Yellowknife · Frame Lake South · Aurora season
Looking for an aurora-season place to stay in Yellowknife? North of Sixty is a licensed short-term rental — 1 private bedroom suite, sleeps 4 — a quiet basecamp between chasing nights.
Yellowknife’s strongest aurora travel demand typically runs roughly October through March, with shoulder interest in late summer / early fall. Multi-night stays give you more clear-sky chances — cloud cover and solar activity still decide any given night.
We are a place to stay: a quiet Frame Lake South basecamp near downtown and YZF. Book viewing tours with licensed operators separately.
We provide the stay only and aren’t related to North of 60 Aurora Adventures. We don’t sell tours, and we can’t promise northern lights from the suite windows.
Late returns after chasing nights are normal. Warm up in the lounge, make a hot drink in the kitchenette, and sleep in the private bedroom before the next outing.
Use directories such as Spectacular NWT for licensed aurora and experience operators. We happily host guests who already booked tours — we just don’t operate them.
Planning lights or a longer trip? See the Yellowknife aurora traveler guide or one of these pages.
