Great staff, the glamping tent was exactly as described, bed was super comfy. The kerosene heater did well until it snowed and got quite cold to be in a glamping tent. But the weather aside, the staff were amazing, washroom/showers were clean and well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash, outhouses were kept tidy and well stocked with toilet paper. 10/10 would and will come back in warmer months or with more foresight into the forecast if coming back in late fall/early winter
Arrived around 8:40-8:45pm in the dark, but had to turn the lights on to get a super cute photo from outside
The interior, from outside the door. Out of frame to the right is the kerosene heater and a second side table.

We almost decided to stay home with reports of incoming less than ideal weather for the Thanksgiving long weekend. Thankfully we made the decision to proceed with our weekend away and our stay could not have been any more perfect. The family glamping tent was spacious and comfortable for our family of 6. We had no issues keeping the tent warm throughout our stay and were provided more than enough wood to keep the wood burning stove going when we needed it. Our kids enjoyed exploring the path down by the river and playing in the snow around our site

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.
