About this property

2 Bedroom Chalet between Canmore & Banff (sleeps 7 (up to 6 Adults and 1 Child))

Located just outside of the Town of Canmore you get the peace and tranquility of being outside of town and the convenience of being only a 4 minute drive into Canmore or 12 minutes to Banff. This townhouse is ideally located with the balcony and living room facing Mount Rundle and the back door facing a treed sitting & BBQ area. The entire townhouse is fully renovated and awaits your visit to explore the vast trail system right out the back door. If skiing is your thing Norquay is a 12 minute drive, Sunshine is 28 minutes and Lake Louise is 55 minutes. There are also endless x-country trails out the back door or at the world famous Canmore Nordic Centre. Pets considered(please contact us for details)

The space
This majestic townhouse is 800 sq feet and is beautifully renovated with a private entrance and back yard with firepit and BBQ. The view of the mountains out of the master bedroom and main floor living room is unparalleled. We use this place often so have done many upgrades that rental-only places don't get:

-Brand new Endy Beds
-55" Smart TV in the living room and 43" smart TV in the master bedroom (both equipped with full cable TV, Netflix and Prime).
-There are excellent quality knife sets, cooking utensils, a crock-pot, wok, coffee, tea, sugar, oil, salt and pepper etc.
-Touchless soap dispensers.
-There is a Keurig coffee maker in the master bedroom so you can sip on some java while watching the morning sun hit Mount Rundle.
-Brand new appliances.
-In-floor heating to warm your feet on the main floor and a gas fireplaces surrounded by river rock.
-A cabinet stocked with games to entertain you in the evening.
-A BBQ and firepit in the back for cooking and relaxing (propane is supplied for the BBQ's).
-If you want to work from the mountains instead of the city, we have a dedicated Shaw high speed internet connection.
-We even have a Kryptonite lock in the back to lock up you bikes (the trails right from the complex are amazing).
-A ski closet at the front door or keep them in/on your vehicle in the safely lit parking lot.

Why should you book here?
1 - Close proximity to both Canmore (4 minute drive) and Banff (12 minute drive)
2 - We supply a National Park Pass for you to use
3 - You get two bedrooms with air conditioning and a fully stocked kitchen
4 - We are right on the "Legacy Trail" which you can bike right to Banff from our front door.
5 - Hundreds of KM's of hiking, skiing, biking trails right out the front door.
6 - Close to all major ski resorts (Norquay, Sunshine, Lake Louise or even Kicking Horse)
6 - Beautifully situated the farthest from the highway (no road noise) with a picturesque view of Mount Rundle and a back yard with a firepit and BBQ.

It's all about the details and we've tried to think of everything. So why wouldn't you want to stay here ;-)

Note: This unit comfortably sleeps up to 6 adults and 1 kid/teen (the bunk isn't ideal for adults).

Guest access
You will have access to the entire townhouse with a private entrance and a shared back yard with BBQ's, a firepit and seating.

Beds: We often get questions on the bed situation. There are two bedrooms upstairs. Each has a queen bed and one also has a Twin XL on an upper bunk (best for kids or teens as you have to climb a ladder which is rated for under 150lbs). The bunk is a full twin XL (36x80") bed. Full bathroom upstairs. On the main floor there is a queen pullout couch and another full bathroom.

Please feel free to send us a message if you need any more information.

Thanks!

Loved this place! I wish we could have stayed longer. It had everything we needed, even my teenagers were comfortable! We really enjoyed after a day of exploring to cook a nice meal, put our feet up, turn on the fireplace and look out at the mountain rage. We would definitely return!

My favorite place to stay
When I go to Canmore, I don't want to stay anywhere else. It's a beautiful place, with excellent hosts. I always feel like I am coming home when I come to this area, and my stay at the chalet is a part of that. Thank you, we will come again and again

Banff NP hub
Great location, close to Banff national park! It’s also only 15 min away from downtown Banff. Word of warning make sure you have the park pass visible in your car even in downtown Banff or you will get a warning. Super helpful they had a pass for you to use! Do yourself a favor and hike to the Lake Agnes Tea House or the Plain of six glacier tea house in Banff, you won’t regret it.

The check-in procedures were well thought out and easy. Communication of what to expect and our responsibilities were clear. Definitely would stay there again and recommend it to anyone, especially if you want a family vacation.

Great!!!^3
Everything was as it was advertised. The owner is very responsive and communicative about the property and management. For instance; we arrived a tad (like 2 hours) early and didn’t expect that the condo would be ready and it was not. No problem. I actually got an email from the owner stating clean up was a bit delayed and apologized without me having to make mention of it first. All else. The place is outfitted well, comes with a family group parks pass (don’t buy one ahead of time like I did). Great views, comfortable enough bed and everything seemed to work. We would definitely stay here again. OH! And the price was perfect. The location is great too Just outside of the park entrance and down the road from Canmore where there are excellent grocery stores and restaurants and hiking.

Easy drive to Canmore, Banff, sunshine village
Great location if you have a car to visit, ski, hike. Very clean and has two full bathrooms. Feels like a home away from home. Owners thought of everything to make you feel at home including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap in neat dispensers rather than mini bottles. Climate controls are excellent and easily set at your own preferred temperatures ( not like hotels which are often to stuffy and you need to run a noisy AC to cool the place down to have a decent sleep). I love that they provide a Banff park pass and is one of the reasons we chose this place. I highly recommend this place. We had a wonderful time.

First time with dogs, and no regrets!
It was our first time even using Vrbo, and we were specifically looking for a mountain getaway for our dogs. We planned ahead and booked in advance but it was so difficult to find anyone that would allow dogs over 30lbs into a unit. This place popped up and I contacted the owners and they were more than happy to accommodate with a few simple but understandable rules. This location was incredible being so close to Canmore and Banff, but without the constant hustle and bustle and allowed us to relax and let the dogs just roam all around the forest next door. We unfortunately had some awful weather roll in the days we were there but we had made the most of it all, and went into the towns as we needed for a few brisk walks and great meals. Then it was back to the rental and sit around the fireplace. With or without dogs this is a great place to stay and really well maintained!

Lovely property - appreciate its quiet after 10pm
Lovely property and so convenient to Banff and Canmore. For the price in tourist season it’s reasonable except for the additional cleaning fee. For what footprint my dad and I left behind a 95$ fee was excessive.

Fantastic stay!
The chalet is in a very convenient location between Canmore and Banff (approx 15-20 min drive to Banff). The master bedroom has a nice mountain view. The place is well-maintained and the owners were very responsive throughout our stay. We hope to come back to Banff sometime in the future and would definitely stay again here if it is available. Thanks Laun and Moe!

About the host

Hosted by Laun and Moe Saunders

Host profile image
We have grown up around the mountains and love them more each year. Canmore and Banff have endless things to do and provide such a diverse area for adventure. We live in Calgary but spend most of our time in the mountains. It's where we call home. We ski at Sunshine Village and Lake Louise in the winter and mountain bike/hike all over in the spring, summer and fall.

Why they chose this property

Harvie Heights is an ideal location. 4 minutes to Canmore and 12 minutes to Banff. The best part is that you aren't in those busy towns so it's quiet, dark and you have hundreds of km's of trails to explore right out of the back door. The location is unparalleled with a view of Mount Rundle to top it off. Stunning. We've updated every part of the condo to make it an ideal location for long or short stays.

What makes this property unique

Proximity to Banff and Canmore is ideal. Trail system to walk dogs, cross country ski, drive to a resort, mountain bike, hike or just enjoy the peace and quiet. It's perfect.
