was also and a wonderful antique auto museum on the property.

In August of 2025, I spent two nights at Wedgewood Resort, having selected it randomly off the Internet, for my first visit to Fairbanks. It is somewhat reasonably priced, offers huge apartment-like rooms and promised a shuttle to/from the airport and train station. Friendly, polite and helpful front desk folks and shuttle driver. Note the doors into the lobby had no automatic open button. I was picked up promptly at the train station the evening I arrived but the shuttle bus was quite tall and it was very difficult for me to get in and out of it. It would not be feasible for someone in a wheelchair to use the shuttle. I booked over their web site, requested an accessible room and confirmed on check-in that the room was accessible with a walk-in shower. I was told yes it was accessible and had a walk-in shower. Imagine my surprise when the shuttle driver dropped me off at a building with three steps and no hand railings. That in NO WAY is accessible. The shuttle driver helpfully took my luggage inside and while my unit was on the first floor, there are no elevators. I truly struggled with the steps. Once inside the unit, it was painfully apparent this is NOT an accessible room. While the living room is quite large, the kitchen counters are standard height. The bathroom is most assuredly not wheelchair accessible and there was no open space under the sink. A wheelchair user couldn't possibly use the toilet, there were no grab bars and the bathroom was quite small, and instead of a walk-in shower, there was a tub with two grab bars. There was no shower chair or transfer board. You could possibly get a wheelchair next to the tall bed but transfers would be extremely difficult. The property is dated, there is very little in the way of dishes in the kitchen but there is a full-size fridge, oven, microwave and coffeepot. It seemed reasonably clean. I was told by the shuttle driver that leaving at noon would mean a shuttle driver would be available but alas, that was not the case, and I had to order an Uber for the ride to the airport. Again, there is a disconnect in what employees are telling customers and the reality of how things work. My challenge to management is to educate your company and your staff on what constitutes an accessible room. It should be ADA compliant on all levels and this means WHEELCHAIR accessible. I requested an accessible room because I struggle with stairs (particularly stairs with no railings), short toilets and no grab bars for the toilets. While you overall have a nice property in spite of the dated rooms, I would not stay here again unless you could assure me of a truly accessible room.

Fully equipped hotel/apartment with a kitchen and cooking pots and pans. Plenty of space to relax in the room. Living room allows for additional sleeping.

overcharged from our reservation by $46 per night Shuttle from airport took an hour when resort is 15 minutes away and a really little thing but makes a big impact in my book....get bigger thicker towels!!!

We felt like living in the apartment. We enjoyed our stay. We also stayed in Bear Lodge which is next to Wedgewood Resort because we met our group that came later. We enjoyed wandering around Fairbanks like Morris Thompson Cultural and Natural History Center, Pioneer Park, North Pole, Alaska, Riverboat on Chena River, and others.
