Overview
The lodge provides a quiet retreat in the heart of Kananaskis Country. From the dining room windows mountains rise sharply across Moose Meadows. These meadows are natural habitat for many of the Rocky Mountains’ animals and birds, including coyotes, moose, elk, deer and beavers. It is not uncommon to see bald eagles, ravens, heron and owls passing through. In this intimate setting, enjoy gourmet meals, a cozy family atmosphere, fresh air and spectacular scenery. After a day of hiking or skiing, relax in the evening by one of our hand-crafted fireplaces. Take a quiet stroll along the meadow or creek. Enjoy the undisturbed night sky from the hot tub or out on the deck. Inside the main Lodge, you will find two stone fireplaces, lots of large bright windows, and plenty of space to relax. The Lodge is uniquely designed and operated to create a comfortable, quiet atmosphere for enjoying the wilderness. Unwind outside on our spacious wrap around deck, in the hot tub, or in our wood-fired sauna. Immerse yourself in our collection of books, or in the scenery right outside the windows.
Activities
Winter is a spectacular time of year to explore the backcountry of Kananaskis and the Rocky Mountains. There are excellent winter trails right from the Lodge, out into Moose Meadows, or up to Rummel or Tryst Lakes. Ski trails for all levels and abilities can be found nearby. Venture out on cross-country skis, telemark or touring skis, snowshoes (with or without a snowboard), or go for a stroll down quiet Shark Mountain Road. There are over 100 km of cross-country ski trails five minutes away in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park. Here, members of the Canadian Olympic Cross-Country and Biathlon teams often come to train on first class groomed trails for classic and skate-skiing at Mount Shark Training Center.
Accommodation
Accomodating up to twenty-eight people, the lodge is an ideal overnight escape for individuals, families and groups.
We have single or double Lodge Rooms for up to twelve people, with shared bathroom and shower facilities. We also have one large room for up to four people. Attached to the main lodge are two beautiful Lodge Suites overlooking the meadow, each with queen-sized beds, private bathrooms, private lounging area and a gas fireplace. Both Lodge Suites have their own balcony, cozy window seats and large windows.
There are also three private Cabins, in the Chalet building, with private washrooms and decks. Two Cabins are for two guests. The third Cabin has two bedrooms and a bathroom, perfect for a family of four or two couples. All rooms are cozily furnished with down comforters, linens and towels. There are no in-room telephones, computer jacks or televisions to distract you - no daily chambermaiding.
Rates include a two course buffet breakfast, build-it-yourself lunch, afternoon tea with delicious baked goods, and a gourmet dinner with fresh baked bread and home made dessert. Our bountiful gourmet meals are served buffet style in the dining room of the main lodge. We like our food to be both healthy and delicious. Bread, desserts and baked goods are made fresh each day. We are licensed for beer, wine, and a select assortment of liqueurs.
