Love this place. It has something for everyone. House was huge the great entertainment area dining room living room were a great place to hang out. Lots of bedrooms,slept way more people than we could fit. The yard had something for everyone shade, fire pit ,lots of areas to run and play games, sunshine, and it was very private. Kitchen had everything you would need to plan a great meal. Beds are comfy and the house overall has great charm. It's an old place and it has great character.

Our 3rd time at the lodge, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return. Definitely the most unique, quirky, and well equipped rental we’ve ever used. We’ll be back…

Our children love staying in the comfort of hotels but this time, the boss (my Wife) needed a place to stay that has more than its amenities. As we entered the property, the smell of wooden walls and floors greeted us. The overall vibe was cabinlike but the space was generous for five people and more. We had the old Manager's house all to ourselves. There was a dedicated living room, dining and kitchen, with a great stove and library, which we spent majority of our time during our stay. It was a rich man's place for everyday people like us. Cleanliness and upkeep wasn't an issue but definitely could be improved. We got our money's worth and would 100% return next year Godwilling if ever we visit the area again as it is close to a lot of creeks, lakes and hiking trails. Aah, for sure, a home away from home.

The location was great! Loved the house and retro vibe. Great experience! It felt like being in an home and not a shell. Great overall!

We only used the place to sleep and have a quick meal each night but it was a great place and close to town where we needed to be.

My wife and I had an amazing time at this property, it’s way bigger than the pictures show. It definitely has an old school lodge feel to it with tons of charm. It’s also located in a perfect spot if you’re looking to explore the area. We absolutely loved this place and would recommend it!!!

My dear friends and I, four in total, had an absolutely wonderful stay for three nights. The beds were comfortable and bedrooms well laid out, and certainly appreciated the two bathrooms. Paula responded quickly whenever we had questions, although we were provided with all the information prior to our stay and the expectations for our departure. We were totally engrossed by the history this home holds, and all the artwork throughout. The kitchen was fully equipped and modern, but we choose to eat out at some of the local restaurants. We would definitely book again, and look forward to our next stay, it was a much needed retreat for all of us.

We have enjoyed both our stays at the lodge. The location is great for fishing and exploring around the Crowsnest area. Even though the barbecue was out of commission, the hosts provided an alternative griddle which worked well. We truly appreciate the amenities at the lodge and locale. Would recommend the lodge to anyone!

A very well equipped property for 4 guys on a fishing trip

We love staying at this "grand" historic home. It has everything we need to relax and make ourselves at home with a large kitchen and so many games and books and an awesome fireplace. The location is great for exploring the Crowsnest Pass.

Paula and Rob were so welcoming and their place was a retro getaway with everything we needed. Big yard, gorgeous views and a cozy interior allowed our group to spread out and then come together as needed. They have this place packed with everything you would need in the kitchen. Very hospitable and responsive.

This is unique and lovely property and a perfect place to make a home base while enjoying some activities in the Crowsnest Pass. We skied at Castle which was about 35 minutes away and did some cross-country skiing at Chinook Recreation area which is about 20 minutes away. The house has everything you need if you like to cook and chill out after a day outdoors. Great wifi, lots of games and even access to Netflix. The house is quite spacious, comfortable and has tons of character.

This one of a kind historical property is amazing. The fireplace in the great room, the big windows looking out on the mountains, the claw foot tub from the 1920s, and so many cool bunk beds for kids. All the amenities you’ll ever need for a relaxing stay. Tons of games and books and antique oddities to check out. Paula is super responsive and helpful.

We had a lovely girls weekend at Larkspur Lodge. We really enjoyed reading and learning about the history of the house as well! A super cool property with lots of space for us to spread out.

A house with lots of space, character and gathering room, very well stocked. Good for a large family. Information needed provided very well by host.

My family and I booked a long weekend stay and had a fantastic, memorable time, everything about the house itself was amazing, such a wonderful history, lots of space for everyone who stayed, yet still so cozy, great scenery surrounding us in every direction, this house and get away totally exceeded our expectations...we hope to make a return visit in the very near future.

The lodge was perfect for a group of friends to get together

Second time renting this property. Came back because of excellent quality the first time. Close enough to Calgary International Airport to drive to in short amount of time. Close to all the activities we enjoy (specifically hiking and other sites). Household amenities are complete and especially the sleeping space. Love the qietness as well.

Really interesting and unique property. LARGE rooms - living room, dining room, bedrooms. Isolated, quiet and scenic location. We really enjoyed out long weekend there.

Many wonderful amenities! Highly recommend! Host was very prompt in replying to any questions. A very positive experience!

We stayed here with my family in July. The house and yard are absolutely beautiful and have every amenity you would need. We loved the historical charm of the home and it is a short drive to many activities in the Crowsnest Pass. The town of Hillcrest is quiet and relaxing. Would return again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful house, well stocked with activities and kitchen. We enjoyed the fire pit.

Lots of room for our large family in a beautiful setting. All we needed was provided. Thanks!

Great spot for a quiet family vacation. Home is fully equipped with everything you need. This is a heritage home, so we considered it similar to cabin camping, but with all the amenities-no need to bring bedding! There is even a ball diamond just down the road. We highly recommend the Coal Mine tour and the Frank Slide Interpretive Centre. Thanks Paula!

A group of Friends and family stayed at the Larkspur Lodge for Sinister race weekend. Having so much space was awesome - each group had their own room with lots of common space when needed. Lodge is very well equipped, with a great view out the back towards Turtle Mountain. Would definitely recommend this location to anyone in the area.

This was a cute, old house that had everything you need. Plenty of space, extra large back yard and plenty of games.
