We stayed at Michel's apartment for 10 days in March 2026: Michel was exceptionally accommodating, friendly, and always helpful, so we felt very comfortable from the very beginning. The apartment was very well-equipped and left nothing to be desired: everything was clean, modern, and very thoughtfully designed and maintained! We were completely satisfied with our stay and would recommend the apartment without hesitation – especially for longer stays! If our vacation plans ever take us back to Yellowknife, Michel's apartment will be our first choice!

“Great stay, everything we needed and more.”
A truly exceptional stay at The Niven Lake. From the moment we arrived, everything felt thoughtful, calm, and beautifully curated. The location is stunning, the accommodation is immaculate, and the overall experience strikes the perfect balance. A wonderful place to unwind, reconnect. Highly recommended and we look forward to returning.
