This is why you fly 3000 miles, 14 hours.

This is why you stand out in -30 weather, slowly freezing, your camera turns into an ice cube, and dies.

I have seen a total eclipse. I have watched dozens of satellites cross the sky at night, I have seen meteors, some that broke apart and turned different colors, I have seen super moons and sun spots and so many things that make the sky a truly amazing thing to look up at. This, this was something that even with my pre-excitement I can't even begin to describe how enchanting it was to witness. I stood there for well over a hour watching the dance of light. At one point the Aurora stretched from horizon to horizon with waves of color dancing from one direction to the other.

Super 8 by Wyndham Yellowknife

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is included with the room cost, however, I prefer fresh vegetables and a variety of different kinds of healthy foods."

Northern Solace, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, living room, 5 min to Airport

10/10 Excellent

"What a fantastic find! Florence was the best and the house was wonderful. The place was clean, comfortable, and had all we needed. Florence picked us up, after midnight, at the airport and then the next morning took me around town to show me where things were and then back to the airport to get our rental. Would definitely stay again!"

Cozy Northern lights retreat in Niven Lake w/ stunning lake views

10/10 Excellent

"What an incredible stay! The home on Niven Lake was amazing, modern and cozy! We had everything we needed for 7 people to relax, cook together and have fun. The host responded immediately and with kindness when we had questions or needed guidance with something. She also texted a recommendation for us to attend a wonderful event in town. The house is walking distance into town, and we always took advantage of the trail along the lake to get us most of the way there. Warm, clean and spacious--we're already looking forward to another stay!"
