The room was awesome though there was a small spot on the extra blanket and the chair cushions were a little stained. Cannot stress enough how cool this experience was.

Beautiful property! Clean, cozy and very unique! Check in was a little strange - there is an international number, on a sign, to call when you arrive. That is how you find out which igloo is yours and how to enter, etc. I was a little worried, but the phone was answered quickly and check in went smoothly. Very neat experience! Would return!

This was a beautiful experience to see the northern lights. However, the self check in was a bit confusing. I wasn’t aware of the process. I was expecting to see and speak with a live person. However, the number given for help was very helpful.

What an incredible unique experience. I loved having hte bathroom attached and to have a cozy bed to climb into. Note that there are few space heators to turn on and even a heated bed topper which i didnt see until the morning. It would be great to have a welcome note that talks about all that and if they did I may have missed it. One caviat is that despite it was cool to see the auroras from bed, it was suprisingly bright when you stepped out your door to capture it. It should be common practice to say turn off your patio light at night to create a darker enviroment for photos.

These igloos were so cool! Our only issue were the door handles. The property had to provide instructions on how to use the handle and it was not real helpful. We were standing in the snow freezing trying to follow the instructions. It took so long we had to go sit in the car for a few minutes to warm up. I imagine this must have been an issue for others which explains the instructions and it was equally hard to get ok of the room each day. I would suggest changing the handles. It made us feel unsafe to be stuck inside not able to get out.

Nice to see the Northern Light on the both night I stayed. But the igloo is way too cold in the Winter and this Winter is not as cold, even with 3 heaters on plus very loud, I couldn’t hear the phone ring or alarm. Other than that — more basic amenities in the room, would be nice such as body lotion or a robe. And no clear instruction on how to lock the door from the inside or outside. Struggle opening the door when came in. It wasn’t bad after figured it out.
