Whitehouse Cabins — Local services in Dawson City

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights on a recent trip to the Yukon. There are various types of accommodation on the property but we stayed in the Miner’s Tent, which is a wall tent. For an accommodation of this type, is was on the rustic side but absolutely super. The tent was very spacious with two queen (every comfortable) beds, table, couch, fridge, and an absolutely amazing propane heater that heated up the tent in no time. Two of the three days that we were there were quite rainy, and we very much appreciated the awning over the small cozy front porch. Note that the toilet and shower are in a separate building, a mere few steps away, very well lit. It is a normal toilet, not an outhouse or a composting toilet. This facility is shared by other guests in the other tents but there were never any issues with waiting for either the shower or the toilet. There is also a joint outdoor lean to kitchen facility equipped with stove, microwave, and other kitchen essentials for cooking your own meal. Despite being extremely short staffed (as seemed to be the case for so many establishments in the Yukon, especially Dawson City), Doug did an amazing job of keeping everything running smoothly. The only thing we would suggest is a little more toilet paper😀 otherwise kudos to him and this really fun, comfortable and most certainly economical accommodation option in Dawson. Very walkable to everything in...

Four of us (2 adults, 2 kids), stayed , for three nights, in a ground floor unit of the Heritage House. The unit has 3 beds. The living room has a couch, a double bed, and a single bed.There is a single bed in a niche leading into the kitchen.||||Beds were comfortable. The unit had room to move around in, particularly important when traveling with kids.||||The unit had lots of great vintage touches. The bathroom had a 50'/60's era metal medicine cabinet. The bathroom also had a generous supply of towels and toiletries for the four of us.||||The kitchen was also mid century vintage with a metal sink/cupboards unit. The stove was also vintage, but, spotlessly clean. The kitchen had a more than adequate supply of dishes,pots, and pans, cutlery, etc to prepare a family meal, also a coffee maker, kettle, toaster, and microwave. Also, little touches, like, instead of the usual powered "coffee whitener", the fridge held a generous supply of real creamers for coffee and tea.||||The common areas in back have a play area, BBQ, and washer and dryer.||||All in all, could not have asked for better...

The Heritage is there to see. Anything but just another hotel room. Some wonderful throwback features. |Spotlessly clean and we were met with a delightful welcome ||Don’t expect airconditioing. It’s a heritage apartment. Fly nets on the windows and a fan serve the purpose admirably. |It’s only a few minutes on foot into town with the walk taking you along the riverside and offering the opportunity to be joyously mindless in watching the ferry - which offers a free service for both vehicles and foot passengers: so you can ride it as many times as you like a marvel at the power of the Yukon river||Front and rear balconies enable you to catch the sun and the communal BBQ enabled is to cook some great steaks in a wooded environment. ||If you’re looking for something a little different -...
