Blue Raven B&B

Yellowknife


In a quiet, idyllic location on Latham Island, with great bay views from the lounge and deck, this welcoming spot feels like a rural retreat. There are three neat, compact rooms, two of which have a 'ladder loft' with an extra sleeping area. You can use the kitchen and you'll generally feel like you're staying at a friend's place.
