“Adorable cabins with all amenities. Really comfortable beds and perfect kitchenette. Gorgeous views, 30 min to Jasper and various hiking trails and 12 min to Hinton. The real star was the front desk attendant Catherine. She was kind, personable, knowledgeable, and really knew the area like the back of her hand. Amazing experience”
“Was a great place to have a spring break getaway! Beautiful scenery around and the snow made it so much better! Was also dog friendly and they not only let you bring dogs, they also give you some treats and a water dish to make your pup feel at home! Definitely recommend these cabins!”
“We spent a night in a cozy wooden cabin in the middle of the forest. Although the mosquitoes left quite a few marks on me :), it was an unforgettable experience. I even saw a large black bear right in front of me and had to run back to the cabin! At night, we sat by the campfire, joined some other couples, drank beer, and hung out. It was a wonderful time and a perfect place to rest and recharge.”
“This place is amazing, the location is great, between Hinton and Jasper, closer to Hinton. On the way to the ski mountains there's a bunch of wild life. The cabins are secure and offer a great experience. The lady at the front desk Inga, helped us with all our questions about the area. Definitely a place to go back. It's a 40 minute drive to the ski mountain but totally worth it.”
