The Glamping tent we rented was awesome! The bed was so cozy and we loved the covered cooking area and counters! I did notice spiderwebs in the antler chandelier when we arrived, so it would be good for the cleaning crew to dust those. The kerosene heater worked against itself a bit. Because its smelly and bad to breath in we had to ventilate the tent by opening the zipper windows slightly. So the tent didnt get as warm as it could have. The second night there were people playing music and laughing till midnight which kept us awake so both my husband and I had a poor nights sleep that night. You can hear the highway traffic so if you prefer no sounds like this a further from the highway location would be preferable. Besides these couple of things, overall our stay was very enjoyable and we will likely be back again!

Good campsites, but bring your own lighters

Room is very clean, outhouse is beyond expectations, main bathroom and showers are super clean. The only problem is the tent is extremely cold. We didn’t know they don’t have a lighter or matches ready for us in the room. My friend and I don’t smoke, so we don’t have a lighter. We arrived at the property after 9pm. The office was closed, and everyone was asleep. So we have no way to light up the fire for our fireplace. It was freezing. But if I bring the lighter next time, I will still come back to this place. It’s very well maintained and cleaned

Property is absolutely stunning surrounded by beautiful scenery. Abbey on the front desk is extremely helpful. They let me park my car for a few hours when I went for a cycling. They’re very helpful people. I highly recommend this place if you wanna get away from crowded situations like Banff and other areas which are overpopulated this is a perfect paradise.

I didn’t like the fumes from the kerosene heater. The heater should be vented to the outside. I feel that signage could be improved. It is easy to miss the first loop. Our site was 65 and we missed the first turn and ended up driving the entire loop. Further to that issue - there should be a sign at the entry point to sites 65, 66 etc. to indicate that theses sites are private and not an access point to the River - especially at the River itself. After people were leaving the river to access the main road, they traipsed through our camp site with no respect for our private space. I found the staff very polite and helpful. When I bought some wood the young man took it to my vehicle. When my tire was low, the girls helped me get the tire pressure back to normal. I always felt supported.
