Les propriétaires sont très accueillants, sympathiques, Brent a eu la gentillesse de s'adresser à nous en français aussi souvent qu'il le pouvait, blagueur, amusant, nous avons fait une marche dans Cottonwood Trail de 14,4 kilomètres avec lui qui nous servait de guide en compagnie de 2 autres touristes. Il nous a donné beaucoup d'explications sur la faune et la flore locales. La randonnée a duré 7 heures mais le temps a passé très vite.

We did not want to leave! Roger and his daughter Sage were great hosts for our photography group. They have found the perfect balance between eco-friendliness and comfort. The cabins are cosy, the breakfast baskets a real feast, and the facilities are well maintained. We definitely will be back.

Kathleen. Absolutely lovely early spring getaway. Well placed for daily adventures around Kluane to Sheep Mtn or the Pass. Service was great. Roger was very attentive, making sure we had wood and water for our little birthday treat. Kitchen surprisingly well appointed with cookware, you may want to bring a knife of your own.

Our stay at Kluane Cabins was phenomenal. It was our first time in the Yukon and at Kluane National Park. The location of these cabins was perfect. Roger was a very welcoming host and helped us get settled into our accommodation. The view from our cabin was so nice, and really made us feel immersed in the nature there. The cabin was also decorated very tastefully. We were a short walk away from the main washrooms/showers and also had our own private outhouse very close to our cabin. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for accommodation close to the park!

Roger is a wonderful host who attentively and promptly answered all our many questions, and provided a cozy and clean cabin for us to use as a base for hiking in the area.

Considering that the property is off grid, the infrastructure is not bad: flush toilets, hot showers, and practically unlimited water (although all of the above were external to the cabin), and an equipped kitchen with a gas stove.

The beds were comfortable (although a bit short for me; I'm 189cm) and the duvets were warm.

Given how late the sun sets in summer, it would have been convenient to have proper blackout blinds to keep the sun out in the evenings and mornings, but during our stay the rooms were pretty bright most of the night.

It's important to realize that the area is absolutely crawling with mosquitos. It's not really possible to hang out outside, as the swarm will immediately descend. It's impeccable to wear long sleeves at all times and be covered in DEET 24/7 to not turn into a pin cushion (and even then bites are inevitable).

The nearest shop is in Haines Junction, which is not extremely well equipped, so it's useful to shop on the way (ideally in Whitehorse). There is, however, a well stocked bakery "Village Bakery" in Haines Junction that serves bread, cake, pastry, coffee, and even beer for desperate times!

Great cabin in an amazing setting. Trails on the property and Kathleen Lake across the road, had a great ski, walk and saw a Dipper on the near by creek! The dog also had a great time. The kitchenette had all we needed and we had ample wood and water supplied (winter conditions). There are several cabins but they are situated in a way you feel pretty isolated and the view from the King's Throne was fantastic.

We loved every minute of our stay at dog-friendly Kluane Cabins. The clean, bright yet cozy cabins are situated each in their own area, immersing you in the peacefulness of the forest and (nearby) mountain surroundings. The off grid cabins are well-equipped with water jugs and everything you’d need in the kitchenette (including teas and locally roasted ground coffee). There is no fridge so if needed do bring a cooler and ice packs. Gracious hosts Roger and Fiona are warm, friendly and very pleasant to communicate with. Thoughtful hosts; they kindly refroze our ice packs part way through the stay. The bed was very comfy, as are the chairs on the front deck where you can take it all in. ||The outhouses are the nicest I’ve seen (and smelled): decorated and even with a vanity. There is also a central washhouse with 2 private bathrooms with hot showers. It's a small detail but I appreciated the naturally scented and eco-friendly soaps used throughout the property. ||The cabins are a scenic 20 min drive from the village of Haines Junction, and right across the road from the entrance to the Kathleen Lake beach and trail area. Can’t wait to get back!|

My friend and I brought our kids here for a little fall getaway. It was the perfect cabin for 3 kids and 2 adults. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire area. Everything was so well set up and thought through. The whiteboard message area by the bath house was a big hit with the kids as the could leave pictures and messages for Roger and were so excited when he wrote them back😊. We will definitely come here again! What a find!
