Dakota Dunes Resort

These Are the 7 Best Indigenous–Owned Hotels in Canada - AFAR

"Located on Whitecap Dakota First Nation territory just outside Saskatoon, this 155-room resort complex offers a broad range of amenities—casino, golf course, swimming pool, restaurant and multiple conference rooms—and an expansive lobby with gathering spaces centered around fires and Indigenous art highlighted throughout the property (including a bold guest-room graphic derived from a photograph of Chief Darcy Bear’s headdress). On-property cultural programming through Dakota Dunes Adventures includes Pow Wow dance presentations, bannock-making sessions and reconciliation workshops to foster understanding between Indigenous and non-Indigenous visitors, and nearby attractions such as Wanuskewin Heritage Park provide additional Indigenous-led culinary and interpretive experiences." - Debbie Olsen
