THE HOSTS
My name is Robert and my wife is Martine. I came to the Rockies for a summer camp in 2000 and 2001. I immediately fell in love with the area. I took my wife on a road trip in 2004 and she had the same reaction. It took us 10 years to finally leave the province of Quebec and cross the country with our 3 young children to start a new life in Canmore. Since 2014, we call it home. We love to explore those mountains by foot. We’ve scrambled a few of them and are always looking for new peaks to explore. We now have a furry friend that follow us everywhere, Bernie. You can see him on some pictures. We’ve been sharing our passion for the mountain with our guest since 2015. It’s been an incredible journey that brought us to meet some amazing people.
We live in Canmore and can be reach 24/7. We provide recommendations and tips for our guest to get the best from their stay.

A rental agreement will be sent and needs to be agreed upon. This is just to be transparent about expectations in the condo prior to getting there.

Majestic Mountain Getaway
We stayed a full week at the Swan's Nest at the Grand Rockies Resort. Everything exceeded expectations. The location, surrounding views, ammenities and comfort of the condo were amazing. Our entire group gave our trip and accomodations 5 stars. The property manager was very helpful and always quick to respond to questions, etc. The pack and play and high chair were wonderful since we had a baby on the trip. We cooked several nights and found the kitchen and BBQ quite sufficient for all the family meals. The indoor pool on property and the private hot tub were a bonus. Coffee and restaraunts in easy walking distance. Trails everywhere for morning runs and taking walks at the end of the day. Very easy to drive to the National Parks as well as to Calgary (we had to pick up some family at the airport). We highly recommend the Swans Nest in Canmore!

Great location
We had a great stay in Canmore and were overall pleased with the unit. Can't beat the location, although road construction made entry challenging at times. Easy to walk to the town and many great nearby food and drink spots. The unit itself is very nice and we loved the kitchen and roof-top deck. Temperature control is difficult, especially in the third bedroom which is lacking a vent. Robert was helpful in trying to rectify this, but some improvements are needed. Parking was also a big plus. The complex itself is dated and needs cleaning. The fitness club is small and some equipment wasn't working. Overall, a great stay, but not sure if luxurious is the right term for this property.

Wonderful stay
This is a really nice penthouse unit in a lovely resort, with fantastic mountain views. Everything was very clean and the rooms were large and comfortable. The hot tub, shared indoor pool and onsite restaurant were nice added amenities. The only small issue we had were inaccurate access codes to the pool and trash. I would suggest updating those in the guest book. Otherwise a fantastic stay!

Beautiful condo with gorgeous view
We were so pleased with this property. We liked the location, it was close to restaurants, stores, hiking but wasn’t in the middle of town which we preferred. The condo was furnished nicely and had so many extras provided to fully function. The kitchen was well equipped and even included coffee, trash bags and so much more. We liked the coffee so much we went by the brewery to buy some to take home. The beds were comfortable and we had room for the 5 of us to spread out. The balcony allowed us to enjoy the beautiful Three Sisters Mountains. The bagel shop across the street was very tasty and convenient. I could go on and on about the condo and Canmore. We liked it much better than the town of Banff. It was much less crowded. Robert the property owner was very nice and responded quite quickly. I would highly recommend this property.

Adventure
Our stay in Canmore was incredible! The location was very close the the main part of town, within walking distance which made it very convenient to walk to the local shops and restaurants. The beauty of the town surrounded by mountains was breathtaking. There was plenty of sites to see and we also took a drive to lake Louise. Our accommodations were spacious, clean and well maintained. We had access to everything we needed. The online line photos and pictures are accurate. There was also a restaurant within the building that had excellent food. Plenty of local restaurants with high vibe clean eating foods to choose from. I would visit here again. Thank you to our host Robert for communicating everything we needed Renata I would recommend staying at this location

Amazing Stay in Canmore
This property was exactly as advertised. It is a big, luxurious, clean condo in Canmore. The check in process was easy, the owner was very responsive throughout the whole process and also they provided a guide book with information about the unit and the town. Canmore has a lot of restaurants and shops and is a short distance from Banff so this was the perfect place for my family to stay. The view from this condo is so beautiful and the hot tub looks directly out at the mountains. The bed I slept in was extremely comfortable and I had the best nights' sleep there. Highly recommend this place to others and hope to be back one day!

Modern, clean, very well appointed overall
This unit is amazing. Very clean, updated, modern, and well appointed. Comfortable beds. Two full living room areas with large TV's and plenty of seating. Well appointed kitchen, DEEP tub in the upstairs master. Just two things we didn't like. 1). We did not receive the lock code and sat in the hallway for 20 mins trying to get in touch with the owner due to his cell phone issues. He apologized and was very responsive moving forward. 2). The hot tub on the deck is clean, but very old and most of the jets don't work. Would definitely stay again.

Three Weeks at Swan's Nest
This is a very spacious unit in the Grande Rockies Resort complex for a three week stay. The resort facilities (pool and restaurant) were used often. The beds were very comfortable and the garage parking was very close to the elevator. The kitchen included all of the furnishings we needed for cooking / grilling. Robert was readily accessible whenever I had a question. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Property
This place is amazing, the photos do not do it justice. We had 4 adults and one teenager stay here for four nights an had a blast. There is lots of room to spread out and the kitchen and dining room are great place to spend the evening cooking and sharing a couple bottles of wine. The private hot tub was great for a soak after a day on the ski hill and even better views for morning coffee. The location is great as it is only about an 8 minute walk to downtown Canmore. We will be back for sure. Thanks

Stunning rental
STOP… Look no further than this rental!! This unit is exactly as shown in the listing, and then some. It felt so “Homey“ and truly an amazing first VRBO rental. If you want to step into not only a home but a piece of paradise, and feel like you’ve lived there for years, this is the one for you. My husband, three adult daughters and myself travelled to Canmore for a little R&R. We were in awe of this stunning spacious unit from our first step into Swans Nest, as it provided us with every possible amenity required. The views were spectacular, as was the roof top hot tub that was thoroughly enjoyed, especially at night under the stars. The beds were extremely comfortable, and my gosh the sheets were like crawling into a cloud at night!! We enjoyed a movie night cuddled up with all the extra throw blankets and pillows provided throughout, which again just made it feel like we were at home. When I was looking for a property to stay at I reached out to Robert & Martine with several inquiries, and had immediate answers to all!! They were amazing hosts prior to hosting us and throughout our stay. Robert checked in with us daily to ensure we didn’t need anything, and if we did in a blink of an eye the request was met. Thank you for hosting us, and any future trips to Canmore we will definitely be looking to stay at any one of Robert and Martines’ properties!! Karla, John and girls

If you want to step into a luxurious home, and feel like you’ve lived there for years, this is the one for you. We were in Canmore for some family time and R & R, and out of the 5 of us 4 were girls trying to get ready for our daily outings, but there was no shortage of bathrooms, mirrors, and space!! When we first opened the door we were impressed with everything…from the cleanliness, the space, the beds, those sheets (like what I believe sleeping on a cloud would feel like) the rooftop hot tub and ohhhhh those breathtaking views. Robert & Martine were amazing hosts right from the first communication, prior to even booking. Robert answered any and all questions in a speedy manner, and checked in daily to see if we required anything. Honestly, superior rental with an abundance of extras within!! Thank you for making us feel right at home!! We definitely highly recommend Swans Nest and hope to stay there again!! Karla, John and girls
