In a quiet location with view of the mountains. Love the quaint lodge decor and that each room has a patio or balcony. They also served an amazing home cooked breakfast delivered right to our room. Will be back next time we visit Canmore !

This is a very nice quite location. The building and rooms are on the small side but very nice. Not super modern but still in good condition. The hot tub was always quiet and so nice to use in the evening. Parking was a bit tight and a gravel lot with huge potholes so be aware! No real view from our room other than the treed yard, but it was nice and private. Staff was very friendly. Included breakfast was awesome, but it would be nice if they asked how you wanted it cooked. I don't like runny eggs and hot sauce but that's what I got. You only get a choice of the time you get breakfast, not what you get. Still, a very nice place and I would definitely return. Thanks!

Staff was excellent, food was great. Room was…. Odd. There is a jetted tub IN the room, not the bathroom, there isn’t a shower in the bathroom that too is in the main room. It feel like those sleepy 80s motels that have vibrating round beds lol. It was decently clean but I feel it needs a renovation and updating. The tv should have been a smart tv, who really watches cable anymore?

We loved the yummy breakfasts served right to our room. The bed was really comfortable and the room was very clean. Very friendly staff. Enjoyed the hot tub and the mountain view. Would definitely come again. Suggestion’s would be a higher toilet ( easier for older people) and a bigger TV with a movie channel or access to ordering a movie. Other than that it was awesome.
