We stayed in #20 deckview and everything was amazing. When we arrived there were lit flameless…read morecandles and the tv was playing quiet spa type music - it totally blew us away. Everything you could possibly need was provided: BBQ lighter and supplies, all kitchen needs, laundry detergent, hair dryer, shampoo/conditioner etc. The deck, BBQ, and hot tub were great and the view was spectacular. The only possible downsides were the main bedroom was quite small for the bed - but worth it to have that king size mattress. Also the underground parking is really tight. We couldn't get our SUV in there. It wasn't a big deal for the fall, but could really suck if you visit in the winter. These are just picky points though. The apartment is fantastic, we will definitely be back for much longer.

The…read moresilence is punctuated by occasional train horns, and as you get closer to the running waters, the soft flow of Kicking Horse River. The view outside the front door of our chalet was directly to the mountain. The location is ideal - close enough to Banff and the Banff National Park, but also accessible to Golden and Rogers Pass. The site is well cared for, and our nightly s'mores via the fire pit was quite enjoyable. While we purchased our firewood from the IGA, you can get some at the Chalets from one of the caretakers, whose name is on each unit (albeit more expensive).

Stayed here 8/21/12, and expected a location in or near a meadow. No. It was off a branch of a long…read moredirt and gravel road, at one time looking down on the Columbia River and the town of Golden. It's not too far from the Kicking Horse ski area and resorts. It's on over 100 acres of private land and at one time was probably very attractive. There's the main lodge, plus a chalet nearby. It's run and staffed by the owners, man and wife. The wife is the cook and cleaning staff, the husband the greeter and breakfast server. Our room was pleasant. No TV, no wifi, both of these in the nearby game room. The building is clean and well appointed inside, and suffering from long deferred maintenance outside. We're told that the downturn in the economy post-Bush has really shut down winter tourism in Golden and the surrounding area. They say this accounts for the fact that all staff were let go, that maintenance is deferred, and that the lodge will close on or about Sept 1.

Just spent four days here...and the country is amazing. The Cabins were a little outdated and…read morequite honestly, for the money, they could use a little TLC. The swimming was nice but there were a few times we had to fight the drift would debris... it a huge problem...just another fun/creative activity for the kids. Long/endless mountain biking along up the forest rd...one could ride almost forever, heading northwest up all the way to head waters of the Columbia river, just north of Mica Creek and the far northern end of kinbasket lake. Our cabin (Sanctuary) was the roomiest of the cabins from what we could tell. Tucked away on the southern end of the property, south of the forest rd., from the main office. We had great views of rye river but unfortunately the main door to the deck didn't have a screen so...we had to keep our door shut to keep the bugs out. It was hot the first two days so Thai was definitely a bummer. The up stairs master bedroom only had two windows that opened with screens...again, kinda a bummer when it's hot. The kitchen and front room are the same...small area and without being able to rely on a screen patio door to the deck, the room can heat up and get quite full with 4-6 people. The door wall has a leak too so be sure to not put any air mattresses near this part of the room if it rains. Overall it's a nice place and any family should enjoy themselves here. Just be sure to bring All of your food and snacks in. There's really no amenities at this facility from a retail side. I'd suggest booking stays during the cooler months due to the heat. You're only at 2500-3000 feet/1k meters so you can't rely on the mountains to be cooler. You can bring a boat up but the dock seems to constantly full of drift wood. I'm sure it could be pushed out. Not sure what he charges for docking. The fishing is pretty solid. The shoreline offer a pretty substantial drop off so it gets deep, quickly. Great for shoreline trout fishing. I cheated with power bait for tue kids and we killed the bull trout - Good fighters/fast etc. Don't worry about the trash on some of the other reviews.... they actually drive by a few times a day and pick up all the trash from the smaller cans and put them into a bear safe larger receptacle near the main office. The best camping sites for tents and small trailers would be on the far eastern end of the property along the main lake side. It seems to have the most cover and privacy. The last three sites seem to be the largest with amazing views of the lake/river. See my pics The general showers and bathrooms are located centrally to the main property... We had a bathroom and a half bath in our cabin so we did not use these facilities however, my brother-in-law use them with his kids and he said they were warm and suitable. There's a lot of interesting history here... I believe the original owner was a retired Montréal Canadiens hockey player. Keep your expectations in check and again, any family can come here, prepared, and have a wonderful time.
