Overpriced and the worse accommodation I have ever stayed in for the price

The cabins are cute and it’s in a nice area. There is a lot of potential for this place, but it’s need some work. There were no dinning options, the door lock was questionable and the shower and toilet leaked. We also had a mouse in the cabin
Derek, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The cabin was a cute as could be, but it was not very clean! Needs deep cleaning AND just a good day-to-day cleaning. The property was exceptionally beautiful and well cared for. I'd stay again in a heartbeat but for the cleanliness issue

Nice cabins, extremely cold though as our heater was not working. If you plan to stay here, consider bringing a space heater or extra fire wood in case. Otherwise very charming.
Matthew, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible condition, rats in living room, WiFi connection keeps dropping, no daily room keeping service, did not change linens & bedsheet, restaurant is closed, no curtains on window in washroom - literally no privacy in washroom.

4/10 Fair

The cabin itself was quiet and clean however the restaurant was closed and has clearly been closed for a while despite their website saying its open 7 days a week for all meals. We had to drive 40 minutes to buy gas station food for dinner. The wifi is also poor, there is an aggressive dog tied up out front and they lock the gate to the property so getting out in the morning was difficult.

There was no WiFi except at lobby. no laundry ,no food , The rooms were poor with exposed wiring electrical panel over the bed sockets hanging out of the wall.
Noel, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The photos of the cabins in ads do not reflect their current condition. I expect the photos are at least 10 years out of date and little or no maintenance has been done since. Our cabin was heated by a small portable heater that barely kept the cabin at 15c. No food or cooking facilities on site. Coffee is $4 a cup.
Mr Richard J, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

1)The staff in the front desk can’t speak English well. 2) The properties are terrible. 3) Water leaks and no hot water. 4) No room-cleaning during my stay ( 4 nights) 5) No food market/ restaurant in 40 km. 6) No Wi-Fi, no television, no music.
CHYI SHUEN WEBER, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very hard to communicate with staff. No dining options. Some of the cabins in very poor condition. Improper installation of hot water tanks made the property very unsafe and a hazard to patrons. Smoke alarms did not work in cabins. Property has potential to be very beautiful, but in need of many, many repairs and improvements.
Susan, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Left without staying
Photos on Hotels.com are in no way accurate for the condition now. The cabins are run down, doors bodged with pieces of wood, exposed electrical wiring and cracked fire surround. Onsite restaurant not open despite the website stating it was. We left without staying, staff didn't seem bothered by our comments and made no attempt to fix the issues raised. Would definitely NOT recommend to anyone!
Chris, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The one good thing was the front desk staff who was very helpful. Beyond that... There was no notification that the restaurant was closed for reservations prior to our arrival. Closest spot to eat was about 45 minutes away which we ended up going to. The mini fridge in our cabin didn't work, wifi worked half of the time, and there was no cell phone reception. The entire place felt and looked very run down and poorly maintained. I don't see myself going back here.

Avoid this place
My wife and I went here for our anniversary because the photos online make this look like a cute quite little get away. When we arrived the 2 front desk workers spoke barely any English to the point where we were googling images of a deck of cards to see if they had any for sale. The restaurant had an opening time for dinner from 530-730 we were there at 615 and no one was there. There was a bell you could ring and wait we did this and no one came. The nearest towns are 40-45 mins away Finally my wife was using the washroom in our cabin and noticed a chewed up toilet roll with mouse poop beside it. At this point we left and went to radium for the night. This cabin was just under 300 for the night and was not worth it at all.

With some work, these cabins could be a lot better. Many of the cabins have gaps between the door & floor/ceiling. One even has a hole chewed through the door. The windows of our cabin had some gaps/holes. So our cabin was full of mosquitoes. The curtains didn't quite fully cover the windows and there was no hand soap in the bathroom. However, the cabins are very charming and cozy. The bed was super comfortable. I really wanted to stick it through, but we heard a squirrel or something trying to chew through the floor and we left to find other accomodations. The people working there were nice, but their dog kept barking aggressively whenever anyone went near the office. I didn't like to leave, but it was starting to feel more like camping rather than staying in a nice cabin. I think with some work, this place would be a really nice, cozy & affordable choice in Kootenay National Park.
Michelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Single female who stayed here 3 nights. These were all I needed to adventure between the national parks. The wifi is only in the office, but it reached my cabin & worked fine (cabin 5). Cabins were clean & cute. Saw a spider or two, but that comes with the territory. There was a good sized gap below the door, which I shoved my extra towel under to stop the cold draft during the night. Some sections of windows you could see in, so I covered those with towels too. They provide firewood for you to have a fire inside the cabin. It took me a day to realize you basically have to slam the door shut to get it to lock. There is a deadbolt inside as well. Hot water in the showers worked great every night. I will say I expected them to be a little less pricey since they are so simple. These are perfect for the simple low-maintenance people.
Carley, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Other than the fact that the cabin that I stayed when was brand new this was a near nightmare. Communication with the staff was difficult at best due to language differences. The cabin actually has unsafe steps without handrail the front porch has only one rail to the side but not one in the front. There is no television. There is no cell phone service. The Wi-Fi they claim to have doesn’t work inside the cabin. Outside the cabin barely works. In addition they have a guard dog, golden retriever. Which barks at the guess when they come to the front desk. To top it all off when I attempted to leave at quarter till eight in the morning the gates were locked preventing me from exiting the property. I would not recommend this property to anyone.
Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The cabin was decent with enough space. The hot water didn’t last very long and the mini fridge was so loud we had to turn it off. We tried to get the gas fire going but it wouldn’t, not even after a staff member tried. The common area is nice to use and they had a propane tank that we were able to use for our portable grill. The employees couldn’t speak English well so communication was difficult. They also had a German Shepherd tied up out front that barked every single time someone came near to the office - this dog barked well into the night and would start again in the morning. Very poor management of the area with it looking very unorganized and dirty. The store is also inadequately organized and isn’t stocked or presented very nicely. It’s too bad bc this place has a lot of potential, it just needs proper management and some TLC. I’d only recommend if you had no other option, otherwise your better to find another place.
Crystal, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

We didn't read the reviews before reserving. When I walked into the cabin, I immediately second guessed our choice. It is very rustic. The windows and coverings are old. The locks for the door are terrible. There are only 2 outlets in the whole cabin. The bathroom was long and skinny. We had to slide past the sink to get to the toilet and shower. There was maybe 1 1/2' between the sink and the wall! I woke up in the middle of the night to scratching. I turned the light on and saw a mouse come out of our bag on the table and run out the door (which is not sealed tightly). We went through the rest of our luggage and locked it securely. Before I could go back to sleep, I heard another noise. Turned on the light and saw another mouse run across the floor. We arrived on motorcycles, so we couldn't sleep in our car or head to another place...this place is about 30 miles from the next town! I haven't tried to get any refund, as past reviews state that they will not. We paid a lot of money to share a room with the wildlife!
Tanya, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property is nothing like it was described online. The cabins are falling apart, there’s no proper wifi, the restaurant wasn’t open, the cabins themselves smelt of must and mould, they were unclean. There was hole in the door where animals can get into the cabin. The cabin was leaning and was not structurally sound. When I talked to management about a refund as I could not stay in the establishment, I was met with a rude manager and did not offer any solution. I was disgusted with the appearance and I felt unsafe to stay the night as I was travelling alone. I felt as I was mislead by the description and by the photos of this lodge. I was not given a refund even though I did not stay the night, or even make the cabin messy. I was on site for all of 20 minutes before I left. I do not recommend this place to stay at all. I was extremely disappointed to stay the least. I will not be returning.
