Great proximity - hiking, restaurants, shopping

We really enjoyed Canmore and this place was the perfect spot due to how close it was to town. It is a bit of a walk to get to Main Street but we were there to hike. 😁 Very close to a couple restaurants. Clean and cute rooms.

Girls trip to Banff

We had a wonderful stay at this cute condo in Canmore. We wanted to stay outside of Banff as we head Canmore was cheaper and less crowded and it did not disappoint! The location is perfect to walk to all the shops and restaurants and the condo had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property.

The condo was clean, well equipped and in a beautiful mountain location. The pool was a fun family gathering place after a day outside hiking. I would return to this condo if we are in the area.

Great property in a perfect location

We were visiting Alberta for a few days in the Banff area. The condo is at the entrance of Canmore and is a 5 minute walk to town. It's also close the highway and less than 30 minutes to all the areas of Banff that we wanted to visit. The property was comfortable and really nicely set up and came with a pass to visit the National park. We would definitely stay there again.

Clean and modern condo

We had a great stay at On the Rocks! The condo was bright, clean and modern. Amenities on the property were great, and there was ample parking for guests in the parkade. A reasonable walk from town centre, with lots of great spots to eat nearby. Check in process was easy and efficient, and communication from the hosts was excellent. I would highly recommend this place, and would definitely stay here again!

Review of stay

Just spent the last few days here. The condo inside is great! Clean, modern and bright. kitchen tools were well stocked. It was a convenient location to our travels. Check in and communication great. Unfortunately the unit smelled like an ashtray or pot or both. My guess is it was probably because of a neighboring unit -it smelled very bad ALL THE TIME. The unit was a long walk from the parking and outside in general. I felt a little trapped. Hot tub also a very long walk and always crowded. We were required to dump our own garbage in a non convenient far away location. Bathroom and pool towels (tiny) felt like sandpaper which I found funny as the owner was very concerned the towels not leave the unit. I can’t return because of the smell sadly.
