Our stay at the Northern Lights Resort and Spa was fabulous!!! We stayed for four nights and saw the Northern Lights three of those nights. |Even though seeing the lights are not something that can be guaranteed, the staff made it as easy as possible to watch for them. First of all, they have a campfire going from 10 pm to 1:30 am to keep you warm while you keep watch, with s’mores, hot chocolate, hot tea, and even libations available. If you don’t want to go outside to watch, many of the cabins have large windows facing the direction of the lights. And, if you happen to nod off and the lights come out, they will ring a bell in the rooms to let you know they are out.|The three meals a day were all delicious and offered plenty of fruits and vegetables. The dining room was set up so you can visit with those around you if you choose. We got to know everyone there.|The owners and staff were phenomenal! Every single one of them were kind and generous and made sure we had everything we needed. They were also a lot of fun and we had some good conversations. The massage therapist was so good - we both had one of the best massages we’ve ever had!|Dog sledding was really fun, the trip to Whitehorse was historically fascinating, the trip to the wildlife reserve was interesting and the hot springs were relaxing. We enjoyed all the activities.|I highly recommend Northern Lights Resort and Spa!!! We came away from there with a great experience and new friends!

Fantastic stay and experience. We did the 5 day package and lucky enough to see the lights 3 nights. We stayed in glass chalet 1 and saw the lights from our bed! Amazing! Room and bath were spacious and well appointed. Meals in the main lodge were delicious and the entire staff so accommodating. Local guides and excursions (hot springs and dog sledding) were well curated and worth it. Highly recommend!

We stayed at Northern Lights Resort March 31 and April 1 and 2 of 2025 and added the extended package to stay in Whitehorse for two nights before our resort stay. Our weekend guide, Juan, was charming, well organized, and took good care of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our daytime outings to the Yukon Wildlife Reserve and Eclipse Nordic Hot Springs and, even though we only saw a tiny bit of auroras, still enjoyed our night outings at the camp which included a nice warm utilitarian cabin, snacks, and outdoor fire pit. Our next three nights at Northern Lights Resort & Spa were extraordinary! The property snuggled in the woods (where one can be as active or relaxed as they choose) is beautiful and we felt thoroughly pampered throughout our stay. Our glass chalet was lovely, clean, and very comfortable. The breakfasts were simple but very nice and lunches and dinners were beautifully presented and gourmet delicious! We enjoyed interacting with Chef James and appreciated his mindful attention to our variety of food sensitivities and preferences. Hosts Tobi and Lynn and their entire staff were warm and inviting. We highly recommend taking advantage of the optional activities. We especially enjoyed dog sledding with veteran Iditarod mushers and their dogs, snow shoeing and kick sledding the property’s paths, relaxing in the sauna and having a massage from their talented masseuse. Of course, the primary reason for the trip was to see the auroras which we were fortunate to experience mildly a couple of nights and brilliantly on our final evening. We went with a group of six and also enjoyed the intimate family-atmosphere which allowed us to engage with and enjoy getting acquainted with the other guests. We will consider visiting again and would definitely choose the package which includes five nights at the resort This is a unique and magical experience!

My stay at NLR&S was outstanding. The hospitality of all the staff was genuine. Coming from the US in this political climate made me wonder how we would be received. Everyone was so friendly and took care of our every need. The feel is very international because staff comes from all over. I loved conversations around the campfire while out seeing the aurora. Daytime activities like snowmobiling, ice fishing, and dog sledding were adventuresome. In Whitehorse don't miss the museum and '98 Hotel. We stayed 7 nights which was perfect for us. It is a great trip for couples, friends, and families...can't wait to take my kids. There are 7 cabins so it feels intimate. I can't stop talking about this vacation with my friends. It was one of my all-time favorite vacations!!

Tobi and the whole staff could not have been more gracious. The food was very good. Although they have a small wine list - the wines are very well chosen and relatively inexpensive. We stayed in one of the glass window chalets. It lets you eye the lights (or clouds) without even leaving your bed. During the day we had spectacular views of the mountains. We also took advantage of their in-house masseuse - she is wonderful. We really enjoyed the dogsled ride. You actually get to know the sled dogs. They are incredibly lovable. The surroundings of the resort are very quiet. Last but not least - we saw the Northern Lights! Just a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Northern Lights Resort and Spa. We were lucky to see the aurora on 3 of the 4 nights we stayed. The staff and facilities are great, as was the food. We enjoyed the dog sledding and walking the trails on the property. The hot stone massage was excellent. I would highly recommend this location if you are hoping to see the aurora. There are only 16 guests so you get a very personalized experience. The campfire and alarm in the room made it much easier to stay up late to see the aurora. The aurora on our last night there was spectacular!

Our bucket list visit to see the Northern Lights was fantastic! We saw the Northern Lights 4 out of the 5 days we were in the Yukon! Stayed 2 nights in Whitehorse then 3 nights at the terrific Northern Lights Resort & Spa. Lynn, Tobi, Richard, Patrick, Uli, James, and the whole team at Northern Lights Resort were so welcoming and took care to make our adventure memorable and special! Great food, hiking trails, sauna! |Highly recommend taking the Wildlife Preserve/Hot Springs excursion and renting the Winter Gear Kit. Also the Glass Chalets are the best - you can stay in the comfort of your room and watch the stars and sky light up! |Tobi, Lynn, thanks again for making our visit so fabulous!

We had the best time during our stay! The glass chalet was super clean and cozy. We loved the view during the day and at night from the large windows. All of the staff are super friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about Yukon. We loved getting to chat with everyone. The food at the hotel was amazing for all meals. They were able to accommodate my vegetarian diet and everything was delicious! We were lucky to see the Auroras twice and really enjoyed the bonfire viewings with the other guests. We also loved the activities offered through the hotel. We had a blast snowmobiling and dog sledding. & loved walking around the trails on the property. They really have something for everyone!

While we chose Northern Lights Resort to get a glimpse of the Northern Lights, the fact that heavy cloud cover prevented a good view did not detract from the wonderful hospitality Toby and his staff delivered. We travelled to Whitehorse with good friends, and the cozy accommodations, delicious food and impeccable service made for a wonderful stay. Every one working there went above and beyond to make us feel special, constantly asking if there was anything they could do to make our stay even better. Since the chance of seeing the aurora was totally out of any one's control, the fact that we so enjoyed our stay is a testament to how the Northern Lights Resort has mastered the art of hospitality. We are pescatarian and every meal provided an added option to suit our dietary restrictions. The dog sledding, fireside evening gathering, various tours and the sauna options were wonderful as well. The price is steep, but their success at providing a great experience in subzero temperatures won us over.

Excellent experience here. The owners, Toby and Lynn were fantastic. Some activities were sadly cancelled due to weather but they were always actively communicating with guests making sure we know. When I booked this adventure, I didn't know what to expect but the resort took care of everything from organizing winter clothing for you that fits you, picking you up at the airport, scheduling adventures, etc etc. if you would like to go into town then just let the owners know and they make sure your cared for. Toby also helped me figure out my camera to take pictures of the northern lights which was amazing. The food was one more thing I didn't know what to expect but the quality of the food and presentation was beyond expectations and they take into account food sensitivities. The food not only tasted amazing but the presentation was top notch. I can't think of anything to complain about this resort.

A must stay place if you're visiting Yukon Whitehorse, the owners (Toby & Lynn) & the staff were are very pleasant and welcoming. We arrived with high expectations after reading all the reviews on trip advisor, and we left not at all disappointed. Highly highly recommended to anyone who want to stay at a clean and friendly resort.

Luxury B&B | Best Hosts | Amazing Aurora Light Display $$$ A couple years ago, Garrett and I decided to cross an item off our bucket list: the Northern Lights. If you're looking to see the lights, do it right with staying here. Hands down, this is the place to stay at. B&B hosts, Wolfgang and Renate, are the most welcoming and accommodating hosts we've ever met. They love chatting with you, hearing and sharing stories, provided so many tips of the area to check out and do, and provided amazing daily European breakfasts and other amenities. +3 cozy cabins and 1 room upstairs in their house +hot tub outside +quiet and beautiful scenery in the woods +chance to see wildlife! +Spa We stayed at the Enzian cabin and loved it. There was a small kitchen in this unit, which was nice to have as an option if we wanted to stay in and cook. The entire place is clean, organized, cleaned daily, and in excellent condition. Location: not far away from downtown Whitehorse. The highway is super wide and paved, and we didn't have a hard time getting or finding this place. We highly recommend this place and plan to return again soon.

This was the most amazing stay I could've imagined, and not too expensive either. It's a bit outta town, but that came to be a blessing. And when you pull up, they actually come outside to greet you which was a nice surprise. The "room" itself has the most amazing view, and it's got high ceilings, but a quaint size. The property is well sized for a simple walk around. And oh my goodness the food!!! They recently started offering an evening meal, and I was hesitant because I wanted to try some of the well renowned local spots, but decided to give it a try, and thank goodness for that. That meal was the most amazing food I've probably ever eaten. And I had someone to talk to the whole time, which was nice. They truly care about your satisfaction and want to do all they can to make your stay the best it can be. They even remembered my name the whole time.

Wolfgang, Renate, Stephan, Julia Christmas 2019 in Whitehorse Yukon Canada...this ain't Texas for sure. Wonderful, Beautiful, Relaxing... one of the most professional and courteous and friendly staff that we have ever stayed with. The Resort and Spa was immaculate. Wolfgang and Renate was always accessible, on top of our itinerary and needs throughout our week stay. My wife was celebrating a milestone birthday, Wolfgang and Renate made us feel like family when then presented cake with candles and a special gift, what a great way to help us celebrate that day. The Chalets were Homey and very comfortable. Getting cold was not a problem at all when temperatures hit -21F, the propane fireplace was Great and many times needed to be turned down while getting all the winter gear on. Stephan was a pro at ice fishing on Hidden Lakes. Then the hot chocolate and storytelling in the Teepee while looking for the Northern Lights were joyful evenings with everyone that came out and braved the cold. Julia was a Gem. Between our tour of the Wildlife Preserve and the Takhini Hot Springs, Julia was more like family instead of a tour guide. Then came the picture taking during the Northern Lights and star gazing. The 'Torch' writing during the 25 second shutter timer setting on the camera to capture her sky writing skills was an added gift and something to not miss at midnight. Pictures of this can be found on their Flickr.com page. And what can I say about Chef Brendan...the meals, the presentation was so very well done, this truly added to our stay. I would like to say Thank you to Wolfgang for having such a Great extended team with the people he teams up with to provide Great adventures. This was truly a complete package a once in a lifetime Christmas vacation in the Yukon. Hans and Susie were the Dog sledding Adventure they were so nice, So much fun with them and the dogs. I would do this over and over again. Between the beautiful scenery, the sound of the dogs and no city noises, no cars, this was definitely a Bucket List thing to do. Spending time in the wonderful warm furnished wood burning stove tent sipping hot cider and snacking on chocolate liquor beans overlooking the Yukon river was a treat in itself. Another fine example of going the extra mile for guest, Hans is the only tour that does Dog sledding at night. The two plus hours at 9:30pm into the woods and on the trails (with no lights), is truly an adventure. Then the snowmobiling with Up North Adventures was a complete trill for Laura's birthday. The views from atop the mountain looking down on Whitehorse on one side and Fish lake on the other. What a speed demon she became running across Fish Lake after coming down the trails from the mountains. Wolfgang has a top notch rapport with the other tours that are a option while staying with him and Renate, they were definitely an extension of the professionalism expected by Northern Lights and Spa. In conclusion, I truly recommend Wolfgang and Renate and their whole wonderful staff at Northern Lights and Spa in Whitehorse, Yukon Canada. Thank you so very much, Robert and Laura

A two-night stay this summer was perfect for a quick, romantic getaway. The cozy cabin, bubbling jacuzzi, full european breakfast, attentive and friendly staff, and stunning scenery (including wildlife) left nothing to be desired. Without a doubt, one of the best places to stay near Whitehorse!
