It was an amazing experience. The room was cosy with heaters, a heated mattress and cosy lights. We saw the northern lights on display for about 2 hours looking straight out from the comfort of our bed. Highly recommend!

Better signage a to where to locate the "Service Building" especially after nightfall. We arrived within the desired check-in window of 4 pm - 7 pm, but it was pitch back (October 28th) and there were no signs as to which way to proceed at the fork in the road to easily find the Service building and retrieve our key and igloo number.

The aurora was a truly fun experience! I think of it more as clamping instead of a hotel like experience. Nature does come into the igloo. Our igloo did not have clear windows for viewing, so we had to go out and wipe them ourselves. There were also lots of spiders to deal with (including on the bed). Again, it is nature and like camping but I feel like that could have been minimized. Communication and check in was flawless except for the door was hard to open. It is explained but still difficult to open. We enjoyed our stay but would not stay more than one night!

The room door was kinda broken and it was difficult to use/open. There's some cobwebs around the room too and it lacks some basic amenities.

Loved this experience! So glad the weather cooperated and we saw northern lights while laying in the bed. The first night we had a rainstorm and it was so cool to listen to in the igloo. Everything was clean. Heating was adequate. Floors were heated and bed also! I would definitely stay here again!

Nice Glamping experience with some caveats

Stayed in the summer and very impressed when I arrived at the unique space and bathrooms. There was lots of closet space and a fridge! It was actually hot in August (66-68 degrees, tank top weather). When I pulled back the curtains, huge flies everywhere. Killed at least 6 and still some. Also, my glasses changed to dark the whole time, so lots of UV exposure in there (can close curtains, but top open). Warming blankets, so toes warm at night when cold. Overall an interesting experience save for the two negatives above.

Wonderful and unique place to stay. Make sure to get the igloo with the bathroom. We were surprised how clear the dome was to see the stars and we were so lucky to see an incredible aurora from the comfort of our bed.

Beautiful landscape

The view was incredible with wild horses running during sunset. Weather didn’t cooperate for northern lights viewing. The booking wasn’t clear on the bathroom situation, so we had booked the separate bath house mistakenly. Would recommend booking the built in bathroom as there is also some space to put luggage.
