accommodation
- Northern Lights Motel. This original motel is located a few kilometers north of the entrance to Wawa and is run by an active couple who (according to their own information) couldn't earn enough money writing comedy. Everywhere, including the rooms, there are funny little pieces of paper, pictures or suggestions. But also clean and tidy - the operators say: Running a Great Motel is not Rocket Science. At the end of October 2012, parts of the motel were destroyed by a flood disaster; operations are now up and running again (2014 season).Open: May - October.
