About this property
Peaceful-Hide-Away on the River
The private suite is described as impeccably clean and is located next to the mighty Yukon River, offering a great spot to view the Aurora Borealis. The suite has a garden view and there are chickens nearby.
The suite itself is spacious and features warm feather duvets for added comfort. Guests can enjoy various activities such as having a bonfire on the river bank, canoeing to downtown, hiking or biking on the trails behind the house, bouncing on the trampoline, or relaxing in the cast iron wood-fired bathtub.
The kitchen is fully equipped and includes coffee, tea, and spices. Guests can also enjoy Starlink WiFi. Additionally, there is a tiny house on the property that can be rented to expand the available space, making it suitable for larger groups.
Note on Cancellations: Please note that if you cancel your reservation at any time, a 3% fee will be deducted from your refund to cover the non-refundable credit card processing fees we incur. We appreciate your understanding, as we are unable to absorb these costs for cancellations.
The location is near the hospital and backing onto great biking trails. It is also a short walk to the best swimming lake and is surrounded by forest. Despite the natural surroundings, guests can easily reach downtown by canoeing or biking in 10-15 minutes.
Guests also have access to a fire pit, trampoline, wood-fired hot tub (note that it takes 3-4 hours to heat the water), and a mini-deck on the river. Please note that this is a private guest accommodation and not a shared space. Guests have their own kitchen and bathroom facilities. The hosts live next door and can provide assistance and answer any questions.
The location is surrounded by nature, allowing guests to experience the Yukon's beauty. However, it is still close enough to town to go out for dining, drinks, and dancing.
Guests can enjoy a self-serve breakfast, including coffee, tea, eggs, cereal, pancake mix, and milk.
We welcome pets but ask that they remain on the main floor to reduce fur and accommodate guests with allergies. If this doesn't work for you and your pet, please let us know, and we’ll try to find a solution, which may include an additional pet fee.
Please remember to dispose of toilet paper in the garbage bin provided.

This was such a cute beautiful property to stay at. It had every thing you would need to be comfortable away from home. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their rentals. There were cute touches all over the house, and the messages around the house were my favorite part. IYKYK :) Thank you Amber for making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Don't hesitate to book here, you will have a fabulous time and feel like you are further away from town than you actually are.

Excellent place to stay in Whitehorse
We loved staying at the Garnett’s while our travel trailer was getting repaired. We work remotely so having fast internet and a quiet place was required and that exactly what hat we got. The farm was peaceful, good views of Yukon River and Whitehorse as well as being 5-10min from anywhere in Whitehorse. Amber was a great host and was an easy to communicate with. Bonus - amber provided farm fresh eggs for our stay!
