Convenience is at your doorstep, with easy access to the Nunavut hospital, Arctic College, government offices, and downtown core within walking distance or a short taxi ride. Nature enthusiasts will love exploring the Geraldine lake walking trail and nearby tundra lakes, where you can indulge in berry picking during the summer and witness the mesmerizing dance of the northern lights in fall, winter, or spring.
