    Nice location, easy to reach but secluded enough to escape the crowds. Serviceable kitchen and washrooms/showers, and an outdoor fireplace that's close but not too close to the main building. Friendly staff and patrons. They've added WiFi...

    Comparing what other places cost, this was well worth the money! The living room area is really comfortable and large, also has a fire place. The location is between Lake Louise and Downtown Banff - so I thought it was perfect, if you have a car!...
