Amazing place and wunderful area
Jørgen Jonas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location is excellent for hiking at Johnston Canyon. There is a shortcut path leading to the trail at the back of the house. The bungalow is very well kept. Kitchen appliances are with famous brand and very clean. The two bedrooms are a bit small but cozy. The sofa-bed in the living room is a bonus to us as we’re travelling with friends and need separate beds. Very quiet environment with fresh air. Will stay again if we visit Banff next time.
Mei Chun, 2-night trip

Absolutely stunning location and easy hikes to the waterfalls.

Cutest cabin ever! We loved being walking distance from the trails!

Relaxing

First time staying here. The cabins are old, but very well kept and add to the charm. We loved the little porch and spent a lot of time sitting there, even saw a fox go by. It’s quiet and away from the noise of people visiting the falls. Parking right at your cabin, easy check in/out. We ate supper outside at the restaurant and quite enjoyed it.
Chantel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The cabins are so cute, they were lovely to stay in and the beds were very comfortable. One of the lamps had no bulb in. The TV had to be unplugged to turn it off because the Toshiba remote did not work with the TV of another make. So we were not able to adjust the volume either on the BluRay disc we watched. Do eat in the restaurant! Dinner and breakfast were both superb with very friendly staff. Loved the vintage cars around the place.

This was the perfect place to stay. Central to everthing, 15 min drive to Banff, clean and away from the crowds. Would definitely stay again.
Marcela, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We LOVED our stay! The area was beautiful, with hikes within walking distance. The cabin we had was updated, clean, and still cozy, with everything you needed for your stay right there, even including wood for a fire! We would absolutely love to stay here again when we return to Banff.
Alexandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The cabins were very small but cute. The staff was great, friendly and helpful. The restaurant was good. The trail to the falls was easy to hike
Kevin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great staff, needs new beds and could use touch up

Great staff, beautiful area. For what we paid, it could definitely have had some more updating, and the bed was an old coil spring mattress. The cabins have paper thin walls.
Jill, 1-night trip

Very nice property!! GREAT staff!!! Beautiful little bungalow with the river below.
Melissa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing place to stay. The hike up the canyon so see the waterfalls was fairly easy and well worth it. Take the full hike up to the upper falls. They are stunning!
Paul, 1-night trip

Location, location, hikers

Amazing location in a rustic cabin. There are a lot of hikers passing by. The front desk is great.
Quick hike to lower falls.
The cabin from the trail.

This is an great area to stay nearby Banff (30 mins away), and still have some space to yourself. Staff is awesome and kind. It’s clean, cozy, and has beautiful views all around. Enjoy the Johnston Canyon Trail (do it in the evening, it’s less crowded!).
Claudia, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming cottage with nice view of water streaming down the mountain. Perfect location to hike the Falls during less crowded hours. Cozy beds and warm showers after long hikes. The fireplace was an added bonus.

wendy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cute LITTLE cabin. 2 adults and a large dog shared a standard queen cabin. We asked for, and housekeeping happily sent over a microwave oven, 2 plates and some utensils so we could cook our own dinner. A very safe and well maintained trail to the upper falls was well worth the walk. The falls were spectacular.
