About this property

Self Contained Mountain Escape in Jasper Alberta Area

Located in the hamlet of Brule, a one hour drive to the Jasper townsite and close to many of the Jasper area sights and outdoor activities, this house is perfect for those wanting to bask in the quiet serene nature of the mountains, for hikers, skiers and thrill seekers. The house is a short walk to the park boundary, and a 15 minute drive to the eastern Jasper National Park gate. The location has it all. Everything was made new 5 years ago. The main floor is fully renovated and there are two extra bedrooms downstairs in the partially renovated basement. It has every modern convenience, and can sleep up to 6 people comfortably. Large windows to maximize the view of the mountains and the park across the street and as an added bonus the filtered water comes right off the mountain with a taste that can't compare. Completing the convenience found on the inside of the house are 3 sitting areas on the outside. A large deck on the back, a covered patio on the side, and a veranda on the front complete the experience. For those that want to stay connected, the house includes 3 large TVs, two with satellite.

Quiet house in the mountains. Playground for kids right across the street - so great if you have kids. Hiking trails nearby. If you want relaxation away from everything - this is your place. Kitchen is well equipped with cookware, which was very nice.

Brule mountain getaway

This was a perfect location for us. We had a wedding reception across the street. The bride lives around the corner. Park across the road for 3 yr old to play in. 4 bedrooms for 6 adults and a child. Hinton is only a 20-25 minute drive if you want groceries or dinner. The mountain view is spectacular

Little Gem Away From it All

We really enjoyed our stay in Brule. Initially we weren’t sure because it is quite far away from everything but the tiny little town has a lot of charm. The main floor of the house has been updated and had all the amenities we needed. The kitchen was very well equipped. The basement is quite “rustic” and smelled a bit mildewy but my teens didn’t mind. The Jasper park pass was a bonus we weren’t expecting. We would stay here again.

Sehr schönes Haus perfekt für unsere Gruppe.Auch zum Wandern oder mit dem Auto einen Ausflug zu machen war es perfekt. Eine extra Toilette oder ein zweites Badezimmer wäre bei uns 6 Leuten auch nicht schlecht gewesen.

This was a nice house with 4 bedrooms, so our group was able to spread out well. The kitchen was well appointed, with everything we needed to cook meals. The owners was available to communicate with, but didn’t have a very good answer to the missing cable boxes. The cable was non-existent, it was an hour’s drive north of Jasper, and anyone over 5’6” should watch their head going down the stairs to the two bedrooms in the basement. The view from the hill before you get to Brule is amazing!
View from hill just north of Brule. Interesting history.

Pros and cons

The house was renovated but the two bedrooms in the basement were musty. Only one bathroom which was difficult when you have a larger group. We were there for a wedding and the house was very close to the hall. Very beautiful area.

Nice house, but a bit too far from Jasper

The house was cozy and the owner was very friendly and helpful. We had a bit of trouble finding the lock box because it was on a door inside an enclosed porch on the side of the house. Two of the four bedrooms are in the basement, which kids would probably love, but our group was all adults and nobody really wanted the basement since the only bathroom was on the main floor. The kitchen was nice and well-equipped and grocery stores were about 15 minutes away. Based on the description, I thought the house was a bit closer to Jasper; however, took an hour to get to the national park, which meant we spent an extra 2 hours driving every day. We enjoyed all of the beautiful scenery in the area and the house met our needs.

This is a beautiful community and a peaceful space. Shopping is accessible to stock up with groceries. Wonderful option for group or family to enjoy the natural surroundings. Jasper is a reasonable drive away. Owner is friendly and happy to share history of the area and help with any questions or concerns. I will stay again.

Perfect stay in Jaspar

Property was well kept and clean. The owner was responsie when there was an issue with the keys and my own misunderstanding on enclosed porches. House ad nore than enough room for our family of four and the park across the street was ideal for kids. We saw a bobcat and deer right near the home too.

A Great Basecamp for Jasper!

This house was just what we needed. It’s 30 minutes from the Banff gate and 1 hr to jasper town. There is one of the best playgrounds imaginable immediately across the street, and our kids thoroughly enjoyed it. The house is in the town of brule, which is tiny with no resources so get groceries and gas on the way there - a number of stores and gas stations are located 20 mins away (on the way to the park) in the town of Hinton. The house itself was clean, well maintained, with descent kitchen supplies, working internet, and comfortable beds. It’s a straightforward house rental, again, exactly what we needed. A little art work on the walls would go a long way. We would stay here again.
