I called and emailed and received quick response times for both. I usually do day trips into Whitehorse but decided to take it easy and stop over for the night. The tv wasn’t working but they offered a discount immediately without me even asking (not that I would have!). The room and pet fee were unbelievably affordable regardless. I had a nice conversation with Frank (I believe his name is) and the lady working inside their little shop. It was so friendly and welcoming. The store has an amazing assortment of beautiful art and crystals. My room was clean, cool, and had all the amenities I could have needed. The bed is SO comfortable. Wifi here is FANTASTIC. The location is key, nicely near Whitehorse. My dog had ample room to explore. This has been an excellent visit so far. Thank you!!

The spot was perfect for us. Even though it's listed as closed, we called and booked a room for our hoteluser in the group. The campground is eclectic, full of half dead vehicles which personally I like to nosey around. Frank was there, lovely guy with a couple of little doggos. We were next to one permanent guy, also very friendly. A black bear was seen on the edge of the campground. We paid cash $30 for electric and dump super happy with this stopover, would definitely stay again. Be aware they are not selling fuel currently. I'd say would suit all size rig/RVs, good wide access.

Absolutely amazing! the rooms for the motel section are a little small but very cozy, warm, inviting, and cutely decorated! We only stayed one night but they were so warm and welcoming to me and my family! their sweet little kitten was adorable to watch play while we checked in, and the older kitty came by the door later to the room to say hi. They were very accommodating to our doggos and our 3 rigs. Beautiful grounds and beautiful land! can't recomend them enough! we will stay here again if we get the chance!!!

Stayed here Thanksgiving weekend. They let us check in late. Very cozy, clean, and warm rooms. Most comfortable beds I've had my whole trip. The owner was very helpful giving us tips on our drive south. Unique and cute shop with good breakfast treats. Cheaper than staying in town. Great experience!

Had a real nice stop after fruitlessly looking for a telephone in the area. Incredible service, lovely people and the best scones I've head in years. The owner really helped us out, thank you so much. Nice souvenirs all over the store, aswell. Definitely worth a stop over or more.

Stopped here for gas and some snacks- the service was amazing and the staff super helpful! I forgot my wallet and they stayed up late so I could come back to get it! The shop is cute, the place looks like a great place to stay, and the staff is wonderful. The scones were DELICIOUS too! You have to stop by when you come through. We’ll be back!

The owners are absolutely lovely. They went out of their way to help us out after we broke down near their lodge. The little shop is wonderful, by far the best gift shop type boutique I have ever seen. It had lots of items I would actually love to own, not just cheap trinkets. There is also a small bakery with homemade scones.
