“What stands out is its remarkable location between Banff and Jasper, making it a practical stop for exploring the Icefields Parkway. While somewhat remote-and running on its own generator-it now offers Wi-Fi in common areas, and the views are undeniably spectacular. I see this as a solid, if rustic, choice for those prioritizing location and access to hiking.”
