About this property

Leave your cares behind and come adventure in the Rocky Mountains. Book today!

This beautiful timber frame cabin is the ultimate mountain getaway offering incredible tranquility and the unique feeling of being immersed in nature. The cabin (1800 ft2) is modernly appointed with 4 bedrooms including a master loft and 2 full bathrooms including a large soaker tub. Enjoy cooking and dining in a fully equipped kitchen with a gas range and dining that seats 6-8 comfortably.

Vaulted ceilings and a wood fireplace make for cozy comfort in the living room. Or, enjoy a movie and entertainment in the media room located in the fully developed basement. Just outside the door is a large covered vaulted deck with a gas BBQ and outdoor dining area that open up to a year round outdoor fire pit. An office space and wireless internet are available if remote work is a part of your holiday.

Surrounded by wilderness on all sides and walking distance to the Blaeberry River, nature is just outside the door. Hiking trails abound including easy riverside walks to full mountain scrambles. During the summer months, the river offers opportunity for canoeing and river rafting. In the winter, enjoy the boundless snowshoe terrain, skier track-set cross-country ski trails or snowmobiling on nearby crown land.

The town of Golden is a 20 minute drive away offering additional recreation including skiing, whitewater rafting, and paragliding. Looking for epic skiing and riding? Kicking Horse Resort and its legendary powder are just 25 minutes away. For cross-country ski lovers, Dawn Mountain has over 30 kilometres of groomed trails ranging from beginner to advanced. Golden and area boast 5 National Parks nearby for ample adventure. This is a true Canadian Rockies experience.

Great for a Ski Vacation

We stayed here for a backcountry ski vacation. A good quiet place out of town. On the way to Roger’s pass, and not too far of a drive to the Icefields. The property was well equipped and Barb was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We would return to this property.

Cabin off the beaten path

Great cabin off the beaten path. The host was great and the property is beautiful. It is a bit of a drive to certain locations, but if you like being out in nature and not surrounded by lots of people, you’ll love this. House was clean and we enjoyed our stay.

The cabin in the woods

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this beautiful cabin in the woods and Barb was the ultimate host, recommending things to do and places to visit. Our family felt so comfortable and cosy in this special home away from home and would love to return one day.

Beautiful Getaway

Loved EVERYTHING about this place. It's fairly remote and allows you to just reconnect to nature. The outdoor patio was a dream, along with the lights and grill. The kitchen was well stocked. I'd absolutely stay here again.

Home Base for Rogers Pass Ski Trip

A group of four of us rented this house for a ski trip in nearby Rogers Pass. This was a great house for a group of our four. Spacious, yet still cozy with everything you need for a mountain stay, including a wood stove, back deck and mountain views. Barb was a great host who was easy to contact and super helpful. We would stay here again!

Pleasant remote cabin

This is a nice well maintained lodge in a beautiful albeit remote location. The kitchen is well equipped and the house is thoughtfully furnished and decorated. The one thing that my family sorely missed was a washer/dryer. I think that for a house of this size in a remote location, a laundry would be a much needed addition.

Perfect Escape

In the chaos of life and uncertainty of people, these days, this place was the perfect escape from it all. It was peaceful, remote, but still within 20 minutes of civilization. It was the perfect reset, reconnect and beautifully put together place. Barb was amazing, the cabin was wonderfully equipped with enough necessities for our guys weekend. Amazing.

Peaceful Getaway

Barb's place is amazing! Easily accommodates 4 snorers so we can't hear each other. Beautiful backyard for campfires, sun tanning, yoga, etc. Lots to do in the area. Golden is a beautiful town with a nice brewery. There is a 13km round trip hike to a waterfall with lots to see along the way. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Amazing attention to detail

Barb is fabulous! She is thoughtful in her communication with guests and has literally thought of everything. There is signage all throughout the cabin that helps guests make the most out of their stay. The decor is spectacular and makes you feel right at home. Our kiddos settled in instantly and even they had more they needed to stay entertained all week long. When we weren’t revelling in the splendour of the cabin, our family enjoyed the area based on all of Barb’s recommendations. From river rock collecting, bison ranch touring, mountain lake swimming, everyday was an adventure. In the early mornings, I even took a few mom moments and enjoyed my book in peace in the garden sitting area. It inspired me to take that feeling of tranquility home. On our first day, a bear ventured onto the property. With Barb’s warning, we knew we were in bear country and were able to scare it away for the whole week. Thank you Barb for a wonderful experience - we miss the cabin so much already! Count us in for future stays in the area - your piece of paradise is a must choice!

Feel like a home away from home

Very quiet and peaceful property to enjoy away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Friendly and very interactive host. Easy to get hold and communicate with her. Definitely consider staying here again. Just missed a tower fan in the living area during the stay as it was too hot during our stay otherwise it was a wonderful experience.

Getaway in the mountains

Spacious cabin in the mountains close to Blaeberry river. Nice backyard with fire place. We had an awesome time here, nothing was missing. Golden is the next town about 20 minutes away. Gravel road, so high clearance car is recommended but not a must have. Depends on the time of the year. Barb was a nice host looking after us.

Perfect cabin and property for a family vacation. Cabin is well equipped and spacious. The yard is lovely with lots of room for the kids to play. We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck and relaxing on the deck in the sunshine in the late afternoons following a day of exploring. Lots to explore and do in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Barb Davies

Host profile image
I love the beauty and natural landscape Golden has to offer. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast that can't seem to get enough of the great outdoors! I can often be found out on my cross country skis. Or in the summer months I'll be out for a run, enjoying a hike or soaking in beauty of the Blaeberry River. In my work life I share my passion for health and wellness with others. I can often be found perusing the shelves of a local health store, sourcing local food, or puttering in my kitchen making delicious food with a glass of wine in hand! I hope you enjoy this mountain retreat as much as we do.
