Very nice spot for a weekend getaway, nice private rooms with balcony and in room fireplace. They have wood pre cut for your convenience. Hot tub is very nice. Parking is super easy, staff was wonderful, and had very good suggestions on what to explore while in mountains. 10/10 recommend this stay to anyone!! Definitely a much more intimate experience than a normal hotel.

This was our second time staying here and we love how quiet and peaceful it is here. The wood stove smell that hangs in the air outside is so inviting and cozy. We love the hot tub and the restaurant is close by. We did notice both times that the rooms were not overly clean, we had garbage on the desk upon arrival. The overall cleanliness could be improved. We travelled with our infant and upon arrival we were told a play pen would be in our room, it wasn’t so we had called to have one delivered which wasn’t a big deal but the gentleman who dropped it off was not friendly. The playpen was not comfortable for our little one, next time we will be bringing our own bassinet from home. We do love traveling here because of how quiet it feels. So close to Banff yet it feels so remote, such a nice woodsy place to stay.
