A quaint lodge with individual bungalows. Clean yet somewhat dated but with Rocky Mountain charm. Of course the location is spectacular with beautiful Johnston Canyon at its doorstep. Get up early and beat the crowds to the waterfalls

The cabin was very comfortable. Kitchen has dish ware and basic cookware. We enjoyed the fireplace and electric heater. The cabin area was very quiet even with all the tourists on the trail. We really enjoyed our stay.
Tough hole to the ink pots but so worth it.

We loved how quaint our little cabin was and how it was next to Johnston Canyon. We liked how easy it was to get to other Banff sites as well. The restaurant on-site was delicious with very friendly staff. We were provided 3 free breakfast vouchers because we stayed 7 days, which we appreciated very much. We do wish that there was a discount for eating at the restaurant when you're staying on the property as we found food in Banff to be very pricey compared to a big city like Toronto where you have more options. (Think $12-$19 for a sandwich).

Can hike out the door,beautiful area,liked check in staff member, nice cabins, loved bus service to town,wine,had an issue with hot water for the shower in the morning,and didn't get a parking pass to board the morning bus which was not a huge deal. I tried to help clean up the Johnston Canyon trail which was more a parks staff responsibility. Overall, nice vintage place surrounded by wilderness.

These are so close to the Johnston Canyon enterance. The canyon can be very busy but this loation makes it possible to beat the crowds in the morning. The cabins are cute and they allowed our dog to stay with us. As typical with the area, there were lots of bears so just be sure to practice bear safety while walking. Loved the staff too!
