Nestled among the Willows
My wife and I were most happy with our stay in Haines Junction. Though a small town, people were friendly and pleasant. The house was gorgeous and easy to make ourselves at home in, all as promised. Advice to travellers, there is only one small grocery store with limited stock (we bought the last container of milk on our first day and they never got more up to when we left) so might want to plan ahead a little. On the other hand, there is a wonderful bakery/deli/coffee shop which was amazing. Close to Kluane Park (also amazing). We’d recommend staying here and making sure to visit Kathleen Lake!! Crazy amount of wildlife on the drive up/back from Muncho Lake to Whitehorse! Donna was great to deal with and provided little subtleties for us and for little Ellie :)

Perfect Kluane stay
Hosts were accommodating and quick to respond to our requests. They added some thoughtful touches such as fudge and pancake mix for us to enjoy. The home was beautiful and very well appointed. A perfect place to spend some time exploring Kluane. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Solitude
Haven in the Willows is a beautiful home for those looking for a peaceful sojourn and gateway to one of the most spectacular national parks on the planet. The hosts are wonderfully kind and welcoming, providing us with everything we needed. When we arrived at their log home in the midnight sun, we found orange flowers and a package of artisan treats and local coffees on the kitchen table for us to enjoy. Every day spent in the home was a vacation. The home has everything.. The only regret is not being able to live in it full time; always hearing the sound of silence; and breathing in the solitude and the seclusion of a place so magical that it is hard to put into words.
