NWT Dreamin' is a rare opportunity to own a successful, turnkey fly-in wilderness lodge in Canada's pristine Northwest Territories. This secluded retreat offers year-round adventure, catering to outdoor enthusiasts from around the world.

Just a 20-minute floatplane flight from Yellowknife, the lodge balances remote seclusion with cost-effective accessibility. In winter, adventurous guests can arrive via snowmobile or skis, while traditional access is provided by float or ski planes.

Situated between two lakes, the lodge provides unparalleled fishing, stunning aurora borealis displays, and outdoor activities in a true wilderness setting. Guests return year after year for the world-class fishing, aurora viewing, and a unique floating tent glamping experience found nowhere else in the region.

With solid infrastructure, ample guest accommodations, and growing demand, this property offers both an established business and room for expansion. The current owners have built a strong reputation, but the location's potential is far from fully realized — whether continuing operations as is or expanding into new experiences, the opportunities are wide open.

NWT Dreamin' is the only remote wilderness lodge catering to winter guests in the Yellowknife region, offering unparalleled aurora viewing with demand strong enough that both aurora seasons are fully booked. Winter guests also enjoy snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing. In summer, guests enjoy world-class fishing, canoeing, and access to multiple rivers and lakes — the lodge straddles two lakes offering exceptional fishing for lake trout, Arctic grayling, northern pike, and more, with many guests returning annually as bookings continue to strengthen. Beyond the two lakes right outside the door, guests also have access to 2 walk-in lakes nearby, 5 remote fly-in lakes, and 2 rivers.

The lodge's proximity to Yellowknife keeps logistics simple and air charter costs low while still immersing guests in untouched wilderness, and the natural setting enhances guest privacy and exclusivity, whether they're dining on the deck, watching the aurora from the hot tub, or gathered around the fire pit. This successful business has an outstanding reputation, yet still holds unlimited potential for an ambitious new owner to make it their own.
