Lovely Views

I was amazed by the size of the cabin deck, which came with stunning views of the surrounding nature. The space was generous, equipped with large dining tables and grills making it perfect for our family barbecue evenings. While the decor was a bit outdated, the cleanliness and spaciousness made up for it. The cabin felt like an upscale retreat in nature, a true gem for those seeking tranquility.

Perfect Weekend Wedding

Our stay was a hit with the kids thanks to the fantastic rec room which kept them entertained for hours. The pool was equally enjoyable; we spent countless hours swimming and splashing around. The facility was well-maintained and had enough space for our family, allowing everyone to relax and enjoy. It truly was a perfect setting for bonding and having fun together.

Like Christmas at Grandmas

Even though we were in the mountains, the resort had a magical holiday charm to it. The two hot tubs available were a perfect way to unwind after a busy day of exploring. The kids loved having a play area in the lodge, and we enjoyed relaxing around the campfire at night. This place is a fantastic escape to unplug and enjoy quality moments with family.

Great Experience

I loved how the resort offered a games room stocked with board games and DVDs. It was a great way to entertain ourselves during downtime. Our cabin was equipped with everything we needed for cooking, along with comfy bedrooms ensuring a restful night after our adventures. The leisure facilities made our stay even more enjoyable, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

The resort is nestled in a beautiful, quiet location, offering stunning mountain views and spacious units. However, the property feels a bit dated, and the cleanliness could use improvement in some areas. It's conveniently close to both Canmore and Banff, making it easy to explore the area. Overall, it's a good choice for a cozy getaway, but it does need some renovations and better maintenance.

The resort is set in a beautiful, secluded area with stunning mountain views. While the spacious cabin provided a pleasant stay, there were several issues that detracted from the experience, such as outdated amenities and service problems.

I had an amazing time at this resort, tucked away peacefully in the forest but only a short drive from Canmore. The chalet was spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. The views were stunning, creating a perfect backdrop for a tranquil getaway. However, I did feel a bit overwhelmed by the strict rules and extra charges, which took away from the relaxation factor. Overall, it was excellent value for money, especially compared to other options in the area.
