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.

It was a warm and inviting cottage. We saw 1 black bear on day 1 on the way to the cottage and a cub on day 2, just about a mile down the road from the cottage. We stayed in July and the weather was perfect for open windows day and night and there are plenty of windows. The property is well maintained. There were 4 of us and we had plenty of hot water for showers. It’s ideal for family travels.

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.

Great, enjoyable stay!

This was a very comfortable home to stay at and explore Jasper national park and surrounding areas. Check in was extremely easy and there was even a free pass for Jasper national park that allowed us to visit as much as we wanted without having to pay the park fee during our stay. Highly recommend!

About the host

Host profile image

We have owned this property since buying it from an aunt who was in the home most of her adult life.

Why they chose this property

By knowing the house and the area so well, when the house became available there was no question about buying the house as our vacation property. Only recently have we decided to share access to the house to others so they can appreciate it benefits.

What makes this property unique

Close to world renowned skiing, both downhill and cross country, the house has the benefit of full amenities, including a full kitchen and outside sitting, bbq and firepit areas. Perfect for families looking for lots of room and the ability to cook
