Delightful retreat in the mountains - second year
Jacqueline from Calgary, Canada

Second year in a row that we have gone out for thanksgiving (think previous review was under another username). This is a great house with more than enough room for all of us. The second year we were there we ended up being much more lazy and spent some time watching movies and relaxing in the lounge. Enough room for all of us to relax for the one morning. Still a great selection of pots and pans for cooking a big thanksgiving meal.
We were lucky enough that there was some big rains before we were out there and the fire ban was over so we could enjoy a fire. Just love this house and looking forward to many future adventures out there.

Great Family Vacation Spot
Kendra from Calgary, Canada
Date: Jan-06-2015 for a stay in Dec 2014
Our family rented the Bear Paw Lodge over the Christmas holidays and very much enjoyed our time. The house was well equipped, clean, and comfortable for all 9 of us. Jim Hewlett was very helpful and quick to respond with any questions I had before our arrival. The process was very smooth and the on location property manager, Dan, was happy to answer any questions we had after arrival. The location of the lodge was perfect for lots of snowshoeing, hiking, and jogging trails. It is about 40 minutes away from Kicking Horse ski hill, which made Christmas Eve skiing possible. The hot tub is a great amenity to the lodge with a beautiful view of the mountains. Dan also provided us with the tools to chop down our own Christmas tree! I would highly recommend the lodge to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway with friends or family.
