🍁Mountain Views, Swimming Pools, and LOTS more, we're accepting bookings!

My name is Kai, and I'm a world traveler and explorer. I spend my days doing things which I feel interesting and valuable, and my nights renting my hotel units out :-)

My motto is "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be," and I try to make the choice to be happy each day. As your AirBNB host, I'll try my best to point you towards the fun, cool and "must-see" attractions in the places which I have properties. I'm always a phone call away if you need some guidance or help!

Located 15 minutes from Banff, and approximately one hour from Calgary, this home away from home comes with a fully equipped kitchen and a lovely covered patio with BBQ and seating to enjoy the mountain air. The entire apartment is kept clean using only eco-friendly cleaning products (no nasty chemicals here!). An umbrella and rain coats are available should you need them.

The apartment is best suited for couples, but there is extra accommodation for two in the comfy sofa bed if you need it. The two hot tubs are a welcome place to revive sore muscles after a day of adventure, and if you want to work off dinner, there is a small but functional gym in the building. Can't be bothered walking to town? There's a fabulous Asian-fusion restaurant on the ground floor!

Canmore offers loads of opportunities for the adventurous and serene alike. Hike, bike, climb, ski, white water raft or canoe, and when you need a little downtime, settle with a picnic blanket and a book in a park besides the river in summer, or cozy up in front of the fire in winter.

Here are some information that might be helpful to you:

1. ski rental places:
The following store is relatively cheaper and close to your chalet.
You can always rent ski gear at the ski resorts with higher price. The price does not include Helmets. It will cost 5 to 7 Canadian dollars each. Bring your own Helmet and mask if possible.
