The property was just as described, and check-in was easy. The restaurant was nice, and my wife and I enjoyed the tremendous service by a young lady from the French Alps who spent the summer taking care of customers. If you decide to stay, ask the employees how to get to the beach - it's a little bit of a hike down and back, but the views are well worth it!

Great accomodation. Quite remote. Diesel Generator power and satellite internet. Gas station, groceries, restaurant. Fairly well priced considering how remote it is. No cellular coverage, like most of the rockies. I'd stay here again.

We had a ground floor room and because the building is a log cabin walking in the room above is very noisy. The king bed was very comfortable but housekeeping was not good You are asked to request if you want the room refreshed I asked for the bed to be remade on 2 mornings and it wasn’t Because the resort is remote you basically have to eat dinner at the restaurant and the menu is pretty basic although they understood gluten free perfectly

Bathroom could be cleaner. Coffee maker missing the pot. Despite asking twice it was not replaced. No reading lamps in room. No hairdryer. Very basic older motel priced double what it is worth. Staff seem very disinterested. Restaurant food nothing special. Servers excellent though.

The property itself is good, very clean, but no air conditioning. The area is in the middle of no where. No cell phone signal at all, and wifi is slow. No restaurant or grocery store nearby, except the one in the hotel.

There is a boil water advisory in effect as of August 29th. Had to find out about this after checking in by a poster from Alberta Health Services, the man at the front desk did not mention it and did not provide a means to boil water until I came back and asked. I found lodge staff were generally in a bad mood. The restaurant was popular and the food was good. Wifi is provided but there seems to only be one router located in the front office. If you are not located near the front office you are out of luck.
