Immerse yourself in the Great Canadian North on this retreat in the Yukon. Located just 35 min from Whitehorse, this lakefront lodge stay is close to all amenities while being far enough from the city lights to have a great view of the Aurora Borealis at night – beautifully reflected in the lake right outside your door. During the day, enjoy gourmet meals cooked fresh by the onsite chef, participate in activities offered on site and relax as you enjoy the beautiful northern scenery. Fall is a special time as the colours are rich, the wildlife is out in abundance and the Northern Lights.
