The cozy lodge has room for only 19 residents at a time – and pets! – so you’ll be sure to connect over the family-style dinners. The lounge and private rooms are a picture-perfect place to lose yourself in a novel, and its secluded location in the Rocky Mountains means that no stresses will be able to reach you while you’re away.
Surrounding the lodge are snow-capped mountains waiting to be explored, a lush valley divided by a flowing river, and the opportunity to experience a true Canadian adventure in the renowned Rocky Mountains – perhaps even from a helicopter.
Prices start at $154 a night, and $322 for double occupancy rooms during the winter season.
