Overall good place to stay while visiting Watertown Park. There are enough beds but the space was a little tight for 4 adults. The shower and extra toilets were nearby but might be an issue for some people.

Wonderful stay

My mother, my sister and I spent a lovely 3 nights in the Wolf Lair cabin. It is well equipped, has comfortable beds and perfectly situated near Waterton. We walked the trail nearby, played pickleball and took a canoe out for a paddle on the lake.

Family trip to Waterton

Our stay in the Wilderness Lodge was perfect. It had beautiful views, the people were nice, it was dog friendly and it was very close to the Waterton NP. Also the playground was awesome and not just for kids. There was also a canoe we could use to go out on the lake and view the beautiful sunset.

Our Mountain View trip

The host was awesome from start to finish. The property/ cabin is a cute oasis to use as a base for our time in waterton. I would without hesitation recommend this property to friend and family. My husband and I will definitely be staying here again.

Charming cabin close to Waterton Lakes

We spent 2 nights at the cabin while we were visiting Waterton Lakes. The cabin was well-equipped with everything we could possibly need. It’s clean and everything looks new. The cabin is dog-friendly which we appreciated very much. It’s located in a campground but was very quiet and we could walk our dogs around the campground without other dogs running loose. It’s located in a beautiful area and our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer.

2-day stay

This property was comfortable and well-designed to accommodate two people upstairs with some privacy and 1 person and a dog downstairs. The under-the-stairs space has storage space for luggage etc and drawers for tucking away items. The kitchen is well stocked with cutlery, glasses, mugs and so on, for six or more people. The two outdoor seating areas add to the sense of space. We would have used them more if we weren’t meeting with family in Waterton townsite. We didn’t make use of the showers, which are separate from unit. Highly recommend. Nearby Payne Lake is beautiful.

A nice hidden gem close to Waterton

Our family of 4 had an amazing time in the hut. We stayed a full week. The hut is small, yet has everything we needed, the kitchen is well-equipped to cook anything (air fryer, toaster, slow cooker...) and there is a fan and air-conditioning if it's too hot. The campground was not busy at all, and the play area was really fun (for us adults too - like discovering pickleball). There is a lounge area with Wifi and many boardgames and books. The Payne Lake is beautiful to walk around or go boating/paddling... The Waterton Park is just 20 minutes away. And managed a day trip in the US to check on the Glacier National Park too (1hour drive from the hut). Highly recommended. And if you had a dog, you can bring it too (for those who have pets).

This place is super cute and would be the perfect place to bring a family to, especially with the awesome outdoor obstacle course. The only downside is the water had a musty earthy smell/ taste to it so we ended up bringing our own wate. Otherwise it was a fantastic place to stay with a well equipped kitchen with hot plate, air fryer, microwave.

Clean, modern cabin in a lovely campground

I surprised my partner with 2 nights in a cabin near Waterton for his birthday (around 30 mins away). We loved our stay. The cabin is clean, modern, and full of amenities. The AC was a nice touch. We also loved the campground - it’s full of friendly families who own the lots and it was only steps away from Payne Lake. Would definitely stay again.

Waterton Oasis

Beautiful cabin just outside of Waterton Park (which was nice as we only had to pay for a parks pass for part of our trip). My boyfriend and I had an amazing time. Our unit had everything that we needed. With a 5 minute walk, you can watch the sunset over the lake behind the mountains. Will definitely be staying here again.

Amazing views!

Our stay in the Wolf's Lair was one of the best 4 days EVER!! Payne Lake is close to Waterton Park, Red Rock Canyon, Buffalo Paddock Loop, many many hikes, and the lake itself was perfect to take a dip! We "attempted" Pickleball, shot some hoops, played Cornhole, played horseshoes and even took some time to try out the obstacles! Would definitely recommend to rent!
