Carcross is cute, it's an hour from the capital city, Whitehorse Yukon. Carcross recently built about 6 or so small buildings, mostly occupied by art shops and one cozy cafe. The new plaza is across from the semi-restored frame of the SS Tutshi, but if steam boats are your thing you'll want to check out the SS Klondike.
It has a historic general store, complete with old trapping equipment. Trapping is still practiced today, but the equipment and licensing is much more humane.
The White Pass & Yukon Route railway also ends in Carcross, as of 2007 they restored that part of the railway. https://wpyr.com/sights-sounds/places/carcross-yukon/
If anyone is considering a trip here, the website and guides at https://yukoninfo.com/ are a good resource.
There's also a small makerspace that is in the process of moving to a brand new space, http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/yukonstruct-makerspace-y...
And lots of guiding places to help you get outdoors, in case you are considering a trip here :)
