The hotel management were kind enough to let us know about the possibility of an Aurora on the night of our stay and wow! We were lucky enough to witness this wonderful spectacle. The only drawback to this hotel is the 5km access road which is riddled with potholes.

We had a family room -it was spacious, but the decor was outdated. There were lots of flies - as it's located on a farm/open area- which meant we couldn't open windows and it got very stuffy. A fan in the room would have helped.

Small, staff unfriendly. Cabin advertised with tv which was important to my brother for relaxing un the evening. It was broken, they were unapologetic. Restaurant advertised but its only made to order and you had to order ahead of time. Way off the beaten path.
