Mo's Houseboat is amazing. A cozy off-grid accommodation, perfect for being close to nature and viewing the Northern Lights. We were there in winter, so town was only a short walk away. Mo's is close to everything, but because the houseboat is out on the lake, there's no light pollution, and the Auroras are that much brighter. We watched them right from our window every night we were there (although definitely step outside, they're even brighter from the front step and beyond!). Besides the location and the house itself, Mo is a great host. She was super warm and welcoming, and gave us loads of tips and tricks for how to enjoy our time in Yellowknife to the fullest.
We'll definitely be back, and honestly can't recommend this unique space highly enough. Thanks Mo!
We stayed here in Feb 2017. It is a very unique place on the lake. Yes you are actually in the middle of a lake. However you should expect less civilized facilities such as heating (it's a general problem here if you are not staying in a hotel), showering etc. You have to keep in mind that you cannot turn up the heating too much in order to preserve energy & protect the environment. The host was nice though.
Stayed here a while back and had forgotten to leave a review. While the cabin/house was nice enough, the pump in the house is so noisy it will wake you from a dead sleep. The pump comes on anytime you or the neighbors use water for anything.
Stayed in December so expected cold, and while the heat was out, they did provide a portable heater to keep us cozy. Annoying, but stuff happens.
The biggest complaint is with the owner herself, as she tried to cancel our meetup (to get keys so we could get in) and would have left us standing outside in -17C weather. Telling us "oh I was just going to leave if you didn't get here in the next 5 minutes" when we arrived 15 or so minutes BEFORE the scheduled arrival time.
Promised us extra supplies for the included breakfast, but didn't deliver. Promised extra milk for our coffee, but didn't deliver.
Had a great time in Yellowknife, but would definitely not recommend booking here. Booked in under the wife's name, so that's why you don't see mine. Nice of the owner to ask rather than try to discredit me immediately.
We stayed at Mo's houseboat for three nights. It was such a unique experience. Mo gave us an orientation when we checked in. The houseboat is well maintained. The bed is very comfortable. We really enjoyed watching the Aurora from inside the houseboat.
Monique is a very good landlord. We watched the great aurora in the boat house. It is very interesting to go canoeing. We spent two days very happy time, I am very happy. Recommend the houseboat to all my friends to come to the town of yellownife for vacation!
