The place itself and the service were great actually. Beds are comfy and you cannot beat the price. Clear instruction were given about the place and how it was to be run by the guests. The winter condition with the new snow during the night made the landscape a very nice postcard and very magical place especially with Christmas around the corner.
This Banff resort is located in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. It features an outdoor patio with barbecue area and a tennis court. Guest accommodation includes a TV.

It was our second trip on Banff Sunshine Village. Summer is perfect for hiking. If you like winter sports, you must visit this place. We can't love Sunshine Mountain Lodge. All that ancient and modern vibes work perfectly. The facilities are over the moon. I enjoy the hot tub and sauna. All the activities in the evening. Perfect for couples. Friendly with families. Good food 😋. Friendly and helpful staff.
Located in Banff National Park, this resort features suites with views of the Rocky Mountain. Easy access is available to Bow Valley Parkway and Lake Louise is 20 minutes’ drive away.

It was absolutely lovely. Lots of tiny details thought of, clean, offered us an upgrade which was much appreciated. I did find the bed far too soft for a back injury so I had to sleep on the floor but that’s often the case with staying away from home.
Located in Banff National Park in the Canadian Rocky Mountains, this lodge offers free guided hiking programs and free canoeing. Each room and cabin features custom made, hand-crafted log furniture.

Great place to stay to see a unique treasure -Moraine Lake - without all the daytime crowds around. Nice cabins with wood fires and lovely views. The food was first class and although the accomodation is expensive, dinner was reasonably priced and a cooked breakfast is included.
Featuring an on-site gourmet restaurant and lounge, this Banff hotel is located 10 minutes’ drive from Mount Norquay Ski Resort and boasts panoramic views of the Rocky Mountains. Free WiFi is...

The views of the mountain from the room is breathtaking, and was what made the stay worth it.
What can I say except for WOW! My husband and I were there in Sept/Oct and everywhere we turned was another magnificent view of a mountain, glacier, canyon, lake. We rented bikes and rode to Vermillion Lakes and beyond. We hiked up Johnston Canyon, we took easy and more challenging walks, and met people from around the world. We flew into Calgary, drove to Banff, then to Castle Junction and stayed in two places I would recommend - Johnston Canyon Lodge and Bungaloos and Castle Mountain Chalets. We had a great trip!

A wonderful spot for a family get-together.
A wonderful spot for a family get-together. We had 6 cabins, close to each other, very clean and big enough to be very comfortable. Kitchens had everything one could think of to prepare our meals. Lots of open space for children to run free and play safely without any worry about traffic. The Johnson Canyon hike just down the road is amazing but it is likely best not to plan to do it on a long weekend in the summer as crowded.

I can't say enough about the amazing staff!
I can't say enough about the amazing staff! Friendly, accommodating, and understanding. I went for the long weekend with my family that included my 2 year old granddaughter. We arrived a little early & though we were prepared to wait till check in time, we were told our unit was cleaned and we could get in right away. Since I had called ahead regarding sleeping options for the 2 year old, a playpen was there on arrival. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of firewood left as well, as seeing more on the porch the next day. The only slight disappointment was finding out the hot tub was removed during covid. Other than that, it was an amazing, extremely comfortable stay.

Overall stay in this area is great than staying in the chain hotel for the purpose of enjoying the real Banff park style. This cabin area is convenient in driving to Lake Louise and Banff town. I wished my reservation on single cabin was granted as a dream came true, but when we checked in, the clerk handed us a second floor apartment room key. I questioned why not single cabin, but it is what it is. The apartment building was nice , but just not what I have been dreamed when I made the reservation.

Disliked · Our cabin wasn't cleaned before we checked in: hair in the shower, dirty floors, candy left under the gas stove, gas stove didn't work the first night and we had to let reception know so someone could come in to fix it for our 2nd night so we didn't have to freeze another night, light bulb hanging from the ceiling, cabin wasn't cleaned during our 2-day stay, the upper waterfall and ink pots paths were closed for construction and we were not notified at booking or when we hiked the path until we got to those trails (we stayed at Johnson Canyon because we wanted to see the upper falls and ink pots too), way too many tour buses with tourist going up and down the falls trail leading to congestion on the trail. Johnson Canyon hike has turned into a Disney Land type of place with lineups and way too many people on the trail at one time. I wouldn't recommend going or staying there.

This is a wonderful place to stay if you are looking for a private cabin, close to the mountains and the adventurous you can have there. It is also great if you travel with your furkids. You have your own parking spot, kitchenette, and bathroom with a wee tub for hot soaks at the end of a long, active day. The bed is a bit soft and a bit small, since it is only a full size bed. Overall, a great place to stay and we would stay again.

Located around 20 minutes from the town of Banff and much closer to a few of the more famous sites like Johnston Canyon and Sunshine Meadows. It's also located very close to a nice little nature trail along the Bow River. If you follow this trail in the morning and at dusk it's possible to see some wildlife. We saw Loons and Elk. The trail is off of a small parking lot next to the railroad. Our room had a jacuzzi which we thoroughly enjoyed!
Perfectly situated half way between Lake Louise and Banff. A 5 minute drive to Johnston Canyon.
Use of rental bikes for the Bow Valley Parkway.
Rustic log cabins.
Close to train track which is cool - ear plugs were provided - didn’t hear a peep with them in (and I am a light sleeper).
The location was fantastic! Central to Lake Louise/Moraine and Banff. The walk to the falls and the inkpots was wonderful! It was pretty quiet at night. Staff were friendly. The bistro served a terrific breakfast and was wonderful to have on site.
Nice place. Great stuff. Perfect location. Can’t sleep all night due to people snoring. Booked two night but checked out next day and booked a hotel in Calgary in order to have a good sleep
The location was perfect between Banff and Lake Louise. The cabin was cozy, especially with the fireplace. The staff was wonderful and the bikes were a bonus.
