Steps to Banff National Park l Mountain Getaway

With comfortable beds, a fully stocked kitchen, new appliances and 3 TV's, you will have everything you will need to relax by the fireplace after a day of exploring, skiing, or snowboarding. We are located in Harvie Heights, right beside the Banff National Park gate and 5 minutes to Canmore.
Just finished renovating this amazing 2 level townhouse style condo at Banff Woods Lodge. Welcome to your home away from home! After conveniently pulling right up to your front door to unload your luggage, maybe skis and belongings, take a moment to admire the mountains. When you first enter the condo, kick your shoes off and hang your coat up. We have a hangers in the front closet and a place to hang your keys just to your left. As you enter, you will see our gas fireplace, sofa and TV. This sofa pulls out into a comfortable queen sized bed to host a couple or children. Across from the bed you will find our main floor bathroom with a shower. We supply all natural soaps from Rocky Mountain Soap Company for you to use in both bathrooms and in the kitchen. Our kitchen table is large enough to fit all 8 guests - with extra fold up chairs located in the front closet. You will find all the supplies you need to cook, prep and season your meal in the kitchen area including the shelving in the wall and island (that can move to wherever you need). The island has a shelf you’re welcome to use to put some of your groceries away. Out the back door you will find a common area with a BBQ shared amongst guests at the complex. We supply all BBQ tools you will need. Up the stairs are both bedrooms - the master bedroom has a queen sized bed and patio with seating that overlooks the beautiful mountain scenery. We also have a desk in this room to serve as your dedicated work space if you need to work away from home. If you turn left at the stairs, you will find the bunk bed room. This room has a queen bed with a single (twin) XL over the top as well as another single (twin) XL mountain loft bed up the ladder (72” up -not for small children). This is the perfect space to host your kids. Between the two bedrooms is a bathroom with a shower/bath and ample storage for your toiletries. We supply a hair dryer and shampoo/conditioner. You will also find the in-suite laundry facilities across the hallway from the bathroom - we supply laundry soap for you to wash your clothing on site. We have a warm fireplace to keep you cozy in the winter and air conditioning in both bedrooms to save you from a hot summer night. Being this close to Banff National Park and quick access to Trans Canada Hwy 1 opens up endless possibilities for exploring and/or heading to the ski hills. Sunshine Ski Village is only a 25 min drive and you are only 5 minutes to Canmore and 15 min to downtown Banff. This location is best for guests who have access to a vehicle for transport - if you do not have a car, taking a cab to Canmore to catch the bus would be your best bet.

Lovely condo!
We loved our stay in this condo while visiting Banff. The location was so easy right off the highway, and there are beautiful mountain views all around. The place was very clean, well-stocked, and plenty big for our family of 5. Perfect place to relax and unwind after a busy day of hiking and sight-seeing. We hope to be back someday!

Nicely remodeled unit with all the touches of home and a great location to explore the Banff area. Would definitely book again when back in the area which is a must - amazingly beautiful country to explore.

Great place
The property was clean and updated. The views amazing, with a paved running trail right outside. Not right in town so no crowds but close enough. Very affordable for what we got. Great communication. Thank you!

Beautiful condo in Canmore
We were a family of 4 adults who stayed in Canmore and drove to Lake Louise each day to ski. We decided to stay in Canmore to be closer to restaurants and grocery stores. This condo is small but easily fit 4 adults. It was spotlessly clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed to cook meals and pack lunches each day. Emma and Josh were easy to communicate with and responded to questions quickly. I would definitely stay here again.
Clean house, nice location and easy to find. Park pass is helpful we can use to get into Cave and basin. Love to come back again. 😊

Great location for a family
We loved our stay while exploring Banff! There was plenty of space for my family of 4 - and my kids loved the hidden bed in the loft of their bedroom. The kitchen was stocked and labeled so it was easy to get around. There was plenty of parking. It was easy to get to Banff or Canmore - and the hosts were so easy to get hold of if there were any questions or comments. Highly recommend this location when visiting Banff!
