The location of this property is ideal for a Banff vacation. The shops and restaurants of Canmore were within easy walking distance. The town of Banff was about 20 minutes, and Banff National Park was about thirty minutes to the big sights. 60 minutes to Lake Louise. The National Park Passes were a nice touch as well.
The listing stated air conditioning, but the a/c was actually mobile units that did not work very well and did not work at all in one of the bedrooms. We had the property maintenance guy out, but he was unable to make them work and basically told us this was what our fate was. It was a very hot week in Canmore, so that was unfortunate. The bedrooms were small when crammed with the furniture. It was nice to have a king size bed, but we only had about a foot of walking space around the bed and less where the mobile air conditioner was located. The exposed duct work from the mobile a/c units to the windows was less than desirable.
The dining room looks great in the photos, but again no room to walk around the table to get to any of the chairs, so that space became basically uncomfortable and unusable. That was okay because we went out to eat anyway, but if someone wanted to cook out, dining would not be comfortable.
The unit said two bathrooms, but only one had a shower. After six people shared a shower for a week,
it was time to go home. One toilet ran constantly and was never fixed in spite of asking.
The photographer was excellent for this listing
