Such fun even on non northern lights season. Watched horses all night long. Perfect restaurant down the way called The Barn! Divine. Get the fish special. Travelled with two other couples. Our heater didn’t work, but both of theirs did. Was perfect for a fun experience different from a hotel room. Would do it again even solo for the serenity!

Loved our stay. So grateful for the eye masks as it never really got dark in May. We booked on Expedia their app had errors and couldn’t let us see our check in info. I emailed the hosts they got back to us right away with the code to the key box. Definitely loved having our own bathroom. We went to the hot springs not too far away. It was the perfect combo,
