We LOVED our stay! The area was beautiful, with hikes within walking distance. The cabin we had was updated, clean, and still cozy, with everything you needed for your stay right there, even including wood for a fire! We would absolutely love to stay here again when we return to Banff.

This is an great area to stay nearby Banff (30 mins away), and still have some space to yourself. Staff is awesome and kind. It’s clean, cozy, and has beautiful views all around. Enjoy the Johnston Canyon Trail (do it in the evening, it’s less crowded!).

Loved the hike trail right outside my door. Dining and cafe/market closes at 8 pm so make sure you eat up and dont get hungry late at night, nothing else around. Go for the hike morning or evening to avoid the crowds.

Cute LITTLE cabin. 2 adults and a large dog shared a standard queen cabin. We asked for, and housekeeping happily sent over a microwave oven, 2 plates and some utensils so we could cook our own dinner. A very safe and well maintained trail to the upper falls was well worth the walk. The falls were spectacular.

We loved staying at Johnston Canyon, easiest access possible to the most popular hikes and viewpoints in Banff NP. 20 min to both Lake Louise and Banff. The cabin was great, the beds were comfortable and it stayed plenty warm at night. If you stay here and plan on cooking, bring oil, butter, or something non-stick. None is provided.

It was nice to have a great hiking spot so close to our cabin. We rented e-bikes from them that went really smooth. Quiet, safe feeling property. A bit far between towns. But there’s a small gas station close by. Cabin was cute and a great size for a couple.

Property was good so was the room with well equipped Kitchen. Connectivity with the Canyon was the highlight. The restaurant could have been better considering the remoteness of the property. The wifi was very weak and there were frequent disconnections.

Disappointing stay. Cottage in desperate need of TLC. Extremely overpriced for the poor condition of this accommodation. Restaurant on site did not have several of the food or beverage items listed on their menu. However the staff were exceptionally friendly and the location was beautiful.

I'm told I was the first guest of 2025 - what an honour! This is a picturesque cottage resort, nestled between the towns of Banff and Lake Louise. Several of the cottages back onto Johnston Canyon Trail. Stunning views of nearby Pilot and Castle Mountains. Cafe and restaurant have great offerings and friendly staff. Cabin was spacious and cozy with a propane fire and lovely porch with iconic Red Parks Canada chairs - where you can watch deer, fox and more wildlife, stroll by. Great value. Considering a return next spring too. @markmccauley
