Garden Suite

Location, location, location. Some say that Whitehorse is just 20 minutes from The Yukon. While we all embrace our capital city as the economic, historic, and cultural hub that it is, it takes about 20 minutes to reach the outskirts of the city and truly appreciate the wild expansiveness of this territory. Located just 25 minutes north of the Whitehorse City Centre--a short 10 minutes off of the Alaska Highway--The Big Red Barn sits in the heart of one of the Yukon’s most popular aurora and night sky viewing areas.

Just off of the North Klondike Highway–on the ‘Marge of Lake Laberge'– The Big Red Barn is easily accessible. While a buffer of trees around our 22 acre property creates privacy, the central area is wide-open so you can fully appreciate the Yukon’s brilliant night skies, the aurora borealis, or our summer's famous midnight sun. Just off of the property, you’ll find ample walking trails including trails to the Yukon River. We're a short drive to the world-class Eclipse Nordic Hot Springs, the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, and Bean North Café on Takhini Hot Springs Road. To experience a slice of The Yukon’s grandeur while staying within easy reach of Whitehorse’s attractions and convenience, a stay at The Big Red Barn will give you the best of both worlds.

The Sweet Garden Suite is a spacious 1,100 sq. ft., one-bedroom, ground-floor apartment. It's two patio doors--one from the living/dining room and one from the bedroom--step out onto a covered patio with BBQ and outdoor seating. The apartment comes fully loaded with dishes, pots and pans, microwave, fridge, range, and an automatic espresso machine loaded with a locally-roasted coffee blend. The apartment features radiant in-floor heat and is tastefully decorated with authentic Yukon-themed movie posters, art by the Yukon’s own Emma Barr, and handcrafted furniture built from old growth fir that was repurposed from an authentic Klondike Gold Dredge. This accommodation offers a one-of-a-kind Yukon experience!
