Seeing the northern lights is a dream come true for most people as beautiful colours light up the sky creating an amazing experience.
Of course, the best places to see them from in B.C. are spots far away from the big cities and the light pollution that comes with them.
There have been some incredible sightings of the aurora borealis, even in Vancouver, but your best bet is to escape the city and head to somewhere more remote.
That means it's time to get out of the city, and why not make it a little vacay by booking a cabin for the weekend? You'll increase your chances by searching for them over the course of a couple of nights.
Here are some cabins to cozy up in while you wait for the show to (hopefully) start.
