Northern Lights Getaway

World-class aurora-viewing and outdoor recreation paired with a commitment to top-notch customer service has made Aurora Village the industry leader. Owned by the Morin family, who are Cree and Metis originating from Fort Resolution, this unique experience blends the awe of mother nature with the Morin family way of life: blending traditional lessons with modern amenities.

While northern lights and cold nights go together (it’s part of what makes our environment spectacular), you don’t have to be uncomfortable! Aurora Village is the only place in the world offering custom-made, heated outdoor viewing seats that swivel 360 degrees, so you can catch every angle of the aurora borealis. A consultation with local Elders resulted in a unique design resembling traditional sleighs, which are guaranteed to keep you cozy and covered. With five viewing hills located throughout the expansive wilderness property, you can quietly absorb the unobstructed wondrous night sky in seclusion or share the experience with a group.

White teepees of the village dot the perimeter of a pristine lake so that every visitor has a place to call “home,” complete with a warm wood stove and your choice of hot drinks. From November to April, Aurora Village also transforms into a daytime winter wonderland offering the quiet joys of snowshoeing, the exhilaration of driving a dog team across the white landscape or the thrills of a giant snow slide.
