Sven's Basecamp and Tinyhouses

Welcome to Sven's Basecamp and Tiny Houses, your ideal stop in Fairbanks, Alaska! We're not just a place to sleep; we're a vibrant, outdoor-focused "green oasis" designed for comfort, inspiration, and adventure. Whether you're passing through or staying a while, you'll find a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home.

Your Stay, Your Way - We offer a variety of lodging options to fit every journey and budget:

Flying taxi

aviation expeditions

We also offer flightseeing tours around Fairbanks and Denali this summer. Let’s go find the caribou in the northern Alaska Range, fly over the much underrated White Mountains just north east of town, or visit a remote Hot Springs, Lodge or abandoned goldmine. Aviation Expeditions is your Adventure expert.

Sven's powerful 1977 Cessna A185F is one of Alaska's most beloved and versatile aircraft. It can not only seat 4 (including pilot) very comfortably but it also can haul your raft, outdoor gear and almost anything you might need out in the Backcountry. Every seat is a window seat for maximum viewing ability. Every passenger will have his/her own headset not only for noise reduction but to communicate with each others throughout the flight. The “if it fits it ships” rule does not apply to my Air Taxi. We carefully weigh each of your items and calculate the loads for each mission and adventure. After all, your and my safety is paramount to all of my flights.
